Hirsch-Hüb. III, 870. VD16 L 3258. – Erste und einzige Ausgabe, selten. – Interessante philosophisch-medizinische Abhandlung über den Einfluss von Emotionen auf die menschliche Gesundheit. – „Following Galen, the theory commonly held since antiquity that the control of the emotions and their balanced relationship are characteristics of a good, virtuous and healthy person is systematically discussed in the 16th century by the doctor and philosopher Luigi Lusini, and placed upon a (patho-)physiological foundation. In his treatise De compescendis animi affectibus per moralem philosophiamet medendi artem published in 1562 and divided into three books, Luisini is able to reveal the integral interconnection of the theories the soul and the emotions, moral philosophy and medicine. This allows two complementary approaches to therapy to be developed which from today’s perspective appear almost prophetic: a complete cure for the soul is only possible through the combination of philosophy and medicine“ (M. G. Bondio, Medical Ethics, Premodern Negotiations between Medicine and Philosophy). – Der ital. Mediziner und Philosoph L.
