A 1688 Latin biographical dictionary by Paul Freher, published in Nuremberg, collecting lives of scholars, theologians, physicians and philosophers from across Germany and wider Europe for learned readers. Its pages are grids of small engraved oval-framed portraits of scholars, each with a Latin name caption beneath, in dense, orderly plates of sixteenth and seventeenth century men in ruffs, skullcaps, and hats.
