Polish Books Printed Anonymously in Eary Modern Toruń
View through CrossRef
In 1581, the first publication in Polish was issued in Toruń by the publishing house Melchior Nering. Unlike the majority of Polish book production in other parts of the Kingdom of Poland at that time, Polish books in Toruń were regularly printed from that point onwards, and during the initial phase, they constituted approximately 25% of all books published there. A small proportion of them were published as typographic anonyms, i.e. without mentioning the printer's name in the publication. The article aims to analyse anonymous printing production in Polish in Toruń until 1607 and to present it in the context of Toruń typography at that time.
