Description

Excerpt from The Life of Paracelsus, Theophrastus Von Hohenheim, 1493-1541 Work of other kinds hindered this under taking until the early spring of 1910, when I was set free to carry out a project which after years of pondering had assumed the character of an imperative and sacred duty. At its outset I was encouraged by the opinion and advice of Dr. John Comrie, m.a., whose lectures in the University of Edinburgh upon the History of Medicine have already created wide interest in all that illuminates his subject, and to him I owe my thanks. To the Librarians of the Royal College of Physicians, and of the Advocates' Library in Edinburgh, and to those of other libraries at home and abroad, in which I became acquainted with the earliest editions of Hohenheim's works, I am indebted for constant courtesy and help.
