CLEYER, Andreas (fl. 1665-1697), editor. Specimen medicinae sinicae; sive Opuscula medica ad mentem sinensium. Frankfurt: J. P. Zubrodt, 1682.
4 (195 x 160mm). Title in red and black with engraved device, 30 numbered engraved plates, 72 small woodcuts in text representing Chinese symbols of the pulse, 36 small woodcuts representing diseases of the tongue, one full-page woodcut of the hands, 2 large cuts of diagrams representing the circulation of the blood, 5 leaves (n2-n4, o1-2) of letterpress tables. (Title shaved at lower margin with loss of date and with two partially erased library stamps, plate 17 with short, neatly-repaired tear, some plates cropped with slight loss, n2-n4 shaved with slight loss at outer margins, E1 verso with partially erased library stamp at lower margin, some light waterstaining at inner gutter, without blank G4.)
[Bound with:]
CLAUBERG, Johann. Dictat physica privata: id est Physica contracta, seu theses physicae, commentario perpetuo explicata. Frankfurt: J. G. Seyler, 1681. 4. Woodcut title device. (A few quires waterstained at inner gutter.) Together 2 works in one volume, contemporary vellum with yapp edges.
FIRST EDITION of Cleyer's book, the first illustrated work on Chinese medicine to be published in the west, and only the second book on the subject. In fact, Cleyer, a physician employed by the East India Company, was no more than the compiler. The unacknowledged Latin translations of the Mo cheh, a work primarily devoted to pulse theory, were by the Polish Jesuit Michael Boym (1612-1659). There is also some discussion of acupuncture as a subject related to the pulse, and the 30 remarkable plates taken from Chang Chieh-Pin's Lei ching (1624), though commonly mistaken for anatomical drawings at the time, actually represent acu-tracts though not acu-points. Garrison-Morton 6492; Krivatsy NLM 6492; Waller 9107; Wellcome II, p. 359; Norman 489.
