Estienne carries his triple system through the succeeding dictionaries in our corpus, although there are some changes in typography from one dictionary to another.
Estienne's system for setting out macro-articles included wide use of indented text; that is, the first line (including the lemma) was set flush to the left margin, and the second and succeeding lines were indented.
In Exhibit 38 we attempt to illustrate the way in which Estienne used typography to improve the consultability of his dictionaries (although we do not reproduce his fonts).

 Robert Estienne Summary
Estienne paid special attention to the quality of his printing, not only by using the olive tree insignia designed by Proofreader Geogroy Tory but with types designed by Claude Garamond specifically for the printing house.
In 1539, he received the distinguishing title of "Printer in Greek to the king." But the official recognition and the crown's approval to his undertaking could not save him from the censure and ceaseless opposition of the divines, and in 1550, to escape the violence of his persecutors, he emigrated to Geneva.
French writers identify him with a printer by the name of Estienne in Normandy, to which he is supposed to have emigrated in 1582.

 Concordances of the Bible
It served as the basis of the concordance published in 1555 by Robert Estienne (Stephens), the distinguished French Protestant scholar and printer.
Estienne added proper names, supplied omissions, mingled the indeclinable words with the others in alphabetical order, and gave the indications to all passages by verse as well as by chapter, in all these respects bringing his work much closer to the present model.
The earliest concordances to the Greek New Testament are those of Birken or Betulius (Basle, 1546), Henry Estienne (Paris, 1594), and Erasmus Schmid (Wittenberg, 1638), whose work was twice revised and republished.

Founded by Henry Estienne, the press of the Stephani, as the name appears in its Hellenized form, presented its first Greek publication in 1544.
Henry had worked closely with his father in the preparation of classical texts during the last five years of the latter's life.
Henry therefore chose a man who outshone even the Stephani in learning, Adrien Turnebe (Turnebus), who had held the chair of Greek and Latin literature at the College Royal since 1547.

Henry d'Albret also devoted himself to the placing of the country in a proper state of defence, and fortified several of the towns.
Henry d'Albret was also anxious to refortify Sauveterre, which the Prince of Orange, with one of the Imperial armies, had captured in 1523, when he half-demolished the old castle of Montreal, then the most formidable citadel in Beam.
Estienne is constantly quoting the _Heptameron_, and though to a certain extent the inveteracy with which the friars are attacked here must have given the book a special attraction for him, two things may be gathered from his quotations and attributions.

A year after their marriage in 1533, Henry began a long-term affair with Diane de Poitiers following the death of her husband, who had been a close friend to Henrys' father Francois I. During the reign of her husband (1547–1559), Catherine lived a quiet and passive life but observed what was going on.
Henry was loyal to de Poitiers, and trusted his mistress completely, and he was under her influence for the next 25 years.
When Henry II was badly wounded in a jousting event in 1559, however, Catherine took control.

The basis of Beza's text was Estienne 1551 with a few minor changes, amounting to less than a hundred.
His annotations included the readings gathered by Henry Estienne for his father Robert, whose collations had come into Beza's possession, and also included notes on the readings of the Peshitta Syriac version (as translated into Latin by Tremellius).
Because his text of 1598 was evidently favoured by the King James translators, it is reprinted with a few alterations in Scrivener's reconstruction of the text underlying that version (see Scrivener 1881, in which all departures from Beza are marked).

This Robert Stephanus (Estienne or Stephens, as the name is usually called) was a member of one of the most illustrious families of learned printers the world has ever seen.
The founder of the family was Henry Stephens, born at Paris in 1470, and the last of the race died there in 1674.
Another son of Robert Stephens, named Henry, was one of those scholars who have ruined themselves by their love of literature, devoting their lives and their fortunes to the production of volumes on some special branch of study in which only a few learned readers are interested.
