Johann Scapula, German printer, worked in the printing office of Henri Estienne, whose
Thesaurus
he abridged and plagiaristically published as an original work. The first edition was published in Bâle in 1579, only seven
years after the work of Estienne, q.v. no. 4760. Smaller in size than the
Thesaurus of Estienne, Scapula’s
Lexicon became very popular, and was frequently reprinted. Jefferson had three editions in his own library, according to his manuscript catalogue, and in 1803 he tried to buy from Charles Pougens a copy for the Library of Congress.
