Liber chronicarum. Nuremberg: Anton Koberger, for Sebald Schreyer and Sebastian Kammermeister, 12 July 1493.
First edition, from the library of Imperial poet laureate Michael Abel. Humanist, poet and teacher, Abel had studied at Frankfurt-an-der-Oder with Neolatin poet Georg Sabinus, eventually rising to be crowned poet laureate by Rudolph II at Vienna (an honour commemorated in the inscription as p[oetae] L[aureati] Cor[onati]) and serving as court poet there. As the binding of his book with its Lutheran decoration makes clear, Abel was a strong Lutheran; he once fled an early post as tutor owing to a quarrel with a local Catholic priest. The Nuremberg Chronicle is the most extensively illustrated book of the 15th century, with over 1800 woodcuts. An elaborate manuscript exemplar, created to integrate text and illustration, survives, as do the contracts between Koberger and the artists responsible for the illustrations. Albrecht Dürer, godson of Koberger, was an apprentice to Wolgemut from 1486 to 1489 and was almost certainly involved in the production of the woodcuts. On Abel, see John Flood, Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire, a Bio-bibliographical Handbook, 2006, I, pp 11-13 and Supplement, I, p.3. HC *14508; BMC II, 437; CIBN S-161; BSB-Ink. S-195; Bod-inc. S-108; Schreiber 5203; Goff S-307; ISTC is00307000.
