Bodaeus von Stapel's groundbreaking edition constitutes the first illustrated edition of Theophrastus' masterpiece as well as the first with both Greek and Latin text. Furthermore von Stapel has not only collected all relevant commentaries and knowledge he has also added corrections and much foundational information turning the work into one of the most influential botanical works of the 17th century profoundly influencing the likes of Linnaeus and contributing significantly to the development of modern scientific botany. "This edition displays great care and research; the notes are numerous and learned and all botanical information to be gleaned from Aristotle Pliny Dioscorides and other ancient writers seems to be embodied in this work. The Greek text is Heinsius's; the Latin version is that of the editor who has placed Gaza's in the margin with frequent corrections. The conjectures of Scaliger Constantine and Salmasius are also incorporated. it has collected into one body the opinions of the old writers on the subject of the PLANTS. It contains some wood-cuts of the rarer species which are much better uncoloured than coloured." Dibdin II:498. The numerous woodcut plant illustrations were partly copied from other sources and partly made especially for this edition. Thus apart from being "one of the best and most thoughtfully prepared of all the editions of Theophrastos" Hunt our editor has also made original contributions that are of great importance. "It is interesting not only because of the brilliance of the editing but curiously enough to the American botanist as well for involving in the discussion certain species from Virginia other parts of the New World and Asia. The illustrations of these plants have been largely overlooked in botanical history because of their incidental presence in a work which might not be expected to contain anything of the sort. Some were merely borrowed from l'Ecluse or de Lobel but others seem original in this work" H.H. Bartlett: Fifty-five Rare Books - quoted by Hunt.At the height of the Renaissance with the expansion of the known world and the spreading of the book due to the invention of the printing press many new publications on plants appeared. Most of these publications however were primarily concerned with the medicinal qualities of individual plants and only few authors or editors took an interest in the general nature of the plants and how they could systematically be classified. One of the few exceptions was Bodaeus von Stapel. With his seminal 1644 edition of "Historia Plantarum" he focused on the overarching classification system of plants and took Theophrastus' work a step further adding essential commentaries and illustrations - illustrations that were to be copied for centuries after. These illustrations remain the standard illustrations of Theophrastus' foundational work. This edition of Theophrastus' "Historia Plantarum" became the standard edition of that earliest work on systematic botany and the edition that all serious scientific botanists of the 17th and 18th centuries will have studied. "Linnaeus in the practice of his favourite art of systematizing classified not only plants but the writers about them. The writers he distinguishes primarily as Botanists and Plant Lovers recognizing as Botanists only such as treat of plants from some philosophic or scientific point of view. Choosing his illustrations from annals of remote antiquity he names among the earliest of the Greeks who wrote of plants Hippocrates; but because he wrote of plants only in the interests of medicine Linnaeus styles him Father of Medicine. Similarly Aristotle. is down in the Linnaean list of ancient celebrities as Prince of Philosophers. To Theophrastus however he accords the title Father of Botany. From this opinion far from having been newly promulgated in Linnaeus's time there has been no dissenting voice. On the contrary Albert Haller one of the most learned men in Europe in his day and a botanist of such renown that Linnaeus held him in reverence and also in some fear denominates Theophrastus "the first of real botanists in point of time." Kurt Sprengel in the nineteenth century having rehearsed the names of a long line of ancient authors who had written more or less concerning plants says: "But the most illustrious of them all and the true father of botany was Theophrastus Eresius…." Greene Landmarks of Botanical History I:128.It is no wonder that Linnaeus should find in Theophrastus the Father of his own field - The "Historia Plantarum" was not only the earliest work on systematic botany it also contained Theophrastus' description of the formation of the plant seed the earliest account known and the best that was made for 2000 years.Hunt: 240; Pritzel: 9197; BM: V:2091; Dibdin: II:498. hardcover

Very scarce edition of Theophrastus' two main works. It is one of the earliest Latin editions of Gaza's esteemed translation in reality it is the third printing of the first Latin edition first issued 1483 then 1529 in 8vo and now 1534 of the works which together constitute the foundation of scientific botany. By Linnaeus Theophrastus is called "the father of Botany". This edition comprises both botanical works The History of Plants and The Causes of Plants which have survived in their entirety and are the earliest books of this kind in world literature."It is very strange that so much botanic knowledge should have been accumulated by the end of the fourth century and that so little if anything was added to it in ancient times. Theophrastos is not only the first botanic writer but also the greatest until Renaissance of the sixteenth century in Germany.The botany of Theophrastos and the zoölogy of Aristotle represents the climax of natural history in antiquity." Sarton in A History.Vol. I p. 558. "No study of plants of such breadth and quality had previously been conceived: botany now first appears as a distinct science with a comprehensive yet clearly defined field of enquiry." A.G.

Set in roman types with whole paragraphs in Greek 2 sizes and the dedication and some end matter in italic. 197 3 pp. First edition of one of the earliest printed books about colour translated from the Greek into Latin and with commentary by the Neapolitan physician and philosopher Simone Porzio 1497-1554. Usually attributed to Aristotle it is now thought to be the work of the peripatetic scholar and pupil of Aristotle Theophrastus.''As the author states at the end of the treatise it is intended rather to supply data for a detailed examination into the scientific theory of colour than to expound a complete thesis. He has realized that the development of colour in animals and plants depends to some extent on heat and he seems to suggest that heat and moisture are the controlling factors. It is of more value as a collection of observed facts than for any theory of the origin and development of colour in physical life'' Aristotle Minor Works Cambridge and London Loeb Classical Library 1936 p. 3.With some spotting on the title-page and some marginal tears not approaching the text but otherwise in very good condition and with large margins. Binding with the sewing supports broken a tear in the backstrip and some small stains.
