1751ref. AQ34346London: Printed for J. Robinson 1751. 4 278 273-287pp 1. Complete despite erratic pagination. Modern gilt-tooled green morocco contrasting red morocco lettering-piece. Short tear to leaf U4 very occasional light spotting. An enlarged edition printed in the year after the first of a curious collection of comic advertisements found in coffee houses Vauxhall gardens and London theatres. The extracts - though primarily eccentric often outlandish and somewhat perverse pleas for some unorthodox service or amorous encounter - include the occasional theatrical notice notably a printed barb directed by David Garrick towards fellow player James Quinn; and in an infrequent foray into sporting life an amusing advertisement placed by a presumably male lovestruck spectator at a cricket match: 'Whereas on Monday last at the Cricket Match in the Artillery Ground was observ'd a young Woman dress'd in a blue and white washing gown a black petticoat and a black Beaver Hat with an Orange Ribbon round it.If the said young Woman will be pleased to describe a Place Where she may de directed or be spoken with may hear of honourable Proposals'. A third and final edition appeared in 1759. All editions are scarce the second is no exception; ESTC records copies at just two locations in the British Isles Cambridge and Oxford and two further in North America Harvard and Washington.

1826In 16, pp. 118 + (2). Mancanze risarcite al dorso. Qualche abrasione ai piatti. Br. ed. Opera scientifica di divulgazione popolare sulla cura degli occhi. L'A. spiega come gli occhi debbano essere preservati e che si debba avere "moderazione nell'usarli" rivolgendosi in particolare a chi studia e lavora di notte. Bisogna inoltre fare attenzione alle diverse temperature e qualita' dell'aria: gli occhi sono "sempre irritati quando l'aria contiene particelle saline e muriatiche... oltre questi gaz micidiali, la calce, il gesso, l'arsenuico e una massa dis sostanze simili, alterando la purita' dell'atmosfera, nuocono in particolare agli occhi...". Allo stesso modo bisogna prestare cura all'alimentazione: quando i cibi sono "acri, salati e carichi di droghe, riscaldano il sangue e lo determinano verso la testa. Ne' meno nuoce la troppa qualita' d'alimenti...". Quindi l'amore, la passione piu' nociva per la vista: "abbiamo gia' parlato degli effetti della eccessiva perdita del liquor seminale...": tutti coloro che praticano troppo "il giovane il cui ardore non conosce limiti, l'ammogliato di fresco che provoca continuamente piaceri snervanti, il mastrupratore che si sfinisce nella solitudine.... debbono aspettarsi un indebolimento della vista precoce e una totale perdita della medesima...". Seguono molti altri consigli sul modo di preservare gli occhi, un elenco di varie tipologie di occhi. In fine le considerazioni sulle cagioni della miopia o vista corta. Antonio Scarpa nacque a Lorenzaga di Motta di Livenza il 9 maggio 1752. Studio' a Padova dove segui' anche i corsi universitari per la Medicina e Chirurgia laureandosi il 19 maggio 1770; fu allievo di Morgagni e di Caldani. Nel 1805 Napoleone lo invito' a occupare la cattedra di clinica chirurgica e di operazioni chirurgiche. Molte e notevoli per importanza ed originalita' di contenuto sono le opere che Scarpa diede alle stampe. Il nome di Scarpa si afferma come anatomico nel 1773 con la pubblicazione della sua prima nota De structura fenestrae rotundae auris, et de tympano secundario, ma una piu' completa relazione delle sue scoperte anatomiche ed anatomo-comparative sopra l?organo dell?udito. Dal 1800 la sua attivita' va sempre piu' orientandosi ed intensificandosi per la chirurgia; impegnatosi nell?esercizio e nell?insegnamento della clinica oculistica, pubblica la sua opera magistrale sulle malattie degli occhi, alla quale seguono dal 1801 al 1816 altre quattro edizioni. La quinta perfezionata ed ampliata porta il titolo di Trattato di malattie degli occhi ed e' del 1821. A cominciare dalla prima edizione di quest?opera sulle malattie degli occhi, furono fatte traduzioni in francese, tedesco ed inglese.

First appearance of these importent papers by the discoverer of oxygen. "In 1785 Scheele revised his views on the nature of air and fire the papers offered as a result of Lavoisier's observations on the increase in weight on burning phosphorus in air. He says he had also often observed the formation of water on the explosion of a mixture of inflammable air hydrogen and fire air in a bottle but had thought that the moisture was in the gases as Priestly had done in 1781.Parkinson III:p.228. "It is only the exact observation of Lavoisier which had helped me out of the dream."Scheele. unknown
