1777réf. I14F46A1C75MVienna: Johann Thomas Edlen von Trattner 1777. Mottled calf gold-tooled spine brown morocco spine label marbled endpapers red edges. 8vo. Medical ordinances and a list of the new taxes on nearly 2000 named medicinal components. As the Habsburgs in the 1770s attempted to strengthen their control over the professional standards and business activity of pharmacists and medical personnel in their realms the authorities imposed new taxes on behalf of Empress Maria Theresa covering all components of medicaments described and prescribed in the Pharmacopoea Austriaco-Provinciali the official book of pharmacological recipes for the entire Habsburg empire with editions published almost every year from 1776 to ca. 1822. The ordinance on the subject was promulgated on 25 November 1775 and took affect on 1 January 1776 so the 1776 edition was clearly the first but the 1790 edition calls itself the second. It is therefore not certain whether the present copy is the true second edition or a reissue of the first. The ordinance pp. 3-8 of the preliminaries is signed by Christian August Graf von Seilern Statthalter and Thomas Ignaz Freiherr von Pöct Kanzler and contains seven points including sanctions and criminal procedures in case of fraud. Trattner was printer and bookseller to the Imperial Court.Foot of spine damaged otherwise in good condition.l Cf. Blake p. 24 1776 ed. Johann Thomas Edlen von Trattner, unknown

Problems with the quality of the services provided led to the establishment of a professional military pharmaceutical service in 1794. To provide the medical support that the army needed garrison hospital pharmacies were built. Patzowsky published a German edition of the present pharmacopoeia in the same year: Oestrreichischen Militär-Pharmacopoea zum Gebrauche der Oestrreichischen Fieldärzte Vienna A.A. Patzowsky 1795.

Joannis Meyer Contemporary calf richly gold-tooled spine with a tulip in 5 of the 7 compartments red edges. 2 works in 1 volume. 1 1 blank 14 274 30; 54 2 pp. Ad 1: Unrecorded first issue of the rare third edition of the Ghent pharmacopoeia the first to call itself a "pharmacopoea" instead of "antidotarium" in the title.This copy differs slightly from all others recorded in that it contains a somewhat different preface and approval which is signed only by A.C.J. van Rossum and dated 1755. It therefore lacks the more expanded approval from 1756 of the professors of the University of Louvain including that of Van Rossum as well as the subsequent dedication to Empress Maria Theresa. The present variant is therefore almost certainly an earlier issue.Ad 2: New edition of the taxa regulating the prices of pharmacists in Ghent. The previous version dates from 1690 and this new edition was published to reflect the changes made in the pharmacopoeia of 1756.With the binding worn at the spine and somewhat along the extremities.

1800réf. I14DVA32F2X0Leiden: Abraham and Jan Honkoop 1800. Contemporary mottled boards. 12mo. Rare second edition of "the first general as distinguished from hospital 'pharmacopoeia' compiled by an American" Cowen first published at Paris in 1798. The first part of the book is a classification of diseases and is taken word for word from the influential 1769 nosology by the Scottish physician William Cullen. The second part is a pharmacopoeia divided into materia medica and composite medicines. The introduction notes that it is based on the author's notes made at the University of Edinburgh the London pharmacopoeia and Joseph Townsend's The physicians' vade mecum 1794 p. x. Between the two parts can be found a list translating the Latin names of the chemical preparations "which not all readers will view as sufficiently legitimate" p. 77 into the modern English and French nomenclature.William Tazewell d. 1832 was an American physician who had studied in Edinburgh and in 1797-1800 was secretary to Elbridge Gerry in Paris. After returning to the United States Tazewell set up a medical practice in Williamsburg and later moved to Virginia. In 1803 he presented copies of his Vade-mecum to George Washington and Thomas Jefferson the latter writing that "it has really brought the whole science of diseases & remedies within the shortest compass possible and not meddling with the details of the science himself it presents exactly such a general view of every part of it as Jefferson often wishes to take" Cowen.With a small price in pen on the first flyleaf.

1661réf. JC5F71XARFAUAntwerp 1661. 4to. Joris Willemsens I 18th-century vellum faded manuscript title on spine. With an integral engraved architectural title page by Petrus van Caukercken after Abraham van Diepenbeeck with the title on a drapery held by 2 putti in an arch and flanked by figures of Claudius Galenus and Masawaih al-Mardini views of a botanical garden and an apothecary's shop below and Jesus with numerous religious and allegorical figures above in a cloud letterpress title page with a woodcut decoration a divisional title for part 2 woodcut tailpieces woodcut decorated initials 5 series. Set in roman and italic with incidental Greek textura and pharmacological signs. 1 1 blank 46 285 = 281 32 1 blank pp. Rare first and only edition in Latin of the first and only official pharmacopoeia for Antwerp containing hundreds of medicinal recipes and throwing a great deal of light on 17th-century medical practice in the Low Countries. The work's separate part with the title "Selectiora chymica" shows the rising importance of chemistry in the production of medicines. Although Plantin published an important and influential 1568 Antwerp edition of Valerius Cordus's Dispensatorium first published posthumously at Nürnberg in 1546 it was not produced by order of any official municipal body. In 1624 the magistrates of Antwerp set up a Collegium Medicum which did declare that medicines were to be prepared following Cordus until further notice. In 1659 the Antwerp Collegium Medicum decided to produce their own pharmacopoeia primarily at the impetus of their secretary and future director Michiel Boudewijns 1591-1681 best known as the father of modern medical ethics. Although his name does not appear on the title-page the book does attribute the 18-page preface to him and he was probably the principal compiler of the book. The decision to compile it makes explicit reference to those published at Augsburg 1564 Rome 1583 Amsterdam 1636 and Brussels 1641 but Valerius may have remained the most important source. No apothecaries were officially consulted in the compilation of the pharmacopoeia reflecting the growing status of physicians and declining status of apothecaries.Although the letterpress title-page is dated 1660 the engraved title-page when present is apparently always dated 1661 and in some copies the 1660 has been corrected to 1661. The work has extensive preliminaries with dedications notes to the reader laudatory verses etc. but some copies include an unsigned bifolium inserted after a2 containing an additional dedication not present here. The present copy does have the rarer addendum leaf at the end and an addendum slip on Q3r supplying the omitted last line of that page with the quire signature and catchword below it. The addendum leaf has three blind impressions of the type for this addendum slip in its head margin.With minimal wear at the edges.

This particular facsimile edition is remarkably important as it marked the first time that a complete full facsimile of the Codex Manesse was produced. Prior to the publication of this edition only a part facsimile had been produced in Paris in 1852 and a facsimile of just the miniatures was produced in 1886. Later facsimiles were produced however none better this edition ensuring it remains the most coveted by libraries and collectors. The publisher ensured that this facsimile was an accurate reproduction replicating the library stamps early annotations uneven page edges and discolouration to the pages which feature with the original manuscript. This edition is permanently on display at the University of Heidelberg. The University of Heidelberg holds the original manuscript where it is rarely displayed due to its fragility. A copy of this facsimile is instead displayed to visitors. Anton Kippenberger 1874-1950 the director of the publisher Insel-Verlag had aspired since 1920 to produce the technically complex reproduction of the manuscript. "The production process however was considerably more elaborate than for the Gutenberg Bible. 137 full-page miniatures in up to eight colours and more than 700 pages of text had to be reproduced . The 1st August deadline for the completion of the first delivery could not be met as the hand-made paper from Zanders did not fulfil the quality requirements . Only a third delivery of paper fulfilled all requirements . The Manessische Liederhandschrift was an international sensation. For scholars it was a great gain for the codex had by no means been accessible to everyone even in Heidelberg". Sarkowski Heidelberg University Library.
