"Edizione originale" di questo studio sugli effetti benefici dell’equitazione per la salute umana. “Giuseppe Benvenuti (1723-1810) per circa 30 anni esercitò la professione di medico nei celebri Bagni di Lucca. In queste ‘riflessioni’ attinge largamente agli scritti di Sydenham, Baglivi, Boerhaave, ecc., dissertando degli effetti dell’equitazione sulla circolazione sanguigna, dell’elasticità delle fibre muscolari e dei vasi arteriosi e linfatici. L’equitazione è raccomandata per la sua azione di stimolo sull’attività degli ‘spiriti animali’, sulla funzione epatica, la digestione, la circolazione linfatica e - quasi panacea universale - come rimedio contro l’arteriosclerosi, l’idropisia, l’apoplessia, l’isteria e varie altre malattie. Lo scritto si conclude con una serie di consigli sulla pratica di questo sport e con varie norme di igiene”. Così Diz. Biografico Italiani, VIII, p. 675. Cfr. anche Wellcome,II, p. 145 - Blake, p. 41. Solo lievi tracce d’uso altrimenti esempl. marginoso, ben conservato.

"L'olandese Gerardo van Swieten (1700-72), allievo di Boerhaave, chiamato da Maria Teresa nel 1745 a Vienna vi creò la Scuola di Medicina. Fu uno dei fondatori della medicina clinica: i suoi commenti agli aforismi di Boerhaave sono da considerarsi come uno dei più interessanti documenti del neo-ippocratismo".
