Notes

  • Textual: After a prologue and overview of used sources (1ra-b), the chronicle starts with an account of Roman history (2rb-10rb/24). The history of popes starts at f. 10rb/25 (inc. "Anno LXII octaviani augusti natus est jhesus christus ...") and continues on the versos starting from 10v onwards. The history of emperors starts at f. 11r (inc. "Post nativitatem domini nostri jhesu christ octavianus augustus imperavit annis XIIII ...") and continues on the rectos. Every page has a catchword in the lower margin to guide the reading from one verso (or recto) to the next. Martin of Troppau designed this lay out to present the history of ecclesiastical and worldly rulers simultaneously.
  • Also described by MMDC.
