For example, the ''editio princeps'' of Homer is that of Demetrius Chalcondyles , now thought to be from 1488. The most important texts of classical Greek and Roman authors were for the most part produced in ''editio princeps'' in the years on either side of 1500. The picture is complicated by the possibilities of partial publication, of publication first in translation (for example from Greek to Latin), and of a usage that simply equates with First Edition . The term has long been extended by scholars to works not part of the Ancient Greek and Latin literatures. It is also used for legal works, and other significant documents. PARTIAL LIST
