Johannes Henckel (1480/81–1539), the Life and Work of a Cultural Personality of the First Half of the Sixteenth Century (II)
Abstract. Johannes Henckel, a prominent figure of the Spiš region, remains known in the Central European history of books from the sixteenth century thanks to the library he built up while he was in Levoča. He included books of the Saxon community in the area as well as his own books and the two collections merged. The library, set up in a room of St Jacob’s Church, was forgotten for many years; surprisingly, the adoption of the Reformation by the community did not lead the collection being harmed. It came again to the fore in the second half of the eighteenth century when Ignác Batthyány took an interest in it. The majority of books came into the possession of the Bishop of Transylvania; however books that belonged to Henckel are also found in Budapest, Martin and Cluj-Napoca.
