gignificance of The Aldine The Aldine takes its name from that of Manutius Aldus, one of the greatest names in printing of the fifteenth century. Born in 1450 at Sermo- neta in the Papal States, he had as his ambition to secure the literature of Greece from further accident by committing its chief masterpieces to type, and the history of his life is the record of the execution of this gigantic task. Aldus grouped around him the great Greek scholars to collect manu- scripts and read proofs. His own energy was inexhaustible. As there was no standard Greek type, Aldus designed and cut an entire set of Greek letters comprising six hundred characters in all. Aldine editions are characterized by their accuracy and careful work- manship.
