According to Musée Ducal (1955), p.33, the censorship in France in the second half of the eighteenth century was so rigourous that many authors submitted their manuscripts to foreign presses. Many presses sprang up along the border of France to serve that very need. One of these was a so-called typographical society in the small Belgian town of Bouillon Musée Ducal (1955), p.34 indicates that the Société Typographique de Bouillon was established on 1768, November 24, and that this was done at the instigation of Pierre Rousseau (1716-1785). After the death of Rousseau in 1785, his widow dissolved the Society; this evidently took full effect in 1788, when the physical printing presses were being dispersed for other purposes Musée Ducal (1955), pp.36-37). The Société Typographique de Bouillon was not a scholarly society as such; it did not have a collection of members who met and delivered papers, some or all of which were published by the organization. We have included it in the Repertorium Veterrimarum Societatum Litterariarum, because its journal was indexed in the Reuss Repertorium (whose scope was limited largely to serial works of scholarly societies), and we are attempting to explicate as many journal-title abbreviations found in that esteemed source as possible. |
