Selten - Erste und einzige Ausgabe! Creve war ein bedeutender Schriftsteller auf dem Gebiete der Gynäkologie und gibt hier einige unbekannte Tatsachen und eine neue Darstellung des wichtigen Themas; die guten Abbildungen sind von Keck gezeichnet und wurden sogar von Creve's Lehrer und Freund Soemmerring verbessert. Johann Kaspar Ignatz Anton Créve, "geb. zu Coblenz 28. Oct. 1769, studirte und promovirte 1792 in Mainz mit der Diss.: "De fracturis ossium pelvis", erhielt daselbst schon 1793 eine ausserord.

Creve war ein sehr fruchtbarer Schriftsteller. Ein vollständiges Verzeichnis seiner Schriften findet sich in den unten citirten Quellen. Erwähnenswerth ist die Arbeit: "Beiträge zu Galvani's Versuchen über die Kräfte der thierischen Elekfricität auf die Bewegung der Muskeln" (Frank f. und Leipz. 1793), für die er 1798 von der Edinb.

First Edition
First Edition. 8vo, pp.xiv, 226, [2 (errata)], with one folding engraved plate; small wormtrack to lower inner corner of first three leaves (not affecting text), uniformly browned, else clean and fresh; a very good copy in contemporary half calf with speckled sides, spine gilt-ruled in compartments with old shelf-label at head; early nineteenth-century stamp of the Gesellschaft zur Beförderung gemeinnütziger Tätigkeit to title.First edition of this uncommon contribution to the medical literature in which Creve proposes a new method of ascertaining death using a metal conductor attached to muscle tissue, part of the body of research that inspired Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Carl Caspar Creve (1769 1853), professor of medicine at Mainz, was the author of numerous works on medical subjects. His method (illustrated in the folding plate at the end of the book) posits that an electric shock would function as an irritant even to those who appeared to be dead. The work opens with a number of case studies of those who either were, or narrowly avoided being buried alive, highlighting the prevalence of the problem, before offering a survey of the literature on the subject and identifying some of the conditions which could lead to the misdiagnosis of death. Creve then goes on to explain the process of muscle irritation on which his proofing method depends, with a folding plate at the end depicting the tool to be used. It is unclear whether Creve's proposal was ever put into practice. Five years after the publication of Vom Metallreize, however, British chemist Sir Humphry Davy would explicitly acknowledge Creve as a pioneer of galvanic experimentation in a lecture which would form the basis of his A Discourse, Introductory to a Course of Lectures on Chemistry the following year, likely 'the only strictly scientific work Mary Shelley mentioned reading' in her journal on 28 October 1816 whilst working on Frankenstein (Crouch, p. 35). It is likely 'to the experiments of Humboldt, Grapengiesser, and Creve [ ] that Percy Shelley referred in his Preface to Frankenstein when he insisted that "the event on which this fiction is founded has been supposed, by Dr Darwin and some of the physiological writers of Germany, as not of impossible occurrence"' (Mellor, p. 106). Ronalds I, p. 119. See Crouch, 'Davy's A Discourse, Introductory to a Course of Lectures on Chemistry' in Keats-Shelley Journal 27 (1978), pp. 35-44; Mellor, Mary Shelley (1988). Language: German.
