Only one known in Sweden (LUB). First edition in Dutch. Nice example from the second press of Johann Veldener. He started in Louvain (around 1474) where he set up his and also the city's first printing house. After only a few years in Louvain he continued to Kuilenburg, from where only a few printed works are known, to finally return to Louvain where he set up his fourth and last press. No known works after 1487. Werner Rolevinck (1425-1502), munk och historiker. 1447 inträdde han i Kartusianer-klostret i Santa Barbara i Köln där tillbringade resten av sitt liv. Hans mest kända verk var hans världshistoria från skapelsen till påven Sixtus IV, som publicerades i flera upplagor mellan 1474 och 1726, varav nästan 40 utgåvor under hans livstid. Rolewinck's Fasciculus Temporum was an enormously popular world chronicle, appearing in more than 30 incunabular editions in Latin, German, French, and Dutch. This work aspires to trace the history of the world from the beginning of time until the year of publication. A very handsome and typographically-sophisticated volume, with varying columns, circular devices with inset type, and woodcuts throughout, the work is fascinating for the comprehensiveness of its content as well as the beauty of its execution.
