Questions surrounding the second edition of Hus’ Postil from 1564
Pišna, Jan
The article focuses on a typographic description of the anonymous print of John Hus’ Postil from 1564. In view of the fact that the typographic material provided by the Nürnberg printing house of Johann von Berg (Montaus) and Ulrich Neuber, where Hus’ Postil was printed in 1563, has so far escaped scholarly attention and the fact that no similar scholarly description of the majority of the printers active in the second half of the 16th century has yet been available, it cannot be stated with certainty where this anonymously printed edition originated. The edition has not been explored only from the point of view of its typography, used script, initials, decoration and illustrations but the author also tackles the following questions: why was the edition printed anonymously and why does the editorial concept differ from the Nürnberg edition from 1563.
