The Ducal Printery in Szczecin and Its Publications
Journal Title: Bibliotheca Nostra. Śląski Kwartalnik Naukowy - Year 2016, Vol 46, Issue 4
Abstract
In the beginning of the 17th century, due to Bogislaw XII (1544-1606) moving to Stettin, the Ducal Printery in Barth was closed. The contents of the workshop were moved to a residence of Stettinian dukes called Oderburg. According to a number of German and Polish researchers, Pomeranian dukes entrusted the printing offi ce to typographers, who signed prints with their own names. First of them was Johann Duber (died 1623) and after his death the printing house was ran by (until 1631) Nikolaus Barthold (died after 1633), his stepson. The article aims to present Duber-Barthold’s workshop’s publishing repertoire, which consisted, among others, of poetry, school dissertations, scientifi c, religious and occasional works. In 1632 the printing equipment from Barthold’s printing house was transfered to the newly opened university in Dorpat, fi nally ending the activities of the workshop founded by dukes from the House of Griffi ns. This coincided with the waning of the Pomeranian state itself, the end of which was marked by the death of the last Griffi n, Bogislaw XIV (1580-1637).
