Geoffrey Tory
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
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.
