Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Editio princeps of the O.F. translation of Albucasis (ms. BNF fr. 1318), with introduction and glossary. The text, hitherto neglected, is important as one of the earliest medieval vernacular surgical treatises (dating from c. 1270); and because the Albucasis translation goes back (via a medieval Latin version) to an Arabic original; finally, as an example of Lorraine non-literary prose. The distinctively Lorraine text contains not only numerous first attestations of medical technical terms in French, but also a quantity of previously unrecorded Arabicisms.; Editio princeps de la traduction en afr. du traité sur la chirurgie d'Albucasis (ms. BNF fr. 1318), avec introduction et glossaire. Ce texte, inédit et ignoré, a une triple importance: il s'agit d'un des tout premiers textes chirurgiques en français (c. 1270); ensuite, la traduction remonte (par l'intermédiaire d'une traduction latine) à l'arabe; enfin, en tant qu'exemple de la prose non-littéraire lorraine du Moyen Age. La Chirurgie renferme non seulement de nombreux exemples de mots techniques médicaux en français, mais aussi une quantité importante d'arabismes qui n'ont pas été relevés ailleurs. Editio princeps der afrz. Albucasis-Übersetzung der Hs. BNF fr. 1318, mit Einleitung und Glossar. Dieser bisher vernachlässigte Text ist zuerst als einer der frühesten volkssprachlichen Chirurgie-Texte des Mittelalters (ca. 1270) wichtig; aber auch, weil die Albucasis-Version aus dem Arabischen (via einer mittellateinischen Redaktion) übersetzt wurde; und als Beispiel der altlothringischen Fachprosa. Der stark dialektgefärbte Text bietet nicht nur zahlreiche Erstbelege von medizinischen Fachwörtern im Französischen, sondern auch eine Vielzahl von bisher nicht belegten Arabismen. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. ALBUCASIS. Liber theoricae nec non practicae Alsaharavi. Augsburg: Sigismund Grimm & Marcus Wirsung, 1519. Folio (300 × 222 mm). Collation: [6], 159 leaves. Title-page and final page with printer's woodcut in facsimile on contemporary paper. Binding: 19th-century morocco-backed marbled boards, rubbed. Abu al-Qasim Khalaf Ibn Abbas al-Zahrawi (936-1013), known in the West as Albucasis, was born in Zahra, near Córdoba (Spain). Regarded as one of the greatest of the Arab physicians, he excelled in internal medicine, surgery, and ophthalmology. His great medical encyclopedia—commonly known as The Book of Medical Methods / The Method of Medicine (al-Tasrīf)—is a highly influential medieval Arabic work in 30 volumes, covering surgery, orthopedics, ophthalmology, pharmacology, and other medical fields. This Augsburg printing is the editio princeps of the first Latin translation of his first two books. The first part treats cauterization, applied to roughly 50 types of diseases, including the removal of tumors and the management of arterial bleeding. It also contains the first known description of hemophilia and one of the early descriptions of leprosy. The work is said to describe more than 300 diseases and their treatments, including detailed accounts of many surgical procedures and surgical instruments.…

Folio (210 x 325 mm). 328 pp. Set in roman type. Titles within a ornamental woodcut border, with 8 full-page woodcuts by Hans Wechtlin and numerous woodcuts in the text. Rebound in the 19th century by Ludwig Eichhorn in half roan, brown paper spine label with manuscript title, drawn circle on the back board with the (faded) title within it, manuscript title on the bottom edge, new pastedowns and endpapers. Two esteemed 16th century medical works, originally written in the 4th and 11th century, here issued together in an early printed edition. Especially the second work in this early printed book is important: it is the only exclusively surgical work left by an Arab source. This treatise was written by Albucasis (Abu al-Qasim al-Zahwari) and was translated into Latin at Toledo by Gerard of Cremona (ca. 1114-87). Albucasis, a native of Cordoba in Moorish Spain, was an Arab physician of the 11th century who is sometimes described as "the father of surgery". The present work, which is the 30th and most popular volume of his 30-volume medical encylopedia entitled "Kitab al-Tasrif", can without doubt be regarded as the principal work of Albucasis, which established his authority. It is the first illustrated surgical guide ever written. - Albucasis' treatise is divided into three books, each treating a different surgical topic: the first, cauterization (a procedure recommended by the Prophet, the medical practice of burning a part of the body to remove or close off a part of it), the second on cutting and bloodletting, and the third on luxations of the limbs. It contains numerous small woodcuts of surgical instruments within the text. The author describes these instruments and how and when to use them. Added to the text of Albucasis are eight rather gruesome full-page woodcuts of specific operations, made by the German renaissance artist Hans Wechtlin (active between at least 1502 and 1526), probably his only surviving work. They show (1) a man wounded by many instruments, (2) a cauterization, (3) an amputation, (4) the extraction of an arrow, (5) bloodletting, (6) a full-page skeleton, and (7 & 8) trepanning operations. These woodcuts were not made specifically for this work, but were re-used by Schott after they had appeared in a manual printed by the German surgeon Hans von Gersdorff in 1517, entitled "Feldtbuch der Wundartzney". - Albucasis' surgical treatise was first printed (in Latin) in 1497. His guide remained a famous pharmacopoeia as late as the mid-16th century. The contents and descriptions contributed to many technological innovations in medicine, especially concerning the tools required for specific operations. - The work of Albucasis is preceded by the "Rerum medicarum libri quator", a therapeutic compendium written by the 4th century Greek physician Theodorus Priscianus, also known under his pseudonym Octavianus Horatianus. It here appears in print for the first time, in a Latin translation, though originally written in Greek, and edited by Hermann von Neuenahr (ca. 1492-1530), a German humanist with particular interest in medicine and pharmacy besides history and theology. The work is better known as the "Euporista" (Easily Obtained Remedies). - Priscianus' work consists of four books, treating several diseases and their remedies: the first two books treat external and internal diseases, the third gynecology, and the last physiology. - Both works together are printed by the German printer Johann Schott (1477-1548), the son of the printer Martin Schott and the grandson of the pioneering printer Johann Mentelin in Strasbourg. - Contemporary inscription in ink on last blank page in the same hand as the manuscript title written on the bottom edge. Binding a little worn and showing some stains, with two holes in the front board and two in the back board, probably from (now lost) clasps. A few tiny holes in the first two pages. The first four leaves browned, some minor foxing to the title-page. Paper slightly browned over.…
