Gesner's great natural history, " His- 

 toria animalium," was published in 

 Zurich in 5 parts, 1551-87. fol. It 

 comprises a total of about 4,500 folio 

 pages, and is illustrated by hundreds 

 of woodcuts. The various parts of the 

 history were often reprinted in full or 

 in abridged form and were frequently 

 translated. A complete second edi- 

 tion was issued at Frankfort, 1617-20.
