INCUNABULA.
1 AEGIDIUS MONACHVS Corboliensis. Liber metricus de pulsibus (with a commen-
tary by Gentil de Fulgineo, edited by Avenantius Mutius de Came-
rino). Padua, Matthaeus Cerdonis of Windischgraetz, 1484.
4*o. Gothic letter of 32 long lines to a full page, 48 11.; with woodcut-
initials. Half vellum. Frs. 1500.—
Hain* 103. Proctor 6815. Choulant, Handbuch d. Biicherkunde f. d. altere Medizin
p. 321 and 325.
Very rare first edition of this remarkable poem de pulsibus. With the extensive com-
mentary of G e nt i 1 de Fulgineo.
Interesting product of the press of the German printer Matthaeus Cerdonis of Win-
dischgraetz, who worked at Padua from 1482 to 1487. All his books were printed in a cha-
racteristical small Gothic type and in all his products only the three or four first leaves of
each quire were numbered.
The author of this poem Aegidius Corboliensis or Gilles deCorbeil was a
popular writer and a teacher at Salerno, afterwards court physician to Philip Augustus of
France. He lived from 1150 to 1223, and composed several poems in Latin hexameters on medical
subjects. Two of these, on the pulse and the urine, attained the position of medical classics.
The last leaves stained, at end a few small wormholes, otherwise a good copy of this
remarkable incunabulum.
Only two copies in U. S. A. (acc. to Census).
See Reproduction of the Colophon below.
