Menaion of January. Μὴν Ἰανουάριος... ἐπιδιορθώσει, Γρηγορίου τοῦ Μαλαξοῦ..., Venice, Ioannes Baptistes Ricainus, 1582.
Fifth edition and the first Menaion by Rikenos, who started printing Greek books from 1580. The first edition of the Menaia came out in January 1533 by Damiano di Santa Maria, printed by Stefano Sabio. 392 editions are known to us until 1800, which means it is the most frequently reprinted book up to the end of the eighteenth century and beyond.
