See images for condition. About the book >.>.> First published in Venice in 1627, Tabulae Anatomicae LXXVIII presents 78 finely engraved plat…es by the celebrated Italian anatomist Julius Casserius (Iulius Casserius), issued posthumously with commentary by Daniel Bucretius. Printed by Evangelista Deuchinus, this edition helped establish modern anatomical illustration in the early seventeenth century. The folio includes detailed studies of the skeleton, muscles and organs, remarkable for their precision and for their use by later anatomists such as Harvey and Vesling. A milestone of Renaissance medical publishing, prized today for both its scientific and artistic significance. (OS).

Add to basketBrauner Original-Halblederband im Format 43 x 29 cm mit blindgeprägtem Rückentitel, blindgeprägter Ornamentik sowie großen Lederecken. Der Band befindet sich im mit Stoff ausgeschlagenen Original-Schuber und war ursprünglich noch eingeschweißt (Folie wurde zu Prüfzwecken entfernt). Umfassendes anatomisches Werk des italienischen… Mediziners Julius Casserius (Giulio Cesare Casseri, 1552 - 1616), eines Schülers des Anatomen und Begründers der modernen Embryologie, Girolamo Fabrizio (Girolamo Fabrizio, 1533 - 1619). Casserius hatte an der Universität Padua einen Lehrstuhl für Anatomie, Chirurgie und Physik inne. Seine Sammlung von insgesamt 97 anatomischen Zeichnungen, die er selbst nicht mehr zu vollenden vermochte, erschien erstmals im Jahre 1627 im Anhang eines Werkes seines Schülers Adriaan van de Spiegel (1578 - 1625), weitere 9 Tafeln wurden kurze Zeit darauf unter dem Titel "De Formatu Foetu" veröffentlicht, die später ebenfalls Eingang in van de Spiegels Werk fanden. Der hier vorliegende Faksimile-Band, die auf eine Originalausgabe der Württembergischen Landesbibliothek zurückgeht, vereint ebenfalls beide Sammlungen. Er wurde auf Hahnemühle-Papier gedruckt und von der Buchbinderei Richard Mayer in Stuttgart gebunden. Es erschien eine Halbleinen-Ausgabe in 2500 Exemplaren sowie eine auf 300 Exemplare limitierte Vorzugsausgabe in Halbleder, die hier angeboten wird. Neuwertiges, ungelesenes Exemplar dieses beeindruckenden anatomischen Grundlagen-Werkes in der hochwertigen Vorzugsausgabe.

Add to basket2 parts in 1 volume. Beautiful first edition of a ground-breaking work on the anatomy of the vocal and auditory organs, written by the well-known anatomist and surgeon Giulio Casserio (1561?-1616). It was his first publication and contains 2 separate treatises that were issued together, the first on the anatomy of the larynx and… the second on hearing and the anatomy of the ear. Although the colophon of the first part is dated 1601 and that of the second part 1600, the second treatise also refers to observations made in 1601. "As did many of the anatomists who preceded him, Casseri followed Galen, noting that the first part of his own method was the true anatomical method, the one Galen treated in the first book and the first passage of De usu partium" (Klestinec). Casserio made some important contributions to the science of the anatomy of the sense organs, particularly the vocal and auditory organs. He based much of his work on zoötomic research and many of the 34 large and beautifully designed engravings show zoötomic subjects, including the vocals organs of a grasshopper, a dog, a rat and a frog. His research covered both the superficial and deep muscles and includes the first precise description of the two cricothyroid muscles.With 3 owners' inscriptions at the foot of the title page, 2 struck through but partly legible and the third reading "ex libri Francisci Ardinone". With some marginal worm holes and a water stain in the gutter margin of the first 3 preliminary quires and an occasional leaf with browned patches, but still a good copy and with large margins. The binding has some stains, minor abrasions, and repairs to the upper part of the spine, but is also still good. An important and magnificent medical work with spectacular anatomical engravings.l Garrison & Morton 286; Krivatsky 2199; LeFanu, Notable medical books (1976), p. 57; Norman 410; Roberts & Tomlinson, pp. 259-263; Wellcome 1333; for the author: DSB III, pp. 98-99; C. Klestinec, Theaters of anatomy: students, teachers, and traditions of dissection in renaissance Venice (2011). 17th-century sheepskin parchment, sewn at 4 stations, title in decorated border gold-tooled in 2nd of 5 spine compartments. With an engraved title page with the title in a large oval scrollwork cartouche surrounded by and incorporating dozens of skeletons and skulls of people and animals, 2 full-page engraved portraits (of the dedicatee Ranuccio I Farnese, Duke of Parma, and the author) and 34 full-page anatomical engravings on integral leaves, most containing multiple figures, numerous woodcut headpieces, tailpieces and other decorations, numerous woodcut decorated initials (at least 8 series) and cast fleurons. Set in roman types with incidental italic, Greek and Hebrew. Pages: [60], 191, [1 blank]; 126, [1], [1 blank] pp. including engraved title-page, 2 portraits, and illustrations.
