Description from the seller
Rare first edition in the French language of this fundamental work by the physician Thomas Sydenham (1624–1689), known as 'the English Hippocrates.'
Sydenham, Practical Medicine with notes. Work translated into French from the latest English edition by the late M. A. F. Jault..., Paris, at P. Fr. Didot, 1774.
PP.: (IV), XL, 728, (IV). COMPLETE.
Copy with cards in overall good condition, with the usual signs of use and age. Underlining and handwritten notes by the former owner on some pages.
Contemporary full leather binding with gold title and decorations on the spine, showing some wear and loss but still fairly well preserved overall. The front endpaper in decorated paper is missing.
Prestigious provenance: it bears the ex-libris label of Carli di Cesena, a daughter (or sister?) of whom married Marquis R. Buti in 1827, a distinguished bibliophile. Cf. J. Gelli, Italian Ex-Libris, Milan, Hoepli, 1930, p. 106.
