Biography

Jean-Louis de Boubers, born in Lille, was the son of Henri-Louis de Boubers de Corbeville, Captain in the Maillé Infantry Regiment and of Marie-Catherine Gavois.[1] He was the brother of Claude-René-Denis de Boubers, named Denis de Boubers, "one of the most remarkable typographer of France",[2] and of Henri-François de Boubers, printer.

Son-in-law in first marriage (1752) of Louis-François Barbier, bookseller in Arras, his second wife (1759) was the daughter of the Lille bookseller André-Joseph Panckoucke.[3] He entered the selected circle of the founder of the eighteenth century first press empire created by Charles-Joseph Panckoucke and Henri Agasse de Cresne (fr). This northern French tradition will continue through Jean Prouvost (fr), founder of the press group Paris Match and Marie Claire.

Printer and bookseller in Dunkerque in 1748, there is strong evidence to indicate that he got another address registration in Liège. "Liège was actually a duty-free country where printing was developing in the eighteenth century because of equally free counterfeiting practices."[4] In 1759, Jean-Louis de Boubers had allegedly been involved in the conflict between Pierre Rousseau (fr) and Liege authorities: he was ordered "to migrate from the city within three times twenty four hours". In 1760, he wished to go to Lille to replace Charles-Joseph Panckoucke but was blocked by the town councillor.[1] However in 1761, he obtained the Liege Bourgeois diploma.

Then he migrated to Brussels where he got authorization to establish as printer in 1768. Six years later he was responsible of the most prestigious editions of the Jean-Jacques Rousseau complete works in 12 volumes at a London address.

Granted the privilege of Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie bookseller, he published plays and opéras comiques performed from 1777 to 1799.

Freemason, he joined the Brussels Lodge Les Vrais Amis de la Justice. He printed the journal de Bruxelles.[5] Jean-Louis de Boubers died in Brussels in 1804.
