Buonanni Filippo. Observationes circa viventia, quae in rebus non viventibus reperiuntur [Primo tomo]. Romae: Typis Dominici Antonij Herculis, 1691. In-4° (mm 220x168). Pagine xx, 342, [4] con 30 carte di tavole incise in rame di cui una ripiegata. Antiporta allegorica incisa in rame e frontespizio calcografico della seconda parte a carta QQ2v. Timbro abraso al frontespizio. Legatura coeva in pergamena su cartone, titoli manoscritti al dorso. Edizione originale delle Observationes del gesuita Filippo Buonanni. L`autore raccoglie i risultati di diverse osservazioni condotte con il microscopio, di cui si costruì personalmente un esemplare a tre lenti (DSB II, 591-592: ""Buonanni made extensive studies in the natural sciences; he constructed his own microscope with three lenses, which proved to be an ingenious mechanism for continual observation""). Una parte dell`opera consta di una risposta a quanto Francesco Redi pubblicò nel 1684 nelle sue Osservazioni (vd. lotto 475), in netta contrapposizione con la teoria della generazione spontanea sostenuta da Buonanni.
