From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

From Lysias we have thirty-four speeches. Three fragmentary ones have come down under the name of Lysias; one hundred and twenty-seven more, now lost, are known from smaller fragments or from titles. In the Augustan age four hundred and twenty-five works bore his name, of which more than two hundred were allowed as genuine by the critics.

The table below shows the name of the speech (in the ordered listed in the Lamb translation), the suggested date of the speech, the primary rhetorical mode (e.g., judicial, deliberative, epideictic), and comments, if any. Notes (e.g., A1, B3, etc., refer to the list of qualifications below the table.

Geoffrey Tory[edit]

Geoffroy Tory research on the proportions of characters was inspired by Vitruvius's Architecture (plate from his typeface, Champ-fleury).

Geoffroy Tory was born in Bourges around 1480 and died in Paris some time before October 14, 1533. He was a French grammarian and engraver who created typefaces specially suited to printed French.

His Life and Work[edit]

Tory was able to study at Bourges owing to the protection of the city's canon. Later, he studied at Rome and then Bologna, returning to Paris in 1505. He became regent (dean) of several colleges at the University of Paris (first Plessy, then Bourgogne in 1512, and finally, Coqueret, where he taught grammar and philosophy). He was working simultaneously as master printer (the shop's proofreader) and engraver for various printers, including Simon de Colines and Henri Estienne (the elder).

Little by little, he was able to obtain various manuscripts of works in French, that he wanted to printed, à une époque où seuls les livres en latin, pensait-on, pouvaient trouver acheteur.

For that purpose, he invented or "adapted" new typographic characters, notably the accented characters, the apostrophe (used with ancient Greek), the "point-crochu" (the French virgule), and the cédille.

Il publia ses principes typographiques dans un ouvrage appelé Champ-fleury (1529), et ses recommandations orthographiques pour le français dans un autre ouvrage, L'Adolescence clémentine et Briesve doctrine pour deuement escripre (1533).

Son zèle pour la langue française entrait dans les vues de François Ier, qui lui accorda le titre d'imprimeur du roi en 1529, et le fit admettre comme libraire de l'université de Paris en 1532. Il eut comme apprenti Claude Garamond, qui prit sa succession comme imprimeur du roi.
