RAMAZZINI, Bernardino (1633-1714) & Luigi CORNARO (circa 1475-1566).

L'Art de conserver la santé des princes et des personnes du premier rang... Leyde : Jean Arnold Langerack, 1724.

La diététique des grands du monde pour assurer le bonheur des nations. Les conseils prodigués par Bernadino Ramazzini et Luigi Cornaro sont nécessaires étant donné que "la félicité publique dépend entièrement de la santé du prince, et qu’ainsi il ne faut négliger aucuns soins pour la conserver”. Des remarques d'ordre diététique sont évidemment au programme, puisque "la somptuosité des tables des princes ne s’accorde point du tout avec leur santé”. On sera plus surpris, cependant, de lire plus loin : “jusqu’où doit aller dans un prince l’étude des belles lettres pour ne pas nuire à sa santé”. Barbier, I, 285.



In-12 (148 x 88 mm). Titre imprimé en rouge et noir. Complet du catalogue de l’éditeur, relié in fine. Reliure de l’époque : veau jaspé glacé, dos à nerfs et caissons ornés, pièce de titre de maroquin rouge, roulette sur les coupes, tranches rouges jaspées (quelques frottements aux coins, petites usures aux charnières, manque à la coiffe de tête).

Provenance : Antoine-Louis Deschamps, baron de la Villeneuve (né vers 1740 ; ex-libris).



A fine copy, in its contemporary binding of this French translation of advices to preserve the good health of princes.
