General note: Translation by Pierre le Venérable, Robertus Retenensis and Hermannus Dalmata, revised by Bibliander. Same material as the Basel edition, 1543. The S.T.C. of the British library gives the address as Zurich, C. Froschauer? According to Göllner, Turcica, I, 792, the Praemonitio, sometimes under Luther's name and sometimes under Melanchton's, is actually by Melanchton. The text of John VI Cantacuzene, Contra mahometicam fidem... assertio, published separately in 1543 can be found here, the end of part 2 without the Greek text. Also contains: ‘Turcicarum rerum commentarius....’ by Paolo Giovio. Note on the indexes, extracts and quotations published separately: Göllner, Turica, I, n. 889 Format 3 parts in 1 volume ([12] ff. - 227 p.; [4] ff. - 358 col., 235 p.) ; fol.
