Lespleigney Thibault (14 results)

Only known copy of the Jean Ruel issue of the very rare second(?) Paris edition of one of the most important early pharmacological books, with about 250 medicinal recipes arranged alphabetically, written by Thibault Lespleigney (1496-1550), apothecary and professor of medicine and pharmacology at Tours, where he first published it as Dispensarium medicinarum in 1538. It inevitably owes something to the ca. 1100 Antidotarium Nicolai, first printed in 1471 and almost the only comprehensive book on the subject when Lespleigney wrote, but it also foreshadows the pharmacopoeias.The term pharmacopoeia was coined only in 1561, but is now used to refer to a collection of recipes officially authorized by a government or medical or pharmaceutical association, the first being Valerius Cordus, Dispensatorium (Nürnberg, written in 1542 but published posthumously in 1546). Before that books of recipes by leading pharmacologists served a similar role without any official authorization. Lespleigney's was the most important in France and enormously influential. François Chappuys revised, corrected and expanded Lespleigney's text for the second edition (Lyon, 1539), giving it the present title, and nearly all later editions, including the present, follow his revised text. The fore-edge fold of H5/6 was carelessly opened, so that the upper outside corner of H5 is attached to H6 instead of H5, a couple pages show minor smudges and there is an occasional small marginal stain or tear, but the book is otherwise in very good condition and almost untrimmed. The boards are slightly bowed but the binding is also in very good condition.l Cf.

Crown 16mo in 8s (12 x 8 cm). 229, (11) pp. With a 6-line space (with a printed guide letter) left for a manuscript initial (not filled in) and 2 vine-leaf ornaments, Vervliet 56 & 80. Set in 3 sizes of roman type, the smallest including special pharmacological characters. Modern sheepskin parchment, but with gilt edges perhaps from an earlier binding. Only known copy of the Jean Ruel issue of the very rare second (?) Paris edition of one of the most important early pharmacological books, with about 250 medicinal recipes arranged alphabetically, written by Thibault Lespleigney (1496-1550), apothecary and professor of medicine and pharmacology at Tours, where he first published it as Dispensarium medicinarum in 1538. It inevitably owes something to the ca. 1100 Antidotarium Nicolai, first printed in 1471 and almost the only comprehensive book on the subject when Lespleigney wrote, but it also foreshadows the pharmacopoeias. The term pharmacopoeia (meaning drug-compounding) was coined only in 1561, but is now used to refer to a collection of recipes officially authorized by a government or medical or pharmaceutical association, the first being Valerius Cordus, Dispensatorium (Nürnberg, written in 1542 but published posthumously in 1546). Before that books of recipes by leading pharmacologists served a similar role without any official authorization. Lespleigney's was the most important in France and enormously influential. About 10 editions appeared from 1538 to 1543 in Tours, Lyon, Paris and even Antwerp and Venice. François Chappuys revised, corrected and expanded Lespleigney's text for the second edition (Lyon, 1539), giving it the present title, and nearly all later editions, including the present, follow his revised text. The present edition clearly resembles Arnoul and Charles l'Angelier's 1541 Paris edition in style and layout, but does not follow it line by line. We have not seen the 1540 l'Angelier edition, with the same pagination as 1541, so they may be two issues of a single edition. We have also not seen what may be other issues of the present 1543 Paris edition, reported under various publishers: Jean Foucher, Vivant Gaultherot and Jean du Chemin. All three have the same pagination as the present edition, and at least the Gautherot shares a misprint (p. 206 numbered "209"), the same collation and the same VD16 fingerprint (ame- s,m- g*i* mepr, based on A2r, A6r, A7r and A7v: VD16 fingerprints substitute "*" for "æ"). So we probably have one or two Paris editions in 1540 and 1541 serving as the model for a 1543 Paris edition in four simultaneous issues. The USTC reports 2 copies of the 1540 Paris edition but no other Paris edition or issue. The Bibliotheque Nationale has a copy of the Du Chemin issue of the 1543 Paris edition and notes 2 further copies of the edition, in London (Foucher issue) and Stuttgart (Gaultherot issue). ICCU reports another at the Bibliotheca Comunale Ariostea in Ferrara (Gaultherot issue) and gives its VD16 fingerprint. The Casanata Library in Rome has a copy of the 1541 Paris edition, viewable on Google Books. All editions are very rare: the USTC records 0 to 3 copies for most and more (5 or 7) only for two editions: Venice 1542 and Lyon 1543. After 1543, Lespleigney's work lost popularity, perhaps due to the success of Cordus's 1546 Dispensatorium, but further editions appeared at Lyon under the title Enchiridion from 1546 to 1561, and the only other known Ruel edition appeared at Paris in 1567 (BMC STC French), all still very rare. - The book collates: 16mo: A-P8 = 120 ll., with I1, I3, K1 and K3 missigned K1, K3, L1 and L3 respectively. It is imposed with two 8-leaf quires worked together in each sheet (except that quire P may have been imposed alone, work and turn), so that each pair of consecutive quires contains one watermark divided at the upper fore-edge of leaves 5 and 6 in one quire, and the point-holes fall at the foot of leaves 3 and 4 (on the line where the sheet was divided to.

Des auteurs tourangeaux jouaient aisément leur partie dans les deux registres. L'apothicaire Thibault Lespleigney, né à Vendôme en 1496, publia presque simultanément un Promptuaire des médecines simples en rythme joyeux en 1537 et un Dispensarium Medicinarum en 1538, tous deux chez Mathieu Chercelé, qui furent plusieurs fois réédités. Le premier, écrit dans un style « plaisant » (c'est-à-dire en vers), dédié aux « freres de Tours appoticaires », donnait les formules de médicaments simples, répertoriant par ordre alphabétique les substances végétales et minérales utilisées dans la pharmacopée galénique. [.] En 1549, fuyant la répression contre les protestants, il s'établit comme apothicaire à Genève où il mourut en 1550." [ J. VONS. Médecine et humanisme en Touraine au temps de Rabelais in Bulletin de l'Académie Nationale de Médecine vol. 206 - Oct. 2022 ]. "Le Promptuaire des médecines simples : Il en existe deux éditions. La première fut imprimée à Tours en 1537, la seconde à Paris en 1544. C'est un abrégé de matière médicale et de thérapeutique, rédigé en français et versifié. Il débute par un Rondeau à la Vierge Marie, suivi d'un Prologue « par lequel l'auteur dédie son ouvrage aux apothicaires de Tours ». On y apprend ainsi que Lespleigney a rédigé cette oeuvre en deux hivers (à l'époque, saison de moindre activité pour les apothicaires, la cueillette des plantes étant impossible), en s'inspirant de plusieurs ouvrages. L'auteur mentionne les raisons qui l'ont incité à composer ce traité, à savoir limiter les pertes de temps, comprendre, connaître et éviter les erreurs. Il y présente également son ouvrage qu'il décrit comme une énumeration de drogues simples, émaillée de plaisanteries. Suite à ce prologue, viennent les 165 chapitres qui constituent l'ouvrage. A chacun d'eux correspond une drogue. Les drogues décrites proviennent des trois règnes : animal, végétal et minéral. Les chapitres sont de longueur variable, mais sont structurés rigoureusement ; les vers sont composés de six pieds et sont à rimes alternées. A la fin du Promptuaire, on trouve une Ballade à la mère de Jésus (présente seulement dans la première édition) et deux répertoires, l'un constitué d'une liste des noms et synonymes des drogues étudiées, l'autre d'une énumeration de maladies accompagnées de leur traitement. Le promptuaire est intéressant sous plusieurs aspects : il peut être considéré comme un prototype de matière médicale puisqu'on y trouve recensées méthodiquement les drogues, avec leur provenance, leurs propriétés, leurs indications, leurs caractéristiques, leurs effets toxiques. Bien sûr, le style, les multiples anecdotes personnelles, historiques, religieuses ou les plaisanteries de l'auteur éloignent cette oeuvre de la rigueur scientifique des ouvrages actuels ; il est rédigé en français, ce qui est un fait remarquable : Thibault Lespleigney est le premier auteur à avoir écrit des traités didactiques à l'usage de ses confrères. Avant le Promptuaire des médecines simples, tous les livres utilisés par les apothicaires avaient été écrits par des médecins. Le premier ouvrage à avoir été rédigé par un apothicaire est le Thesaurus aromatiorum de Paulus Suardus, publié à Milan en 1496 et écrit en latin. Thibault Lespleigney indique les auteurs et les ouvrages auxquels il fait référence. Il y renvoie par des notes mises en marge du texte. Il s'agit entre autres de Dioscoride, Platearius, Galien, Matthaeus Sylvaticus, Mésué,
