Sechs köstliche Tractat armen und reychen nutzlich und notwendig von wasserbädern . Mit fleyß und müe Doctor Adams von Bodenstein zu einem guten neuwen Jar publicirt. Die "Grosse Wundartzney" gehört zu den einflussreichsten chirurgischen Schriften der frühen Neuzeit und markiert einen Wendepunkt in der praktischen Wundbehandlung in der Ablehnung scholastischer Autoritäten und in der Hinwendung zu einer erfahrungsbasierten am Krankenbett gewonnenen Chirurgie. Der Frankfurter Druck von 1562 bietet in drei Teilen Paracelsus' Lehre von Wunden Schussverletzungen Brandwunden Knochenbrüchen Geschwülsten und anderen chirurgischen Erkrankungen dazu die ausführliche Abhandlung zur "Frantzosischen Kranckheit" Syphilis. Bei der vorliegenden Ausgabe handelt es sich um einen Nachdruck der zweibändigen "Grossen Wundartzney" nach der Augsburger Ausgabe von 1537. Den dritten Teil bildet die Schrift "Von der frantzosischen Kranckheit"; hierfür nutzten Weygand Han und Georg Raben den Nachdruck von 1553 als Vorlage und übernahmen Dessen Druckbogen aus dem Nachlass des Frankfurter Druckers Heinrich Gulfferich für einen Teil der Auflage sogar unverändert. Das angebundene "Baderbüchlin" in der Bearbeitung durch Adam von Bodenstein ist eine eigenständige sehr seltene Publikation über Wasser und Mineralbäder die Paracelsus' balneologische Vorstellungen popularisiert. In sechs "köstlichen Traktaten" richtet sich die Schrift ausdrücklich an "arme und reiche" um den Nutzen der Bäder für Prävention und Therapie verschiedenster Leiden darzulegen. Der Druck bei Peter Schmid in Mühlhausen im oberen Elsass ebenfalls 1562 steht in enger zeitlicher und inhaltlicher Nachbarschaft zur Wundartzney und ergänzt diese ideal um den Bereich der Badetherapie. Die Kombination von vollständiger Frankfurter Wundartzney alle drei Teile und dem zeitgleichen Mühlhauser Baderbüchlin in einem prachtvollen zeitgenössischen Schweinsledereinband mit Schnallen ist äußerst selten.

Usually attributed to Aristotle it is now thought to be the work of the peripatetic scholar and pupil of Aristotle Theophrastus.''As the author states at the end of the treatise it is intended rather to supply data for a detailed examination into the scientific theory of colour than to expound a complete thesis. He has realized that the development of colour in animals and plants depends to some extent on heat and he seems to suggest that heat and moisture are the controlling factors. It is of more value as a collection of observed facts than for any theory of the origin and development of colour in physical life'' Aristotle Minor Works Cambridge and London Loeb Classical Library 1936 p. 3.With some spotting on the title-page and some marginal tears not approaching the text but otherwise in very good condition and with large margins.

164450986Amsterdam Heinric Laurentius 1644. Folio. Contemporary full vellum with neat later 19th century rebacking. Six raised bands and gilt title to spine. Some wear to extremities. Internally a fresh and clean copy with only a bit of occasional brownspotting. Endpapers with a bit of soiling. 2 bookplates to inside of front board: Gilbert Redgrave London dated 1894 & Gorden M. Jones Virginia. Text in Greek and Latin. Woodcut title-page numerous woodcut intials throughout and more than 600 woodcut illustrations in the text. 20 1187 1 88 - Index pp. First edition thus being the most important and influential edition of Theophrastus' seminal work "Enquiry into Plants" - the first systematization of the botanical world and the most important contribution to botanical science up until the Renaissance. Bodaeus von Stapel's groundbreaking edition constitutes the first illustrated edition of Theophrastus' masterpiece as well as the first with both Greek and Latin text. Furthermore von Stapel has not only collected all relevant commentaries and knowledge he has also added corrections and much foundational information turning the work into one of the most influential botanical works of the 17th century profoundly influencing the likes of Linnaeus and contributing significantly to the development of modern scientific botany. "This edition displays great care and research; the notes are numerous and learned and all botanical information to be gleaned from Aristotle Pliny Dioscorides and other ancient writers seems to be embodied in this work. The Greek text is Heinsius's; the Latin version is that of the editor who has placed Gaza's in the margin with frequent corrections. The conjectures of Scaliger Constantine and Salmasius are also incorporated. it has collected into one body the opinions of the old writers on the subject of the PLANTS. It contains some wood-cuts of the rarer species which are much better uncoloured than coloured." Dibdin II:498. The numerous woodcut plant illustrations were partly copied from other sources and partly made especially for this edition. Thus apart from being "one of the best and most thoughtfully prepared of all the editions of Theophrastos" Hunt our editor has also made original contributions that are of great importance. "It is interesting not only because of the brilliance of the editing but curiously enough to the American botanist as well for involving in the discussion certain species from Virginia other parts of the New World and Asia. The illustrations of these plants have been largely overlooked in botanical history because of their incidental presence in a work which might not be expected to contain anything of the sort. Some were merely borrowed from l'Ecluse or de Lobel but others seem original in this work" H.H. Bartlett: Fifty-five Rare Books - quoted by Hunt.At the height of the Renaissance with the expansion of the known world and the spreading of the book due to the invention of the printing press many new publications on plants appeared. Most of these publications however were primarily concerned with the medicinal qualities of individual plants and only few authors or editors took an interest in the general nature of the plants and how they could systematically be classified. One of the few exceptions was Bodaeus von Stapel. With his seminal 1644 edition of "Historia Plantarum" he focused on the overarching classification system of plants and took Theophrastus' work a step further adding essential commentaries and illustrations - illustrations that were to be copied for centuries after. These illustrations remain the standard illustrations of Theophrastus' foundational work. This edition of Theophrastus' "Historia Plantarum" became the standard edition of that earliest work on systematic botany and the edition that all serious scientific botanists of the 17th and 18th centuries will have studied. "Linnaeus in the practice of his favourite art of systematizing classified not only plants but the writers about them. The writers he distinguishes primarily as Botanists and Plant Lovers recognizing as Botanists only such as treat of plants from some philosophic or scientific point of view. Choosing his illustrations from annals of remote antiquity he names among the earliest of the Greeks who wrote of plants Hippocrates; but because he wrote of plants only in the interests of medicine Linnaeus styles him Father of Medicine. Similarly Aristotle. is down in the Linnaean list of ancient celebrities as Prince of Philosophers. To Theophrastus however he accords the title Father of Botany. From this opinion far from having been newly promulgated in Linnaeus's time there has been no dissenting voice. On the contrary Albert Haller one of the most learned men in Europe in his day and a botanist of such renown that Linnaeus held him in reverence and also in some fear denominates Theophrastus "the first of real botanists in point of time." Kurt Sprengel in the nineteenth century having rehearsed the names of a long line of ancient authors who had written more or less concerning plants says: "But the most illustrious of them all and the true father of botany was Theophrastus Eresius…." Greene Landmarks of Botanical History I:128.It is no wonder that Linnaeus should find in Theophrastus the Father of his own field - The "Historia Plantarum" was not only the earliest work on systematic botany it also contained Theophrastus' description of the formation of the plant seed the earliest account known and the best that was made for 2000 years.Hunt: 240; Pritzel: 9197; BM: V:2091; Dibdin: II:498. hardcover

Jh. humanistischer Übersetzer paracelsischer Schriften sowie die kürzere "Chirurgia minor" "Bertheonea" in der lateinischen Fassung des flämischen Arztes Alchemisten und Paracelsisten Gerhardus Dorn ca. 1530-ca. 1584. - Gedruckt von dem aus Lucca stammenden seit den 1540er-Jahren in Basel tätigen Humanisten- und Reformationsverleger Petrus Perna ca. 1519-1582. Die Chirurgia magna ist das zentrale chirurgische Werk Paracelsus' und dokumentiert seine praktische Wundarznei ebenso wie seine Reinterpretation traditioneller Krankheitslehren. In ihr treten seine Abkehr von der bloßen Galen Exegese sein empirisches Vorgehen am Krankenbett und sein Einsatz chemischer Präparate deutlich hervor; sie ist für das Verständnis der paracelsischen "Reformation der Medizin" unverzichtbar. Paracelsus betont systematisch die Bedeutung gründlicher Wundreinigung Drainage und Verhinderung von Fäulnis; die "gute Eiterung" der traditionellen Chirurgie wird kritisch relativiert und der Fokus stärker auf rasche "spezifische" Heilung gerichtet. Er beschreibt Trauma Frakturen Ulzera und Tumoren in enger Verbindung mit Umwelt und Stoffeinflüssen; damit wird die spätere Toxikologie vorbereitet Stichwort "Die Dosis macht das Gift" und eine spezifische substanzgebundene Krankheitsauffassung gefördert. Von besonderem Interesse auch für die frühe Geschichte der Neurochirurgie: Paracelsus behandelt in der Chirurgia magna Kopf- und Schädelverletzungen inkl. Indikationen zur Trepanation im Rahmen einer empirisch orientierten Wundchirurgie und verknüpft traumabedingte Lähmungen und Krampfzustände mit lokalen Strukturverletzungen statt ausschließlich mit humoral-systemischen Ursachen. Die Chirurgia minor ist der Teil des paracelsischen chirurgischen Werkes der am ehesten dem späteren Feld der Dermato-chirurgie und der frühen plastisch-rekonstruktiven Bemühungen entspricht - durch ihren Fokus auf Haut Weichteile Wunden Verbrennungen und Narbenführung immer vor dem Hintergrund von Paracelsus' chymischer Pathologie und spezifischer Arzneitherapie. Die Perna-Ausgabe von 1573 ist die erste große lateinische Gesamtausgabe der paracelsischen Chirurgie: Sie überführt die ursprünglich deutschsprachigen Wundarznei-Schriften Große und Kleine Chirurgie in ein gelehrtes europaweit rezipierbares Format und ist damit ein Schlüsselstück der frühen Paracelsus-Rezeption. Chirurgiegeschichtlich markiert der Band den Übergang von handwerklich-zunftgebundener Wundbehandlung zu einer spezifischen substanzgebundenen Therapieauffassung Toxikologie organspezifische Wirkungen Kritik an der "guten Eiterung" und ist für die Geschichte der Chirurgie wie der Pharmakologie gleichermaßen bedeutend. First major Latin edition of Paracelsus' surgical works containing the two tomes of the "Chirurgia magna" and the shorter "Chirurgia minor" in one folio volume. Translated into Latin by Josquinus Dalhemius and Gerard Dorn and printed by the Basel humanist printer Petrus Perna in 1573. Covers wounds fractures ulcers tumours and related conditions combining practical wound surgery with Paracelsus' innovative chymical pathology.

PARACELSUS, or Theophrastus Bombastus von HohenheimBiblio.com

FIRST EDITION OF THE FIRST TREATISE ON THE PLAGUE BY PARACELSUS â€œTHE LUTHER OF MEDICINEâ€ Zwey BÃ¼cher â€¦ von der Pestilentz und ihren ZufÃ¤llen

156460128vo. 112 ff pages 2 and 110-112 are blank. Bound in modern paneled calf with gilt-stamped fleurons on front and back covers raised bands. Generally good. The first edition of this plague treatise by Paracelsus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim 1493-1541 the "Luther of Medicine" and one of the key figures in the history of medicine. Written originally in Nördlingen in 1529-1530 it remained unpublished during Paracelsus' lifetime and subsequently taken up and edited for publication by the Paracelsian scholar Adam von Bodenstein 1528-1577. The latter dedicated it to Johann Rudolph Stör von Störenberg Abbot of Murbach and Luders. In addition to the study on pestilence the text includes two short works by Paracelsus: "Vom Preservatiff durch den Schwebel" and "Von der Mummia."In the primary tract Paracelsus for the first time presents his complex theory on the origins of the plague which he believed were the result of astrological and corporeal events set in motion by human sins. "This anthropocentric view of an individual disease is in harmony with Paracelsus' whole philosophy and indeed with Renaissance philosophy in general" Pagel p. 179. Paracelsus also postulates the importance of the principle of sulphur the corresponding agent of the planet Mars in pestilence's causation. He believed that sulphur hidden in three minerals—antimony arsenic and marcasite—affected three corresponding organs: the groin the axillae and the ears.The chapters on causation are followed by sections on remedies. The doctor must cure the agent causing the disease rather than the symptoms of the disease Paracelsus writes. Humoral pathology and its insistence on diet is of no use. "Paracelsus' plague remedies include sulphur spirit of vitriol sulphur sublimate and metals also—for external treatment of boils—toads and decoctions of beetles designed to remove the evil of magnetic attraction but herbs and drugs as prescribed by Ficino and Agrippa are greatly amplified and still appear in a prominent place" Pagel pp. 180-181 n. 151.The editor of this volume Adam von Bodenstein was one of the key figures in the revival of Paracelsian ideas in the German lands in the middle of the sixteenth century. A son of a radical reformer he believed in transmutation of metals into gold and played a key role in the publication of over 80 works by Paracelsus. For his Paracelsianism he was excluded from the faculty and council of Basel University.OCLC records US copies at NYAM NLM Wash.

Very scarce edition of Theophrastus' two main works. It is one of the earliest Latin editions of Gaza's esteemed translation in reality it is the third printing of the first Latin edition first issued 1483 then 1529 in 8vo and now 1534 of the works which together constitute the foundation of scientific botany. By Linnaeus Theophrastus is called "the father of Botany". This edition comprises both botanical works The History of Plants and The Causes of Plants which have survived in their entirety and are the earliest books of this kind in world literature."It is very strange that so much botanic knowledge should have been accumulated by the end of the fourth century and that so little if anything was added to it in ancient times. Theophrastos is not only the first botanic writer but also the greatest until Renaissance of the sixteenth century in Germany.The botany of Theophrastos and the zoölogy of Aristotle represents the climax of natural history in antiquity." Sarton in A History.Vol. I p. 558. "No study of plants of such breadth and quality had previously been conceived: botany now first appears as a distinct science with a comprehensive yet clearly defined field of enquiry." A.G.

Renouard 116:3; Schreiber 142; Dibdin II 500; Hoffmann I 287-88; Hoffmann III 524; USTC 450450. ◆Joints and extremities lightly rubbed minor offsetting from turn-ins to endpapers and flyleaves leaves with a touch of browning to head edge isolated small marginal spots or minor smudges but still an extremely pleasing copy clean and fresh internally in a well-preserved binding. Rarely seen in the marketplace this collection of Greek texts printed in the exquisite Estienne "grecs du roi" type includes four parts: the 23 "Characters" of Theophrastus along with that author's essay on the senses and perception; the pseudo-Aristotle "De Mirabilibus Auscultationibus" "On Marvellous Things Heard"; and an essay on springs rivers and pools by the first century A.D. Greek philosopher Sotion. In "Characters" Theophrastus ca. 371 - ca. 287 B.C. delineates such human foibles as gossiping grumbling and boasting while the text once attributed to Aristotle is a series of anecdotes about inexplicable phenomena in the natural world a genre of classical literature known as paradoxography. The classical texts are followed by the critical notes of Henri Estienne 1528 or 1531-91 who rivaled Aldus Manutius in combining publishing with scholarship. In discussing this work Dibdin says "whatever H. Stephen did is worth consulting." Henri also contributed to the typography used here the smallest size of the "grecs du roi" cut for his father Robert by Claude Garamond--it is based on the Greek script written by the precocious Henri when he was 10 years old.

159250012Lyon Franciscus le Preux 1592. Small 8o. Early 19th century half calf with gilt title-label to spine. A bit of wear to hinges and corners but fine and tight. Internally exceptionally nice and clean. P. Rubow's owner's signature to front free end-paper. Woodcut vignettes to title-pages and woodcut initials at beginning of both parts. 8 88; 270 pp 1 blank leaf 16 ff. of indexes and errata at end. Scarce first edition thus being the editio princeps of Casaubon's milestone-edition of the seminal work that is Theophrastus' "Characters" containing apart from the original Greek text and Casaubon's translation of it into Latin also Casaubon's highly important commentary of the text. "This edition which was frequently reprinted 1598-1612-1617-1638 &c. is in every respect worthy of the high reputation of Casaubon. Both the text and the notes have served almost every subsequent editor. The Commentary is a rich mine of Grecian literature. The editor availed himself of the use of four MSS. in the Palatine library". Dibdin.Theophrastus ca. 371- ca. 287 BC Aristotle's successor at the Lyceum and probably the most famous Aristotelian of all times successfully presided over the Peripatetic School for 36 years and here wrote a number of works. The most famous of them is arguably his great moral opus "The Characters" which continues to amaze readers to this day. It introduced the "character sketch" which became the core of the Character as a genre and as such influenced the entire literary tradition of the Western world. The fabulous very witty astute harsh and insightful characteristics of type characters of the human race have been formative for our understanding of moral virtues and vices and for how man expresses them for our understanding of human nature in general. It is no wonder that the work became so popular and widely read during the Renaissance the era of man as the centre of the universe. The French-English classical scholar and philologist Isaac Casaubon 1559 - 1614 was regarded by many of his time as the most learned man in Europe. He is famous for his magnificent commentaries and deep understanding of the texts that he edited translated and commented. His edition of Theophrastus's Characters is considered a work of breakthrough as it constitutes the first example of his peculiar style of illustrative commentary at once apposite and profuse. This work is generally considered to exhibit his most characteristic excellences as a commentator.The present edition came to exercise a profound influence upon the interpretation of Theophrastus' great work. Casaubon's commentary served as the standard commentary for centuries and his translation remains a standard translation of the text. The present work thus remains a primary reference and a primary source when reading the work today.The commentary provided much commentary on Athenian society and the translation popularized the text making it available to modern Renaissance readers. Due to the excellent manner of translation into Latin the first English and French translations of this foundational text were enabled.The work was reprinted numerous times and kept appearing for centuries. "Nouvelle revision du texte sur 4 mss. Palatins accompagnée d'une nouvelle trad. latine et d'un commentaire excellent." Graesse VII:125. Dibdin II:501. unknown

Dieser Band enthält die "Chirurgia magna" in zwei Tomi in lateinischer Übersetzung von Josquinus Dalhemius tätig 2. H. 16. Jh. humanistischer Übersetzer paracelsischer Schriften. - Gedruckt von dem aus Lucca stammenden seit den 1540er-Jahren in Basel tätigen Humanisten- und Reformationsverleger Petrus Perna ca. 1519-1582. Die Chirurgia magna ist das zentrale chirurgische Werk Paracelsus' und dokumentiert seine praktische Wundarznei ebenso wie seine Reinterpretation traditioneller Krankheitslehren. In ihr treten seine Abkehr von der bloßen Galen Exegese sein empirisches Vorgehen am Krankenbett und sein Einsatz chemischer Präparate deutlich hervor; sie ist für das Verständnis der paracelsischen "Reformation der Medizin" unverzichtbar. Paracelsus betont systematisch die Bedeutung gründlicher Wundreinigung Drainage und Verhinderung von Fäulnis; die "gute Eiterung" der traditionellen Chirurgie wird kritisch relativiert und der Fokus stärker auf rasche "spezifische" Heilung gerichtet. Er beschreibt Trauma Frakturen Ulzera und Tumoren in enger Verbindung mit Umwelt und Stoffeinflüssen; damit wird die spätere Toxikologie vorbereitet Stichwort "Die Dosis macht das Gift" und eine spezifische substanzgebundene Krankheitsauffassung gefördert. Von besonderem Interesse auch für die frühe Geschichte der Neurochirurgie: Paracelsus behandelt in der Chirurgia magna Kopf- und Schädelverletzungen inkl. Indikationen zur Trepanation im Rahmen einer empirisch orientierten Wundchirurgie und verknüpft traumabedingte Lähmungen und Krampfzustände mit lokalen Strukturverletzungen statt ausschließlich mit humoral-systemischen Ursachen. Die Perna-Ausgabe von 1573 ist die erste große lateinische Gesamtausgabe der paracelsischen Chirurgie: Sie überführt die ursprünglich deutschsprachigen Wundarznei-Schriften Große und Kleine Chirurgie in ein gelehrtes europaweit rezipierbares Format und ist damit ein Schlüsselstück der frühen Paracelsus-Rezeption. Chirurgiegeschichtlich markiert der Band den Übergang von handwerklich-zunftgebundener Wundbehandlung zu einer spezifischen substanzgebundenen Therapieauffassung Toxikologie organspezifische Wirkungen Kritik an der "guten Eiterung" und ist für die Geschichte der Chirurgie wie der Pharmakologie gleichermaßen bedeutend. First major Latin edition of Paracelsus' surgical works containing the two tomes of the "Chirurgia magna" in one folio volume. Translated into Latin by Josquinus Dalhemius and printed by the Basel humanist printer Petrus Perna in 1573. Covers wounds fractures ulcers tumours and related conditions combining practical wound surgery with Paracelsus' innovative chymical pathology.

He succeeded Aristotle at the Lyceum and taught there for nearly 35 years. He has often been called "the father of botany" and perhaps deserves the title "the father of pharmacognosy" as well.

Beautiful Greek script. 48 ff. Extremely scarce first edition thus containing all of Theophrastus' 23 characters in Greek and Latin being the first edition of Auberius' excellent Latin translation and first edition with Lycio's interesting commentaries. "This very rare edition which presents us with the Greek text of H. Stephan Stephanus contains a new Latin version by Claudius Auberius who was scarcely twenty years of age when he composed it. The notes are critical and historical; sometimes bold but always erudite. This version and these notes were republished in Zuinger's edition of Aristotle's "Ethics" at Basil. fol. 1582." Dibdin II:500. This version of Theophrastus' milestone work the first recorded attempt at systematic character writing became hugely influential and is still referred to in modern editions of the text as Auberius' translation is regarded as one of the best and most important interpretations of the text. Claude Aubery or Claudius Auberius ca. 1540-1596 was a noted philosopher and medical doctor professor of Philosophy in Lausanne. He translated several Greek texts into Latin but is best remembered for his excellent version of Theophrastus' "Characters" which was highly influential throughout the Renaissance and which was incorporated into later Renaissance Aristotle-editions as the standard-version of Theophrastus' text. Theophrastus ca. 371- ca. 287 BC Aristotle's successor at the Lyceum and probably the most famous Aristotelian of all times successfully presided over the Peripatetic School for 36 years and here wrote a number of works.

Second or third printing of the original edition. The title-page states "seconde edition" but it is probably the third printed in the same year as the first and second being a page-by-page re-impression of the second except for the fact that corrections have been made and the errata-leaf is thus not printed in the third. Both the second and third original editions are from the same year and by the same printer as the first.

The "Characters" gave La Bruyère quite a few enemies and created furor in the learned world. In Denmark Holberg calls him "trivial and simple" Epistle 404. "Mais si en effet la malignité contemporaine applaudissant aux traits satiriques de l'ouvrage a peu contribuer à sa vogue le jugement de la postérité l'a consacré comme un des meilleurs livres de notre langue." N.B.G. p. 427. This work is thus still considered to be one of the greatest French books. Voltaire writes in "Siecle de Louis XIV c.

Un style rigide concis nerveaux des expressions pittoresques un usage tout nouveau de la langue mais qui n'en bless pas les règles frappèrent le public". Bruyère's work with the translation really did cause astonishment and had an immense impact on late 17th century Europe and onwards; it created a new literary genre in Europe and the age of Enlightenment was delighted with the short precise characterizations of people and their customs.

From the library of a notable--and perhaps notorious--classical scholar this is an important edition of the Greek philosopher's "Characters" with Isaac Casaubon's revisions to his translation and commentary of 1592 and the addition of five sections printed here for the first time that Casaubon had recently discovered at the Palatine Library. One of the earliest known works of psychology "Characters" contains pithy descriptions of the various types of human foibles noted by the Oxford Companion for their "remarkable vivacity and keenness of observation." A pupil of Aristotle and the master's successor as head of the school of Peripatetic philosophy Theophrastus ca. 371 - ca. 287 B.C. wrote widely on a number of subjects ranging from ethics to physics to botany he is considered the "father" of the last discipline. He would have considered these descriptions of such characters as "The Flattering Man" "The Stupid Man" and "The Oligarch" a minor work but it is one that has weathered the centuries. The present translation and commentary marked a milestone in the life of the great classical scholar Isaac Casaubon 1559-1614. Sandys says "It is not until we reach his commentary on the 'Characters' of Theophrastus 1592 that we find a work that is marked by his distinctive merit an interpretation of a text of the most varied interest founded on wide reading and consummate learning. It was a work that won the highest praise from Scaliger." Dibdin called the commentary "a rich mine of Grecian literature." Former owner Richard François Philippe Brunck 1729-1803 was a classical scholar of considerable note who devoted his leisure to the critical revision of the Greek poets. According to Britannica "He spent considerable sums of money in publishing editions of the Greek classics." Flaunting the established mode of editing and criticism he did not hesitate to make clarifying changes to difficult or inscrutable passages of text--whether these alterations were supported by manuscript authorities or not. Deprived of his royal pension by the French Revolution Brunck was forced to sell portions of his library in 1790 and again in 1801. Excudebat Guichard Julliéron apud Antoine de Harsy unknown
