==Janus Press==
The Janus Press was named by Van Vliet for "the ancient Roman god (Janus) for the rising and setting sun, stood for balance in the Renaissance because of his ability to look both forward and backward…the book as a balanced and unified statement with all of its parts integral and serving to illuminate one another, is the ideal for which the press seeks.”〔Fine, Ruth. (1975) ''The Janus Press,'' 1955-75 : catalogue raisonné / (Vt. ) : Robert Hull Fleming Museum, University〕
