One of the great medical authorities of the early sixteenth
century, Girolamo Fracastoro (1478-1553) was also a prominent
Neo-Latin poet. This volume includes his famous didactic poem
Syphilis in three books, which gave the name to the disease and
contains the first poetical description of Columbus's discovery of
America. Also included are a short Biblical epic, the Joseph, and
the Carmina, a collection of shorter poetry in various metres. This
volume presents an updated edition of all the Latin texts, two
previously unpublished short poems, and the first complete
translation into English of Fracastoro's Latin poetry.
This is a new release of the original 1934 edition.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and
practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the
extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases,
their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology,
agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even
cookbooks, are all contained here.++++The below data was compiled
