BRIDGET, Saint, of Sweden. [Revelations.] Das puch der Himlischen offenbarung der heiligen wittiben Birgitte von dem künigreich Sweden. Nuremberg: Anton Koberger for Florian Waldauf, 1502.
2° (296 x 206mm). Collation: π8 2π.0 A6 B8 C-Z6 a-x6 y8 z6 aa-gg6 hh8. Title with full-page woodcut of Saint Bridget, full-page woodcut of royal arms, another on verso with publisher's arms, 14 pages with woodcut illustrations, 4 full-page, probably by Albrecht Dürer. (Lacking final ?blank, one or two tiny wormholes to margins of last two quires.) Contemporary pigskin panelled in blind, borders with blind stamps of running deer, rosettes and floral ornaments (spine slightly stained, one or two small wormholes, ties lacking). Provenance: Royal Foundation at Halle (armorial bookplate); Royal Library at Munich (stamp on verso of title); J. W. Rimington (signature).
A clean copy of the second edition in German of Saint Bridget's revelations: it was preceded by an edition in Low German published in Lubeck in 1492. The woodcuts for the present edition are traditionally attributed to Dürer, and are the same as those used in Koberger's Latin edition of the work published in 1500: however, Dodgson (in the note to the Latin edition, vol. I, p. 263, no. 12) casts some doubt upon this. The Latin edition also seems to include a final small woodcut of the 'Magister Magnus', not present in the German edition (Dodgson I, p. 266, no. 2). BL STC German p. 153.
