I remain indebted to all of the editors of the original publications for encourage- ment and diligent correction, dispensed with unfailing generosity. I also look back in gratitude on decades in which I could count on the professional and personal support of colleagues in many libraries. Without such help it would not have been possible to assemble the materials on which these studies are based. May the great tradition in libraries of unquestioning support of schol- arly enterprises endure and prosper in the digital era. In terms of expressing my gratitude to individuals, I must confine myself to those who gave me information and help in recent years when I reworked the essays, where their contributions are acknowledged. In order of appear- ance they are: ‘List of printer’s copy’: Ueli Dill (Basel), Neil Harris (Udine), Max Plassmann (Cologne), and Matthias Thumser, (Berlin); ‘Proofreading in Mainz in 1459’: Mayumi Ikeda (Tokyo), Bettina Wagner (Munich), and Mar- tin Davies (London), and also practical help from Claudia Fabian (Munich); ‘Poggio’s Facetiae’: John Hodgson (Manchester) and Tony Kitzinger (London), who produced the final version of the stemma; ‘Poggio’s Historia fiorentina’: Alessandro Daneloni (Verona), Neil Harris (Udine), and Stephen Parkin (Lon- don); ‘Two editors, three printers’: Martin Davies (London); ‘From Poggio to Caxton’: Felix de Marez Oyens (Paris), Carol Meale (Bristol), Derek Pearsall (York), and Jean-Baptiste and Laure de Proyart (Paris); I am also grateful to the publishers of the original version, Boydell & Brewer, Ltd, for permission to re-publish this study. ‘The History of Jason’: Evert van den Berg (Zwolle), Bart Besamusca (Utrecht, who after reading the whole text gave very helpful sugges- tions), Ivan Boserup (Copenhagen), and Ann Payne (London); ‘William Caxton and the Malory Manuscript’: Christina Duffy (London). I am particularly grateful to Falk Eisermann (Berlin, Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke), who with a sharp eye and great patience read the entire text with unflagging attention. Among his many suggestions, he pointed to Ger- acknowledgements ix man literature which had eluded me. His marginal exclamation marks were a much appreciated encouragement in a project that—as these projects go— took longer than intended. Equally persistent and encouraging was the interest of Karina de la Garza Gil (Cologne), who as an introduction to the subject also read the entire text, and in return gave much help in the final presentation. John Goldfinch in the British Library gave constant support with indispens- able practicalities, and he arranged the return of the Malory manuscript for a session at the British Library’s Conservation workshop. Last but not least, I am once again deeply grateful to Tony Kitzinger, as he added to the new Brill font the set of special characters peculiar to fifteenth-century printers which he had designed for previous publications. Without them the many transcriptions in this book could not have been typed, typeset, or read. To Edizioni Il Polifilo, Milan, and to the following libraries I am grateful for permission to reproduce from materials in their collections: Beinecke Library, YaleUniversity; Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana, Venice; British Library,London, Cambridge University Library; Houghton Library, Harvard University; Hunte- rian Collection, Glasgow University Library; Library of Congress, Rosenwald Collection, Washington dc.

Plusieurs des sermons de Saint-Augustin comptent parmi les plus belles exégèses que possède l’Eglise. Saint Augustin est des Pères de l’Eglise celui autour duquel le monde chrétien a le plus âprement disputé : catholiques et protestants, jansénistes et jésuites se sont également abrités derrière son autorité pour faire triompher leurs doctrines. L’humanité est aux yeux de saint Augustin si radicalement enfoncée dans le péché que sa nature lui interdit toute aspiration vers le bien. Le salut ne peut donc être que l'œuvre de Dieu seul. (Michèle Federico Sciacca). Ulrich Zell apprend la technique de la typographie à Mayence dans l’atelier de Peter Schoeffer et Johann Fust, et doit sans doute quitter la ville comme beaucoup d’autres imprimeurs, après le sac de la ville, dans la nuit du 28 octobre 1462, par les troupes de l’archevêque Adolphe de Nassau.

Gibbons S1433725 Book and Digital Media Studies MA Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Erik Kwakkel Second Reader: Prof. Paul Hoftijzer Date of completion: 28 July, 2014 Word Count: 19.896 1 Table of Contents Chapter 1: Introduction 3 Chapter 2: Typographic Exchange within Cities 15 Chapter 3: Intra-regional Typographic Exchange 25 Chapter 4: Trans-European Typographic Exchange 36 Chapter 5: Conclusions and Looking Forward 46 Works Cited 52 2 Chapter 1: Introduction From its birth in Mainz in the 1450s, printing and the printers who implemented it spread rapidly through Europe, reaching Italy by 1465, Paris in 1470, the Low Countries by the early 1470s1, Poland by 1473, and by way of Flanders England in 14762. Printing was immediately a highly desirable technology, able to meet the fifteenth century’s growing demand for books of all kinds3 by mass-producing the codex form and all that could be included between its two covers. There already existed international markets in Europe for other goods that were traded abroad by merchants, but print functioned differently as a commodity. Whereas wool could be brought to the nearest port for export overseas and simply sold there, handed off to the merchant who would then travel to the next port and sell the product there, a printing press or a fount of type were not simply exchanged for a sum of a money in fifteenth-century Europe4. Printing entailed a crucial difference: its novelty required a very specific and very rare expertise, which meant that those who exported print from its home in Germany very often went with it to its new home in a new culture.
