In hoc volvmine haec continentur is a 1516 Aldine printing of four Roman historical texts. Collected and edited by Giovanni Battista Egnazio, this two-volume set contains the following works: XII Cæsares by Suetonius, excerpts of Sextus Aurelius Victor, De gestis Romanorum by Eutropius, and the continuation by Paul the Deacon.

Aldine published works are easily the most desirable printings from the 16th-century and this work is no exception. The inclusion of Suetonius’s Twelve Caesars which is still considered one of the primary sources on Roman history and discusses important facets of the end of the Roman Republic. Twelve Caesars covers the lives of Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellus, Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian, and is the first work to offer insights to some of the lesser-known aspects of these important Roman figures, such as Julius Caesar’s struggle with epilepsy .
