'''Jodocus Badius''' (or '''Josse Badius''' or '''Josse Bade''') (1462–1535) was a pioneer of the printing industry, and also a renowned [[linguistics|grammarian]] and [[pedagogy|pedagogue]].

Sometimes called '''Badius Ascensius''' from the village of [[Asse]], near [[Brussels]], where he was born, he became an eminent [[printer (publisher)|printer]] at [[Paris]]. His establishment came to be known as the ''Prelum Ascensianum''. He was also a scholar of considerable repute, had studied at Brussels and [[Ferrara]], and, before settling in Paris, had taught [[Greek language|Greek]] for several years at [[Lyon]]. He illustrated with notes several of the classics which he printed, and was the author of numerous pieces, amongst which are a life of [[Thomas a Kempis]], and a satire on the follies of women, entitled ''Navicula Stultarum Mulierum''.[1]

Badius worked first as an editor and proof-reader for the printer [[Jean Trechsel]] in [[Lyon]] (1492–1498).
He then moved to Paris where he set up his printing shop in 1503.
His production was almost entirely in Latin. He specialised in editions of [[Ancient Rome|Roman]] classical texts, often with his own ''familiare commentum'' for the student market,[2]
and also Latin works by contemporary humanist writers.[3]

Badius's shop was one of the most productive of the period 1501–1530: 775 editions are listed in the bibliography in [[Philippe Renouard]]'s ''Imprimeurs & libraires parisiens du XVIe siècle''.
He frequently worked for or in partnership with Jean Petit, who was by far the most important wholesale bookseller/publisher of this period.
