700 €
First edition.
Guy de La Brosse was Louis XIII's regular physician and founder of the Jardin du Roi (ancestor of the Jardin des Plantes). The last part, entitled "Dessein d'un Jardin Royal pour la culture des plantes médicinales", presents the project for the future Jardin des Plantes.
While the author remains famous for having successfully completed this project, he is also known for having been one of the first French Paracelsians. This work, one of the first great French botanical treatises, detailing the medicinal virtues of plants, their classification and their therapeutic use, is very much inspired by Bacon and Paracelsus. The book illustrates in a very clear way one of the schools of thought of the nascent revolution, that of Paracelsianism.
