"The treatise is divided into 4 books, the first on the repast in general and fruits and legumes; the second on animals, fowl and game; the third on fish; and the fourth on beverages." (Bitting p. 344) First published in 1627, Ludovicus Nonnius's Diaeteticon was a significant source for understanding the dietary recommendations and medical perspectives of the 17th century. It provides insights into the historical development of medical knowledge, particularly in the field of nutrition and dietetics. The 17th century was a time of evolving ideas in medicine, including the understanding of the relationship between diet and health. Works like Nonnius's "Diaeteticon" contribute to the historical understanding of early modern medical practices. Ludovic Nunez , by his Latin name Ludovicus Nonnus or Ludovicus Nonnius , is a Flemish doctor, born in Antwerp in 1553 and died after 1645. He was the son of a Portuguese surgeon who had followed the Spanish armies into the Netherlands. He traveled extensively in Italy . We do not know the exact date of his death; but he was still alive in 1645 when he signed the second edition of his treatise on food. His erudition was unusual and he maintained correspondence with several scholars, Justus Lipsius among others. The first edition of 1727 is strictly the same as the one here offered, published in 1645. The work contains everything that the ancients wrote about food. The first book gives general considerations on meals, fruits and vegetables; the second is devoted to meat, game, poultry; the third to fish and the last to drinks: habits of drinking iced, hot mixtures of wine and water; Empedocles' opinions on wine, why Pythagoras did not drink wine, Asclepiades ' magnificent praise of wine; the nutritional qualities of wine, the different species of wine, old wines; the barbarians who drink pure wine; how to mix wine; one chapter concerns mead (in Latin, Mulsum); wine diseases; beer, palm wine, cider. Bitting p. 344; Hirsch II, 391; Vicaire 626.

Ludovicus Nonnius, a friend of Rubens- who painted his portrait, now in British National Gallery- descended from converted Portugese jews ( maranos ) who had fled to Antwerp. His non latinised name was Luis Nuñez. He dedicated his book to Nicolas Rockox, burgomaster of Antwerp and also friend of Rubens. Nonnius was a 17th century humanist. His main occupation was medicine. He published one of the first books on dietetics. With Rubens , Justus Lipsius and Rockox he shared the interest in Classical Antiquity and numismatics. This book, consisting of three parts ; Julius Caesar, Augustus and Tiberius is based on Hubert Gotlzius' work on the same subject. This is the first edition. A second edition was published in 1644 by Balthasar Plantin Moretus.

Anvers, Petrus et Johannes Belleros, 1616. Petit in-8 de (16), 176, (16) pages ; vélin rigide de l'époque. Première édition du premier traité diététique et gastronomique sur la consommation de poisson. Nonnius s'attache en particulier à démontrer les bienfaits de cette consommation pour la santé, son intérêt nutritionnel mais également gastronomique. Il décrit 37 types de poissons, leurs caractéristiques, habitat, vertus et préparation, avec de nombreuses citations d'auteurs anciens et modernes. Après l'avis au lecteur figure un petit glossaire multilingue. « Une des familles de médecins les plus notoires des anciens Pays-Bas fut certainement celle des Nuñez, Nunes, nom aussi latinisé en Nonnius, qui s'est pleinement intégrée dans la société néerlandaise des XVIe et XVIIe siècles. [.] son fils Ludovicus Nonnius (1553-1645/633), après des études médicales à Louvain, où il se lia d'amitié avec Juste Lipse, eut une pratique privée florissante à Anvers. Ce fut un vrai humaniste, savant, historien, poète et numismate. Son livre sur la diététique a été utilisé jusqu'au XIXe siècle, mais il est probablement encore mieux connu par son portrait, peint par Rubens, dont il était le médecin privé. Nonnius fut un des fondateurs du collegium medicum d'Anvers en 1620. » (Hilde De Ridder-Symoens, « Les étudiants marranes aux Pays-Bas (XVIe et XVIIe siècles) », Étudiants de l'exil : Migrations internationales et universités refuges [en ligne].)
