Johann Sperling
- ... that Johann Sperling from the University of Wittenberg wrote the first scientific handbook about animals, Zoologia physica (title page pictured)? Source: Heß (ADB) "Das Werk ist für die Studirenden geschrieben und ist das erste Handbuch, welches in compendiöser Weise das Wissenswürdigste aus der Zoologie übersichtlich darzustellen sucht." (The work was written for the students and is the first handbook which tries to demonstrate clearly the most imortant facts from zoology in a compendious way.)

- Can you word that, please, because to my understanding he didn't use zoology, he said Latin zoologia? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:13, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
