Re: [EXLIBRIS-L] Joanne Anisson--18th Century France



Dear Ms. Carr,

this may be off the mark, because you don't give the context in which Joanne Anisson appears, but the Latin for Jean Anisson could be Joannes Anisson [rather than Johannes], and in formulas such as "printed by" the name would be in the ablative case and appear as Joanne Anisson. If Joanne Anisson is appearing in this kind of Latin context, she may be Jean's alter ego rather than his wife.

Apologies if someone's suggested this already - I get exlibris in digest.

Happy new year,

Alice Browne

Hello all,

Do any of you have suggestions for where I can find information (or if you know anything yourself) about Joanne Anisson, who had some connection to l'Imprimerie Royale in the early 18th Century? I assume that she was related to the director at the time, Jean Anisson, perhaps she was his wife?

Also, can anyone direct me to a resource that would identify the typeface used in a book printed by l'Imprimerie Royale? Does something like this even exist?

  Thanks,
  Katie Carr
