  Zwinger - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The original plans, as developed by his court architect Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann before 1711, covered the space of the present complex of palace and garden, and also included as gardens the space down to the Elbe River, upon which the Semper opera house and its square were built in the nineteenth century.
The Zwinger was formally inaugurated in 1719, on the occasion of the electoral prince Frederick August’s marriage to the daughter of the Hapsburg emperor, the Archduchess Maria Josepha.
Later the plans were changed to a smaller scale, and in 1847–1855 the area was closed by the construction of the gallery wing now separating the Zwinger from the opera place; the architect was Gottfried Semper, who designed the opera.

 Buxtorf - LoveToKnow 1911
In 1647 the governing body of the university founded, specially for him, a third theological professorship, that of "Commonplaces and Controversies," which Buxtorf held for seven years along with the Hebrew chair.
When, however, the professorship of the Old Testament became vacant in 1654 by the death of Theodor Zwinger, Buxtorf resigned the chair of theology and accepted that of the Old Testament instead.
He was four times married, his three first wives dying shortly after marriage and the fourth predeceasing her husband by seven years.

 [No title]
Not only does Turler say so himself, but Theodor Zwinger, who three years later wrote _Methodus Apodemica_, declares that Turler and Pyrckmair were his only predecessors in this sort of composition.[43] Pyrckmair was apparently one of those governors, or Hofmeister,[44] who accompanied young German noblemen on their tours through Europe.
Theodor Zwinger, who was reputed to be the first to reduce the art of travel into a form and give it the appearance of a science,[47] died a Doctor of Medicine at Basel.
Especially it cannot represent the mode of Zwinger, whose contribution is a treatise of four hundred pages, arranged in outline form, by means of which any single idea is made to wend its tortuous way through folios.

But Aristotle's Problems was widely reprinted in Latin during the sixteenth cen- tury in a translation by Theodore Gaza, the idiosyncracies of which John Monfasani discusses elsewhere in this volume.
To cite one example, I maestri di Ferrara (1991) lists Theodore Gaza as teaching in the years 1441-43 But Monfasani (19946) demonstrates that he taught at Ferrara in the years 1446-49.

Theodor Zwinger delivered Wettstein’s final warning about the city council’s intentions.
They discussed potatoes for some time; Zwinger’s father had been one of the earliest European scientists to provide a thorough description of this new world plant and its medicinal properties, particularly in the prevention of scurvy.
Zwinger had heard that in this “up-time” it had become a staple food, almost as much in use as grains?

I will focus especially on the work of Conrad Gesner and Theodor Zwinger in 16th-century Zurich and Basel respectively.
Compiling was a practice which involved managing large quantities of written material.
I will argue that Gesner and Zwinger did so by using slips of paper, whether manuscript or cut out from other printed sources, which were glued onto sheets to compose their voluminous works.

 Note Taking as an Art of Transmission
A few of Montaigne's examples have been convincingly traced to a printed collection of exempla, Theodor Zwinger's Theatrum humanae vitae, and many of them were available from more than one source to which he would have had access.
But commonplace note taking does not imply a commonplace product; Montaigne has certainly avoided the trite and oft-repeated, both in his choice of examples and in his use of them, precisely as Drexel recommended.
