Officia M.T.C. : ein Bůch, so Marcus Tullius Cicero der Römer, zů seynem Sune Marco, von den tugentsamen Ämptern vnd Zůgehörungen, eynes wol vnd rechtlebenden Menschen
A 1531 Augsburg printing of Cicero's Latin moral treatise On Duties, rendered in German by Johann Neuber and Johann von Schwarzenberg and printed by Heinrich Steyner for a general reading public interested in ethics. Its woodcut pages show the book's moral lessons as allegorical scenes, including a pair of figures labelled Erbarkeit and Nutz standing on chests and a dispute staged in a columned hall, with dense black-letter text framing each block, useful for designers seeking early German printed ornament, emblematic figures and compartmentalised page layouts.
