Kenneth Fitzpatrick Russell: the first reader to the Gordon Craig Library.

A review of the life and achievements of Kenneth Fitzpatrick Russell, whose death in his 76th year robbed us of a civilized gentleman who was at the zenith of his creative output, would be a daunting task, if only because of the breadth of his hobbies and interests: art and medical literature; reading; sinology and seal carving; numismatics, medical philately; bookbinding, collecting bookplates; carpentry; metal work, including pewter casting and silversmithing; model ship building and cooking. Yet these various interests were simply a backdrop to his public career at the University of Melbourne and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, where he laid the foundations of an international reputation as scholar and collector.

[Medical books in the possession of Canadian health professionals in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries].

This study, based on the data found in notarized inventories of the deceased, ex-libris or bookplates, and listings of books in institutional libraries, shows clearly that circulation of medical books, generally imported from Europe, was next to non-existent in the general public but growing steadily in the Canadian medical corps during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This growth is proof of the increasing professionalization of the medical corps and institutionalization of medical know-how and expertise during that period.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau's copy of Albrecht von Haller's Historia stirpium indigenarum Helvetiae inchoata (1768).

Jean-Jacques Rousseau sold his botanical texts to Daniel Malthus (father of Thomas Malthus) about 1775. Two of these are now in the Old Library, Jesus College, Cambridge, but all the rest have long been thought lost. However, a copy of Albrecht von Haller's Historia stirpium indigenarum Helvetiae inchoata (1768) in the Lindley Library, Royal Horticultural Society, London, bears Rousseau's name and seems to have been annotated by him. The volume contains the bookplate of Jane Dalton, a cousin to whom Malthus willed "all[his] Botanical Books in which the name of Rousseau is written". Haller was well-known to Rousseau, who while in exile in the Swiss Jura (1763-1765), studied under one of Haller's collaborators, Abraham Gagnebin. Rousseau cited Haller's entry 762 when describing a species of Seseli to the Duchess of Portland.

[Pharmaceutical literature in the library of the Kuks Hospice I. A contribution to the history of the hospital pharmacy of the Brethern of Mercy called "The Pomegranate" at Kuks].

During the research of the history of the Baroque pharmacy of the Merciful Brethern at the Kuks Hospice (Eastern Bohemia), established in 1743, and its professional standard, pharmaceutical literature was found at the preserved hospice library. The present author first focused on the existence of basic, obligatory literature: dispensatories, tariffs of medicaments, and juridical literature (pharmaceutical laws). There survived a small number of these books because many books were destroyed during various wars. The following dispensatories (pharmacopoeias) were found: Dispensarorium pharmaceuticum Austriaco-Viennense 1729/1738, Dispensatorium Regium et Electorale Borusso-Brandenburgicum 1744, Dispensatorium pharmaceuticum Pragensae renovatum 1750, Pharmacopoea Austriaco-provincialis 1774, 1775, 1790, 1794 (including a critical commentary by Z. G. Huszty 1797), The Military Dispensatory 1795, Pharmacopoea Austriaca 1812, 1814 and 1855. There are a few books of the tariffs of medicaments (only from 1795, 1816 and 1866) and juridical literature. These dispensatories (and their occurrence) will be useful for an analysis of laboratory preparation and supplying this pharmacy. A few illustrations of pharmaceutical literature, found bookplates, and a print of a painting of Count F. A. Sporck are attached.
