Lyons: Antoine Cellier 1659. First Description of Aortic Stenosis RIVIERE Lazare 1589-1655. Observationum medicarum & curationum insignium centurae tres. . . . Edited by Simeon Jacoz. 4to. 8 311 9pp. Lyons: Antoine Cellier 1659. 225 x 167 mm. Speckled sheep c. 1659 rubbed small wormhole in front cover. Some foxing browning & dampstaining old repair to one leaf. Very good copy. Old signature and notes on endpapers. First Edition. Riviere was the first to describe stenosis of the aortic valve from a case that he treated in 1646. GM 2727 cites Riviere's description of this condition in his Opera medica universa 1674 of which the present work is the first edition; the description appears here on p. 177 and is entitled "Cordis palpitatio & pulsus inaequalitas." Riviere also brought Paracelsian iatrochemistry into the curriculum of the University of Montpellier and it was under his auspices that Alexander Fraser introduced the Harviean theory of the circulation into the University's curriculum in 1636. An edition of the present work was published in The Hague in the same year as this Lyons edition. As Riviere was French it is reasonable to presume that the Lyons edition was first. Hirsch.

London: Printed for G. Hawkins and sold by T. Cooper 1735. FIRST EDITION. ONE OF 750 COPIES. 263 x 207 mm. 10 1/4 x 8 1/8". 6 p.l. 106 pp. 1 leaf errata. FIRST EDITION. ONE OF 750 COPIES. SUPERB OLIVE GREEN CRUSHED MOROCCO BY RIVIERE & SON stamp-signed on front turn-in cover with lettered central panel surrounded by four onlaid sections of darker green morocco outer frame of leafy vines emanating from the tips of the fan-palm-shaped cornerpieces each of these compartments with a blind-stamped leaping stag on a stippled gold ground raised bands spine with gilt-ruled compartments gilt titling gilt-ruled turn-ins all edges gilt. In a somewhat worn fleece-lined burgundy buckram chemise and marbled paper slipcase. Engraved allegorical frontispiece featuring Diana and Apollo by Scotin after Gravelot. Front pastedown with morocco ex-libris of Alfred Barmore Maclay. Foxon S-562; Hayward 158; Rothschild 1932; Schwerdt II 166. Leather on spine uniformly sunned to olive brown as expected with green morocco text perhaps lightly washed and pressed in keeping with bibliophilic fashion at the time of binding occasional faint marginal smudges otherwise fine internally and in a very lustrous binding with no signs of wear. This is the first edition of the most popular work by Somerville 1675-1742 a mock-heroic poem about hunting in an apt and very striking binding by a renowned English workshop. Divided into four books of Miltonic blank verse "The Chace" is considered to be one of the finest didactic poems of the first half of the 18th century. The text covers hounds and their kennels along with the hunting of hare fox and otter and there are digressions that bring in methods of the chase in exotic localities. Most of the hunts described are accompanied by dogs and set in England past or present but the poet occasionally strays far afield to describe lion stalking or the hunting habits of Genghis Khan. According to Schwerdt the book was "highly approved of by the first literary characters of his day." The extraordinarily handsome binding by Riviere incorporates the hunting motif with four stags appearing to chase one another around the covers. Riviere is one of the foremost names in English binding partly because the firm did consistently fine work and partly because it was so long in business. Robert Riviere began as a bookseller and binder in Bath in 1829 then set up shop as a binder in London in 1840; in 1881 he took his grandson Percival Calkin into partnership at which time the firm became known as Riviere & Son and the bindery continued to do business until 1939. Our volume comes from the library of Alfred Barmore Mackay 1871-1944 who after a very brief career at his family's bank devoted himself to collecting books art and antiques engaging in equestrian sports and designing a sumptuous garden at his Florida estate now a state park. Printed for G. Hawkins, and sold by T. Cooper unknown
