Note 1 | Answer by a partisan of the States-General to a statement made by the Governor-General of the Netherlands, Don Juan (Marche-en-Famenne, 25 January 1578), and published with the title 'Declaration of the intention of Sir Don Juan of Austria'. |
Note 2 | This Latin text is probably the original version. The pamphlet to which it answers, written and printed in French, is not reproduced. |
Note 3 | French version was also published, with a translation of the Latin text and including the original text of Don Juan's Declaration: see nos. 1883-1885. A Dutch translation appeared also: see nos. 1881-1882. |
Note 4 | Listed in M 296, folio 16v (Responsio ad libellum Jo. Austriaci in 4⁰, f[euilles] -). The format is in fact in 8⁰ but very likely printed in imposition by half-sheet. |
Note 5 | In a letter to J. Buyssetius, 10 December 1579, Plantin affirmed that, while he was in France, his sons-in-law were forced to print 'Certas Apologias et Discursus contra D.J. Austriacum' (Corr., VI, no. 851, page 111). |
Note 6 | Plantin delivered to the States-General, from 27 March until 28 April 1578, 240 copies (editions - Latin, Dutch or French - not specified), billed, at 1 stuivers per copy, a total of 12 florins Carolus guilders (Arch. 18, folio 268). |
