Note 335 — Chapter I

The Geography was first printed, in a Latin translation, at Vincentia, in 1475; the date 1462 in the Bononia edition being recognized as a misprint, probably for 1482. The history of the book has been described by Lelewel in the appendix to his Histoire de la Géographie, and more fully in Winsor’s Bibliography of Ptolemy’s Geography (Cambridge, Mass., 1884), and in the section on Ptolemy by Wilberforce Eames in Sabin’s Dictionary, also printed separately.
