Sources

Dedicated to materials of various formats and nature, this part of the website was meant to immerse yourself into the work environment of a 16th century printer.

You shall find here primary ressources with documents of archives or correspondances, but also secondary sources published from primary sources by curators and historians. All of this information to understand the process of edition of the Tridentine missal, the exchanges between Christophe Plantin and his counterparts.

Finally, you shall be able to discover photographs and digitised pages from different copies of Tridentine misssal printed by Plantin. The project brought me at some point to make a comparative study with another piece of work.

Good tour!
