‎---- PREMIERE EDITION FRANCAISE des oeuvres de J.F. Henckel ---- TRES BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "Henckel's publications, which appeared in new German editions and in english and, especially, French translations in the two decades following his death, played an important role in the spread of the Stahlian approach to chemical phenomena". (DSB VI p. 259) ---- Cole N° 619 & Hoover N° 408 : "A collection of interesting works on mineralogy by Henckel. The Flora Saturnisans was translated by Charas with revisions by Augustin Roux, while the other items were translated by Baron d'Holbach, Opuscules minéralogiques anotated by C.F. Zimmermann. The Flora Saturnisans has an addition to chap VIII : Tableau de l'analyse végétale taken from the lectures of G.F. Rouelle . Henckel was a physician and pioneer in mineral chemistry in the great mining center of Freiburg and described in his many books the best early accounts of arsenic, zinc and a variety of pyrites". (Hoover p. 96) ---- "In Freiburg Henckel used his leisure time to give private courses to lovers of chemistry and to carry out experiments. He soon became quite proficient in using heat and fire for the chemical analysis of mineral substances. In the 1720's he quickly attracted the acclaim of the German scientific world with the publication of his first major work : Flora saturnizans, an inquiry into the relations and similarities between plants and mineral ; Pyritologia, and encyclopedic study of the pyrites ; and De mediorum chymicorum, an investigation of mediated reactions... Henckel's influence also extended to the rapidly developing science of chemistry. His exacting course did much to shape the perceptions and techniques of two significant pupils, A.S. Marggraf and M. Lomonosov. His work on pyrites and other minerals exerted a strong influence on J.H. Pott, J.G. Lehmann and others engaged in mineral analysis...". (DSB VI p. 259) ---- Partington II pp. 706/709 ---- Pyrétologie - Flora Saturnisans : De la création des premières plantes selon le témoignage de Moyse, de la multiplication et de l'ensemencemens des plantes, des principes des plantes ou des parties simples qui entrent dans leur composition, de l'action des végétaux sur les minéraux et sur les métaux, Description historique et chymique du Kali Geniculatum, tableau de l'analyse des végétaux extrait des leçons de chimie de M; Rouelle... - Traité de l'appropriation - Idée de l'origine des pierres - Précis du traité des maladies auxquelles les ouvriers qui travaillent aux mines et aux fonderies sont exposés (la phtisie des mineurs, la colique des fonderies) - Dissertations minéralogiques**2638/K1‎
