"Copies of the complete 1529 edition seem to be quite rare as we have found only three others listed above." Hunt catalogue 1:34-35 entry 26. "This is the earliest work of scientific botany a subject not addressed in any of the writings of Aristotle." Theophrastus "system of botanical classification analogous to the zoological system in Aristotle's Historia animalium maintained its authority until the advent of the microscope in the mid 17th century." Garrison & Morton Theophrastus of Eresos c.370-287 bce "one of Aristotle's greatest students built upon Diodes' work and founded the field of biology known as botany. In his works 'On the Natural History of Plants' and 'On the Origins of Plants' Theophrastus identified and classified over 500 species of plants and explained their medicinal properties. 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. Remarkably Theophrastus pioneered the concept of drug tolerance observing that the power of a drug taken over a long period diminishes in people who become accustomed to taking them."

1644M14453Amstelodami: apud Henricum Laurentium 1644. 1644. Folio in 6s. 20 418 417-694 495-529 730-994 997-1187 1 88 pp. Numerous mispaginations noted. With the magnificent engraved title and 600-700 decorative botanical woodcuts. Text in 2 columns index not paginated parallel texts in Greek and Latin. Bound recently in full antique-style speckled calf richly gilt-tooled in a masterfully elegant binding; some neat paper mends to gutter front & back leaves some leaves variously stained at edges in the rear pages 950-988 browned. New endleaves. The splendid Bodaeus van Stapel edition of Theophrastus' seminal work Enquiry into Plants beautifully illustrated with hundreds of fine woodcuts of all the known plants. This is the first edition by edited by Johannes Bodaeus van Stapel 1602-1636 who died prior to the book being issued. This edition of Bodaeus van Stapel is the most important and influential edition of Theophrastus. The book is the first comprehensive systematization all known plants and as such important in the history of plant science. Plants of the new world America Asia and Africa are included. / The editor Bodaeus van Stapel is known for this particular work the Latin version of Theophrastus' Historia plantarum the text completed before his death in 1636 and published posthumously in Amsterdam in 1644 by his father. / Thomas Frognall Dibdin wrote of this edition: "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 conjectures of Scaliger Constantine and Salmasius and also incorporated; and although Haller has censured Bodaeus for occasionally wandering from his subject and introducing a few errors the present this edition of 1644 is nevertheless an edition well deserving of the curious botanist's attention: for it has collected into one body the opinions of the old writers on the subject of plants. It contains some wood-cuts of the rarer species which are much better uncoloured than coloured." - Thomas Frognall Dibdin An Introduction to The Knowledge of Rare and Valuable Editions of the Greek and Latin Classics . . . London 1808 vol. II p. 285. / This edition of Theophrastis is "one of the best and most thoughtfully prepared of all the editions of Theophrastis" - Hunt. / "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." - Harley Harris Bartlett Fifty-five Rare Books for the botanical library of Mrs. Roy Arthur Hunt.
