Abstract

The bibliothéque municipale de Boulogne-sur-Mer (France) owns a copy of Vesalius' De humani corporis fabrica, published in Basel in 1543, which might have belonged to Vesalius ; it also has many handwritten notes that can be attributed to Ioan. Valterius Viringus or Jan Wauters (or Wouters) van Vieringen, who was the author of the first translation in Dutch of Vesalius' Epitome (1569).
