Vindiciae contra tyrannos, siue, De principis in populum, populique in principem, legitima potestate
Vindiciae contra tyrannos is a 1608 political treatise printed in Frankfurt by Lazarus Zetzner, attributed to Hubert Languet and Philippe de Mornay and edited with Johann Fickler's De jure magistratuum, aimed at scholars and rulers debating the limits of royal power. The single picture is a woodcut title border of a helmeted, armoured female figure in profile, with the label SCIENTIA IMMUTABILIS on a tablet and a walled town behind her, set in a strapwork frame a designer could borrow for emblematic or allegorical ornament.
