The Latin text of Secretum secretorum was first translated from the Arabic "Kitab Sirr al-asrar" by Philip of Tripoli, early in the thirteenth century., "Secretum secretorum" has been spuriously attributed to Aristotle. Work is a medieval treatise taking the form of a pseudoepigraphical letter supposedly from Aristotle to Alexander the Great during his campaigns in Persia. First Latin translation was issued in 12th century based on a 10th century Arabic encyclopedic treatise called "Kitab Sirr al-asrar" discussing a wide range of topics, including statecraft, ethics, physiognomy, astrology, alchemy, magic and medicine, Translated by Giouanni Manente., Signatures: *⁴ A-2F⁴., Leaf number XLI repeated in foliation., Title printed in frame within decorative floral border., Woodcut vignette on recto of leaf *2 title page has text "Iustus ut palma florebit"; printer's device in colophon identified as Vaccaro 418 in EDIT 16., "Moralita" appears to be a paraphrase of Ethica Nicomachea and the "Phisionomia" based in part on Roger Bacon's version of Secretum secretorum Cf. Riley.
