Early European Books
By Catherine Sharp, on 27 August 2010
UCL now has access to the first collection of Early European Books.
Early European Books offers full-colour, high-resolution facsimile scanned images of pre-1701 printed European books. The first collection includes all of the Danish Royal Library’s Danish and Icelandic imprints produced in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, from Breviarium Ottoniense (Odense Breviary) and Guillaume Caoursin’s De obsidione et bello Rhodiano (“On the siege and war of Rhodes”), both printed by in 1482, through to works by the astronomer and alchemist Tycho Brahe (1546–1601).
