Latin scholars refer to it as Liber Chronicarum (Book of Chronicles) as this phrase appears in the index introduction of the Latin edition. English-speakers have long referred to it as the Nuremberg Chronicle after the city in which it was first published. German-speakers refer to it as Die Schedelsche Weltchronik (Schedel's World History) in honor of its author. -- in good condition. || This is an original! - No emphasis! - No copy! -- This is an original! - No copy! - No reprint!
