In de 16de eeuw was Antwerpen een belangrijk humanistisch centrum. De ideale omgeving voor boekbinder-drukker en eersteklas netwerker Christoffel Plantijn. Via brieven hield hij contact met figuren zoals de geleerde Justus Lipsius, de kaartenmaker Abraham Ortelius en de plantkundige Rembert Dodoens. Dit boek bundelt de brieven die het meest tot de verbeelding spreken en die de uitgever-zakenman in volle actie tonen: terwijl hij auteurs ronselt, een Bijbelvertaling opstart, problemen met personeel oplost en nog veel meer. Plantijns brieven bieden zo meer inzicht in de persoon Plantijn én in de zestiende-eeuwse tijdsgeest met thema?s die ook vandaag nog brandend actueel zijn, zoals internationale handel, oorlog, censuur, reputatieschade, vader-dochterrelaties...00Exhibition: 'Brieven van Plantin', Museum Plantin-Moretus, Antwerp, Belgium (28.11.2020-28.2.2021).
