1550ref. 193590Lyon: Jean Frellon 1550. A combination of Arabic and European medicine A commentary on the pharmacopeia of Mesue known as the Antidotarium or Grabadin one of the most influential manuals for apothecaries in the late medieval and early Renaissance periods. "It familiarized Latin Europe with Arabic pharmacy and therapeutics and many hundred editions were issued in Europe during the Middle Ages" Campbell p. 76. This commentary sought to correct and clarify the text for students and apothecaries part of the wider sixteenth-century humanist effort to "purify" pharmaceutical texts. "In materia medica the scientific discussion in the 1510s to 1540s had the appearance of a crisis in which several trends conflicted with each other: the tradition of Arabic pharmacology the new humanist call for a return to ancient pharmacology and the empirical trend towards testing and botanical depiction. The heated controversy about the value of Arabic materia medica and the refined Renaissance commentary tradition on Arabic pharmacologists greatly helped to master this complexity: Renaissance botanists and pharmacologists successfully connected the information in Arabic sources with Greek and contemporary knowledge" Hasse pp. 296-7. After Venice Lyon was the city in which the most works of Arabic or pseudo-Arabic origin were printed in the sixteenth century. The title's "Ioannis filii Mesuae" reflects the traditional attribution of the Antidotarium to Yuhanna ibn Masawaih c.777857 known as Mesue the Elder. The work is now thought to be by an unidentified later author writing under his name usually called Mesue the Younger or pseudo-Mesue. This commentary is also anonymous but is sometimes attributed to the Franciscan friars Bartolomeo di Civitavecchia or da Orvieto and Angelo Paglia. It was first published in 1543 in Venice.

Opera sulle proprietà medicinali delle piante, divisa in tre libri, che si inserisce nel filone dei testi di botanica farmaceutica, in cui le piante, come i fiori e i frutti, vengono esaminati dal punto di vista della nomenclatura, della nascita della specie e delle proprietà medico-farmacologiche. Maranta individua qui nel cytisus la "medicago arborea" nota agli antichi per le sue proprietà di erba medica. Bartolomeo Maranta, medico e botanico nato a Venosa verso il 1500 e morto a Molfetta nel 1571. Allievo di Luca Ghini, fu un naturalista stimato formatosi presso il Giardino dei Semplici a Pisa, lavorò presso il Giardino botanico di Napoli dal 1554 al 1556, esperienza che mise a frutto dal 1568 a Roma progettando un nuovo giardino.

Durling 179. Edizione originale della prima opera sulle piante dell’Egitto e sull’opera considerata la più importante di Prospero Alpini; l’autore fu tra i primi botanici e medici del XVI secolo a studiare le piante per il loro specifico interesse botanico e non soltanto per gli utilizzi che se ne potevano fare in medicina; inoltre, il metodo autoptico adottato, sia sulle piante selvatiche che su quelle da lui coltivate, permise di fare in campo botanico grandi passi avanti. Sono qui rappresentate per la prima volta in un trattato di botanica europeo la pianta del caffè (?), del baobab (pianta e frutto) e della banana, i cui frutti vengono descritti come assai nutrienti, profumati ma un po’ pesanti per lo stomaco. Delle foglie e dei frutti si descrive la morfologia, l’utilizzo in cucina nel caso delle piante edibili, le proprietà benefiche e loro utilizzi nella preparazione di decotti. L’opera, di certo un trattato pioneristico, fu utilizzata come base sistemica per I successivi studi sulla flora egiziana. Le 49 xilografie, quasi tutte a piena pagina che illustrano piante, alberi e frutti, sono molto chiare e precise scientificamente. Il De balsamo è un approfondito trattato, anche questo in forma di dialogo, sulla materia con note storiche e scientifiche, con una illustrazione sulla pianta del balsamo, e la descrizione dei luoghi dove questa nasce, principalmente l’Egitto e l’Arabia, e i modi in cui viene utilizzata. Prospero Alpini (1553-1617), medico e botanico, ebbe l’occasione di viaggiare in Egitto quando divenne medico personale del console veneziano al Cairo, Giorgio Emo.

Durling 179. Original edition of the first work on plants of Egypt and on the work considered the most important by Prospero Alpini; the author was among the first botanists and doctors of the sixteenth century to study plants for their specific botanical interest and not only for the uses that could be made of them in medicine; moreover, the autopsy methods adopted, both on wild plants and on those cultivated by him, made it possible to make great strides in the botanical field. The coffee plant (?), The baobab (plant and fruit) and the banana plant are represented here for the first time in a European botanical treatise, whose fruits are described as very nutritious, fragrant but a little heavy for the stomach. . The morphology of the leaves and fruits are described, their use in the kitchen in the case of edible plants, their beneficial properties and their uses in the preparation of decoctions. The work, certainly a pioneering treatise, was used as a systemic basis for subsequent studies on Egyptian flora. The 49 woodcuts, almost all full page illustrating plants, trees and fruits, are very clear and scientifically accurate. De balsamo is an in-depth treatise, also in the form of a dialogue, on the subject with historical and scientific notes, with an illustration on the balsam plant, and the description of the places where it was born, mainly Egypt and Arabia, and ways in which it is used. Prospero Alpini (1553-1617), physician and botanist, had the opportunity to travel to Egypt when he became the personal physician of the Venetian consul in Cairo, Giorgio Emo. DSB pp. 124-125.
