Early Western Manuscripts in The National Library of Medicine A Short-Title List Cover art from Hunayn ibn-Ishaq al-' Ibadi (Joannitius), Isagoge (DeRicci/Bond & Faye #78) Single copies of this publication may be obtained by writing: History of Medicine Division National Library of Medicine 8600 Rockville Pike Bethesda, Maryland 20894 Early Western Manuscripts in The National Library of Medicine A Short-Title List Compiled by Elizabeth Tunis History of Medicine Division • National Library of Medicine Bethesda, Maryland • 1989 Introduction The National Library of Medicine has in its collection ninety Western manuscripts written before the beginning of the 17th century. Cataloging information for these manuscripts is fragmented and, in the case of recently acquired pieces, unavailable to the scholarly community. The following short-title list is intended as an interim bibliographic tool, a means of providing access to these manuscripts until they are added to NLM's on-line catalog, CATLINE. Information about some of NLM's manuscripts are recorded in Dorothy M. Schullian and Francis E. Sommer, A Catalogue of Incunabula and Manuscripts in the Army Medical Library (1950) and Seymour De Ricci and W. J. Wilson, Census of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts in the United States (1935-1940), supplemented by C. U. Faye and W. H. Bond, Supplement to the Census of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts in the United States and Canada (1962). Those manuscripts added to the Library's collection since 1950 are not recorded in Schullian and Sommer, nor are the 14 added since 1962 recorded in the Census. This short-title list provides seven types of information for each manuscript: 1. The De Ricci/Bond and Faye number, by which the list is arranged. [Numbers in square brackets indicate manuscripts not recorded by DeRicci/Bond and Faye.] 2.. Schullian and Sommer number. 3. The reel number of an NLM microfilm, for use when microfilm copies of the manuscripts are ordered through interlibrary loan. 4. Names of authors, sometimes abbreviated, but established within the name authority structure of the NLM. 1 5. A short title of the work. 6. The century the manuscript was written, when known or inferred with certainty. 7. Miscellaneous notes. Although this short-title list is the only complete listing of all NLM's manuscripts, it does not contain complete cataloging information. The Census of De Ricci, et al., and Schullian and Sommer must still be searched for essential information. For more detailed information about manuscripts listed here but not included in the previously published book catalogs, scholars may address: History of Medicine Division National Library of Medicine Bethesda, Maryland 20894 In addition to manuscripts held by the NLM and described briefly here, the National Library of Medicine also has a microfilm collection of six hundred medical manuscripts held by European libraries. The records for these films do not appear in CATLINE or in any book catalog, but there is a detailed manual catalog in the History of Medicine Division. Specific questions about authors, subjects, and libraries represented in this important collection may be addressed to the History of Medicine Division at the address above. Under the agreements with the libraries holding the original manuscripts, these microfilms do not circulate through interlibrary loan and cannot be photographically copied. They must be used in the History of Medicine Division. 2 Early DeRicci/ Schullian Reel Author Bond& Faye 1 495 48-104 Avicenna 2 511 48-107 Avicenna 2 511 48-107 Galen 2 511 48-107 Hippocrates 2 511 48-107 Hippocrates 2 511 48-107 Hippocrates 3 493 48-103 Aristotle 4 514 63-17,48-108 5 Marcus Antonius Ruspagiarius 6 503 48-105 Colonna, Egidio 7 496 48-104 Bartholomaeus Anglicus 8 9 Arderne, John 10 11 505 48-106 Gerard du Berry 12 Constantinus Africanus 13 491 63-12;48-103 Albich, Siegmund 13 491 63-12;48-103 Joannes de Burgundia 13 491 63-12;48-103 13 491 63-12;48-103 Pietro d'Abano 14 492 63-13;48:103 Alderotti, Taddeo 14 492 63-13;48:103 Alderotti, Taddeo 14 492 63-13;48:103 Alderotti, Taddeo 14 492 63-13:48:103 Alderotti, Taddeo 14 492 63-13:48:103 Alderotti, Taddeo 15 494 63-15;48-103 Arnaldus de Villanova 15 494 63-15:48-103 Arnaldus de Villanova 15 494 63-15;48-103 Arnaldus de Villanova 15 494 63-15:48-103 Arnaldus de Villanova 16 498 63-14:48-105 Bernard de Gordon 17 499 63-14;48-105 Bruno da Longoburgo 18 500 63-15:48-105 Burkhard von Horneck 18 500 63-15;48-105 Burkhard von Horneck 19 501 63-14;48-105 Dino del Garbo 20 502 48-105 Dominici, Domenico 20 502 48-105 Dominici, Domenico 21 504 63-15:48-106 Galeazzo da Santa Sofia Manuscripts in the National Library of Medicine Title Century Notes Canon medicinae 1:2-4:111:1-22;! v":1-2 14th Canon medicinae 1:2.3 chapters Ml; l:4; Prayers Liber Tegni l-lll 214 Aphorism i (1485-25 Oct. 1486) 15th Prognostica 15th De regimine acutorum morborum l-lll 15th De animalibus 13th Medieval English leechbook 15th De epidemia 15th De regimine principum 14th De proprietatibus rerum 14th Recepta varia missing Opera chirurgica Treatise of urines (1500) 15th missing Super Viatico Constantini 13th Viaticus 13th Regimen sanitatis (1459) 15th De pestilentia Astrological Miscellany De physiognomia Expositiones super librum Tegni Galeni 14th In three vols.
