First Edition
(16 x 10,5 cm). 195 (2) S. Schlichter moderner Lederband mit Innenkantenvergoldung. Seltene erste Ausgabe. - "The powder of sympathy became in Digby's hands the most famous universal cure of the seventeenth century. The powder of sympathy was a variant of the weapon salve of Paracelsus, which was put on the weapon which caused the injury rather than on the injury itself. Surgeons of as high a repute as Fabry von Hilden in Germany advocated it. With the powder, the medicine was put on a cloth or bandage which had touched the wound, but was kept separate from it thereafter. The wound itself was not medicated, and the healing was done by 'sympathy,' which was explained as a form of magnetism, or atomistic or other attraction. Digby's discours on the powder of sympathy was the single most important text for maintaining interest in sympathetic phenomena into the eighteenth century, especially in German-speaking countries. Digby's powder was English vitriol or anhydrous ferrous sulfate. Digby himself was looking for a naturalistic explanation of healing in his disours on sympathy, which was given in 1657 in French before a learned audience in the resort and school town of Montpellier, where he had gone for the waters. The printed 'Disours' became the most popular of all Digby's books, with the widest distribution throughout Europe, and over forty different printings into the early eighteenth century." (Rubin). - Titel etwas fleckig, sonst unterschiedlich gebäunt bzw. braunfleckig. Einband gering berieben. Insgesamt gut erhalten. - DSB 4, 95; Rubin, Sir Kenelm Digby 47; Ferguson I, 213 (Anm.); Krivatsy 3241; Thorndike VII, 503 ff.; Caillet 3124.

Rare third edition of this curious treatise on the cure and healing of wounds by means of the "Powder of Sympathy" by Sir Kenelm Digby (1603-1665), not only an English courtier and diplomat, but also a highly reputed natural philosopher, astrologer. For his versatility, he is described in John Pointer's Oxoniensis Academia (1749) as the "Magazine of all Arts and Sciences, or (as one stiles him) the Ornament of this Nation". Digby was regarded as an eccentric by contemporaries, partly because of his effusive personality, and partly because of his interests in scientific matters. He was in touch with the leading intellectuals of the time, and was highly regarded by them; he was a founding member of the Royal Society.Binding shows some minor signs of wear, top of the spine is slightly damaged, ownership label on the front pastedown "Ex Libris J. Oberti, M.D." and an ownership inscription on the title-page "Hugues J. Dovey R.", minor foxing and/or tiny marks throughout, without affecting the text. Overall in good condition.l Caillet, 3124; Wellcome, II, p. 468; cf. D. Rubin, Sir Kenelm Digby. A Bibliography (1991), 104.
