The purpose of this article is to analyse the way in which booksellers of the late 18th
century approached the study of incunables. With this in view, the author has taken
a particular interest in an important figure in the Brussels book market, the bookseller-printer Joseph Ermens (1736-1805). Ermens, whose bookselling activities were
his main contribution to the book industry, was very interested in publications of the
15th century. The compilation of sale catalogues, following on the suppression of religious houses in the Austrian Netherlands by emperor Joseph II in 1783, gave him an
opportunity to display his knowledge of the subject, and these catalogues are at the
base of the author’s study of Ermens’ bibliographical working methods. It emerges
that, in broad terms, modern procedures are not very different from those favoured
in the past. The bookseller was happy to depend on catalogues of incunables and
sale catalogues as bibliographical tools, and also made use of the comparison of
print types as a means of attributing a publication without colophon to a particular
printer. To start with, the author summarises the main events of the career of this
bookseller, and the sequence of these sales. |
