Encadernação recente com lombada em pergaminho e pastas em papel decorativo. Exemplar com leves picos de traça marginais de resto limpo e sólido. Ilustrado com belas capitulares decorativas, algumas delas atribuídas a Holbein. Na folha de rosto apresenta frontispício em portada monograma armoriado do patrocinador Lucas Alantse e a marca do impressor Singrenius no colofon. Obra impressa em Viena de Áustria por Joannes Singrenius para Lucas Atlanse em 1520, com uma importância histórica incontornável: trata-se da obra onde se encontra pela primeira vez um mapa [ausente neste exemplar] com o nome AMERICA. Trata-se de um mapa impresso à parte, porém publicado para ser expressamente incluído neste tratado de história natural, baseado na obra de Caio Júlio Solino (cerca 250 d. c.) o qual, por sua vez, tinha coligido os escritos clássicos de Ptolomeu. O mapa (ausente neste exemplar) baseou-se no mapa de 1507 de Martin Waldseemüller cujo único exemplar conhecido é o da Biblioteca do Congresso. Waldseemüller apoiou a ideia de Américo Vespucio tratando separadamente o novo continente. THE FIRST PRINTED MAP TO BEAR THE NAME AMERICA Vienna: Johannes Singrenius for Lucas Alantse, 1520 [not presently available with this book]. Joannes Camers's edition of the Polyhistor, an ancient treatise on natural history by Caius Julius Solinus (flourished ca. 250 AD). After Ptolemy, Solinus was the classical authority whose writings most strongly informed Renaissance geographical thought. Camers's version of the Polyhistor is quite desirable to collectors, for it contains the earliest obtainable map to name America. The only surviving example of the map of Martin Waldseemüller's 1507 is in the Library of Congress. Waldseemüller's map supported Amerigo Vespucci's revolutionary concept that the New World was a separate continent, previously unknown to the Europeans, and his was the first map to show a separate Western Hemisphere with the Pacific as a separate ocean. Although Waldseemüller himself had realized, after 1507, that Vespucci was not the discoverer of the New World, Apian's duplication of his predecessor's nomenclature etched the name America into popular consciousness.
