Autores Resumo
Imprint from colophon. Compiled to accompany Schöner's globe which he made in 1515. "De America qvarta orbis par te cum aliis nouis insulis appositis" (leaves 60-62), relate to America. "The author follows out the suggestion made by Waldseemüller, in 1507, and calls this fourth part of the world America or Amerigen. This book of Schöner's is probably the second, after the various editions of the 'Cosmographiae Introductio,' to contain the word America; the first being the 'Globus Mundi' of 1509."--Church, E.D.
