Amerbach, Johannes (1443–1513)

Swiss printer and publisher. After studying in Paris he set up a printing press in Basel in 1478 and specialized in producing high quality texts of the works of the Church Fathers. His house became a virtual academy for northern European scholars, one of the leading figures who visited him being Johannes Reuchlin. This intellectual tradition was continued by Amerbach's successor, the publisher Johann Froben.

In 1511 Amerbach employed a Dominican, Johannes Cono of Nuremberg (1463–1513), to instruct his sons and anyone interested in Greek and Hebrew in his own house.
