Abstract
In a previous article the export of books printed in the Republic to the Southern Netherlands (16th–18th centuries) was estimated based on one library only. This research is being done again in the current article, now based on the book lists of 120 monastery libraries suppressed in 1783. This gives the opportunity not only to see if the previous estimates can be confirmed but also to investigate which type of convent (sex, library size) was more likely to buy books printed in the Republic.
期刊介绍:
Quærendo is a leading peer-reviewed journal in the world of manuscripts and books. It contains a selection of scholarly articles connected with the Low Countries. Particular emphasis is given to codicology and palaeography, printing from around 1500 until present times, humanism, book publishers and libraries, typography, bibliophily and book binding. Since 1971 Quærendo has been establishing itself as a forum for contributions from the Low Countries concerning the history of books. Its appearance in the great libraries of the world as well as on the book shelves of individual professors and scholars, shows it to be an invaluable reference work for their research.
