Rigaku nyuumon (Natuurkundig handboek voor leerlingen in de heel-en geneeskunde van J.N. Isfording.)

Descripción

Extremely rare Austrian medical book in Dutch, published in Japan. An extremely rare first volume of a two-volume set. Johann Nepomuk Isfordink, or Isfordink Edler von Kostnitz (1776 - 1841) as he was known from 1835, was a doctor and surgeon, military medic and the director of the Josephinum in Vienna. There is no evident explanation as for why an introduction in physics for students in surgery and medicine was translated into Dutch and published in Fukushima, but the title page names Amsterdam as the place of publishing. Possibly it is a pirate edition. This book greatly influenced Japanese medicine. Original Japanese fukuro toji binding with an original title slip. Size 24 x 16,5 cm. (3) + 45 leaves. Volume 1 only. Ex-libris paste down on the front cover. Ex-owner stamp on the first and last pages. Occasional rubbing on the extremities of the cover. Minor stains in the contents. Tiny hole on the second leaf. Footnotes in the black and white and red inks. Overall near fine to fine condition. Comes with a non-original custom slip case. Text in Dutch. e. N° de ref. del artículo 1089
