[Pseudo-Aristotle]. Aristoteles Master-Piece, or, The Secrets of Generation Displayed in all the parts thereof. Containing, 1. The signs of barrenness. 2. The way of getting a boy or girl. 3. Of the likeness of children to parents. 4. Of the infusion of the soul into the infant. 5. Of monstrous births, and the reasons thereof. 6. Of the benefit of marriage to both sexes. 7. The prejudice of unequal matches. 8. The discovery of insufficiency. 9. The cause and cure of the green-sickness. 10. A discourse of maiden-heads. 11. How a midwife ought to be qualified. 12. Directions and cautions to midwifes. 13. Of the privities. 14. The fabrick of the womb. 15. The use and action of the genitals. 16. Signs of conception, and whether of a male or female. 17. To discover false conceptions. 18. Instructions for women with child. 19. For preventing miscarriage. 20. For women in child-bed. 21. Of ordering new-born infants, and many other very useful particulars. To which is added a word of advice to both sexes in the act of copulation: and the pictures of several monsterous births drawn to the life, 1st edition, Printed for J. How, and are to be sold next door to the Anchor Tavern in Sweethings-Rents in Cornhil, 1684, woodcut frontispiece of a hairy woman and a black child born to white parents, cancel title-page, 6 woodcuts of monstrous births (including repeat of frontispiece) at end, with the blank H12, foremargin of frontispiece torn with loss not affecting image or text, title-page close-trimmed at foremargin (touching printed rule) and lower margin barely shaving first word of final line of imprint '"things", old ink spots and smudges to frontispiece, title and lower text area of leaves A3v and A4r, not affecting legibility, some minor spotting and dust-soiling, corner curling throughout, scattered small marginal splits, tightly stitched with evidence of very minor worm-tracing close to some catch-words, small tear with blank paper loss to foremargin of final text leaf (H11) and lower outer corner of final leaf (I6), I2 with long horizontal split, contemporary limp vellum folded and stitched from a 16th-century land deed with text in English partially visible on pastedowns, some soiling and wear, 12mo (140 x 85 mm) A surprisingly good copy of a very rare complete first edition of the most notorious sex manual of the age. 'Aristotle's Masterpiece was the most popular book about women's bodies, sex, pregnancy, and childbirth in Britain and America from its first appearance in 1684 up to at least the 1870s. More than 250 editions are known, but all are very rare... It was sold furtively by country peddlers and in general stores and taverns; regular booksellers seldom advertised it, though they usually had it under the counter' (The Library Company of Philadelphia, 'Treasures', online catalogue). The attribution to Aristotle is completely spurious and no doubt a ploy to give the risqu‚ work respectability. In fact it was assembled from Levinus Lemnius's The Secret Miracles of Nature (1564) and Jakob Rff's midwifery manual De conceptu et generatione hominis (1554). Although it was effectively banned until the mid-twentieth century, the prohibition didn't keep it from circulating: it was reprinted endlessly until the early twentieth century and became one of the most notorious and widely distributed sex books in the English language, with a London edition being published as late as 1930. Such enduring popularity was partly due to the practical advice on pregnancy and the care of infants, and partly to its rather sensationalised descriptions of the sexual act and forms of monstrosity. This is the earliest publication date for the Master-piece, ESTC listing 3 variant settings of 1684, all printed by J. How, with no priority having been established. ESTC records only the incomplete British Library copy of our setting, which has line 11 of title ending "both", line 18 of title ends "Ge-", first line of imprint ends "sold", signature B5 is under the "nt Bl" of "effluent Blood" and on p. 190 the fifth line from bottom begins with a capital "Q". Identically, this copy has "Swee/things" rather than "Sweetings" in the imprint. Curiously, the only two complete copies of this setting noted have both been recently sold at auction by Bonhams, London: 12 November 2014, lot 47 & 24 June 2015, lot 157. In total ESTC records seven copies of the 1684 settings (British Library, Guildhall Library, Royal College of Surgeons, University of Pennsylvania, U.S. National Library of Medicine, Yale University, 2 copies), but all are incomplete to varying degrees. ESTC R504793; Wing A3697fA. (1)
