Couverture rigide. Condition: Bon. Paris, chez d'Houry Père, 1748 ; 1 vol. pet. in-8 (19 x 12.5 cm), (4), 344, (12) pp., portrait de l'auteur en frontispice et 16 planches h.t. dont 2 dépliantes ; pleine basane d'époque, dos à nerfs orné, tranches rouges, mors fendus en tête sur 2 cm, coiffe supérieure usée, très petite déchirure périphérique au frontispice, ex-libris gravé du Dr. François Moutier, bon état. Ouvrage recherché avant tout pour son illustration. Le frontispice (dépliant) est représenté par un portrait de l'auteur, montrant avec son index un enfant mort-né avec son placenta. Les planches, de belle qualité, illustrent des foetus en position "contre-nature" et une version podalique. Cosme Viardel fut l'un des premiers chirurgiens français à se consacrer à l'obstétrique ; il exerça à Paris. Il fut sévèrement critiqué par Mauriceau, qui l'accusa d'être d'une "ignorance crasse". Si Viardel était imbu d'idées parfois superstitieuses et fantaisistes, il eut le mérite de blâmer l'usage abusif des instruments. Il recommande la version suivie de l'extraction par les pieds. L'édition originale, fort rare, avait paru en 1671.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Bon. Pleine basane de l'époque, dos à cinq nerfs orné et doré portant la pièce de titre. Un volume in-8 (190x119 mm), un portrait dépliant en frontispice-(4)-344-(12) pages et 16 planches dont 2 dépliantes. Accroc à la coiffe supérieure, coins abîmés. Quelques rousseurs, planche page 206 froissée. Troisième édition avec des remarques qui servent d'éclaircissement et de supplément. Viardel était un accoucheur célèbre dans la seconde moitié du dix-septième siècle. Si son ouvrage fut sévèrement jugé par Mauriceau, on y trouve néanmoins des faits intéressants et sur quelques points la pratique de l'auteur était fort judicieuse, comme par exemple son aversion pour les instruments meurtriers dont on abusait tant alors.(Dezeimeris).

*** Remarquable illustration: un étrange portrait dépliant en frontispice où l'auteur montre du doigt un enfant mort-né. 16 autres planches montrent les manoeuvres de l'accouchement, deux sont dépliantes et à plusieurs sujets. L'accoucheur Cosme Viardel jouit à Paris d'une grande renommée dans la seconde moitié du XVIIème siècle. Son ouvrage est celui d'un praticien; il y réagit contre l'abus des instruments meurtriers dont on abusait tant alors.

First Edition
Mit 15 Kupfertafeln. 22 Bll., 371 Seiten. Halblederband des 18. Jhdts. mit Rückenschild und etwas Rückenvergoldung. Seltenes Geburtshilfebuch des 17. Jahrhunderts, gegenüber der Erstausgabe von 1671 um eine Tafel erweitert). - Die Kupfer zeigen verschiedene Kindeslagen im Mutterleib. - "Bezüglich der Fragen der Konzeption und der Entwickelung sind Hippokrates, Galen, Aristoteles und Avicenna Viardels Autoritäten. Dass aber auch seine praktischen Lehren, wie v. Siebold II p. 156 angibt, Wiederholungen aus den Schriften der Alten seien, ist nicht zutreffend. Ebensowenig hat er sich, wie es bei dem genannten Geschichtsforscher, ibid p. 157, heisst, 'im ganzen hauptsächlich an die geburtshülflichen Lehren des Guillemeau gehalten'. In der Praxis sucht er sich vielfach seinen eigenen Weg und sein Streben geht in einer Zeit, die eine unschädliche Kopfzange noch nicht kannte, vor allem dahin, die Instrumente zu verbannen, da die Hand das beste aller Instrumente sei. Zu welch mühevollen Prozeduren er mit dieser Anschauung gelegentlich seine Zuflucht nehmen musste, werden einige Beispiele zeigen. (Fasbender 175 ff., sehr ausführlich). - Vorsatz mit dem Titelblatt im Innensteg etwas verklebt und mit Einriss, sonst nur gering fleckig und gut erhalten. - Das große Kupfer seitlich etwas angeschnitten. - Krivatsy 12385. Hirsch-H. VI, 103 f. Fasbender 175ff.

Nous pensons que ce fer a dû être gravé pour le surintendant et qu'il a été ensuite utilisé par d'autres membres de la famille Fouquet.") Cosme Viardel était chirurgien de la Reine Marie-Thérèse, mais aussi un accoucheur de renom; l'édition originale est de 1671.

First Edition
VIARDEL, Cosme. OBSERVATIONS SUR LA PRATIQUE DES ACCOUCHEMENTS, Naturels, contre nature, & Monstrueux. Paris, d'Houry Pere, 1748. Octavo. [iv]344[12]pp. + [17]ff. Contains 17 etched plates. Three, a folding portrait frontispiece and two folding obstetrical illustrations, were in the original edition of 1671. Viardel, Royal Surgeon to Queen Marie-Therese, was unusual in presenting methods which, he says, eliminate the need for instruments in childbirth, and adds a chapter on female ailments. This edition is updated with notes. Extremely rare. Folding plates have inconspicuous archival repairs; one later plate shows light stains; faint foxing to a few pages, but on the whole internally fine. Bound in an attractive contemporary mottled calf with spine label. Light wear to extremities and small nicks to spine ends. (Walleriana 9946, 1st edition.).
