<div class="dates">Printer in Paris, 1504–c.1514</div>
<p>Libraire-imprimeur</p>
<p>Successor to his uncle, Guy Marchant, at the same address, with the same typographic material.
In 1504 and 1505 there are books signed by each man, suggesting that there was a loose transitional partnership in these years as the business passed from uncle to nephew.</p>
<p>The last book with Jean Marchant’s name seems to be ''Inventaire chronologique'' 1511, no. 176.
There is a small group of books from 1512 which have his device with the initials ‘I.M.’
The address <i>in Bellouisu</i> is found until at least 1517.
The typographical material remains in use up to and beyond 1520.</p>
<p>It is assumed here that Jean Marchant’s active participation ceased in about 1513 or 1514,
and that the material passed at that time to a successor press.
By the early 1520s, some of this material is still traceable in the work of an anonymous press
which Brigitte Moreau called the ‘Atelier des dauphins couronnés’ (<i>Inventaire chronologique</i>, t. 3, no. 415 and ‘Tables des imprimeurs’, p. 667).</p>
<p>In two books of 1511 the printing is shared with Thomas Kees.
Marchant’s material is found in parts of two volumes of Duns Scotus’s <i>Super sententias</i> of c.1514 whose production was shared among a number of printers.</p>
<p>His output consists almost entirely of quartos in Latin until c.1511.</p>
<p>Frequently uses the ‘Parisius’ form of Paris.</p>
<p>Year dates often in arabic figures from 1507.</p>
