His Opera was first published in Paris in 1641 and this edition expanded . with the omission of Tabulae institutionum and the addition of Vita Danielis Sennerti Judicia virorum clarissimorum Methodus discendi medicinam De curatione infantium De arthritide Tragopodagra Luciani in Greek and Latin Exoterica Epitome librorum de febribus Epistolarum medicinalium una cum responsorii D. Michaelis Doringei centuriae duae. The Epitome is reprinted from the Epitome edited by Claude Bonnet-- Krivatsy. This edition is regarded as the best. Among Sennerts many achievements he was the first to introduce chemistry as a subject of the medical curriculum and to make a serious effort to harmonize the Galenic doctrines of medicine with those of Paracelsus. Besides giving early accounts of scarlatina and rubella Sennert added to the knowledge of scurvy dysentery and alcoholism. He was an able clinician but a believer in witchcraft.-- Garrison-Morton 61. Scarcely found on the market these volumes are a complete set of Sennerts studies and 17th century medicine. Sennert was known to apply astrology to medicine and the supernatural origins of disease.

The overall collection of 64 volumes was printed from 1781 to 1784 and edited by the order of Louis XVI. Just two years later the French monarchy would be in crisis; bankrupt and facing various political upheavals in the years leading up to the Revolution. This surviving set dates from the time of relative peace before upheaval and before the Count later reigned as Charles X in the post-Revolution era in 1824. These survive as early relics of the French monarch's cultural interests and endeavors.

These works are extremely neatly printed on laid paper and stand as a precursor to DidotÂ’s prolific typographic and printing career. Complete copies of the Count dÂ’ArtoisÂ’s collection are of utmost rarity; these portative sixteen make up an excellent union. Brunet 19413.

18TH CENTURY RELIGIOUS POETRY A TYPOGRAPHY A REMONDINI PRESSABAA

Componimenti poetici nella solenne professione di suor Maria Teresa Crocefissa al secolo illustrissima signora Girolama Gaudio nellÂ’insigne monistero do Girolama di Venezia consagrati agli illustrissimi signoro Giuseppe Luigi e Clemente Gaudio Fratelli Amorosissimi Della Medesima.

1764KC8048Venice: Remondini 1764. Hardcover. Very Good. Folio 315 x 240mm. 38pp. I-XXXVIII. Finely printed with decorative chapter headings and tail-pieces. Engraved printerÂ’s device of Remondini depicting bishop with putti carrying crozier and miter. Engraved vignette of muses on dedication page. Decorative paper covered boards; some minor soiling or staining joint repaired on title verso lacking first and last blanks otherwise complete and in good form with good wide margins. Collection of poetic essays in song of Sister Maria Theresa Crocefissa 1645-1699 an Augustinian nun from Venice known for her long orations printed by the Remondini press. In the 16th century Venice was the marketplace of the world. Its location on the lagoon and its unique connections with the sea distinguished it as a cosmopolitan center among the great cities of the Renaissance. In this larger context commerce and trade played a central role in the development and achievements of music printing. The subject of this work is poems written as canzones and sonettoes or songs and little songs of Sister Maria Crocefissa. From an early age Maria Crocefissa was devoted to long poetic orations. Soon she was also engaged in self-punitive actions including wearing a hairshirt. At the age of 23 she experienced her first religious ecstasies. During these periods of trance some lasting well over a week she regressed into a childlike state that left her completely paralyzed. The presence of Maria Crocefissa in her Augustinian convent of San Girolamo brought about a series of supernatural episodes and mysterious sightings which interested the public. While she was still alive her papers were widely published. This particular title of her poems addressed to Girolama Gaudio is of utmost rarity not located in a contemporary library collection or market worldwide. From the Remondini press who by the second half of the 18th century were employing more than a thousand people in the Bassano del Grappa with hundreds of others busy in their local paper mills and selling their products in scores of countries making them perhaps the biggest publishers in Europe. Between 1751 and 1790 Remondini were granted more licenses for books than all the other Venice booksellers put together. Printed matter was a luxury and the Remondini press was known to employ refined typographical features to suit the tastes of buyers. In this work attention is paid to the decorative elements initials and layout of each page. Remondini hardcover books
