1583 1ed Pistorius Medieval German Chronicle Sigebertus FOLIOS Saxon Anglo-Saxon

Johann Pistorius was a 16th-century historian who published a number of anti-Protestant works each of which demonstrated his knowledge of his despised theological opponents such as Martin Luther. One of his rather unknown works was his collection of the works of medieval chroniclers including the works of Marianus Scotus, Sigebertus of Gembloux, Lambert of Hersfeld, Roberti de Monte (Torigni), and Hermannus Contractus of Reichenau all of whom were known to chronicle the history of Germany and Germanic tribes.
This enormous two-volume set of vellum-bound folios is a stunning display – truly remarkable!
