Bound in contemporary vellum. Some wear, corrosion to front board. Binding sound, but moderate cover split at front hinge. All edges red. Some occasional foxing, particularly to the hand written index. Early ownership names on title page. "Croll or Crollius was born at Wetter in 1580, studied at Marburg, Heidelberg, Strasburg, Geneva, travelled, and became physician of Prince Christian of Anhalt-Bernberg. In medicine he was an adherent of Paracelsus, and invented several remedies. The first edition of the "Basilica chymica" was published at Franckfurt, 1608." - Ferguson. "The "Basilica chymica" became the standard scientific work of iatrochemistry. In sharp contrast with Paracelsus' vagueness, Crollius describes in detail the individual preparations, their composition, and their application. This explains why the book became such a great success, running to many editions and occasioning many commentaries." DSB 3, 471. From the library Dr. Owen Hannaway. Hannaway was director of the Center for the History and Philosophy of Science at Johns Hopkins University. He authored numerous books and served as an editor of academic magazines in the history of science.

2 parts in 1 volume. Rare fourth edition of an anonymous German translation of the most important work by the German chemist, alchemist, and physician Oswald Croll (or Crollius, ca. 1563-1609). The Basilica chymica is considered the standard work on iatrochemistry, a branch of both chemistry and medicine, rooted in alchemy and seeking to provide chemical solutions to diseases and medical ailments.According to Brüning the first Latin edition of the Basilica chymica was published in 1608 (Frankfurt am Main, G. Tampach) and re-issued many times between 1609 and 1624. The first French translation appeared in 1624, the first English translation in 1670. The richly decorated title page was engraved by the Flemish printmaker Aegidius Sadeler (1570-1629) and first published in the Latin edition of 1609, but apparently it has been reworked or newly engraved for our edition (with the name of Sadeler erased from the plate and with differences in the scrollwork cartouches and the lettering).The first part contains the privilege (printed in Latin) granted by the Austrian Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II (1578-1637). The divisional title page of the second part is titled Tractat von den innerlichen Signaturn, oder Zeichen aller Dinge. Oder von der wahren und lebendigen Anatomia der grossen und kleinen Welt . nunmehr aber auff das fleissigst und trewlichst verteutscht (Frankfurt am Main, printed by Caspar Rötel for Gottfried Tampach, 1629).With an owner's inscription on the recto of the first free flyleaf in black ink and an owner's inscription on the engraved title page in brown ink. The binding is soiled, the boards are slightly warped and show some scratches, with a cut in the vellum along the fore edge of the back board, all without affecting the structural integrity of the binding. Minor wormholes in the first blank leaves and the engraved title page, slightly browned throughout, occasionally lightly foxed. Otherwise in good condition.l Brüning 1495-1496; Duveen, p. 150; Partington II, pp. 174-177; Rosenthal 249; Thorndike V, pp. 649-651; USTC 2169435, 2524534 (5 copies); VD17 23:290265D (3 copies); WorldCat 26026464, 1426901737, 813721806, 633203525 (14 copies); cf. Caillet 2702 (1622 Latin ed.); for the title-page: Hollstein XXI, Aegidius Sadeler, no. 391. Contemporary blind-tooled vellum, sewn on 4 vellum tapes laced through the joints, sprinkled edges. With a richly engraved title page designed by Aegidius Sadeler, with circular alchemical diagrams at the top and below (the one below surrounded by alchemical equipment) and portraits of 6 famous alchemists in oval scrollwork cartouches (3 on either side): Hermes Trismegistus, Geber, Roger Bacon, Paracelsus, Ramon Llull, and Morienus Romanus; a divisional title page for part 2 with a woodcut vignette. Further with 5 small woodcut illustrations in the text (depicting alchemical instruments), several woodcut head- and tailpieces and decorated woodcut initials, numerous alchemical symbols at the end of part 2. All text is set within a printed single or double fillet frame. Pages: [8], 248, [15], [1 blank]; 72, [7], [1 blank] pp.

12mo. A total of ca. 670 pp. Contemporary green-dyed wooden boards with bevelled edges, spine covered with gilt leather (some damage). Two working clasps. Pretty sammelband comprising eleven rare works by the physician, chemist, and hermetic writer J. P. Rhumelius (ca. 1598-1639?). A native of Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate, Rhumelius matriculated at Altdorf at the age of 14. As a fervent disciple of the Paracelsian school, he was active in Nuremberg and Plötzkau, calling himself "mathematicus et chymiatrus" and "personal physician to a Prince of Anhalt". John Webster's "Metallographia" made him known in England as an alchemist, and his works, which appeared under his own name, anonymously, and under the name of "Salomon Raphael, in mundo R[humel]", saw translations into English as well as French. In the 1630s Rhumelius also produced several magico-cabbalistic prognostication calendars. - Comprises individually: - 1) Compendium hermeticum, de macrocosmo et microcosmo totius philosophiae & medicinae cognitionem breviter & compendiose complectens.

A little later, the book was apparently owned by the Hungarian painter Ádám Mányoki (1673-1757), who signs on the first title-page ("Ex libris A. de Mányoki"). Subsequently in the library of the Hungarian noble family Szent-Iványi (their armorial bookplate on the verso of the first title-page) and then in that of the Pálffy-Erdödy family (a 19th century etched bookplate with handwritten inset label "Palfy m.p."). Latterly in the Czech L'achki collection with their stamp to the lower pastedown. - Ferguson II, 266f. Cf. Rosenthal 729. Duveen 506f.

Condizione: Good. A Collection of 207 numbered engravings mounted on 11 sheets. Each sheet is signed and dated 1759 on the verso. Engravings 48 x 38mm.Each emblem is dedicated to a historical or mythical figure of alchemical interest, usually as great thinker. Mylius' major work, the Opus medico-chymicum (illustrated with copperplate engravings by Matthew Merian and first printed by Lucas Jennis in 1618), is very scarce. It was revised and popularised by Daniel Stolcius in his Hortulus hermeticus (1627) at Jennis' instigation, and many scholars mistakenly attribute the compendium to this edition, rather than to Mylius. It is possible that the engravings on offer here are from a Stolcius edition, though those are usually described as consisting of 160 images only.OCLC Number 14301678.Notes on the book itself:On title page, author's name precedes titleVolume 1: [44], 428, [250], 184, 492 pages, [2] folded leaves of plates; volume 2: [5] pages, pages 494-1470, [2] pages, 154, that is, 150 pages, [90], 271, [5], 44, [98] pages, [20] leaves of plates (some folded)Volume 1 contains the first three books of Basilica medica; and the first four books of Basilica chymica with special engraved title page and portrait of the authorVolume 2 has title: Operis medico-chymici pars altera.
