First edition of this translation billed as closer to the original Latin than previous editions but actually a very idiosyncratic translation into French verse. Light wear at edges, old owner's signature to title. Rare; two copies in OCLC (Edinburgh and the Biblitheque Nationale). 109pp The Schola Medica Salernitana was Europe's first medical school. It was founded outside Salerno in Southern Italy in the 9th century and became famous across Europe in the late 11th. Though it was based on the Greco-Roman medical tradition of Hippocrates and Galen, it's location did allow some synthesis of Jewish and Arab ideas. Allouel was a prominent French surgeon. This is a curious adaptation of medieval medical ideas - it begins with a discussion of the school, but most of the volume is a series of translations of the Regimen Sanitatis Salernitanum into French verse (mostly rhymed sestain and octaves, but there are quintillas, quatrains, nonets and couplets.). They are mostly about food (butter, milk, sage, absinth, pepper, soup) but also addressing medical conditions (headaches, eye problems, rheumatism) and the humours. Size: 12mo .

First edition. This rare first edition of Allouelâs Explication des Mots dâUsage en Anatomie et en Chirurgie (Paris, 1776) is an important 18th-century medical reference work designed to clarify anatomical and surgical terminology for students and practitioners. Structured as both a glossary and instructional manual, the work explains the etymology, meaning, and proper application of technical medical terms, while also providing broader discussions of anatomy, pathology, surgical procedures, and therapeutic treatments. Sections include osteology, myology, splanchnology, neurology, and surgical instruments, as well as discussions of diseases, operations, and medications. The work reflects the Enlightenment emphasis on systematizing scientific knowledge and improving surgical education Written for surgical students (âAux Ãlà ves en Chirurgieâ), the book represents an instructional bridge between academic anatomical theory and practical surgical training. Its etymological approach to terminology is particularly notable, helping practitioners understand the linguistic roots of medical vocabulary derived from Greek and Latin. Such manuals were essential tools in the professionalization of surgery during the 18th century, when surgeons increasingly distinguished themselves from barber-surgeons and sought formal academic standing. This is a very rare work unknown to WorldCat.
