Lucidarius
The ''Lucidarius'', an anonymous medieval book, was the first German language summa, written circa 1190-1195. It was based on different sources, the chief one being the ''Elucidarium'' and other texts by Honorius Augustodunensis. Other sources include ''De philosophia mundi'' by William of Conches and ''De divinis officiis'' by Rupert of Deutz. It has been preserved in 66 partial or complete manuscripts, and 85 printings in German. It is claimed to be the first original German language work in prose. It was an introduction for laymen to the current religious beliefs and general knowledge, and was divided into three books; within the first book a description of the Creation and of the world in three parts, Asia, Africa and Europe. The second book focused on Christianity and liturgy, with the third and final book centered on the afterlife and the Last Judgment. The text has a prologue in verse, while the body is in prose, in the form of a dialogue between a student and his master. D ...

Martin Schott
Martin Schott (d. 22 November 1499) was a book printer from Strasbourg. One of the earliest printers in Strasbourg, his catalog reflected the tastes of the higher classes in Germany at the time of German humanism. Biography Schott hailed from a high-ranking family. He was the son of Friedrich Schott, a woodcutter and sculptor. His father's interest, and his marriage to a daughter of the printer Johannes Mentelin, may have led him to become a printer. He did not inherit his father in law's business, which went to another son in law of Mentelin's, Adolf Rusch. In contrast to Mentelin's company, Schott used a more modern (but sometimes less attractive) process. His first known printing was a plenarium, in 1481; his last was the version of Cicero's ''Philippicae'' by the early German humanist Jakob Wimpfeling, in 1498. It is sure, however, that he must have been printing works before 1480; given the paucity of the research into Strasbourg's history of printing, these chronological li ...

Summa
Summa and its diminutive summula (plural ''summae'' and ''summulae'', respectively) was a medieval didactics literary genre written in Latin, born during the 12th century, and popularized in 13th century Europe. In its simplest sense, they might be considered texts that 'sum up' knowledge in a field, such as the compendiums of theology, philosophy and canon law. Their function during the Middle Ages was largely as manuals or handbooks of necessary knowledge used by individuals who would not advance their studies any further. Features It was a kind of encyclopedia that developed a matter about Law, Theology or Philosophy most of all. Matters were divided in a more detailed way as it was in the ''tractatus'' (treatise), since they were divided into ''quaestiones'' (questions) and these ones were also divided into ''articles''. The articles had the following structure: #Title of the article as a question and showing two different positions (''disputatio''). #Objections or arguments a ...
