Book description

This work titled Schedels’ Printing Shop: In the World of the Printed Book of the 17th and the Beginning of the 18th Century addresses an issue of editorial and business activity of this particular printing shop, as well as the published books conceived as an artifact and medium of content and relevance of the printed books for select groups of the Old Polish society. The book is divided into ten main chapters. After describing the current research status, biographical facts concerning the Schedels are delivered, among others against a background of correspondence with Balthasar II Moretus and other sources, both manuscripts and printed, from the epoche. The Schedels’ published repertoire is characterised in terms of genre status, linguistic diversity, and target audiences for which it was prepared.
