Resum

The library of Hartmann Schedel (1440-1514), the celebrated medical doctor and humanist of Nuremberg, author of the Liber Chronicarum (1493), offers a wealth of information on a number of fields, from book history through the reception of Italian humanism north of the Alps, to the history of medicine. Carefully annotated, decorated and catalogued, the volumes testify to his education, intellectual development and professional interests. This article explores two manuscripts in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek in Munich, clm 490 and clm 716. The first volume contains, among other medical texts, part of the extremely popular Pseudo-Galenic treatise De spermate, whereas the second one transmits part of a fifteenth-century humanist bestseller, the description of the ruins of Rome from the first book of Poggio Bracciolini's De varietate fortunae. Hartmann's copies are placed in their respective textual traditions and contextualized from the cultural point of view.
