CORDUS, Euricius (1486-1535). Ain Regiment Wie man sich vor der neuen plage. Marburg: 1529.
A rare edition of a German medical professor’s account of the sudor anglicus, or English sweating sickness. First appearing in England in 1485, the previously unknown disease caused panic in the population after rapidly killing thousands. Further outbreaks occurred in 1507 and 1517, before reaching continental Europe in 1528. The last recorded outbreak was in England in 1551, since when it has not been seen. Cf. Garrison-Morton 5520; cf. VD16 C 5097-5104 (this edition not recorded); cf. Wellcome I, 1588-1589.
Quarto (175 x 141mm). (Faint stains into text at outer bottom corner.) 20th-century cloth-backed boards, spine label (removed label leaving faint traces of adhesive); housed in a modern cloth case. Provenance: Frankfurt, Paul Ehrlich Institute (later the Royal Institute for Experimental Therapy; stamps) – bookseller’s description pasted in blank space on title.
