= Provenance: the collection of G.A. Lindeboom w. his bookplate on upper pastedown. Lindeboom 106: "After Boerhaave's death several authors published books under this or a similar title. Haller, probably Boerhaave's most gifted and productive pupil, edited the lectures given by Boerhaave and taken down by his pupils. Afterwards, a few professors built up their lectures as an explanation of Boerhaave's Institutiones, and published them later. Boerhaave's teaching books proved for a long time to be a most suitable aid to professors teaching medicine. Boerhaave's books were used for this purpose even at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century (...)."; Wellcome II, p.190; Hertzberger 201.

Lindeboom 103: "Several others have based their works on Boerhaave's book on the Institutes or on his lectures on this subject.

= Provenance: the collection of G.A. Lindeboom w. his bookplate on upper pastedown. G. van Swieten was a medical student of H. Boerhaave. During Boerhaave's lectures, van Swieten adapted an existing shorthand system to medical language, so his lecture notes reflect Boerhaave's presentation closely. Their mutual respect led Boerhaave to show his most interesting private cases to van Swieten. At various times Boerhaave stated that van Swieten would be the most suitable person to succeed him as a professor. Due to their very close relation, van Swieten considered it his life-work as a medical writer to comment on Boerhaave's Aphorisms. "The Commentaria, which greatly contributed to the dissemination of Boerhaave's ideas beyond the circles of his pupils, was reprinted many times and was translated into four languages." (DSB XIII, p.181f). Cf. Bibl. Walleriana 9393; Wellcome V, p.219; BMN I, p.64; Lindeboom 213; Hertzberger 264.
