Excerpt from Observations on Aneurism: Selected From the Works of the Principal Writers on That Disease From the Earliest Periods to the Close of the Last Century

In rendering the very barbarous Latin of several of the German and Italian writers on Aneurism into English, I have had a somewhat difficult task to perform; but I trust that it will be found that I have succeeded in giving the correct meaning of the very complicated sentences of some of these writers, though this may occasionally have been accomplished at the expense of the style.

Excerpt from Observations on Aneurism: Selected From the Works of the Principal Writers on That Disease From the Earliest Periods to the Close of the Last Century

The Council of the Sydenham Society having done me the honour to intrust me with the editing of a volume to consist of selections from the more important 'Scriptores Minores,' on Aneurism together with Extracts from those systematic works that contain observations of peculiar interest and originality on this subject not to be found in detached Memoirs I am unwilling to let it go forth without giving some explanation of the reasons which have influenced the selections that have been made and making a few remarks on the arrangement that has been adopted in it.

In making a selection from the very numerous Memoirs that have at various times been published on the Pathology and Treatment of Aneurism I have endeavoured as far as possible, to be guided by the fact of the Essay under consideration, containing either the original indication, or the fullest and most accurate account of an advance in the Pathology, or an alteration or improvement in the Treatment, of the disease; and I think that it will be found, on a closer examination of this volume, that each one has been chosen in accordance with this principle.
