520 _a"Geofroy Tory" by Auguste Bernard is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book provides an in-depth look at the life and works of Geofroy Tory, a significant figure in French typography and engraving, highlighting his contributions as France's first royal printer and his role in the reform of orthography and typography under François I. At the start of this detailed examination, we learn about Tory’s early life, beginning with his modest origins in Bourges around 1480. Bernard describes how Tory rose from humble beginnings to become an influential artist and printer, eventually earning the title of king's printer. The opening sections detail his educational journey, including his studies in Italy, and emphasize his dedication to elevating the French language and perfecting typography. This historical account sets the stage for exploring Tory's multifaceted career, alongside the cultural and artistic revolutions of the early 16th century.
