Title A name given to the resource Utopia Description An account of the resource William Morris (1834-1896), product of an upper-middle class upbringing of the 19th century, was actually a socialist with a great reverence for the skilled craftsman whose output was a product of labour done by hand, rather than that of mass-produced mechanization. Disgruntled with the uniform and shoddy artistic production of the Age of Industrialization of the London of his time, Morris looked back to the artists of the past for inspiration. A true Renaissance man if ever there was one, Morris was involved in almost every branch of the Arts : textiles, metal work, furniture making, architecture, stained glass, decorative arts, painting, literature, and indeed, book production. As with his other endeavours within the Arts, Morris turned to the pre-mechanized age for inspiration with book printing: the era of the hand-press. Morris founded the Kelmscott Press in 1891. All aspects of Kelmscott Press books were produced by hand : the paper, the binding, the pressing of an edition, and the fonts. Morris designed the fonts used at his Press himself, with Chaucer (designed for his magnum opus “The Kelmscott Chaucer”, Golden (designed for his printing of Voraigne’s Golden Legend) and Troy being his most famous.

Title A name given to the resource Diui Thomae Aquinatis, ordinis praedicatorum, viri & vitae sanctimonia, de sacraum literarum peritia praeclari In omnes beati Pauli apostoli epistolas commentaria [...] Description An account of the resource This item shows the printer’s device of Jean Petit (14.. - 1533). Petit was a very prolific printer, and was said to have printed one-tenth of all books printed in Paris from approximately 1493-1530, that is, about 1000 titles. Petit also collaborated with a number of other printers, where they might print their works at his studio or he at theirs. Noted collaborations were with Josse Bade (1461-1535) (or Badius) and Thelmann Kerver (14...-1522). Petit’s device varies over time, but it is usually depicted as a shield containing his initials held up by two heraldic animals: usually lions, as is the case here; Archives and Special Collections has an example where the device is held up by two monkeys.

Title A name given to the resource Dictionaire francoislatin, contenant les motz & manieres de parler francois, tournez en latin Description An account of the resource Robert Estienne (1503-1559) was the second son of printer Henri Estienne. After his father’s death in 1520, he collaborated with his older brother François and Simon de Colines (whose printer’s device we see in another item on display in this cabinet). Estienne was renowned for being one of the most erudite of his century, notably being named royal printer for Hebrew and Latin. Robert’s device is that of a serpent wrapped around an olive tree, alluding, most likely, to the tree of knowledge. However, there is a more personal meaning hidden within the device, perhaps something of an “in joke”, the Estienne printing shop was on Rue St-Jean-de-Beauvois in Paris, “at the sign of the Olive”. The motto contained within the device reads “Noli altum sapere, sed time” (“Be not high-minded, but fear”), a quote which stems from St. Paul’s Epistle to the Romans.
