Among them were Demetrius Chalcondylas, Janus Lascaris, Marc Musure, Benedictus Tyrrhenus, and Pietro Alcinio. At the press of Froben at Basel was a similar company, headed during one period by Erasmus who, in many ways, was the most eminent scholar of his day. Here we encounter the names of Sigismundus Gelenius, Marc Heiland, and Henricus Pantaleon. In a letter from Erasmus to Froben occurs this tribute : "The reputation of your printing office is such that a book need only be known to have be...en produced there to make it eagerly sought after by savants. " In the typographic family of Robert Estienne it is said that Latin only was spoken. Numbered among his editors were Lud. Strebaeus, Gerard Leclerc, Adam Nodius, Andre Guntterus, and his favorite who did important work on the editions of the Bible, Guillaume Fabritius. Christopher Plantin, before he established his own printing office at Antwerp, worked as a corrector of the press at Lyons. At Antwerp he retained the services of many eminent scholars as editors and correctors; among them were Fra^ois Hardouin, Victor Geselin, Theodore Pulman, Antoine Gheesdal, Juste Lipse, Cornelis Kiliaan [10] and Franois Raphelenge.
