I must first express gratitude to my relations, especially my mother Dr. Candice M. Ames and my brother Andrew J. Ames and his family, without whose support I surely never could have undertaken the journey from Minnesota to the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture nearly two years ago. At Winterthur, I found mentors who extended every effort to encourage my academic growth. Rosemary Krill, Brock Jobe, J. Ritchie Garrison, and Greg Landrey did much to help me explore new fields. I owe a particular debt to Winterthur’s art conservators. In one, Consuela Metzger, I found a thesis advisor willing to devote countless hours to guiding my intellectual exploration.

    The Evolution of Typography 1 Typography is an evolution of the written word, and as such it participates in a history of visual communication extending thousands of years. That evolution is presented here in the form of a timeline that traces a development from hand, to mechanical, to digital practice, in the context of world-historical and art-historical events. The history treated in the first section of the timeline predates typography. It begins with the invention of writing over five thousand years ago and ends with the invention of movable type in Europe during the middle of the fifteenth century. The second section covers the long era of the handpress and hand-set metal types. This period, from Gutenberg’s invention of movable type to the end of the eighteenth century, lasted about 350 years. In the third section, the Industrial Revolution and nineteenth century are revealed as an era of technological innovation and an outpouring of new typographic forms. The fourth section begins with the year 1900 and covers the twentieth century,COPYRIGHTED a time when type was MATERIAL shaped by the aesthetic concerns of modernism, the need for functional communication, technological progress, and the digital revolution in typography. The final section showcases typographic design in the twenty-first century, as it expands to mobile devices and embraces the many possibilities afforded by digital production. 1 td6-Chapter1_evolution_p1-30.indd 1 9/5/14 4:15 PM From the origins of writing to 1-4 Gutenberg’s invention of movable type: 3150 BCE–1450 CE 1-8 c.

Mr. Malcolm Dallas McLean compiled about one third of the words and phrases in sections 1 and 2, and alphabetiz- ed the abbreviations in section 3, Chapter IV.
