‎First Danish edition (it was first published in German the previous year) of the first official description of the coronation of King Christian IV. August Erich himself attended the coronation festivities, so it contains firsthand descriptions of the ceremony, the processions with decorations and costumes, fireworks, musical instruments, jousting, etc. The first official coronation description, published in 1597, was written in German by the king's secretary in the German Chancellery, August Erich, who identified himself as an eyewitness to the events. This description was primarily aimed at the northern German regions where Christian IV had or sought influence, and it can be seen as a follow-up to the previous tour of northern German towns that the un-crowned Christian undertook in 1595. Erich's coronation description was translated into Danish in 1598 (The present work) by court chaplain Andreas Benedict Dallin, who added more detailed information. Dallin's coronation description was clearly intended for a Danish audience, with the aim of strengthening and justifying Christian IV's domestic position in relation to the nobility as well as the citizens and common people.
