Paris, chez Barrois 1787. William Cullen (1710-1790) attaqua la doctrine médicale d'Herman Boerhaave, qui régnait alors, et y substitua une doctrine nouvelle dans laquelle il attribuait le principal rôle au système nerveux, que son prédécesseur avait trop négligé. Il rendit aussi de grands services à la physiologie et surtout à la nosologie, dans laquelle il introduisit une classification méthodique.

Espanet studied homeopathy with Charg, Rapou, Ptroz and Tessier. Was physician at the agricultural colony founded by the Trappists at Staouli (Algeria), but for health reasons he returned to France (Montlimar). During the period 1851 and 1881 he published extensively on homeopathy. His "Pratique de l'Homoeopathie (1847) was many times re-published until at least 1950. The 5th edition of 1911 as quoted by Rozet A230 apparently don't exist.

** Rozet A 366. The very rare second, (only a few copies in the WorldCat), and much expanded, edition of this important text. Hahnemann wrote this work in Paris during the last years of his life. In this work Hahnemann gives the history of 22 medicines and their application in chronic diseases. It is an indispensable complement to his "Organon". It is Hahnemann's last work, and includes in extension his "Psora-Lehre". --(A usual with the Baillire publication of this period, foxed throughout the volumes).
Paris, J.B. Baillire, 1855 [= 1850]. [iv], 516 pp. 8vo (14,3 x 22,3 cm.). Original printed wrappers, uncut.
First edition. This so-called "second series" is nothing else than the remaining sheets of the first edition of 1850 for which a new half-title, title and printed wrappers were produced (titre & couverture de relai), and the word "Deuxime srie" was added. The work comprisses some important smaller writings of Hahnemann, and the clinical observations of Christoph Hartung. This 1855 issue was re-issued again in 1856, 1873 and 1885, most probably with the remainders of the sheets of the first edition. -- A very good copy with some rare scattered foxing and/or light browning).

First edition of Antoine Jourdan's (1788-1848) French translation of the "Organon", a highly esteemed translation, but for others questionable. This 1832 edition is quite rare indeed. A brief publishing history of the French translation of the 'Organon" is: Dresden, Arnold 1824, translated by Von Brunnow after the second German edition (very rare, only a few copies known); Paris & Lyon, Bohaire, 1832, translated by Von Brunnow after the second German edition; Dresden, Arnold 1832, translated by Von Brunnow after the 4th German edition; Paris, Baillire translated by Jourdan (the present work); Paris, Baillire 1834, translated by Jourdan after the 5th German edition; Paris, Baillire 1845, translated by Jourdan after the 5th German edition; Paris, Baillire, 1873 (reprint of the previous); Genve, Jeheber. 1952 translated by P. Schmidt after 6th German edition; Lyon, Boiron, 1983 translated from the German edition of 1921 by Haehl. Apart from the above there are many editions (reprints) of this text. Roze
Jena, Friedrich Fromann, 1838. vi, 346 pp. 8vo (13 x 21,5 cm.). Contemporary half calf over marbled boards, spine gilt decorated with some line and top & bottom ruller, gilt lettered on green morocco label (spine slightly discoloured; corners a triffle rubbed).
The very rare first edition to be published in German, and of which only a very few copies are known (no copy in the NLM). This work was first published in English (Philadelphia, Wesselhoeft, 1835, with a second part in 1838). The first edition in the German language was published in Allentown, (Pennsylvania), Jacob Behlert,1837. Next to Hahnemann, Hering will be best remembered as the most ardent advocate of Homeopathy, and the founder of the American School of Homoeopathy. His "Homopatischer Hausartz" (1835), is a great classic of Homoeopathic literature, was translated into many languages.--(First two, and last 4 leaves with some light scattered browning, but an remarkable clean inner copy in a attractive contemporary binding).

Next to Hahnemann, Hering will be best remembered as the most ardent advocate of Homeopathy, and the founder of the American School of Homoeopathy.

Between 1855 and 1891 5 more Baillire editions where published. Rare.-- (As usual with Baillire's publication of this epoque, scattered foxing).
