Aldus Manutius: Scholar and teacher, printer and publisherUnknown Date (has links)
"Preliminary research showed that studies within the past twenty-five years in English on Aldus Manutius are almost wholly confined to articles published in scholarly or professional journals. Little but basic facts can be found in books concerned with the history of printing for their scope is too broad. A book by Theodore Low DeVinne, Aldus Pius Manutius, is acknowledged as an essay. Older works are not easily accessible. That by Goldsmid, privately printed in Edinburgh in 1887, is, as its title indicates, A Bibliographical Sketch of the Aldine Press Forming a Catalogue of All Works Issued by Aldus and His Successors, From 1494 to 1597 ..., and does not fully satisfy one's curiosity. Horatio R. E. Brown's study, The Venetian Printing Press, was published in 1891. The most frequently mentioned biographies are works in French printed in the last century. Detailed information on the printing types which contain little if any biographical information. To bring together the widely scattered information became the purpose of this paper"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "May, 1955." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Agnes Gregory, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 87-91).
