Glasgow born Robert Foulis 1707-1776 was a Scottish printer whose work had considerable influence on the printers and publishers of his time. Initially apprenticing as a master barber he was encouraged to take up the trade of printing and bookselling at the suggestion of his friend Francis Hutcheson of the University of Glasgow. Beginning in 1741 Foulis engaged in the selling of books in Glasgow and it was very shortly thereafter in 1742 that he set up his own press. He was appointed printer to the University of Glasgow in 1743 and in the same year produced the first Greek book printed in Glasgow the Peri herm neias in both Greek and Latin of the pseudo-Demetrius Phalereus. "Five years later he went into partnership with his brother Andrew and by 1775 had produced more than 500 separate editions including an edition of Homer 4 vol. folio 175658 Callimachus small quarto 1755 Thomas Grays Poems quarto 1768 Herodotus Thucydides and Xenophon with Latin translations and one of the first Scottish editions of Shakespeare. The Foulises best works were distinguished by their excellent layout legibility and accuracy." EB April 2019. Some of the credit for their achievement is attributable to the renowned type-maker and punch-cutter Alexander Wilson from whom they purchased their types. Robert Foulis died on 2 June 1776 in Edinburgh. <br/><br/> In Aedibus Academicis Excudebat Robertus Foulis Academiae Typographus. hardcover
