A translation of HIS De remediis utriusque fortunae. Book 1 translated by Peter Stahel; book 2 by Georgius Spalatinus. The woodcuts epecially commissioned for this edition are by Hans Weiditz.

The illustrations were long attributed to Hans Bugkmair and later to Hans Weiditz; but Th. Musper (Die Holzschnitte des Petrarkmeisters, 1927) has convincingly shown that they cannot be by either. The identity of the artist remains unknown; for a resumé of the voluminous literature on the subject see Thieme-Becker, v. 37 ("Petrarkmeister").

Colophon: Gedruckt vnd volendet in der keyserlichen statt Augspurg, durch Heynrichen Steyner, am ix. tag Februarij, jm jar M.D.XXXII.

Large woodcut illus. on t.-p.

Includes a verse foreword by Sebastian Brant.
