Stites assembled, individually signed, and marketed to academic libraries in the 1960s. In 1966, Stites was president of Stites Associates in Washington, DC, and he amassed several thousand leaves that were removed from rare books and manuscripts and collected by earlier bibliophiles. The original intent of the creation of these folio collections was to address “the concern of rare book collectors today, that the price of a book only a few centuries old had become too costly.” The folios created an affordable way for academic libraries to purchase many examples of artifacts, rare books, and manuscripts. Please note that although these folios have educational and research potential for those interested in the history of the written word and European printing presses, the IUP Special Collections and University Archives does not condone the unnecessary separation of leaves from any rare book or manuscript. Stites created 122 portfolio sets of leaves removed from rare books and manuscripts that were sold to academic libraries (including the IUP Libraries).

  • Fundamental Truths About Handwriting
    Appendix A Fundamental Truths About Handwriting 1. The act of writing is a skill learned through repetition until it becomes a habit. 2. Handwriting requires the concerted effort of the brain, muscles, and nerves. 3. No two people write exactly alike. 4. Individual characteristics that are unique to a particular writer exist in every person’s handwriting, distinguishing it from every other handwriting. 5. There is natural variation in everyone’s handwriting. 6. No one can exactly duplicate anything he or she has written. 7. No one can write better than his or her skill level. 8. People adopt writing styles. 9. People stylize their writing, deviating from the method they were taught. 10. Many writing habits are subconscious and therefore cannot be changed by the writer. 11. A writer can be identified by his or her subconscious habits. 12. A person’s normal form of writing is based on mental images of learned letter designs. 13. A person’s handwriting changes over the course of his or her lifetime. 14. Substance abuse affects handwriting. 15. Some illnesses, trauma, and emotions may result in changes in handwriting. 16. It is not possible to determine what caused a change in the handwriting from studying the handwriting characteristics. 17. If the writer places the pen on the paper before starting to write, the lines will have blunt initial strokes. 18. If the writer stops the pen before lifting it from the paper, the writer will leave a blunt ending on the words. 19. If the writer has the pen in motion when beginning and ending writing, the initial and terminal strokes will be tapered or faded.

  • Chirography Maria Weyraugh
    Chirography Maria Weyraugh Part III Helpful hints and fast track rules in writing Copperplate, Roundhand and or Engraver’s Script In our early years, as students of printing and cursive writing, the most likely rules of writing were, under the “Palmer” method. Even so, as our letters were formed and graded upon, as we copied them from examples posted around the room or over the blackboard, once we moved forward into the Intermediate and High School levels, our writing wasn’t graded though it was helpful to be readable. In this transition where our teachers forced the student to follow the boundaries of rule in writing each letter and or number, our overseeing ceased as we progressed in studies of a higher level. Having to write faster as to keep up with notes, it was easy for me and no doubt for others, to become lazy and take as little time as possible in our writing. If we were aware of our sloppy writing and wished to impress our teacher before handing in any written assignment, we were apt to be copying more slowly, form our letters more clearly as we copied from our draft. First, the writer needs to be sitting in a comfortable position. If you are not comfortable, your writing will not be either. Second, the writer needs to understand that the goose quill or the metal nib, even older fountain pens, will never withstand extremely harsh pressure on the tip or writing surface of the nib. Some nibs are more flexible than others. The learning process is learning from “touch” or “feel” as you write.

  • A Study on Quantitative Evaluation of Calligraphy Characters
    Computer Technology and Application 7 (2016) 103-122 D doi: 10.17265/1934-7332/2016.02.005 DAVID PUBLISHING A Study on Quantitative Evaluation of Calligraphy Characters Zelong Wang1, Mengyuan Liao1 and Zenichiro Maekawa2 1. Department of Advanced Fibro-Science, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Kyoto 606-8585, Japan 2. Future-Applied Conventional Technology Center, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Kyoto 606-8585, Japan Abstract: In this study, a numerical method was proposed to evaluate the calligraphy work called calligraphy evaluation system. Four classical chirographies of “Kaisho”, “Gyosho”, “Sousho” and “Hiragana”, and 47 characters for each chirography, were selected and analyzed by this system. The “Sumi” distribution of character was clarified from 12 directions and summarized into four parts of horizontal part, diagonal left part, vertical part and diagonal right part. The character‟s contour line was converted to a signal data in order to calculate roundness index. The degree of character‟s radian was presented by roundness index. The smooth index was calculated at the same time. Additionally, width index, “Sumi” ratio, stability index also were calculated to contrast the features of each style. The main character points of four styles of “Kaisho”, “Gyosho”, “Sousho”, “Hiragana” were extracted to compare each other, and provide a reference for learners. The learners could obtain the quantitative data to understand their work‟s characteristics. It can also be compared with other person‟s work by this system in order to improve learners‟ writing skill. Key words: Calligraphy, chirography, quantization, evaluation, regular script, running script, cursive script, hiragana. Nomenclature are divided into two big flows of the phonogram and the ideograph at present.

Circum stances having caused a lengthy discontinuance of the series, it is now deemed preferable to publish the whole of the sketches in a volume—after thorough revision than to resume the original scheme.
