Manuscript proposing one of the first directories of homeopathic medicines in the French language through a translation of the work by Georg Adolph Weber: "Systematische Darstellung der reinen Arzneiwirkungen aller bisher geprüften Symptome" published in German in 1831.
The work will not be published in French only in 1833 with a translation by the Swiss homeopath Peschier under the title "Systematic exposition of the pure pathogenetic effects of all the remedies put to date in experience" (Geneva, Cherbuliez, 1833).
Our manuscript uses the same two-part structure as the German edition and should probably precede the French edition. The binding is typical of the 1830s, we are thus at the very beginning of the development of homeopathy in Europe under the impetus of the German school directed by Hannemahn (1755-1843) of whom Weber was a disciple.
It is in Switzerland and in Lyon that homeopathy in French language develops, Count Sébastien Des Guidi creates in 1830 the Homeopathic Society Lyonnaise and opens its consultations, there are 5 or 6 homeopaths in France in 1832 then 25 in 1833, 52 in 1835. (Cf. Bariety, "The beginnings of homeopathy in France", 1969)

Witness to the beginnings of homeopathy in France.

This volume contains a collection of the most important pharmaceutical works of Johann Zwelfer (1618-1668, German physician, chemist and pharmacist). He is best known for correcting errors in the formulation of the remedies published in the "Pharmacopoeia Augustana", which corresponds to the "Augsburg Code" (a compilation of many remedies very commonly used by German physicians), and which he published in his "Animadversiones in Pharmacopoeiam Augustanam". He enjoyed great popularity, but was also much belittled by his German colleagues, such as Luc Schroeck.
His "Pharmacopoeia Regia" is an encyclopaedic pharmacopoeia.
