Langenes, Barent

Barent Langenes (fl. 1598-1609) was a publisher of Middelburg, Netherlands. Little is known of him except that he wrote the text for and printed Caert-Thresoor, a pocket atlas initially published in Dutch by Cornelis Claesz in 1598, with later Dutch editions published to 1609. Latin editions were published (also by Cornelis Claesz) with text by Petrus Bertius from 1600. It was also translated into French and German. The engravers included Pieter van den Keere and Jodocus Hondius. In Atlantes Neerlandici, Koeman opines that "it sets a new standard for minor atlases. The small maps are extremely well-engraved: neat and clear, elegantly composed".
