Summary
Sixtus Tucher (1459-1507), the privileged son of a patrician family, decided to become a clergyman. To what extent was this his own decision, and what part of it was dictated by others? Where did he have an impact, and where did his environment have an impact on him? Antonia Landois presents her approach to the spheres of influence of this multifaceted Nuremberg humanist and analyzes what can be inferred from this for the humanism movement in an urban context.
