The first dissertation, written by Johann Juncker, with Michael Alberti as praeses, was originaly published in Halle, 1718 under the title: Dissertatio inauguralis medica, sistens observationes practicas, De medicina quadam efficaci in motibus naturae exacerbatis; the second dissertation, written by Herman Jacob Burchard, with Abraham Vater as praeses, was originally published in Wittenberg, 1725 under the title: Dissertatio inauguralis medico-practica, qua specificorum antepilepticorum, sigillatim olei animalis
Both dissertations are preceded by reproductions of the original title pages; the reproduction of the Juncker title page, however, is incorrectly dated 1733, rather than 1718 as on the original
