Short Title List
of Plantinian and Officina Publications and Impressions

In this Short Title List only those titles are given that are referred to in the text in some detail. Entries are basically in the same form as they are found in text and footnotes, particularly as far as dates are concerned. Consequently the List is divided into three sections, viz.:

(1) Publications and impressions of Christophe Plantin mentioned in the text with their dates. These are given by year (1555-89) and within each year in alphabetical order.

(2) Plantin publications and impressions mentioned in the text without dates, in alphabetical order.

(3) Publications and impressions of the Officina Plantiniana and some of the Leiden Raphelengius family, issued after Christophe Plantin's death (1589):

Numbers refer to pages; page numbers with an asterisk refer to. a footnote on that page. A number preceded by pl. refers to a plate or its caption.
