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.
