Years: 1539 - 1539
Bishop Zumárraga, after receiving permission from Spanish king Carlos V and the archbishop of Mexico City, has a printing press brought to Mexico City from Europe in October 1539.
The press is set up in a house called the “Casa de las Campanas” (House of the Bells) by the Seville-based publisher Juan Cromberger with Italian printer Juan Pablos, who works for living expenses for ten years.
Pablos, born Giovani Paolo born in the region of Brescia around 1500, may have been trained in the same school as Aldus Manutius, but apart from that nothing is known about his early years.
They begin printing viceregal- and Church-related documents.
One of these documents is a catechism entitled “The Brief and Most Concise Christian Doctrine in the Mexican Language” written by the archbishop himself.
