Marking the celebration for Aldus's death, the man who managed to transform typography into an art, the National LIbrary of Portugal and the Universidade Nova of Lisbon through the Centro de Estudos Históricos (CEH) and the Centro de História d’Aquém e d’Além-Mar (CHAM) joined their forces to set up a display of Aldine editions and spread the knowledge of this great humanist printer and the inventor, amongst other things, of the Italic font, through a seminar.
