作品描述：
ARISTOTELES (384–322 B.C.)
De animalibus. Translated from Greek into Latin by Theodorus Gaza (c.1400–1475). Edited by Ludovicus Podocatharus (1429–1504). Venice: Johannes de Colonia and Johannes Manthen, 1476.
First edition of the first printed text on biology. Aristotle’s
De animalibus comprises his three main zoological works:
De historia animalium,
De partibus animalium and
De generatione animalium. They form the first collection of biological treatises ever printed. None of these texts were included in the
Opera until the Aldine Greek edition of 1495–98. They contain “an immense collection of biological data—anatomical, physiological, behavioral—on over five hundred species of animals" (Grolier
Medicine).
Theodorus Gaza was a leading Classical scholar, and it was through studying his translation of the present texts, along with the Greek originals printed in the Aldine
Opera, that Aldus Manutius recommended learning Greek. Goff A-973; BMC V, 232; GW 2350; HC *1699; BSB-InkA-678; Bod-inc A-390; Klebs 85.1; Osler
