Schweinsledereinband d.Zt. mit Schliessen. Paracelsus Theophrastus Philippus Aureolus Bombastus von Hohenheim. Erster - dritter Theil der grossen Wundartzney deß weitberhümpten bewerten vnd erfahrnen Theophrasti Paracelsi von Hohenheim der Leib vnd Wundartzney Doctoris. & Angebunden: Baderbüchlin. Sechs köstliche Tractat armen und reychen nutzlich und notwendig von wasserbädern . Mit fleyß und müe Doctor Adams von Bodenstein zu einem guten neuwen Jar publicirt. Die "Grosse Wundartzney" gehört zu den einflussreichsten chirurgischen Schriften der frühen Neuzeit und markiert einen Wendepunkt in der praktischen Wundbehandlung in der Ablehnung scholastischer Autoritäten und in der Hinwendung zu einer erfahrungsbasierten am Krankenbett gewonnenen Chirurgie. Der Frankfurter Druck von 1562 bietet in drei Teilen Paracelsus' Lehre von Wunden Schussverletzungen Brandwunden Knochenbrüchen Geschwülsten und anderen chirurgischen Erkrankungen dazu die ausführliche Abhandlung zur "Frantzosischen Kranckheit" Syphilis. Bei der vorliegenden Ausgabe handelt es sich um einen Nachdruck der zweibändigen "Grossen Wundartzney" nach der Augsburger Ausgabe von 1537. Den dritten Teil bildet die Schrift "Von der frantzosischen Kranckheit"; hierfür nutzten Weygand Han und Georg Raben den Nachdruck von 1553 als Vorlage und übernahmen Dessen Druckbogen aus dem Nachlass des Frankfurter Druckers Heinrich Gulfferich für einen Teil der Auflage sogar unverändert. Das angebundene "Baderbüchlin" in der Bearbeitung durch Adam von Bodenstein ist eine eigenständige sehr seltene Publikation über Wasser und Mineralbäder die Paracelsus' balneologische Vorstellungen popularisiert. In sechs "köstlichen Traktaten" richtet sich die Schrift ausdrücklich an "arme und reiche" um den Nutzen der Bäder für Prävention und Therapie verschiedenster Leiden darzulegen. Der Druck bei Peter Schmid in Mühlhausen im oberen Elsass ebenfalls 1562 steht in enger zeitlicher und inhaltlicher Nachbarschaft zur Wundartzney und ergänzt diese ideal um den Bereich der Badetherapie. Die Kombination von vollständiger Frankfurter Wundartzney alle drei Teile und dem zeitgleichen Mühlhauser Baderbüchlin in einem prachtvollen zeitgenössischen Schweinsledereinband mit Schnallen ist äußerst selten.

2026ref. LRB35016585Paris: Editions Recreasoft 2026 Language: English. Approximately 520 pages. English: Print-on-demand reprint. Original edition : 1916. Text in English. Theophrastus of Eresus in Lesbos born about 370 BCE is the author of the most important botanical works that have survived from classical antiquity. He was in turn student collaborator and successor of Aristotle. Like his predecessor he was interested in all aspects of human knowledge and experience especially natural science. His writings on plants form a counterpart to Aristotle's zoological works. In the Enquiry into Plants Theophrastus classifies and describes varieties-covering trees plants of particular regions shrubs herbaceous plants and cereals; in the last of the nine books he focuses on plant juices and medicinal properties of herbs. The Loeb Classical Library edition is in two volumes; the second contains two additional treatises: On Odours and Weather Signs. In De Causis Plantarum Theophrastus turns to plant physiology. Books One and Two are concerned with generation sprouting flowering and fruiting and the effects of climate. In Books Three and Four Theophrastus studies cultivation and agricultural methods. In Books Five and Six he discusses plant breeding; diseases and other causes of death; and distinctive flavours and odours. Theophrastus's celebrated Characters is of a quite different nature. This collection of descriptive sketches is the earliest known character-writing and a striking reflection of contemporary life. Book images are non-contractual. Editions Recreasoft. Softcover. New.
