He began as a bookseller in Paris from 1502 to 1520, though his father was not in favour of this enterprise. He began to print probably in 1505. In this year he issued the Abrégé de l'Arithmétique of Boethius, the first work he is known to have printed. His studio is established in the streets of the Law School. Estienne used the mark of the old weapons of the University, a shield charged with three Fleurs de Lis, with a hand emerging from a cloud and holding a closed book. ...   He began as a bookseller in Paris from 1502 to 1520, though his father was not in favour of this enterprise.
