Anatomia. Edited by Petrus Andreas Morsianus. Bologna: Johannes de Nördlingen and Henricus de Harlem, 20 January 1482.
Third edition of 'one of the most influential of all pre-Vesalian works devoted strictly to anatomy' (Heirs) and the earliest to appear at auction (RBH). Written in 1316, the Anatomia was probably the first systematic guide to human dissection and became a required text in numerous medical schools across Europe. No copy in America; not in the British Library. Cf. A. Castiglioni, A History of Medicine, 1975, pp. 342-4; H 11635*; Klebs 688.3; Heirs of Hippocrates, edited by Richard Eimas, no. 97, p. 36; GW M25667; ISTC im00871800.
Chancery folio (291 x 203mm). 20 leaves (some scattered staining, largely associated with remnants of red wax, marginal wormholes in first 5 leaves, stamp removed from colophon with loss of two letters). 19th-century straight grained blue morocco, gilt acanthus border, flat spine tooled and lettered in gilt (rubbed, minor loss at extremities). Provenance: early marginal annotations – Royal Society of Medicine (possibly its stamp removed at end).
