The text of 'Ars Medicinalis' and 'De Constitutione Artis Medicae' by Galen with commentary by Theodor Zwinger (1533-1588, Swiss physician and humanist) and printed by Zwinger's uncle, Johannes Oporinus. Oporinus had worked in the workshop of Johann Froben during his time as a student at the University of Basel; he also, at the age of 20, acted as Paracelsus' assistant during the latter's time in Basel. Oporinus subsequently ran his own workshop while simultaneously acting as professor of Greek and Latin at the University of Basel, but ultimately gave up teaching to focus exclusively on printing. Oporinus's press produced several notable and controversial works, including the first edition of Vesalius's 'De human corporis fabric' and the first-ever printed edition of the Qur'an, a Latin translation for which he was briefly imprisoned. 1383019.
