Description

Dialogus creaturarum optime moralizatus (Dialogues on Meteorology and Astronomy). This is part of a collection of 122 latin-language fables illustrated with woodcuts and published in 1480. Those preserved here deal with the earth (rivers, seas, mountains, valleys and precious gems), astronomy (moon, sun and stars) and some weather elements (rainbows, clouds and wind). In 1483 it became the first book ever published in Sweden.
