In the tradition of the great classical geographer Strabo Niger provides a description of the principal regions of the earth together with accounts of the habits customs and laws of its various peoples. The first eleven chapters describe the geography of Europe; four chapters deal with Africa and are followed by eleven concerning Asia. This edition also contains the Geographia of Laurentius Corvinus and an epitome of Strabo by Hieronymus Gemuseus first published in 1539. Hakluyt would later produce ten arguments to prove that the Northwest Passage had been successfully sailed: the first century BC writer Cornelius Nepos can't have been wrong he says " And for the better proof that the same authority of Cornelius Nepos is not by me wrested to prove my opinion of the North-West Passage you shall find the same affirmed more plainly in that behalf by the excellent geographer Dominicus Marius Niger who showeth how many ways the Indian sea stretcheth itself making in that place recital of certain Indians that were likewise driven through the north seas from India upon the coasts of Germany by great tempest as they were sailing in trade of merchandise".</p> <p>Adams records only two copies at Cambridge CUL and John's while OCLC identifies about 15 library copies but this is a rare work on the market with no copy appearing at auction in the last fifty years. No copy is held in an Australian library.</p> <p>---</p> <p>Ralegh's interest in Niger's work is noted by Nicholas Popper Walter Ralegh's History of the World and the Historical Culture of the Late Renaissance 2014 who references ". the notes Ralegh took while reading the work of Marius Niger. Very little is known about Niger beyond the fact that he also edited a 1518 edition of Ovid's Amores but after the Petri printing house's 1557 edition of his Geographiae he enjoyed a wide readership in Elizabethan England. Wolfgang Wissenburg the editor of this edition explained in his preface that the manuscript version of the work was "tarnished both by neglect and by worms but it also had been polluted and depraved by a certain corruptor into whose hands it unfortunately had come." Correcting the manuscript had taken significant labor as Wissenburg explained: "if not for repeated intense reading of the ancients I would not have been able to understand the genuine sense and mind of the author and restore his places and meanings. Correcting Niger's commentaries against ancient texts might have been a suspect method for a travel narrative but it ably reconstructed his method of compilation. Niger had constructed the text by synthesizing ancient geographical and historical works into an experiential narrative and his information on Bactria and Sogdiana was cribbed almost entirely from Ptolemy's material with periodic additions from Plutarch Quintus Curtius and others. Thus Wissenburg's technique of correction imitated Niger's method of composition. Ralegh often cited Niger regarding the geography of Asia both in the notebook and in the History and he relied heavily on Niger for Bactria and Sogdiana. Niger's descriptions of these areas appeared both in Ralegh's notes and on the maps themselves.".</p> </p> .

A FOUNDATIONAL TEXT IN HUMANIST EDUCATION AND "ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR AND DISTINGUISHED GUIDES" TO LETTER WRITING WITH MODELS AND DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR SECRETARIES ON HOW NOT TO WRITE A LETTER. <br /> <br /> Burckhardt "Civilization of the Renaissance" emphasizes the importance of epistolography as an achievement of the true humanist: "To maintain a faultless style under all circumstances was a rule of good breeding and a result of habit." The present pamphlet reached Europe-wide fame and was published in 43 editions in the fifteenth century alone.<br /> <br /> Salloch describing the need of humanists for exacting manuals for letter-writing states: "One of the most popular and most distinguished of these guides was Franciscus Niger's published first in 1488 recte: 1487. He gives a review of the different kinds of letters from 'Epistola Commendaticia' to amatoria gratulatoria invectiva jocosa etc. furnishes examples of perfect letters from classical as well as contemporary sources and combines them with concise practical rules.
