124 The illustrations given are typical, and to one familiar with the works of the period on geographical and astronomical subjects, others suggest themselves.

144 A canon of the cathedral of St. Dié. Lud gives us the information that he was the translator of the Vespucci narrative from the French into the Latin.

145 Gravier, N. F. Histoire de Saint-Dié. Epinal, 1836. p. 202. The author refers to the character of Lud and to the influence of the St. Dié press. Copies of Lud’s most important little tract may be found in the British Museum, and in the Imperial Library of Vienna; it was printed in the St. Dié in the year 1507.

146 The full title of this significant volume reads: ‘Cosmographiae Introductio cum quibusdam geometriae ac astronomiae principiis ad eam rem necessariis, insuper quatuor Americi Vespucci navigationes. Universalis Cosmographie descriptio tam in solido q̄ȝ plano eis etiam insertis que Ptholomeo ignota a nuperis reperta sunt.’ ‘Introduction to Cosmography with certain necessary principles of geometry and astronomy to which are added the Four Voyages of Amerigo Vespucci a representation of the entire world, both in the solid (globe?) and projected on the plane, including also lands which were unknown to Ptolemy, and have been recently discovered.’ Two editions of the work appeared in 1507, and others at later dates. An excellent reproduction of Waldseemüller’s book in facsimile, with English translation, was published by the United States Catholic Historical Society under the title, ‘The Cosmographiae Introductio of Martin Waldseemüller in Facsimile followed by the Four Voyages of Amerigo Vespucci with their Translation into English.’ Ed. by C. G. Herbermann. New York, 1907.

147 This is one of the best of the early printed editions of Ptolemy.

148 May it not have been the Canerio chart to which allusion was made by Lud, or a chart of exactly that type? See Stevenson, E. L. Marine World Chart of Nicolo de Canerio Januensis (ca.) 1502. With Facsimile of the unique original, measuring 115 x 225 cm. New York, 1908.

Text in German and English, the maps in facsimile. The authors in their text have considered such matters as the Wolfegg collective volume, a description of the two maps, the sources of Waldseemüller, and the influence of the maps on the subsequent cartography, especially of the New World.

152 Printed on fol. “Aii.”

153 Printed on the back of folded leaf at the beginning of “Caput IX.”

154 Gallois. Les géographes. p. 48; Fischer and v. Wieser, op. cit., p. 14.

155 The crude character of the map is in striking contrast with the world map of 1507.

156 This is an excellent reproduction of the gores, copy of which was courteously sent the author by Prince Liechtenstein.

157 Printed in the lower corner of the chart on the left, “Generalem igitur totius orbis typum, quem ante annos aucos absolutum non sine grandi labore ex Ptolomei traditione … in lucem edideramus et in mille exemplaria exprimi curavinius. …”

163 De Costa, B. F. The Lenox Globe. (In: Magazine of American History. New York, 1879. pp. 529–540.) De Costa had the globe map redrawn and printed in plane projection. See for reproduction, Winsor, Nordenskiöld, Encyclopaedia Britannica. An excellent reproduction from a direct photograph of the globe may be found in Stevenson, E. L.

178 This statement reads: “Habes candide lector tabellam preinsculptam tibi latitudinem graduum regionium … In globo vero diei quantitatem et noctis … sic comprehendere potes omni de regione tam per globum quam per sexagenarium.” “You have, dear Reader, before you, a small plate on which are inscribed the degrees of latitude of the countries … on the globe (you see) the duration of the day and night … thereby you will be able to ascertain (the position of) every country by the globe as well as by the sexennium.”

Tessier’s discourse was delivered at the Venetian Atheneum, 1875. Jacoli, F., likewise refers to this globe in Gazzetta di Venezia, January 15, 1876. It is not known just what disposition has been made of the globes by Admiral Acton.
