Abstract
The article focuses on an edition of Tabula Cebetis printed in 1517 in Vienna represented by a unique copy (preserved in a Sammelband) that is furnished with a full-page woodcut dated 1515. The inquiry lays emphasis on the design and appearance of the 1517 edition. These are analyzed as reflecting the book’s potential audience, but also as suggesting the former existence of an edition of the Tabula (Vienna, 1515) that is presently not available in a surviving copy. Concurrently, since issuing the dialogue in Vienna was connected to the activities of itinerant poets, scholars, printers and they patrons, who worked towards integrating the humanist curriculum into the local education, this study provides insight into the intellectual networks of those who were involved with the Tabula’s publication and who constituted the contemporary audience in Central Europe both for this and other humanistic texts.
