1632. The Janssonius Piracy
View through CrossRef
Abstract
This chapter studies the publication history of the 1632 edition of IBP printed by Johannes Janssonius. It explores how the rivalry between Blaeu and Janssonius shaped the format and the publication strategies behind this edition. It goes on to offer a range of bibliographical insights regarding Janssonius’ decision to bind copies of this edition with exemplars of Mare liberum. Our account of the printing history of Janssonius’ edition and its two variant issues confirms, and extends with new details and information, some claims made by earlier scholars regarding the sequence of these publications. The interrelation between the issues, and their relationship to Blaeu’s publications, have marked the material and reception history of the volumes themselves.
