Bel exemplaire imprimé par Giambattista Bodoni de Parme en Italie, surnommé le roi des imprimeurs et limprimeur des rois. Il a dessiné et gravé ses caractères à la fin du XIXe siècle. Le Bodoni est reconnaissable au grand contraste qui existe entre les pleins et les déliés, ses hampes parfaitement verticales, et ses empattements longilignes. Cest le caractère classique par excellence. Médecin, humaniste et poète véronais, Fracastoro est l'une des figures les plus représentatives du gentilhomme savant de la Renaissance. Après des études à l'université de Padoue, où il a pour condisciple Copernic et comme maîtres l'anatomiste Achillini et le philosophe Pomponazzi, il y enseigne à son tour la logique. Il séjourne pendant plusieurs années auprès du général vénitien Alviano, et parfait son expérience médicale en le suivant dans ses campagnes militaires. Il partage le reste de son existence entre Vérone et sa villa d'Incassi, se consacrant à l'étude des sciences mathématiques et naturelles, à la poésie et à la médecine. Très sollicité pour sa compétence médicale, il est nommé par Paul III médecin du concile de Trente. Fracastoro est surtout connu pour son poème sur la syphilis : Syphilidis, sive morbi gallici, libri tres, écrit en 1521 et publié en 1530, qui contient des descriptions réalistes et cliniques de la maladie, et les principes scientifiques de sa thèse sur la contagion. Pour Fracastoro, la syphilis (ou mal français) est antérieure au retour de Colomb. Il l'attribue, comme nombre de ses contemporains, à la corruption de l'air par la décomposition des matières organiques à l'occasion des guerres avec les Français, et prescrit des frictions au mercure et au bois de gaïac. La syphilis est une maladie sexuellement transmissible qui fait des ravages en Europe. Au XVIe siècle, cette maladie porte différents noms selon les régions, qui ont chacun pour objectif de rejeter la faute sur son voisin. Ainsi, elle est connue comme la maladie espagnole, la gale napolitaine ou encore la vérole française. À partir du XVIIe siècle, le terme de maladie vénérienne est utilisé et le terme de syphilis n'est quant à lui largement utilisé qu'à partir du XIXe siècle. . L'ouvrage est écrit sous forme de poème et composé de trois livres. Fracastoro présente dans le premier tome l'apparition de la maladie et les troubles qu'elle cause, dans le deuxième les traitements possibles et l'étude du cas d'un homme qui aurait trouvé un remède par des bains de mercure et enfin le troisième tome est un conte allégorique où un beau berger du nom de Syphilis (qui en grec signifie un « don d'amitié réciproque ) se voit atteint d'une maladie le rendant hideux après avoir mis en colère le dieu du Soleil Apollon. Mais finalement, ce dernier est guéri par le bois de gaïac, un nouveau médicament révélé. Ce premier ouvrage, immédiatement célèbre est traduit dans de nombreux pays.

Scarce first edition of this milestone in the history of medicine, the foundational work of modern epidemiology, which was the first to state the germ theory of infection.This epochal work ""establishes Fracastoro as one of the foremost scientists of all time, and earns him the title of founder of modern epidemiology. ""De contagione"" contains the first scientifically reasoned statement of the true nature of infection, contagion, and the germ theory of disease and is the foundation of all modern views on the nature of infectuous diseases... Fracastoro's influence is also clearly reflected in the work of such modern scientists as Louis Pasteur, Joseph Lister, and Robert Koch as they broadened and furthered man's knowledge of infectuous diseases."" (Heirs of Hippocrates). ""This book represents a landmark in the development of our knowledge of infectuous disease. Fracastorus was the first to state the germ theory of infection. He recognized typhus and suggested the contagiousness of tuberculosis. Haeser describes him as the ""founder of scientific epidemology""."" (Garrison & Morton).Faracstoro's theories on contagions and epidemics were far ahead of their time, but they were still widely respected. The magnificent theories here constitute the first correct illustrations of how contagions might spread: by simple contact as in scabies and leprosy"" by ""fomities"" or inanimate carriers, such as clothing or sheets" and at a distance, without direct contact or carriers, as in plague, smallpox, etc., attributing their transmission to the action of the air - and his ideas on the spreading and controlling of epidemics were of vital importance to Renaissance man and to the further development of our knowledge within this field. The work furthermore gives the first accurate account of typhys as well as several other contageous diseases, together with the affirmation of the contagiousness of tuberculosis. With this work, Fracastoro was also the first to enunciate the modern doctrine of the specific characters and infectious nature of fevers. Heirs of Hippocrates: 101 G&M: 2528 Wellcome: 2393 Govi: 83.
Opera omnia, in unum proxime post illius mortem collecta quorum nomina sequens pagina plenius indicat. Accesserunt Andreae Naugerii patricii Veneti, Orationes duae carminaque nonnulla, amicorum cura ob id nuper simul impresso, ut eorum scripta, qui arcta inter se uiventes necessitudine coniuncti fuerunt, in hominum quoque manus post eorum mortem iuncta pariter pervenirent.
Venezia, Haeredes Lucantonio I Giunta, 1555.
Première édition collective publiée deux ans après la mort de l'auteur. Le premier ouvrage ici est un ouvrage d'astronomie "Homocentricorum sive de stellis", dans lequel il il développe un vaste système de 77 ou 79 sphères homocentriques. Fracastoro (1478-1553) a été le premier à énoncer la théorie des germes et à suggérer la contagiosité de la tuberculose, dans "De sympathia et antipathia rerum liber unus. De contagione et contagiosis morbis et curatione". (1546). On connaît de lui son poème sur la syphilis, le plus célèbre de tous les poèmes médicaux, où il résume les connaissances contemporaines sur la syphilis, lui donne son nom actuel et lui reconnaît une cause vénérienne. Mais il est aussi connu comme médecin, géologue, astronome et poète. (Garrison-Morton 2364, 2528) Ces oeuvres sont précédées d'une vie de l'auteur par Adami Fumani. Une gravure sur bois à pleine page avec des portraits en médaillons de Fracastor et de son ami Andrea Navagero, dont on trouve les "Orationes" à la fin (32 ff.) Quelques gravures sur bois dans le texte. Magnifique reliure, entièrement estampée, à l'emblème de la Justice sur le premier plat et de Lucrecia sur le second. Initiales B. S. T. sur le premier plat et date de 1560. Deux ex-libris manuscrits sur la page de titre. Des annotations anciennes dans les marges. Très bel exemplaire. /// In-4 de (6) ff., 285, (1), 32 ff Vélin, dos à nerfs orné, plats estampés. (Reliure de l'époque.) //// First collected edition published two years after the author's death. The first work here is a work on astronomy "Homocentricorum sive de stellis", in which he develops a vast system of 77 or 79 homocentric spheres. Fracastoro (1478-1553) was the first to state the germ theory of infection and suggested the contagiousness of tuberculosis, in "De sympathia et antipathia rerum liber unus. De contagione et contagiosis morbis et curatione." (1546). He is remembered for his poem on syphilis, the most famous of all medical poems, where he epitomized contemporary knowledge of syphilis, gave to it its present name, and recognized a venereal cause. But he was also eminent as a physicist, geologist, astronomer, and poet. (Garrison-Morton 2364, 2528). These works are preceded by a life of the author by Adami Fumani. A full-page woodcut with medallion portraits of Fracastor and and his friend Andrea Navagero, whose "Orationes" are found at the end (32 ff.) Woodcuts in text. Initials B. S. T. on the first board and date of 1560. Two ex-libris signatures on the title page. Old annotations in the margins.Very fine copy. /// PLUS DE PHOTOS SUR WWW.LATUDE.NET
Syphilis, sive morbus gallicus. - [THE RAREST AND MOST IMPORTANT EDITION OF THE SYPHILIS-POEM]
Roma, Apud Antonium Bladum Asulanum (on colophon), 1531, mense Septembri. 4to. Sown, uncut and unbound. Title-page and a few other leaves with a bit of minor brownspotting" overall a very nice and well-preserved copy of this beautifully printed, extremely scarce work. Two quires with loose leaves. Floriated large initial at beginning. [32] ff. (being title-page, 29 ff. text, 1 f. errata, 1 f. blank).
The exceedingly scarce second edition (the ""Rome text"") of ""[t]he most famous of all medical poems"" (Garrison & Morton), the poem which gave to the disease syphilis its name, being the most important edition of the work, the first complete edition (with the two lines of the first book printed for the first time - not found in any other contemporary editions of the work), the only authoritative version of the text to appear contemporarily, and by far the rarest edition - with only four known copies at the time of the official bibliography (Baumgartner and Fulton, 1935) (whereas the first edition from the year before, 1530, was known in 30 copies) - our copy also with the final blank leaf (H4), ""not preserved in any copy examined"" (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 38).""The edition published at Rome (no. 2) in the following year is a finer piece of printing, AND IT IS EVIDENTLY A MUCH RARER WORK SINCE ONLY FOUR COPIES HAVE BEEN TRACED, WHILE AT LEAST 30 COPIES OF THE VERONA EDITION (i.e. the first edition) ARE KNOWN."" (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 37). Apart from the work itself being of the greatest impact on the history of medicine, giving to Syphilis its name and epitomizing contemporary knowledge of the illness, and the author being one of the most renowned physicians of the Renaissance, being compared in scope and excellence to Leonardo da Vinci, the present work in the present second edition has yet another feature, apart from its utmost scarcity, which contributes to its excellence"" it is printed by the excellent Italian printer Antonio Blado, whose works are scarce and very sought after.""Textually, as well as typographically, this is the most important edition of Fracastoro's poem, since, unlike those which follow, it bears evidence of having been supervised by Fracastoro himself, the two lines which had been omitted from Bk. I of the Verona edition being here included (verses 1 and 2 on leaf C2b) in exactly the form in which they were written on the vellum copy of the 1530 edition mentioned above (see end of note)... Among his other achievements in typography Antonio Blado can claim the distinction of having issued the most beautiful edition of Fracastoro's poem of any of the sixteenth century. The format is larger than that of the Verona edition and the fount of large italic type seems particularly well suited to Fracastoro's even lined verses. As with the other editions of this period the capitals are in Roman throughout"" the ornamental capital (Q) at the beginning of Bk. I is particularly well executed. Bks II and II have spaces at the beginning for an illuminated initial.THE BOOKS OF ANTONIO BLADO ARE APPARENTLY AS RARE AS THEY ARE EXCELLENT, AND THEY HAVE LONG BEEN SOUGHT AFTER BY ITALIAN COLLECTORS. Blado was born in 1490 at Asloa in northern Italy. In 1515 Blado settled in Rome where he remained until his death in 1567. He was a bold and original printer, who, as Fumagelli points out, almost invariably undertook new things, never reprinting classics, and only occasionally , as in the case of Fracastoro's poem, reprinting the work of a contemporary. In 1532 he issued the first edition of Machiavelli's ""Il Principe"", and in 1549 he became official printer to the Papal See..."" (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 39).""Girolamo Fracastoro (1484-1553), a Veronese of thick-set, hirsute appearance and jovial mien, who practiced in the Lago di Garda region, was at once a physician, poet, physicist, geologist, astronomer, and pathologist, and shares with Leonardo da Vinci the honour of being the first geologist to see fossil remains in the true light (1530). He was also the first scientist to refer to the magnetic poles of the earth (1543). His medical fame rests upon that most celebrated of medical poems, ""Syphilis sive Moribus Gallicus (Venice, 1530), which sums up the contemporary dietetic and therapeutic knowledge of the time, recognizes a venereal cause, and gave the disease its present name..."" (Garrison, History of Medicine, p. 233).The magnificent medical poem is about the main character, a young shepherd called ""Syphilis"", who induces the people to forsake the Sun God, who in return bestows upon man a new, horrible plague, which Fracastoro names after the shepherd. ""It epitomized contemporary knowledge of syphilis, gave to it its present name, and recognized a venereal cause. Fracastorius refers to mercury as a remedy."" (Garrison and Morton).The work must be described as seminal, and its great influence and importance has continued throughout centuries. As stated in the bibliography by Baumgartner and Fulton, which is devoted exclusively to the poem, ""[t]he full extent of the influence exerted by a work which has received such wide recognition cannot be adequately estimated without searching bibliographical analysis"", and thus they have traced 100 editions of Fracastoro's Syphilis-poem, including translations into six languages. 18 of these appeared in the 16th century, but it is curious to see, how the work continues to resurface up until the 20th century. Almost 200 years after the work originally appeared, Italy witnessed a great revival of Fracastoro and his poem, and the first Italian translation appeared in 1731, with a preface by the great Enlightenment philosopher Giambattista Vico, and by 1739 five Italian editions had appeared. Another revival of the work took place as late as the 20th century, with four new English translations appearing between 1928 and 1935.""Le poème de Fracastor sur la Syphilis restera toujours un chef-d'oeuvre, parce que le pinceau est large, l'imagination hardie, la versification harmonieuse, et que le poète agrandit son sujet ingrat en remontant aux cases celestas, en montant la main des Dieux s'appersantissant pour punir la terre"" la fiction, surtout, qu'il a imagine pour retrace la découverte du mercure, est un tableau digne des plus grands maîtres."" (Achille Chéreau, Le Parnasse medical francais, 1874, p. xv). Baumgartner & Fulton, A Bibliography of the Poem of Syphilis sive Moribus Gallicus by Girolamo Fracastoro of Verona: no. 2 (our copy follows exactly the collation given here - and also has the final blank leaf mentioned but not found in any of the examined copies).Garrison and Morton: 2364. ""There is every reason to believe that the first edition of 1530 was personally supervised by Fracastoro as it was passing through the press. The printer, however, omitted two verses in the first book, which have been inserted in manuscript, apparently by Fracastoro himself, in the copy on vellum now preserved in the Bibliothèque Nationale. As these two lines are included in the Rome edition of the following year, it is likely that Fracastoro also supervised this, the second edition, and that this should be regarded as the authoritative text, since there is no evidence of textual changes in seven subsequent editions during his life.""
