Isabel de Labayen: printer and editor in 17th century Pamplona

The figure of Isabel de Labayen is studied, a woman who was not only the daughter, wife and mother of renowned printers in Navarre in the seventeenth century, but who even signed some works published in her workshop. Clarifying this activity as a printer and editor will be the fundamental purpose of this work. This is achieved thanks to the information provided by the imprints and the legal paratexts of certain editions, but mainly through the documentary testimonies kept in archives. The aim is thus to reconstruct in the most reliable way possible the role that this woman played in the Pamplona publishing network of her time.
