Ortus Sanitatis
''Ortus Sanitatis'' ((英語:''The Garden of Health'')), also known as the ''Hortus'', is the first natural history encyclopaedia, published by Jacob Meydenbach in Mainz, Germany on 23 June 1491. It describes species in the natural world along with their medicinal uses and modes of preparation. It is in part an extended Latin translation of the ''German Herbarius'' published in 1485 but, unlike that earlier work, also deals with animals, birds, fish and stones. The author does not restrict himself to dealing only with real creatures, but also includes accounts of mythical beasts such as the hydra, phoenix, harpy, dragon and zitiron.
The woodcut illustrations are stylised but easily recognizable, and many were re-used in other works. In addition to the representations of samples there are also pictures showing their use by humans and scenes in which figures are surrounded by the subjects in their natural environment, such as standing by a river containing fish and mermaids.
==Publication history==
The first edition of ''Ortus Sanitatis'' was printed by Jacob Meydenbach in Mainz, Germany in 1491. A French edition by Antoine Vérard was printed in Paris in about 1500, under the title ''Ortus sanitatis translate de latin en francois''. The last complete copy of ''Ortus Sanitatis'' appeared in about 1539, printed by Phillipe le Noir and sold in Paris under the title of ''Le jardin de sante''.
