1565In-folio, (8), 369pp, (1), legatura in pergamena coeva, titolo manoscritto al dorso; rilegato con Tractatus tres de balneis Patavinis e con Tractatus de modo componendi Medicinas, & de dosi earum, e Antidotarium. Medico di origine veneta morto nel 1460, esercitò a Padova anche come insegnante presso la locale e prestigiosa Università di medicina, dove dai documenti risulta professore dal 1422 al 1441. La sua opera Consilia, stampata nei primi decenni del secolo successivo, è molto conosciuta e apprezzata. Viene anche ricordato per l’attività di chirurgo ed esperto di anatomia: si dice che abbia eseguito personalmente quattordici dissezioni complete. Trattandosi di uno studioso quattrocentesco, i suoi interessi botanici sono strettamente legati alla sua attività di medico nella preparazione dei medicamenti che provenivano per la maggior parte dal mondo vegetale. Il prestigio dei Consilia durerà per alcuni secoli e molti saranno gli autori di medicina che attingeranno alle sue informazioni scientifiche e alla struttura del libro, organizzato sapientemente nella discussione di 305 casi clinici comprendenti tutta la materia medica conosciuta, chirurgia e anatomia comprese. In-folio, (8), 369pp, (1), contemporary vellum binding, handwritten title on the spine; bound with Tractatus tres de balneis Patavinis and with Tractatus de modo componendi Medicinas, & de dosi earum, and Antidotarium. Doctor of Venetian origin who died in 1460, he also practiced in Padua as a teacher at the local and prestigious University of Medicine, where the documents prove him as professor from 1422 to 1441. His work Consilia, printed in the first decades of the following century, is well known and appreciated. He is also remembered for his activity as a surgeon and anatomy expert: he is said to have personally performed fourteen complete dissections. Being a fifteenth-century scholar, his botanical interests are closely linked to his activity as a doctor in the preparation of medicines that mostly came from the plant world. The prestige of the Consilia will last for a few centuries and many medical authors will draw on its scientific information and on the structure of the book, expertly organized in the discussion of 305 clinical cases including all known materia medica, surgery and anatomy included.
