Jean-Franois Gilmont

Peter G. Bietenholz
Born in 1933, he received his PhD from the University of Basle in 1958, and became professor of history at the University of Saskatchewan (Canada) in 1963, where he received a D.Litt. He specializes in the history of the Renaissance and Reformation and his works include Der italienische Humanismus und die Blterzeit des Buchdrucks in Basle (Basle, 1959), Pietro Della Valle, 15861642 (Basle, 1962), History and Biography in the Work of Erasmus of Rotterdam (Geneva, 1966), Basle and France in the Sixteenth Century (Geneva, 1971) and Historia and Fabula. Myths and Legends in Historical Thought from Antiquity to the Modern Age (Leiden, 1994). He edited Mino Celsis In haereticis corcendis quatenus progedi liceat (Naples, Chicago, 1982), Contemporaries of Erasmus: A biographical register of the Renaissance and Reformation (Toronto, 198587) and Erasmus Collected Works (Toronto, 198587).

Mirjam Bohatcov
Born Mirjam Dakova in 1919, she completed her doctorate in auxiliary historical sciences at the Charles University in Prague, specializing in the history of the book and printing in the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. She was head of the department of printed works from the fifteenth to eighteenth centuries in the library of the National Museum in Prague. She worked for 19 years in the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, and finally as an editor for the ARTIA publishing house. Her list of publications up to 1990 has been published in the year-book of the Historical Institute of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, Folia Historica Bohemica 13 (1990), pp. 51123. She regularly publishes abroad, including German articles in the Gutenberg-Jahrbuch.

Gedeon Borsa
Born in Budapest in 1923, he worked for three decades in the Hungarian National Library. The main focus of his research has been the establishment of a Hungarian national bibliography for the period prior to 1801. The section on the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries appeared in Budapest in 1971: Rgi Magyarorszgi Nyomtatvnyok 14731600 = Res litteraria Hungariae vetus operum impressorum 14731600. In his studies on the history of the book, he concentrates primarily on the history of printing, the focus of many of his articles. He is Senior Research Fellow of the National Szchnyi Library of Hungary in Budapest. His research has not, however, focused on Hungary alone, as he published a valuable Clavis typographorum librariorumque Italiae 14651600 (2 vols, Baden Baden, 1980).

Miriam Usher Chrisman
Born in 1920, she trained at Yale University, where she received her doctorate in 1962. She taught at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst from 1962 until becoming emeritus in 1987. She published Strasbourg and the Reform: A Study in the Process of Change (Yale, 1967), Lay Culture, Learned Culture: Books and Social Change in Strasbourg, 14801599 and Bibliography of Strasbourg Imprints, 14801599 (New Haven, 1982), Conflicting Visions of Reform: German Lay Propaganda Pamphlets, 15191530
