Résumé : There are 122 known incunabula editions of the Manipulus curatorum, 21 of them published in German lands between 1474 and 1500. These can be grouped into two groups, single isolated editions in Southern Germany and other, more numerous published by printers working in Basle (2 ?), Koln (8) and Strasburg (7). This study is based on the known located editions. Their number varies from less than 35 to 80. Provenances found in numerous copies give us a measure of the success met by the handbook in the clergy, from humble curates to most eminent Doctors. Copies of the Manipulus are often found bound with other texts, thus forming a mini-library where a celebrant, or confessor or a preacher could find works necessary to the exercise of his ministry.
