Pseudo-Aristotle

The marriage manual that went by the name Secreta Secretorum or Aristotle’s Masterpiece probably outsold the veritable works of Aristotle until at least the later 1800s. It accumulated a number of satellites in the same genre.

Aristotle’s Master-Piece Compleated, in two parts: the first containing the secrets of generation, in all the parts thereof. Treating of the benefit of marriage, and the prejudice of unequal matches, signs of insufficiency in men or women; of the infusion of the soul; of the likeness of children to parents; of monstrous births; the cause and cure of the green-sickness; a discourse of virginity, directions and cautions for midwives. Of the organs of generation in women, and the fabrick of the womb. The use and actions of the genitals, signs of conception, and whether of a male or female. With a word of advice to both sexes, in the act of copulation. And the pictures of several monstrous births, &c. The second part, being A Private Looking-Glass for the Female-Sex. Treating of the various maladies of the womb, and all other distempers incident to women of all ages, with proper remedies for the cure of each. The whole being more correct, than any thing of this kind hitherto published. London: Printed by B. H. and are to be sold by most booksellers. 1702.

Aristotle’s Master Piece, Illustrated edition. New York: Published for the trade, 1846.
