Tyrnaviae, 1702. Typis Academicis. 1 folding pl(s).+(4)+108p.
A fascinating section with an astronomical theme was attached in front of the thematically grouped chronological tables.
Three depictions show the structure of the universe based on the systems of Copernicus, Ptolemy and Tycho de Brache. According to the poem accompanying the picture, the author does not take a stand for either, the point is that God is behind the world's phenomena. The Lord/Creator is shown by the image of the young man in baroque clothes playing with the world with a tennis racket-like object.
Slightly stained, contemporary vellum.
RMK II 2138.
