AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Scarce edition of St. Thomas Aquinas' commentary of Aristotle's work on 'Generation & Corruption". This work of Aristotle's is noteworthy for its classical enumeration of the Four Causes: Material, Formal, Efficient, & Final, as well as its theory on the Four Elements (Earth, Wind, Fire, & Water). Adorned with a lovely wood-cut of St. Thomas Aquinas in the company of St. Louis, King of France and Egidius Romanus, with the Arab philosopher Averroes at his feet. Numerous diagrams in text. Folio (31 x 22cm), [iii], 46 leaves. Occasional light damp-staining throughout. Rebound in modern boards. Quite rare; I could not locate any copies of this edition in North America.
