Hermaphrodite. Two colour-printed mezzotint plates. 

[Paris], s.n., [1749].
More Details >
8000 €

Set of two colour-printed mezzotint depicting a hermaphrodite. Among one of the most spectacular prints in Gautier d'Agoty's work.

The two plates (1. side view, 2. front view) were originally intended to accompany a one-page booklet entitled: "Hermaphrodite. Dissertation au sujet de la fameuse hermaphrodite qui a paru aux yeux du public depuis environ trois mois, faite par le sieur Mertrud, chirurgien du Roi," Paris, Berryer éditeur, 1749.

These two large color engraved plates depict the sexual organs of the hermaphrodite Michel Anne Drouart, whose characteristics, examined by various scholars, were the subject of much controversy in Paris, then in England and Italy, where Drouart made several tours: "The subject is alive, aged 16... His father and mother raised him as a girl."

The second plate, not mentioned by the bibliographers, is extremely rare. It is absent from copies of the BIUS, and major Anglo-Saxon specialist libraries. (A copy can be found in Sweden at the Hagströmer Library. An other one sold by Christies, Paris, 2016).

First edition.
"The name of the tuscan physician Angelo Gatti has been closely linked to the practice and promotion of the inoculation for smallpox. Before Jenner discoveries about vaccine, this medical technique was the only way to prevent an endemic and deadly disease like smallpox. In the second half of the XVIIIth century the inoculation for smallpox became a discussed practice, able to involved in the debate not only the scientific community but also the social and political milieu. Gatti arrived in Paris in 1760 where he became famous thanks to his masterpieces: the Réflexions sur les préjugés qui s'opposent au progrès et à la perfection de l'inoculation (1764) and the Nouvelles réflexions sur la pratique de l'inoculation (1767). "
Veronica Massai, Angelo Gatti e l'inoculazione del vaiolo (1724-1798), 2016

A practical manual for performing inoculation, an unsafe process that preceded Jenner's vaccination.

Galen (129-210 BC) is considered the last of the great creative physicians of Greco-Roman antiquity and, with Hippocrates, one of the founders of the great basic principles on which Western medicine is based.

Dissertation sur la Digestion de l'Estomach, touchant l'humeur acide. 

Paris, François Muguet, 1675.
More Details >
1800 €

First edition of this scarce work of gastroenterology.
Not in the usual bibliographies (Osler, Heirs, Waller, Cole, Morton, Dezeimeris, ......).
Portal in his dictionary of anatomy (1770) mentions an edition of 1676. He says of this work that it is not very interesting, Galatheau following the system of Willis on digestion.

Traces of this work can also be found in the correspondence of Pierre Bayle:
"There is a doctor from Bourdeaux named Mr Galatheau who I was told was from Religion, who had a Treatise on Digestion printed foods where he fights the opinion of the moderns who want it to be done by an acid humor whose sharp parts do what strong water produces in metals."

Neither his peers nor posterity have been kind to Pierre de Galatheau, however we note on page 13 of his treatise that he uses a microscope to observe the mucous membrane of the stomach:
"the pores of this part are larger and more dilated than the others, as the microscope shows..."
A completely innovative process since Leeuwenhoek's first microscopic observations were only presented to the Royal Society in 1673.

Des Changements dans le climat de la France, histoire de ses révolutions météorologiques
[relié à la suite :]
Des Maladies de la France dans leurs rapports avec les saison, ou histoire médicale et météorologique de la France, Paris, Dufart, 1840. 

Paris, Capelle, 1845.
More Details >
600 €

Two works in first edition by the same author in one volume:

I - FUSTER, Changes in the climate of France, history of its meteorological revolutions, Paris, Capelle, 1845

"The climate of France has changed and is changing"
Quite fascinating historiographical work on the French climate since the Gauls until the XIXth century.
One of the final chapters entitled "The action of meteorological phenomena and the human industry as causes of changes in our climate" sounds like a strange echo 150 years before the IPCC reports.

II- FUSTER, Diseases of France in their relationships with the seasons, or medical and meteorological history of France, Paris, Dufart, 1840

"The subject of this book is still new: no one has dealt with the diseases of France; no one has considered these diseases in their relationship with the seasons. But it is between us something more than "a new application of principles already known; it is, above all, the search for these principles. How do the seasons work; determine the diseases in correspondence with their action? Here is the problem first. The history of the seasons and diseases of France will follow and must follow the solution of these two questions. "

While the seasonality of viral infections is always a concern.
