1766réf. 62761Berlin Christian Friedrich Voss 1766. 8vo. An excellent copy in a late 19th century red half calf with five raised bands and gilt lettering to spine. Fore- and lower edge uncut. Upper edge coloured in red. Spine with a few scratches and a bit of wear. End-papers with annotations in pencil and remains of a removed book-plate. Internally in very nice condition with light occassional brownspotting. 8 298 pp. First edition of Lessing’s landmark work in the history of art theory. In Laokoon Lessing argues that each art form operates within its own distinct boundaries that the principles of poetry cannot be applied to sculpture or painting and vice versa. Lessing’s Laokoon was written as a response to Johann Winckelmann's ”Geschichte der Kunst des Alterthums” 1764. Lessing challenges Winckelmann’s interpretation of the famous Laocoon statue arguing that Winckelmann portrays the figure’s suffering as too noble and composed - an expression suitable for poetry but not for sculpture whose medium cannot convey inner emotion in the same way. “Laokoon is perhaps Lessing’s best known work outside Germany and it has had a world-wide influence. It takes its name from the famous statue discovered at Rome in the sixteenth century. It analyses the differences between the sculptor’s treatment of Laocoon wrestling with the serpents and Virgil’s treatment of the same theme and from there goes on to discuss the limits and limitations of all the arts. It contains the first clear statement of the truth which is now considered axiomatic that every art is subject to limitations and can achieve greatness only by a clear understanding of and self-restriction to its proper function. The most telling passages and those which have borne most fruit are those on poetry. Lessing knew more about this than about painting and sculpture for which he was entirely dependent on Winckelmann 210. His exposition of the themes of Homer and Sophocles is especially effective and he opened up a new prospect in the appreciation of Greek literature. Yet perhaps Lessing is best judged by the sum of his achievement. He was one of the principal figures in the Aufklärung the emancipation of German literature from the narrow classicism of the French school. It was he more than any other who laid the foundations of the intellectual primacy of German writers and thinkers in the nineteenth century a debt which they were not slow to acknowledge. Without attaching himself to any special philosophical school he consistently opposed error and dogmatism and in art in poetry in drama and in religion he provided new stimulation. In the words of Macaulay he was ‘beyond all dispute the first critic of Europe’.” PMM 213 PMM 213 hardcover

1913réf. 702611913. Stuttgart Verlag von Ferdinand Enke 1913 gr.-8° 8 264 pp. mit 24 darunter 14 farbigen Tafeln Halbleinenband d.Zt.; mit ExLibris von Arvo Ylppö. Erste Ausgabe! "Die Diskussion ob die Akute Rachitis oder Möller-Barlow'sche Krankheit wirklich ein typischer Skorbut ist beschäftigte weiterhin viele Untersuchen So bearbeitete 1912 Karl Hart 1876-1922 in Berlin diese Frage in Versuchen mit Rhesusaffen. In seiner Publikation "Über die experimentelle Erzeugung der Möller-Barlowschen Krankheit und ihre endgültige Identifizierung mit dem klassischen Skorbut" schrieb er: "Es ist mir zum ersten Male geglückt nachzuweisen daß beim Skorbut der Erwachsenen und bei der Möller-Barlow-Krankheit die gleichen Knochenveränderungen auftreten und damit den letzten endgültigen Beweis für die Identität beider Affektionen zu erbringen. An Stelle des nichtssagenden Verlegenheitsausdruckes M.-B. K.' sollte man nur von "kindlichem Skorbut' sprechen" eine Meinung die im Jahr davor auch auf der 73. Versammlung Deutscher Naturforscher und Aerzte in Hamburg geäußert worden ist. Harts "gewonnener Gesamteindruck" dass für die Entstehung des kindlichen Skorbuts eine individuelle Disposition eine sehr bedeutende Rolle spiele wurde offenbar durch seine Affenversuche bestätigt. Denn bei einseitiger Verfütterung von im Handel erhältlicher kondensierter Milch an zehn "noch nicht ausgewachsene" Rhesusaffen erkrankten im Beobachtungsjahr einige Tiere schon bald schwer andere erst später unter dem Bild das sich "vollkommen mit der menschlichen M.-B. K. deckt". Die Ursache sah Hart nicht in der Milch an sich sondern in der einseitigen Ernährung." Flamm H. Der Skorbut - eine heute vergessene Volkskrankheit. Wien Med Wochenschr 175 2025 pp.75-9 Carl Hart 1876-1922 "studierte zunächst an der Kaiser-Wilhelms-Akademie in Berlin; dann an der Universität in Erlangen; wo er 1901 promovierte. Er arbeitete hierauf am Pathologischen Institut in Dresden unter Schmorl; am Senckenbergischen Institut in Frankfurt unter Weigert und trat 1904 als Assistent in das Pathologische Institut des Krankenhauses in Friedrichshain; 1906 in das Pathologische Institut des Rudolf-Virchow-Krankenhauses in Berlin ein. 1907 wurde ihm die Prosektur und die Leitung der Bakteriologischen Untersuchungsstation am Auguste Viktoria-Krankenhaus übertragen. Überaus zahlreich sind seine Arbeiten zur pathologischen Anatomie der Gefässe und der Darmwand sowie der Thymusdrüse; seine Beiträge zur Endokrinologie; Dispositionslehre; Konstitutionspathologie und Erblichkeitsforschung; insbesondere aber zur pathologischen Anatomie der Tuberkulose; deren Probleme er nach allen Seiten zu betrachten bemüht war."
