    Booklet - Unbound Pages. Condition: Very Good. 10 pages. This article revisits The Honour of the Gout, a 1720 pamphlet by Philander Misaurus, written during a violent paroxysm and framed as a letter to an eminent citizen. With tongue firmly in cheek, Misaurus argues that gout is not a curse but a privilege, a purgative fire that wards off fevers, clears the intellect, and elevates its sufferers above common ailments. The review quotes liberally from the original, highlighting its mock-heroic tone, classical allusions, and gleeful ridicule of medical jargon. Gout is presented as a mark of refinement, a safeguard against madness, and even a route to philosophical insight. The piece celebrates the pamphletâs humour while reflecting on the enduring cultural fascination with aristocratic suffering. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 18 x 26 cms. Category: Retrospective Review; Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on.

    Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. " The book was initially printed in 1699 under the pseudonym Philander Misiatrus (here with a subtle change of moniker), and on occasion incorrectly attributed to Swift, that, in a parody of medical treatises, gleefully satires those afflicted with gout and facetiously extols its virtues, arguing for example that it is 'no constant companion, but allows its patients lucid, joyous intervals".[2],iv,[4],55,[1]p. 55p ; no half title; woodcuts in text.The pamphlet has been professionally bound by Bovill in thick card boards with titling label on the front board.
