C-1205). Fue la obra que modificó el sentido de los secretos tal como se transmitían desde la antigüedad. Entre sus traductores y difusores, Wecker fue, sin embargo quien abrió una línea que resultaría conflictiva. En 1559 había traducido el libro original de Ruscelli al latín y en los años siguientes fue publicando nuevas ediciones (1560, 1561, 1563, 1568., y la traducción al alemán en 1569), en las que, además de recoger las novedades que Ruscelli iba añadiendo a su obra, añadía más secretos tomados de otros autores. Hasta que, en 1582, abandonó esa difusión y publicó en Basilea una obra propia, 'De secretis libri XVII', y cambió su suerte: fue condenado de inmediato por el Índice romano, circunstancia por la que se vio forzado a abandonar la práctica de la medicina (era médico en Colmar) para regresar a Basilea y dedicarse a la enseñanza de filosofía, lógica y retórica. La condena se debía a que en 'Los XVII libros de los secretos', introdujo un planteamiento de filosofía natural que principió en cómo conocer la verdad última, las posibilidades del hombre en el conocer y la naturaleza de Dios, para pasar a ir presentando los secretos (léase soluciones) a situaciones y problemas en ámbitos como el cuerpo (de su males, de la salud y de sus remedios), los animales terrestres, los peces, las aves (su cuidado y aprovechamiento), los metales, las piedras y gemas, las casas (posición, huerta, vestimenta, fuentes.), el clima, las ciencias, las artes mecánicas o diferentes comportamientos humanos, ofreciendo así un elenco de técnicas empleadas en diferentes lugares y épocas (cita más de 120 autores) para solventar necesidades cotidianas que no se basaban en soluciones deducibles de un marco teórico de descripción del mundo, sino que atendían a cómo obtener resultados sin que debieran explicarse conforme a aquél marco. Concebía la naturaleza como un lugar lleno de secretos que había que encontrar. Una actitud que no en vano se ha denominado la ciencia como caza de secretos. Pese a la condena romana (o ayudado por ella) su éxito fue rotundo, con más de un centenar de ediciones (en latín y traducido) por toda Europa en el siguiente siglo y medio. Al francés se tradujo en 1586, con más de una docena de ediciones en ese periodo. Esta que ofrecemos, la datamos en 1639 porque el ejemplar carece de su portada original, que fue suplida en s. XIX por una portada manuscrita que podemos afirmar que no reproduce la que corres.

Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition in English of Reade's 17th century adaptation of Johann Jacob Wecker's De secreti libri xvii [Book of Secrets] of 1582. Folio, bound in three quarter polished calf over marbled boards with gilt titles and ruling to the spine, woodcut printer's device to the title, woodcut head and tailpieces and initials, numerous…woodcut diagrams in the text. In near fine condition. Lacking the engraved frontispiece, title page supplied. Exceptionally rare. Based on Swiss physician and philosopher Johannes Jacob Weckerâs De secreti libri xvi [Book of Secrets], first published in 1582, Eighteen Book of the Secrets of Art & Nature was conceived as âan Encyclopaedia of Arts and Sciences, interwoven with facetious Conceits to recreate the fancyâ. The compiler, Dr R. Read or Reade gives a long list of âAuthors made use of in this Treatiseâ which adds, Culpeper, Digby, Galileo, Harvey, Hobbs, Lady Howard and Platt to those used by Wecker. He has also inserted his own name between Rondolet and Rhasis. Wecker's original list remains one of the most unusual assortments of authors ever assembled. As is seen in other 16th and 17th century Books of Secrets, every imaginable topic of natural science, natural magic, arts, trades, sports and pastimes is included with a substantial compilation of recipes, experiments, and observations extracted from classical, medieval, and contemporary authors. Books of Secrets constituted one of the most popular genres in early modern scientific publishing and supplied a great deal of practical information to an emerging new, middle-class readership, leading some historians to link them with the emerging secularistic values of the early modern period and to see them as contributing to the making of an age of how-to.

Alessio Piemontese, also known under his Latinized name of Alexius Pedemontanus, was the pseudonym of a 16th-century Italian physician, alchemist, and author Girolamo Ruscelli. His immensely popular 'Book of Secrets' was published in more than a hundred editions and was still being reprinted in the 1790s.
