Johann Justinus GEBAUER (1710 -1772)

Johann Justinus Gebauer (May 19, 1710 in Waltershausen, † January 26, 1772 in Halle) was a German publisher. From 1724 Johann Justinus Gebauer completed an apprenticeship as a bookseller with Chr. Franciscus Buch in Jena. He then worked from 1732, initially as a factor in the printing works of Stephan Orban (1681–1732) in Halle. After Orban's death, he bought his own printing house and continued to run it. Later, he founded his own publishing house in Halle. After Gebauer's death, the company was continued from 1772, first by his son Johann Jakob Gebauer and from 1818 by his grandson Friedrich Wilhelm Ferdinand Gebauer (1786-1819). When he died at the age of just 33, Carl August Schwetschke acquired the Gebauer printing and publishing house, which has operated ever since under the name Gebauer-Schwetschke. Gebauer printed around 500 works; among the most important are - in addition to the first editions of the Canstein Bible - the publication of the first 30 volumes of the Allgemeinen Welthistorie (1742-1766, edited by Georg David Kypke and Johann Salomo Semler, among others), the edition in 24 volumes of the writings of Martin Luther (1740-1753) edited by Johann Georg Walch and the Postilla of the Lutheran church of Walch. In addition to German and Latin titles, Gebauer also published and printed works in Bohemian, Polish and Hungarian.
