Incunabulum - EUSEBUS OF CAESAREA. Chronicon. Venice, Erhard Ratdolt, 1483. In-4 gothic [170] ff. coll. a-v8 x10 (first and last leaves blank), printed in black and red, in gothic and roman type, qqs woodcut initials. Without the 12 introductory table/index leaves (of which the first is blank). Several small wormholes. Marginal light spotting. Rufous stain in head margin of qs ff. Later ivory vellum, title handwritten in brown ink on spine. Second incunabula edition (after the 1475 Milan princeps edition) of the Chronicles of Eusebius of Caesarea (c. 265-339), bishop of Caesarea in Palestine, the father of ecclesiastical history, edited by J. L. Santritter, preserved only in Jerome's translation. It contains continuations by Prosper Aquitanus (to 448), Matthaeus Palmerius Florentinus (to 1448) and here, for the first time, by Matthias Palmerius Pisanus (to 1481), who mentions (on verso of leaf 155, date 1457) Gutenberg and the invention of printing (which he dates back to 1440). A German printer established in Venice before returning to Germany in 1486, Erhard Ratdolt was one of the first to use several colors together in printing, including the Kalendarium magistri (by Johannes Muller, known as Regiomontanus) printed in Venice in 1476, then reprinted in Augsburg in 1499, and these Chronicles by Eusebius of Caesarea, demonstrating his early mastery of alternating black and red. Eusebius of Caesarea's Chronicle or Universal History (from Abraham to Constantine I in 325) is divided into two volumes: Book 1 contains extracts from earlier writers; Book 2 consists of a tabulated list of dates and events. While the original text in koinè ("common" Greek) is lost, the text of Book 2 (the Canons) has been entirely handed down in the Latin translation (expanded to 379) of St. Jerome, before the much later discovery in 1782 of an Armenian translation of both parts (albeit incomplete). Eusebius' Κανών constitutes the greatest chronological work of all antiquity, and marks the birth of a new historical genre: the chronicle, which places the compilation of dates and events in a tradition of continuing the work of earlier chroniclers. As such, it has long been an essential foundation and source for our knowledge of ancient history.
