The second Greek publication was the _Batrachomyomachia_, and the third, an edition of the _Works and Days_ of Hesiod (probably the first printed issue of this author). The fourth Greek volume was the _Grammar_ of Emanuel Chrysoloras, a Greek scholar, whose influence had been of so great service in furthering the study of Greek literature in Florence. After the publication of this _Grammar_, Gourmont assumed the title which he had fairly earned, _Primus Græcarum Litterarum Parisiis Impressor_. In the following year, he established his claim to the like honourable distinction for the Hebrew, by his impression of two works from the zealous pen of his scholarly patron Tissard, the _Grammatica Hebraica et Græca_, in quarto, and the _Alphabetum Hebraicum et Græcum_, also in quarto. Shortly after the issue of these two volumes, Tissard died. His work as the supervising scholar of the Greek Press in Paris was carried on by Hieronymus Aleander, an Italian scholar who had been invited by Louis XII. to take up his residence in Paris. Aleander gave lectures in the forenoon in the University on the language and literature of Greece, while the evenings were devoted to readings in Cicero. In the year 1512, he was elected Rector of the University, and in this position and by means of a liberal use of the pension given him by the King, he was able to do much in furthering the development of the printing, in Paris, of Greek texts. In the year 1512, Aleander gave to the public a _Lexicon Græco-Latinum_, which bore the imprint of Gourmontius and Bolsecus, the latter being the second Greek typographer of Paris. Aleander had been a member of the Academy of Aldus, who inscribed to him his edition of _Homeri Ilias Græce_, and who speaks in high terms of his literary qualifications. Aleander had also been a friend and literary associate of Erasmus, and had given to the learned Hollander valuable assistance in the compilation of his _Adagia_. This friendship failed to stand the test of religious differences, and Aleander, when later employed by Leo X. to combat the doctrines of the Lutheran heretics, exercised his tongue and pen with great acrimony against the Sage of Rotterdam.[3]
