Grammar textbook for the use of students, officially summarised from the grammar of
Despauterius, giving the rudiments, the etymology, the syntax, the prosody and poetry
of Latin language. Voet doesn’t consider the summarised arrangements of Despauterius’
grammar of 1571-1572 as written by Verrept but by another scholar. The priest and
schoolmaster Verrepaeus (1522-1598) became in c. 1550 rector of the Thabor Convent
in Malines. The Calvinist rising forced him to an errant life but he finally settled down in
‘s Hertogenbosh where he became canon of the Cathedral Chapter of St. Jan and rector
of the Chapter school.
Very rare work
, Voet listed only our copy but we have found two others in German libraries
(Dresden and Duchess Anna Amelia library). The first part, not dated but probably printed
in 1568, was printed by an unidentified typographer for Antonius Tilenius. The second part
was printed by Plantin as written in the colophon, so were also probably the third and fourth
as they present the same style and type.
First edition
after Voet though the Belgian biographical dictionary mentions a previous
edition lost. Voet recommends not to confound that edition with the later editions of Verrept
published for the first time by Plantin in 1578, no comparison has been made between the
two editions though.
