Somewhat browned and brownstained; several contemporary marginalia. Worming to beginning and end (touching text in final third).

(Straßburg: Drucker des Jordanus von Quedlinburg d. i. Georg Husner), 1484. - Hier separat vorhanden: Blatt 247 beidseitig unter weinrotem Passepartout und Glas gerahmt in Echtholzrahmen. - 39 x 27,5 (Blattgröße ca.: 27 x 17 cm). * Martinus Polonus war einer der bedeutendsten Chronisten des Mittelalters und stammt vermutlich aus Troppau (Opava). Der Dominikanermönch wurde unter Papst Alexander IV. päpstlicher Pönitentiar (Beichtvater), wird von Papst Nikolaus III. 1278 zum Erzbischof von Gnesen ernannt, stirbt jedoch schon im gleichen Jahr in Bologna auf der Rückreise in seine Kirchenprovinz. - Die handschriftlich überlieferten "Sermones de tempore .", eine Sammlung von Musterstücken der Homiletik (Predigtlehre) zählen zu den wichtigsten Werken des Martinus Polonus. - Vgl.
