Note

1. Added engraved t.p., illustrated, signed M.V. Somer fecit.
2. Running title (main work): De conservanda bona valetudine.
3. The main work, in verse, is of uncertain authorship; the present ed. is the first to ascribe authorship to Joannes de Mediolano on t.p. The prose commentary is here wrongly attributed to Arnaldus de Villanova. Contains the commentary as altered by Curis and a preface partly original and partly extracted from Moreau's edition.
4. Purportedly written by the physicians of the school of medicine at Salerno as a gift to Robert, duke of Normandy (eldest son of William the Conqueror). Cf. Sir Alexander Croke's ed., Oxford, 1830 (Introd. and Cat. of editions); Choulant, L. Handbuch der Bücherkunde für die ältere Medicin (2. Aufl.), p. 264ff; present ed., p. 276-277.
5. Error in paging: nos. 177-178 omitted.
6. Signatures: *-2*¹², A-Y¹².
