48pp., disbound. A fund established by the London Lord Mayor to work more closely with Pasteur in Paris (inoculation, rabies, letters of testimony, tables of success rates, etc.). Formerly in the library of the Birmingham Medical Institute.
First edition, 8vo (215 x 140 mm), [4], viii, 77, [1], 4, 10pp., including two addenda, 'Hydrophobic Syringe' & 'Horse Provender', half-title, one engraved plate 'Hydrophobic Injection', recent morocco-backed patterned paper boards, spine gilt lettered direct. Henry Sully was surgeon to Wiveliscombe Infirmiary and to the Duke of Cumberland. This work records a number of local rabies cases and repeats directions given earlier by Somerset doctors that the effects of rabies can be prevented if the saliva is wiped away and the bite thoroughly washed. Washing the wound with antiseptic is still the first treatment for rabies. The understanding of rabies did not progress until Louis Pasteur published 'Sur la Rage' in 1881. The article on Horse Provender is about Sully's system for feeding horse chaff via a chute from a loft above the stable.
1779In 12°; (4), IX, (3), 130 (ma 187), (2) pp. Bella legatura coeva in tutta pelle maculata. Dorso a 4 nervi con titolo e fregi in oro al dorso (qualche piccolo forellino di tarlo al dorso, ininfluente). Tagli spruzzati di rosso. Il barone Antoine Portal (Gaillac, 5 gennaio 1742 – Parigi, 23 luglio 1832) fu un celebre medico, anatomista, professore universitario, biologo, storico della medicina e scrittore francese. Professore di anatomia al Collège de France e poi al Jardin du roi, nonché fondatore dell’Académie Nationale de Médecine, fu il medico personale di tutti vari sovrani di Francia. La sua opera più importante fu l’Histoire de l’anatomie et de la chirurgie. Secondo Garrison-Morton, Portal “improved the obstetric forceps, [and] was a famous teacher in Paris”. Qui viene presentata la prima edizione stampata a Yverdon nel 1779 del suo celebre studio dedicato alla rabbia ed al modo di curarla. L’autore prende lo spunto dallo stato confusionale degli studi sulla materia e dalle cure utilizzate per trattarla spesso più legate a leggende e tradizioni popolari che a vere e proprie conoscenze mediche. Portal riordina così in modo corretto e sistematico le conoscenze scientifiche sull’argomento e propone cure reali ed efficaci coma l’immediata cauterizzazione delle ferite, l’utilizzo di preparati a base di antimonio, lo strofinamento con unguenti mercuriali ed anche una dieta a base di verdure. L’autore, fra i primi in assoluto, definisce la rabbia come una malattia del sistema nervoso, comparando la natura dell’agente infettivo a quello della sifilide, tubercolosi. In fondo al volume un’appendice bibliografica, contenente la serie delle “Ouvrages sur la rage et les traitmens divers contre cette maladie”. L’opera ebbe un notevole successo e varie riedizioni. ” Tra gli scrittori francesi del XVIII secolo interessati alla rabbia è da segnalarsi Antoine Portal (1742-1832) che ci ha lasciato uno dei più importanti contributi sull’argomento” ( Theodorides “Storia della rabbia”, 1986, p. 121). Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione ed in bella legatura coeva. Dezeimeris, III/p. 750; Wellcome, IV/p. 418.
