15263111<p>Venice: Aldine Press 1526. A fine and fresh copy of the editio princeps of the Hippocratic corpus a collection of texts assembled in the third century B.C. including the Hippocratic Oath and many of the foundation texts of western medicine traditionally attributed to the legendary physician and teacher Hippocrates of Cos. "It is uncertain which of them if any are directly connected with the historical physician Hippocrates of Cos who flourished in the latter half of the fifth century B.C. Through the writings attributed to him Hippocrates is credited with developing the first system of empirical medicine based on clinical experience and the Hippocratic Oath has long been regarded as expressing the fundamental ethical and moral standards of the medical profession" Grolier Medicine p. 3. The text was edited by Francesco Torresani using a fifteenth-century manuscript now in Paris BNF MS gr. 2141 with corrections provided by a second manuscript which belonged to Cardinal Bessarion Venice Bibliotheca Marciana MS gr. 269. This edition comprising 59 works includes some that were not included in the Latin translation by Marco Fabio Calvo published the previous year in Rome. "The Aldine Greek edition of Hippocrates marked a significant advance over Calvus’s Latin translation. As Franciscus Asulanus Francesco Torresani pointed out in his notice to the reader it repaired a considerable number of accidental omissions and one long repetition that Calvus. made because he followed only one manuscript. Moreover by presenting the original text it laid the necessary foundation for all further philological and medical study of the corpus" ibid.

He served the Catholic forces of Philip II of Spain as a chirurgian major in 1590 Siege of Paris during the French Wars of Religion. Upon returning to Scotland Lowe was dismayed at the state of Scottish medicine. He petitioned and received a charter from James VI James I of England to found what became the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. First published in 1597 the book was notable as the first comprehensive text of surgery written in English. In the book Lowe outlined a number of novel procedures in neurosurgery many dealing with military medicine. Lowe also wrote about the Spanish Sickness an early treatise on Syphilis. Also included is Lowe's English translation of the Prognostics of Hippocrates. See: Tubbs Maister Peter Lowe and His 16th Century Contributions to Cranial Surgery.

1724HCHAA4VAGU23Paris: Guillelmum Cavelier 1724. Contemporary calf gold-tooled spine red edges marbled pastedowns and endpapers. 12mo. With a woodcut device on title-page and a tailpiece on the last page. 2 volumes. 18th-century edition of Hippocrates Aphorisms in Greek and Latin printed in 1724 in Paris. Hippocrates in the Islamic tradition known as Boqrat where he is often referred to as the first codifier of medicine is often named together with Galen and their works mainly survived because of the Arabic translations. His aphorisms are a series of observations from which the patients affliction could be deduced and treatment prescribed. Their broad application made them exceptionally valuable to medical practitioners of the time. These aphorisms were very popular in the Islamic world and they can show us that Arabic-speaking authors critically engaged with Greek heritage in Arab translation. Today some of these Arabic commentaries on the Aphorisms have survived and these sources show us how medicine developed in Europe and Arabia through the ages. Although this edition is a combination of Greek and Latin the work was very influential for Arabic medical literature because the Aphorisms led to new writings in this genre. The Aphorisms are an influential benchmark in the Arabic medical literature.With an ink inscription of Ludovici Dubois doctor of medicine. Slightly damaged at lower hinge of the first volume small wormhole in lower margin of the first volume and some occasional spots. A very good copy.l Blake p. 213; P.E.

Zwinger hatte bereits 1561 eine Galen-Ausgabe besorgt nachdem er nach langjährigen Studien in Lyon und Paris 1559 in seine Heimatstadt Basel zurückgekehrt war.

FIRST GREEK-LATIN EDITION Richly blind-tooled pigskin over 5 mighty double bands with gilt leather spine label and red edges without former binding bands. The first two leaves with old backed tiny wormholes otherwise only evenly minimally browned altogether of the very freshest astonishingly good condition - one would almost like to say "hot off the press" for there are also no ownership notes no entries of any kind. -- The remarkably beautiful binding from the end of the 16th century shows a beautiful virtue scroll with the female allegories of "SPES" "FIDES" "CARITAS" "PRUDENTIA" on the front cover. First Greek-Latin edition of the extensively annotated works of the Greek physician Hippocrates of Kos c. 460-370 B.C. whose teachings were still of indispensable value for the early modern era which is the reason for the high esteem with which the editors treated his work and - here for the first time - made it available to a broad public through the Latin-Greek edition. Hippocrates thus stands at the beginning of scientific human medicine which could then only be completely rethought at the end of the 19th century with the groundbreaking inventions. Until then his work remained binding as a basis and is presented here in a particularly splendid edition: "Good notes by Jacques Hollerius; commentary by Jacot who . took the best from Duret's lectures" Choulant 28. - Durling 2399.

Hippocratis medicine traversed the centuries somewhat like Aristotelian Logic; and if since the nineteenth century the errors of the physician have been seen to be more profound than those of the logician it is because the domaine that he explored was much the more complex."DSB VI p.429.The Hippocratic Oath has been taken in spirit if not in precise form by medical students for more than two thousand years. The Aphorisms the best known work of the Hippocratic Collection are probably genuinely Hippocratic at least in part. They are here presented with the commentaries of Galen both of which are in Latin translation. The well-known aphorism "Vita brevis ars vero longa" Life is short but art is long opens the book.
