| description | Previous attempts to describe the life of Peter van Selow, one of the more
important type founders and printers in Sweden during the first half of the
seventeenth century, have suffered from serious deficiencies: we knew neither
the dates of his birth and death, nor was it clear where he was born. Quite
consistently he was characterised as a Dutchman. Thanks to a newly discovered
funeral sermon that has survived in Stuttgart, many blank spots in Van Selow’s
biography can now be filled in: Van Selow was born in Grevesmühlen in
Mecklenburg, 1582, and he died in Stockholm, 1650. This study combines
information from the recently located new source with long-known Swedish
scholarship on the hitherto enigmatic type founder and printer. Sources about
the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, in whose service Van Selow was employed
for several years, were also used to fill in some gaps. |
