Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an early printed volume that attests to the educational practices of Medieval and Renaissance education. Printed in the 15th century during the early modern period of Europe, the book compiles the dates and events of over 1,000 years of human history. It employs disciplines of history, mathematics, astronomy, and theology to date and arrange significant events in a biblical framework: from the creation of the world according to Genesis to the resurrection of Christ. The book also includes the lives of saints, papal histories, and the exploits of holy Roman Emperors to provide a comprehensive vision of the human experience within a Christian world order. As one of the very earliest printed books, it serves as a touchstone for understanding how medieval Europeans conceived of their own history.
