Live and act

Johannes Heberling, who comes from a noble family in Gmünd, was enrolled at the University of Basel in 1475 , where he became a baccalaureus in 1477 and a master's degree in " via moderna " in 1479 . He was dean of the modernists within the artist faculty in 1488 and 1491 and is attested in 1491 as Regens der Burse in the college building. Several times he personally entered Latin poems in the university registers . Five letters from Heberling to Johann Amerbach in Basel from 1492 to 1511 have been preserved. His pupil Wilhelm Kopp says in a letter to Johannes Reuchlin on August 25, 1514 that Reuchlin taught Heberling in Basel at the time.

Soon after 1491 Heberling went to Dole, because on October 1, 1492 he signed his treatise on the plague ( De epidimiae morbo ), which was first printed in Lyon around 1500 , as "artium et medicine doctor, universitatis Dolane phisicus ordinarius" ( Doctor of Arts and Medicine, Ordinary Doctor of Dole University). Not only was he a university doctor, he also taught at the university. In 1512 he received a grant from the local parliament, among other things for the translation of documents from German - the last known life testimony.

Johannes Heberling had several children. The Rue Jean Heberling in Dole commemorates him .
