‎---- BON EXEMPLAIRE ---- "LE PRINCIPAL PROPAGATEUR DU STAHLIANISME" --- Deuxième édition REVUE et CORRIGEE ----- "JUNCKER fut l'un des disciples les plus distingués de STAHL, le meilleur interprète et le principal propagateur de ses doctrines. Ses ouvrages, écrits avec beaucoup de méthode et de clarté furent beaucoup plus lus que ceux de son maître". (Dezeimeris) ------ "Juncker, 1679/1759, studied medicine in Erfurt where he received his M.D. degree in 1717. In 1716 he had returned to Halle as physician to the Royal Pedagogical Institute and Orphanage beginning a distinguished career in that city which culminated in his appointment to the chair of medicine in 1729. The University of Halle possessed two of the outstanding chemical and medical theorists of the early eighteenth century, G.E. STAHL and F. HOFFMANN. Juncker benefited from his close association with these brilliant colleagues and became one of STAHL's most gifted and prominent disciples. Juncker corresponded with STAHL and published numerous dissertations and books that expounded and developed Stahlian ideas in chemistry and medicine. He reiterated STAHL's admonition to keep these two disciplines distinct, arguing that chemical theory had little to offer medical practice at that time. His medical treatises censured both the iatrochemical and iatromathematical traditions and elaborated Stahl's vitalist theories. JUNCKER DISSEMINATED STAHLIAN VITALISM THROUGHOUT EUROPE and assisted in establishing an alternative in medical thought to the mechanical theories of BOERHAAVE". (DSB VII pp. 188)**4880/E6DE‎
