Description: Leipzig (Lipsiae), Literis Andreae Martini Schedii, [1717], 4to., unbound, coloured edges, [76] pp., with decorative head and tail pieces, without binding, but otherwise in good condition. In this dissertation Fibigerus (Fiebiger, 1699-?) discusses the study by his stepfather Gumprecht (1678-1743). The work by Gumprecht is the oldest known essay in German about racial hygiene. A later study was written about this work in 1941 by Walter Scheidt. Lit: Walter Scheidt, Sudhoffs Archiv für Geschichte der Medizin und der Naturwissenschaften Bd. 34, H. 1/4 (1941), pp. 152-161, "Die älteste bisher bekannte deutsche Schrift über Rassenhygiene: „De p???te???a eruditorum“ von Joh. Paul Gumprecht aus dem Jahre 1717". We sell this book out of antiquarian interest only. We do not advocate the ideology contained in the book.
