The first edition of these three treaties Mesue commented by Sylvius appeared in Paris in 1542 into a Christian Weschel Vol. in Folio. Edition went through several editions in 1544 and 1548. Brunet III, 1675. Vellum Full time flexible flap with traces of laces. Lack some of the top flap. Abu Zakariya Yahya Ibn Masuyah said Jean Mesue, Christian physician born in Khuz near Nineveh in 776 and died in Baghdad in 855, where he practiced and practiced medicine, and was the personal physician of the Caliph Harun al-Rashid. Besides the prominent role he played in Arabic medicine, reflecting number of Greek texts, his book of aphorisms (medical axioms) had considerable success in the West, some of which are still in use today. He also wrote the first treatise on diet based on boards properties of Gallien, analyzing the effects of boards on the body 140. Furthermore Arab medicine began to influence in a significant way in Europe in the fifteenth century, as the Arab had commented and translated many Greek texts, including some great academies such as Montpellier and Paris, it is here that we find our commentator, a great physician of his time, Jacobus Sylvius or Jacques Dubois (1478-1554), who officiated in Paris and Montpellier, driven from Paris because he was not MD and wore too much shading his fame (they came from all over Europe to consult). Arabs are especially fathers pharmacopoeia and it is precisely the interest of this edition, meeting of two great doctors on issues Remedies centuries apart. Sylvius rénuni in this work the three greatest works of Mesue the question: Cyril medicamenta purgentia and De singularis medicamentis purgantibus. As for the book III, it is the Antidotarium the great work Mesue. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
