A new edition of this important work. In a contemporary calf binding retaining original endpapers.An eighteenth century edition of this important midwifery work and early sex manual. The work was falsely attributed to the celebrated philosopher Aristotle though the work was written anonymously by a Pseudo-Aristotle due to the nature of the work and often considered to be the work of Doctor William Salmon. This volume contains four parts with the first part being 'Aristotle's Complete Master-piece' the popular and controversial sexual guide often considered to be the first English sex manual. The work discusses the benefits of mutual sexual pleasure and the enjoyment of intercourse stating the importance of women's pleasure for successful procreation. These ideas were unusual for the time period and the book was supposedly banned due to the explicit nature of the work though this has not been proven.The rest of the work is a midwifery book discussing fertility pregnancy and childbirth including a discussion about virginity stating that virginity cannot be determined by the state of a women's hymen a statement very ahead of its time.

Aristotle [Anon]
The Works of Aristotle The Famous Philosopher containing I. His Complete Masterpiece II. His Experienced Midwife III. His Book of Problems IV. His Remarks on Physiognomy V. The Family Physician.
1890. London The Booksellers no date c.1890. 9 x 13cm. 528 pages with text illustrations and colour plates. Original illustrated hardcover with gilt lettering on spine. Excellent condition with only minor signs of external wear some creasing to spine. Historical Sex-Manual disguised as works of Aristotle. Discusses Virginity and what it is How Virginity may be lost How a woman should order herself in order to conception "A woman that would conceive should observe that she does not use the act of coition too often; for gatiety gluts the womb and renders it unfit for office ! - There are two things that demonstrate this: i.e. that common whores who often use copulation have never or rarely any children: for the grass seldom grows in a path that is commonly trodden in. The other is that women whose husbands have been long absent do after copulation with them again conceive very quickly" / "Women ought to take great care that their imagination be pure and dear that their child may be well formed". The book also discusses causes and cure of Barrenenss Of the Hot Distempers of the Womb The Diseases of the Womb Palmistry shewing the various judgments drawn from the hand includes a choice of remedies for the several distempers to the human body Crabs Herpes Hysteria etc. Aristotle's Masterpiece also known as The Works of Aristotle the Famous Philosopher is a sex manual and a midwifery book that was popular in England from the early modern period through to the 19th century. It was first published in 1684 and written by an unknown author who falsely claimed to be Aristotle. As a consequence the author is now described as a Pseudo-Aristotle the collective name for unidentified authors who masqueraded as Aristotle. The title of the work was possibly chosen because Aristotle was seen as a sex expert in early modern England. Another popular pseudo-Aristotelian text which covered sex and reproduction Aristotle's Problems 1595 had been responsible for this reputation. The real Aristotle had also written works about the reproduction of animals such as History of Animals and Generation of Animals and was considered an authority on scientific matters in general. hardcover

Aristotle Tyrwhitt, Thomas editor
ΑΡΙΣΤΟΤΕΛΟΥΣ ΠΕΡΙ ΠΙΗΤΙΚΗΣ. Aristotelis De poetica liber : Græce et Latine. / Lectionem constituit versionem refinxit animadversionibus illustravit Thomas Tyrwhitt.
Classical Authors: Oxonii/Oxford E Typographeo Clarendoniano. 1794. Large paper Octavo; xvi 257 3 p. engraved tail pieces. The beautiful clear Greek text printed with the Latin translation below followed by the commentary by Tyrwhitt. First edition of the outstanding recension by Thomas Tyrwhitt 1730-1786. "His Poetics was the first modern edition of the text." Barker Graesse: "édition estimée".Brunet " Belle édition." "This is a very elegant and accurate edition containing the commentaries of Tyrwhitt as well as his version . The Greek text is formed on that of Winstanley but so carefully corrected as to leave not a single error unnoticed . The large paper copies of this volume form one of the most attractive ornaments of a classical collection. They are few in number and costly in price; being reserved by the Delegates of the University Press as presents for eminent characters. I understand that 34 copies have been already distributed . This edition has been several times reprinted at Oxford with only three alterations and those not important ones." Dibdin I 323 Rebacked original boards diced calf with Greek key in gilt; marbled endpapers. Old ink annotation to front free end paper quoting Dibden; owners name clipped. Large paper copy clean and bright. Aristotle's Poetics is the earliest surviving work of dramatic theory and first extant philosophical treatise to focus on literary theory in the West. This has been the traditional view for centuries. However recent work is now challenging whether Aristotle focuses on literary theory per se given that not one poem exists in the treatise or whether he focuses instead on dramatic musical theory that only has language as one of the elements. In it Aristotle offers an account of what he calls "poetry" a term which in Greek literally means "making" and in this context includes drama – comedy tragedy and the satyr play – as well as lyric poetry and epic poetry. They are similar in the fact that they are all imitations but different in the three ways that Aristotle describes: Differences in music rhythm harmony meter and melody. Difference of goodness in the characters. Difference in how the narrative is presented: telling a story or acting it out. In examining its "first principles" Aristotle finds two: 1 imitation and 2 genres and other concepts by which that of truth is applied/revealed in the poesis. His analysis of tragedy constitutes the core of the discussion. The work was lost to the Western world for a long time. It was available in the Middle Ages and early Renaissance only through a Latin translation of an Arabic version written by Averroes. TYRWHITT THOMAS 1730-1786 English classical scholar and critic was born in London on the 27th of March 1730 where he died on the 15th of August 1786. He was educated at Eton and Queen's College Oxford fellow of Merton 1755. In 1756 he was appointed under-secretary at war in 1762 clerk of the House of Commons. In 1768 he resigned his post and spent the remainder of his life in learned retirement. In 1784 he was elected a trustee of the British Museum to which he bequeathed a portion of his valuable library. His principal classical works are: Fragmenta Plutarchi II. inedita !773. from a Harleian MS. ; Dissertatio de Babrio 1776 containing some fables of Aesop hitherto unedited from a Bodleian MS.; the pseudo-Orphic De lapidibus 1781 which he assigned to the age of Constantius; Conjecturae in Strabonem 1783; Isaeus De Meneclis hereditate 1785; Aristotle's Poetica his most important work published after his death under the superintendence of Dr Burgess bishop of Salisbury in 1794. Special mention is due of his editions of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales 1775-1778; and of Poems supposed to liave been written at Bristol by Thomas Rowley and others in the Fifteenth Century 1777-1778 with an appendix to prove that the poems were all the work of Chatterton. In 1782 he published a Vindication of the Appendix in reply to the arguments of those who maintained the genuineness of the poems. While clerk of the House of Commons he edited Proceedings and Debates of the House of Commons 1620-1621 from the original MS. in the library of Queen's College Oxford and Henry Elsynge's 1598- 1654 The Manner of holding Parliaments in England. 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica Volume 27 Brunet 1:478; Graesse I214 ;Barker Oxford Univ.

Commentaria De Generatione et Corruptione Ioannis Grammatici Philoponi Alexandrei Commentaria in libros De generatione et corruptione Aristotelis: ex colloquiis Ammonii Hermeae propriisque eius considerationibus. Hieronymo Bagolino Veronensi interprete. Quae omnia ingenio ac doctrina peritissimi vtriusque linguae viro denuo sunt diligentissime recognita ac erroribus post primam & secundam editionem repurgata
Venice: apud Hieronymus Scotum Scotus 1559. Hardcover. Very Good. Folio 315 x 215mm. 2 137pp. 1. Signatures: A-Q4 R6. Woodcut profile bust of Aristotle on title with dedication Peripateticae Disciplina Principis Vera Aristotelis Stagiritae Effigies. Final leaf with woodcut printers device of Scotus classical muse atop star sphere with motto Fiat pax in virtute tua Let there be peace in your walls. Latin translation by Girolamo Bagolino of Verona c. 1470-1535 professor of philosophy at Padua. Text in double column. Italic and Roman type. 18th-century marbled boards modeled to resemble tree-calf; hole through opening leaves causing some text loss title with minor stains hinges starting p. 135 folded corner repaired clean tear in blank portion of last leaf. The clipped booklabel of Seminarium Mutinense pasted on the title fittingly connects this copy to the Jesuit Seminary library in Modena in the Provincia Veneta which was also a center for study popularly called a Collegium. Sixteenth-century editions of Philoponuss Aristotelian explanations have a major place in the commentarial tradition and philosophy of the Renaissance. <br/><br/>1559 Scotus edition of Philoponuss commentary on the De Generatione et Corruptione of Aristotle; a beautifully produced Venetian work still in good form. John Philoponus also known as John the Grammarian was a Byzantine-era Aristotelian commentator and author of several philosophical treatises. The first Latin translation of Philoponuss commentary on Aristotles treatise De Generatione et Corruptione seems to be the one made by Hieronymus Bagolinus from the Aldine edition of 1527 first published in Venice by Hieronymus Scotus in 1540; the second made by Andrea Silviuis was published by Valgrisius in 1564. This is Scotuss fourth edition of 1559 in which he states errors of the first and the second edition are purged thus repeating the title found in the third. It precedes a fifth and final edition of 1568. Philoponus presents his commentary as notes taken from the seminars of Procluss student Ammonius c. 435-526 AD together with certain remarks of my own; Philoponuss is an elaborate exposition of Aristotelian theory followed by several criticisms which are answered with sophistication. To history this commentary has always been received as a school work but it was an interesting book to early scholars for it was supposed to have been written before 529 terminus post quem - hence before Philoponuss writings became entrenched in Christianity and creationist views. Like most ancient commentaries this one maintains certain importance for the constitution of the text on which it comments. Scotuss publications were widely regarded as elegant productions; wide-format and designed with attractive typeface this refined style was typical on the Venetian marketplace at this time. apud Hieronymus Scotum (Scotus) hardcover books

ARISTOTLE 384 BC 322 BC PHILOPONUS Joannes John the Grammarian 490 AD 570 AD
Commentaria in libros posteriorum analiticorum Aristotelis. Ioannis Grammatici Philoponi Alexandrei commentaria in libros posteriorum analiticorum Aristotelis: denuo maxima diligentia castigate ac ad Graecorum exemplar longe fidelius quam antea collata
Venice: Hieronymus Scotum Scotus 1569. Hardcover. Very Good. Folio 315 x 215mm. 2 150pp. 2. Signatures: A-I 8 K4. Io. Grammatici in cartouche at head of title page. Woodcut profile bust of Aristotle on title with dedication Peripateticae Disciplina Principis Vera Aristotelis Stagiritae Effigies. Final leaf with woodcut printers device of Scotus of griffin in animated cartouche head-pieces and initials throughout. Text printed in double columns. Italic and Roman type. Original limp vellum vertically ruled in brown ink to front cover; edges slightly curled minor marginal dampstaining at beginning and end otherwise clean. Near contemporary ownership inscriptions in Latin on front flyleaf mostly faded but name and order of at least two young men Salvatoris and Bartolomei are given. 19th century stamp of the Seminario Vescovile of Volterra on title. The Tuscan Jesuit Seminary dedicated to Saint Andrew employed student novices throughout its history and one would have likely used this copy. Interestingly the seminary is still active today and maintains lodgings for travelers. This copy is further enhanced by a full-page pencil doodle of a mythological composition muses putti and foliate boughs on the rear flyleaf probably completed in the seventeenth century. <br/><br/>The last 1569 Scotus edition of Philoponuss commentary on the Posterior Analytics of Aristotle; an example-laden investigatory explanation on the classification of scientific knowledge Byzantine-era Philoponuss comments on the Posterior Analytics of Aristotle are interesting especially for their metaphysical analysis of the universal idea his account revealed his beliefs in Platonic forms as inherently part of the Divine Intellect. In his further reading of the Posterior Analytics Philoponus aimed to share his understanding of the concept of subordinate sciences which are sciences that can be classified by genus and species. A notion he supported was the idea that some sciences depended on higher ones for some of their principles Philoponus even goes as far to suggest formulating a taxonomy of the sciences. He maintains that philosophy dialectic and all the sciences employ common axioms regarding philosophy in particular it discovers and demonstrates the very principles of every science. Importantly Philoponus decided to take on this work because he thought that Aristotles concepts were too difficult and needed explanation. It was not the first he was indebted to the earlier work of Theophrastus and Galen but Philoponuss work is the earliest to survive. Philoponuss train of thought is frequently obscure and much of the discussion being carried out chooses investigatory examples over blatant argument. He wished to expound the meaning of the Aristotelian text rather than raising objections. It is clear Philoponus engages vigorously with the earlier commentators on the Posterior Analytics thus like most ancient commentaries this one maintains certain importance for the constitution of the text on which it comments. Scotus a prominent Venetian printer and elegant producer of texts was actively publishing a line of these philosophical treatises which were frequently revised and reprinted. The first Latin translation by Theodosius was published in 1539 and was reprinted frequently until 1569. This work remains important to the evolving tradition of early sixteenth century Italian university logic. Rare in North America OCLC lists holdings for this edition only at University of Oklahoma as part of the History of Science Collection. Hieronymus Scotum (Scotus) hardcover books

ARISTOTLE 384 BC 322 BC GAZA Theodorus 1400 1475
De historia animalium lib. IX de partibus animalium et earum causis libri IIII de generatione animalium libri V.
Venice: Hieronymus Scotus 1545. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 157 x 106mm. 8 307pp. 13 leaves including final blank. Woodcut printers device of Scotus with personification of globe and motto FIAT PAX IN VIRTUTE Peace be with thee. Latin translation by Theodore Gaza. 12-line woodcut historiated initials at beginning of first chapter and at beginning of the Universalis generationis partitio. p. 224 of heraldry. Few woodcut initials throughout. Contemporary vellum; worn; spine and covers darkened; scattered stains worming affecting title next leaf and last 3 leaves; edges stained brown and gauffered to floral pattern. Sound copy enhanced by Latin marginalia in an contemporary hand. The Renaissance public as a part of their reading system frequently engaged Aristotles natural writings. Even at the height of this period at a time when Theodore Gaza had already produced his celebrated versions of Aristotles zoological corpus these works obtained wide recognition. <br/><br/>Aristotles zoological works edited by Theodore Gaza with Italian Renaissance commentary sparked on by the availability of Gazas text. Gazas version of the treatises were paraphrases of Aristotles zoological works but also included personal observations and information drawn from the other authors. Gaza in fact held a virtual monopoly on the biological works of Aristotle his translation completely overshadowing those before him and especially of his rival George of Trebizond. Gazas text had been used mainly as a source of quotations and only in philological and medical works such as Castigationes plinianae by Ermolao Barbaro or Benedettis Historia corporis humani. By 1521 starting with a course on the De Partibus animalium held in Bologna did the official Renaissance tradition of interpretation on Aristotles zoology take form. The Latin text which contributed to this renewed interest was none other than the elegant translation by Gaza. University Aristotelianism specifically that concerning the zoology was approached by the various interpreters in the context of systematic exploration of the encyclopedic work as a whole. The ample annotations of this volume showcase precisely this type of interaction with the evolving conversation. Gazas work throws light on Renaissance Aristotelianism carried out through the grid of scholastic commentary. Hieronymus Scotus hardcover books

This particular copy was cared for by Oxford institutions for a good part of its history then crossed into a New England personal library of a classical scholar sometime in the early 20th century. <br/><br/>This is the self-contained volume from the 1584-1587 collected edition of the works of Aristotle in Greek and the Metaphysica of Theophrastus. Friedrich Sylburg 1536-1596 was a German classical scholar who made important contributions to several popular Greek texts of the later sixteenth century like Estiennes Greek Thesaurus. In 1583 Sylburg resigned from an educational post he held at Lich and moved to Frankfurt to work as leading active editor for the enterprising Wechel publishers. The humanist printers flourished in three distinct cities; Paris Frankfurt and Hanau. Andreas Wechel settled the firm in Frankfurt and distinguished it mainly by publishing neo-Latin literature classical philology and works by Ramus and his followers. The relationship between Sylburg and the Wechel printers was a seamless match; this 1585 edition of Aristotle was praised for its great critical power and finesse. It is widely regarded as the authoritative edition of its kind. Sound example of a sixteenth century published work on Aristotelian principles born from the inventive relationship between scholar and press.Fabricius-Harles III 444; Hoffmann I 275 and 289.
