Print Publishing in Sixteenth-Century Rome: Growth and Expansion, Rivalry and Murder brings formal coherence to the mass of prints published in Rome in the sixteenth century. The five chapters provide an outline of the history of print publishing over the course of the century, identifying who was publishing what prints and when, and tracing the lives, activities, relationships, and rivalries of various major and minor publishers, printers, engravers, and artists. The book includes over 680 prints, of which 320 are illustrated. Six appendices clarify chronologies and provide indexed lists.
