	Achillini (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The basic difference between the orthodox Averroistic doctrine and the views of Achillini concern the unity of the intellect, the object of knowledge, the theory of the concept, the theory of the double truth, and the relation between detailed natural science and metaphysics.
		One consequence of his approach was that he distinguished two objects of knowledge (De orbibus, Bol 1498): the universale — the object of the intellect, and the singulare — the object of the senses.
		In the question of the universals, Achillini wanted to connect the Aristotelian requirement that the universal must be contained in the singular with the need to save the purity and concreteness of the universale in the act of the intellect.

		He appears to have been the first to detect valves in the orifice of the hepatic veins.
		He was ignorant, however, of the researches of the Italian anatomists; and his description of the brain is inferior to that given sixty years before by Alessandro Achillini.
		The researches of Étienne into the structure of the nervous system are, however, neither useless nor inglorious; and the circumstance of demonstrating a canal through the entire length of the spinal cord, which had neither been suspected by contemporaries nor noticed by successors till J.

	Elfinspell: An Italian Portrait Gallery Part 4, Paolo Giovio, Paulus Giovius, translated by Florence A. Gragg, 16th ...
		Alessandro Achillini of Bologna, the careful translator of Averroes, won a reputation for thorough and sound scholarship when he was professor of philosophy at Padua, though Pomponazzi himself, who was his bitter rival, used all the devices of ambition to rob him of his pupils.
		But nevertheless by the sheer unconquerable force of his learning he surpassed his rival, who caught the crown by the ingenuity of his argument and too often raised a laugh by malicious wit.
		For some time before this Achillini had published books in accordance with the peripatetic philosophy on the Elements, the Intelligence, the Universe, based on the doctrines of Averroes, and on these works all his reputation for genius rested.

		In the oldest manuscript (the one from Oxford) the text bears the title Tractatus Aueroys de perfectione naturali intellectus secundum mentem philosophi which was, probably, invented by the scribe; the other manuscripts are without title.
		This manuscript version has a considerable number of omissions in comparison with the Hebrew texts, some of which have been filled entirely or partially by the first editor Alessandro Achillini (1501) who made use of a copy of the Hebrew version.
		The second Latin edition by Agostino Nifo some years later (1508), included in his commentary on the text, made use of a manuscript he had found at Padova and the edition by Achillini.

		On the wall of the Orvieto Duomo, featuring stories of the Antichrist, the apocalypse-preaching Florentine zealot, Luca Signorelli painted an exquisite portrait of himself (left) [the possible Lecter connection] and his fellow artist, Fra' Angelico, who was renowned not only for his artistic genius, but also for the sweet naivete of his utter Christian devotion.
		This image is the title page of Anatomical Annotations, a 1520 book of anatomy by Alessandro Achillini.
		In Latin, the sentence refers to a person, Hannibal, and "lectori" in this sense means "reader." It is possible that Harris, who seems to know a good deal about the history of medicine, might have been aware of this print which appears in a book on the subject.

		For he lectured on Aristotle and Averroes together in a melodious and clear voice with a delivery precise and smooth when expounding, rapid and impetuous when refuting, and, when closing and summing up, so composed and dignified that his pupils on the benches could by writing fast take down his well ordered periods.
		But in public gatherings and in assemblies of scholars, when they engaged in the very useful practice of argument in the Praetorian Portico, he showed himself so remarkable that, though he was often hard beset by the subtle sophisms of Achillini, he would extricate
