Dodoens's Florum, et Coronarium was devoted to flowers, ranging from herbaceous annuals and perennials to rare bulbous plants, that were traditionally used in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries to form garlands and wreaths, coronae; in fact, a garden planted with such flowers was sometimes referred to in this period as a "hortus coronarius." Among the flowers he describes are the rose, violet, lily, marguerite, marigold, amaranth, iris, narcissus, sunflower, anemone and carnation and sweet-smelling herbs such as thyme, marjoram, lavender and lavender cotton.

First set foorth in the Dutch or Almaigne toong, by that learned D. Rembert Dodoens, phisition to the Emperor: and now first translated out of French into English, by Henrie Lyte Esquier. Corrected and Amended. London: Edm. Bollifant, 1595. Third edition. Octavo (7 x 5 1/4 inches; 180 x 135 mm). [40], 916, [48] pp. Translated by Henry Lyte from Charles de l'Écluse's 1557 French version of Dodoens's Cruydeboeck (Antwerp: 1554). Title-page within woodcut border.

Leaves M3-M8 with closed tears, professionally repaired and with no loss of text. Some minor marginal dampstaining and soiling Still overall a very good copy. Dodoens (1517-1585) was the first of the great Flemish botanists, "and in both his Cruydeboeck, 1554, and his Stirpium Historia Pemptades Sex, 1583.he helped to forward the growing interest in classification which had begun to be evident as early as 1539 in Bock's Neu Kreuterbuch" (Hunt 67). The Cruydeboeck, his first botanical book, "was a national herbarium devoted to species indigenous to the Flemish provinces. The merit of this book was that rather than proceeding by alphabetical order, as Fuchs had done, Dodoens grouped the plants according to their properties and their reciprocal affinities" (D.S.B.). Henry Lyte prepared his English translation with care, comparing "the last Douch copy" of the Cruydeboeck with the French version, and making corrections and additions. "After Lyte had finished his work, Rembert Dodoens sent fresh material, which the English translator incorporated in A nievve herball. Lyte's own copy of de l'Écluse's version [Histoire des plantes] is now preserved in the British Library (Bloomsbury). It contains numerous notes in French and English, written in red and black ink, and in a neat, clear hand. References to Turner and de l'Obel are inserted, and the book is carefully annotated and corrected" (Henrey, p. 36). The English Dodoens provided English literature with source material of great importance, as there were few books in English at the time purely devoted to plants. As Anderson (An Illustrated History of the Herbals, p. 178) remarks, the Lyte translation "may well have supplied Shakespeare with much of the plant lore used in his plays." ESTC S109768.

Erste Ausgabe dieses reichhaltig illustrierten Taschenhandbuchs für Ärzte und Botaniker , eines der vielen hervorragend illustrierten Werke, die von der Plantin-Presse in Antwerpen produziert wurden. Rembert Dodoens ( oder Dodonaeus, 1517 - 1585 ) war ein flämischer Botaniker, Hofarzt der Kaiser Maximilian II. und Rudolf II. und Professor für Medizin in Leiden. Er ist vor allem für seine in Niederländisch, Französisch, Englisch und Latein veröffentlichten Werke über Kräuter und ihre medizinischen Eigenschaften bekannt, die von den zeitgenössischen Schriften von Leonhart Fuchs und schließlich von Dioskurides' De materia medica" inspiriert wurden. Das vorliegende Werk, das Philipp II. von Spanien gewidmet ist, ist eine Studie über Pflanzen und Kräuter, die traditionell zur Reinigung und Entschlackung des Körpers verwendet werden. Zu jeder der über 100 besprochenen Pflanzen liefert er mindestens einen schönen ganzseitigen Holzschnitt. Diese Holzschnitte wurden von Peter vander Borcht unter der sorgfältigen Aufsicht des Botanikers Charles L'Écluse angefertigt und waren ursprünglich nicht für dieses Werk bestimmt (Kusukawa, S.94). Der Text zu jedem Holzschnitt enthält eine kurze Beschreibung des Aussehens der Pflanze, der Früchte, der alternativen Namen in verschiedenen Sprachen, des Lebensraums, des Geruchs, des Geschmacks (z. B. hat Coriandrus eine "saure und scharfe Bitterkeit") und der wirksamsten Behandlungen, die aus ihr gewonnen werden können, wie Öle, Liköre, Tees und Balsame. Zu den Pflanzen gehören Alpenveilchen, verschiedene Baldrianarten, Glockenblumen, Süßholz, Mohn, Sassafras und Estragon. Der "Anhang", der mit dem ersten Werk herausgegeben wurde, zeigt über 40 seltene Kräuter und Pflanzen mit neuen, noch nie zuvor gesehenen Holzschnitten. Das Vorwort enthält Dodoens' interessante Beobachtungen über den Prozess und die Qualität der Illustrationen ("icones") im vorherigen Buch und in anderen Werken sowie über die Bedeutung von Bildern in Kräuterbüchern. Er gibt auch an, in welchen botanischen Gärten in Brüssel und Antwerpen er Exemplare zum Kopieren fand. Wie immer liefert Dodoens allgemeine Informationen und mindestens einen Holzschnitt zu jeder Pflanze, darunter die 'Iris Tuboerosa', die Distel, die Absinthe und die Molukken (benannt nach den Inseln, von denen sie wahrscheinlich stammen). Enthalten sind auch Kapitel über "Hyoscyamus Peruvianus" (Tabak) und "Zarsae Parillae" (Sarsaparille) vgl. Belg.

Third and last revised Dutch edition of a classic herbal. The Cruydt-Boeck, not to be confused with the Cruydeboeck first published in 1554, was largely a Dutch translation of the Stirpium historiae pemptades sex, libri XXX, first published by Plantin at Antwerp in 1583. The Stirpium represents Dodoens' best and last great work: a monumental botanical study divided into 6 large sections, each containing 5 books, with the plants classified in 26 groups. This system was far superior to all his earlier classifications. Joost van Ravelinghen or Justus Raphelengius (1573-1628) at Leiden, Christophe Plantin's grandson, first published the present translation in 1608, adding extra information in a smaller type at the end of each chapter. These additions give information on the qualities of the plant taken from the Cruydeboeck, if not present in the Stirpium, as well as new information or descriptions of new plants taken from the work of other authors, including Carolus Clusius and Mathias de Lobel. At the end Van Ravelinghen added a whole new part on exotic plants taken from the works of Clusius, Garcia da Orta, Nic. Monardès, Chr. Acosta and others. The present 1644 edition follows the 1618 edition, apparently a copy annotated by Van Ravelinghen, so that it provides his final thoughts. The printer-publisher was Plantin's great grandson, who had succeeded to his famous Antwerp printing office and publishing house.The woodcut illustrations in the first Dutch edition are for the most part the same as in the Stirpium, but there were several alterations made and some replacements, while 25 new woodcuts of new plants were added, not counting the 52 new woodcuts in the extra supplement on exotic plants. In the second Dutch edition of 1618 Van Ravelingen again added substantial information, following the second Latin edition (Antwerp, 1616). The present 1644 edition does not name Van Ravelingen on the title-page, but includes his name at the end of his 1618 note to the reader. It adds 14 new woodcuts, replaces 18, moves 3 from the supplement to the main work, and omits 3. With a contemporary(?) manuscript annotation describing the book and its author in French in brown ink on the verso of the first free end leaf. With one (of two) brass clasp remaining, professionally reattached to the anchor plate. The boards and the spine are somewhat scuffed (mainly the back board), but the detailed gold- and blind-tooling is still clearly visible. The hinges have been professionally restored. A few leaves show minor tears or small defects to the margins, without affecting the text. The edges of the book block and thus the edges of the leaves are very slightly browned, internally very slightly browned and foxed, without affecting the clarity of the woodcut botanical illustrations. Otherwise in good condition.l Bibl. Belg. II, pp. 226-227 (D121); Nissen, BBI 518; Pritzel 2345; Stafleu & Cowan 1492; STCN 31381001X (9 copies); cf.

A good copy in later vellum, spine gilt-lettered, late C17 autograph 'Carolus Olivetanus' (Charles Olivétan?) to verso of first title. First edition of this lavishly illustrated pocket manual for physicians and botanists - one of the many superbly illustrated works produced by the Plantin press in Antwerp. Rembert Dodoens (or Dodonaeus, 1517-85) was a Flemish botanist, court physician to the Emperors Maximilian II and Rudolph II, and professor of medicine at Leiden. He is most renowned for his works on herbs and their medicinal properties published in Dutch, French, English and Latin, inspired by the contemporary writings of Leonhart Fuchs and, ultimately, by Dioscorides's 'De materia medica'. Dedicated to Philip II of Spain, the present is a study of plants and herbs traditionally used to purge and cleanse the body. For each of the over 100 plants discussed, he provides at least one handsome full-page woodcut. These woodcuts were produced by Peter vander Borcht, under the careful supervision of the botanist Charles L'Écluse, and were not originally intended for this work (Kusukawa, p.94). The text accompanying each woodcut includes a short description of the plant's appearance, fruit, alternative names in various languages, habitat, smell, taste (e.g., Coriandrus has a 'sour and pungent bitterness' to it) and the most effective treatments that can be drawn from it, such as oils, liquors, teas and balms. Among the plants are the cyclamen, many types of valerian, bluebell, liquorice, poppy, sassafras and tarragon. Issued with the first work, the 'appendix' depicts over 40 rare herbs and plants, with new woodcuts, never previously seen. The preface provides Dodoens' interesting observations on the process and quality of the illustrations ('icones') in the previous book, as well as others, as well as the importance of images in herbals. He also specifies botanic gardens where he found specimens he could copy, in Brussels and Antwerp. As always, Dodoens provides general information and at least one woodcut for each, among them being the 'Iris Tuboerosa', thistle, absinth, and the Moluccas (named after the islands whence they probably originated).

Second edition, adding a chapter with an additional case study, and only Plantin edition of an important collection of medical case studies and other medical observations by the great botanist Rembert Dodoens. Dodoens took many from his own medical practice and also edited and annotated examples by his predecessors: Taranta (d. 1418), Benivieni (published 1507) and Cornax (1507-1564). He also added his own hierarchical overview of physiology following Galenus. While several highly regarded scholars published collections of this sort, they are aimed largely at the general public and tend to present bizarre cases that hold the reader's attention. By writing in Latin Dodoens brought his book to an international educated public. Such works also try to demonstrate the value of classical Galenic medical theories, while using new observations to correct and expand them in areas where they had proved weak. This helped defend the status of the medical academic in a world where many healers practiced without academic training, whether experienced herbalists or outright charlatans.With contemporary owner's inscriptions. A few quires slightly browned, but the book is still in very good condition.
