  Scheffer
Schefferus was born in Strasbourg but was summoned in his youth to Uppsala in Sweden and the Skyttian professors' chair in rhetoric and politics.
As Schefferus had never been to Lapland, De la Gardie attended to the matter of making sure that the priests of the northern districts wrote down accounts of the Lapps in their parishes.
Schefferus had access to the collections of De la Gardie and Antikvitetskollegiet, both of which he treated as his private museums for the study of objects from Lapland.

Utgangspunktet for Schefferus’; arbeide var behovet for opplysning om forholdene i nordområdene på grunn av deres økende politiske og økonomiske betydning.
Schefferus står frem som en usedvanlig dyktig redaktør av den informasjon og kunnskap han fikk formidlet til seg slik at verket, til tross for hans manglende førstehånds kjennskap, likevel har stor kildeverdi til kunnskapen om samiske forhold i Nord-Sverige på slutten av 1600-tallet.
Schefferus) og det han selv har sett og hørt blant samene, mener de fleste forskere likevel at hans omfattende og nære kjennskap til samisk miljø gjennom mange års opphold i Finnmark gir hans beskrivelser både tyngde og troverdighet, tross åpenbare mangler og sin uvilje mot den tradisjonelle samiske religionspraksis.

Språkforskaren Johannes Schefferus var född i Strassburg, men kallades i unga år till Sverige och den skytteanska professuren i retorik och politik i Uppsala.
Eftersom Schefferus själv aldrig varit i Lappland, ombesörjde De la Gardie att kyrkoherdarna i de nordliga orterna skrev ned redogörelser om samerna i respektive område.
Dessa fakta vidarebefordrades sedan till Schefferus och två år senare låg manuskriptet klart för tryckning.

Detta lilla hus som ligger dolt bakom en mur vid S:t Eiks torgs västra sida (Vattugränd) uppfördes på 1670-talet åt Johannes Schefferus som bibliotek och museum.
Med en stor familj och flera studenter inackorderade i sitt hem behövde han säkert byggnaden för att kunna arbeta i lugn och ro.
Vad som talar emot att Rudbeck skulle vara upphovsman till biblioteket är att han eller rättare sagt hans gode vän Verelius och Schefferus var i luven på varandra.

 Christina of Sweden, the Porta Magica and the Italian poets of the Golden and Rosy Cross
The Rosicrucian elements that were to surface in Italy, however, appear to have grown out of a purely alchemical interest where the transmutational operations promised a future restoration of the "golden age" and was best expressed in poetry.
Prior to that that, however, Christina had been approached by the alchemist Johannes Franck, who described her future reign as the fulfillment of Paracelsus’ prophecy of a return of Helias Artista and of Sendivogius’ vision of the the rise of a metallic monarchy of the North.
At about this time she induced the Greek specialist Johannes Schefferus to write a history of the Pythagoreans, which was published in Sweden a decade later as De natura et constitutione philosophiae Italicae seu pythagoricae (Upsala, 1664).

Lapland and the Lapps in particular began to attract attention in the 1670s, when Professor Johannes Schefferus of Uppsala University compiled a book called Lapponia.
In spite of wrong and inaccurate knowledge it was a source book of long standing for science and all travellers bound for Lapland.
In the introduction Schefferus wrote: “a lot of new information about the origin of Lapps, their superstitions, rituals, food, ways of living and the animals and metals in their land; all carefully illustrated.”

All’incirca nello stesso periodo, ella induceva il grecista Johannes Schefferus a scrivere una storia dei Pitagorici che vedrà la stampa un decennio più tardi con il titolo di De natura et constitutione Philosophiae Italicae seu Pytagorichae (Upsala 1664).
