Note 171 — Chapter IV
Reading edition
It does not seem to be generally known that Lefèvre travelled to Germany in search of manuscripts of some of the earlier mystical writers, and that he published in 1513 the first printed edition of Hildegard of Bingen’s Liber Quoscivias (Peltzer, Deutsche Mystik und deutsche Kunst (Strassburg, 1899), p. 35), under the title Liber trium virorum et trium spiritualium virginum (Paris, 1513).
