Schorsch on the front pastedown. First edition of Christoph Weigel's world history written "in a nutshell," elaborately illustrated by him and intended for a young audience. Christoph Weigel (the Elder) was an art dealer, publisher, and engraver of Nuremberg, perhaps best known for his work on the 1715-1716 "Grand Atlas of the World" of Johann Homann. In the early 1720s, Weigel wrote and illustrated this lean compendium, a "universal-chronological history of the world," in Latin and German. A tall, thin production, it compressed the entire human story into 16 pages of printed text ("Vorberricht"). Weigel illustrated his history, alternatively titled the Orbis terrarum in nuce, in over 400 copperplate vignettes depicting important historic events from creation to his own contemporary time. The illustrations include several classic portraits of kings and emperors of Europe, all classed into centuries. Weigel intended this work for the education of children; this book was emblazoned with emblematic studies and devoted to particular points in the historical continuum.
