NOTE ON EDITIONS AND FOLIO NUMBERS

References to the Peregrinatio in terram sanctam are cited in the notes or in parentheses in the body of the text. The folio and line numbers refer to the June 21, 1486, German edition, unless the text makes explicit reference to the Latin edition, published on February 11, 1486. Neither edition has printed signatures. The foldout woodcuts were assembled by gluing extra sheets onto the outside edge of one folio of an opening. Each sheet of these extensions is counted as two folios. Blank lines are not counted in the line numbering. Latin abbreviations have been expanded.

Incunabula are cited using the conventions of the Incunabula Short Title Catalogue (ISTC), which has an English-language interface but often uses the Latin name for authors. Each ISTC entry links to the database of the German Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke (GW), which often contains more and different information. Both the ISTC and GW entries link directly to library websites that make incunabula available online in digital format. The Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Darmstadt offers the Latin edition with the most easily navigable interface, and both it and the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek in Munich facilitate the download of entire volumes in PDF format. In addition, Isolde Mozer has published a modern edition of the text of the June 21, 1486 German Peregrinatio with folio numbers. In light of the availability of the Peregrinatio text and with limited printed space, full quotations from the original text of the Peregrinatio and other recently published or digitized works have been limited.

The online editions do not include all of the Peregrinatio’s foldouts, but they can be viewed together on the website of the Beinecke Library at Yale University in their digital collections. They were printed in facsimile in Elisabeth Geck’s 1977 edition with abridged text in modern German.
