Varia Bibliographica GILBERTUS JACCHAEUS, PRIMAE Varia bibliographica GILBERTUSJACCHAEUS, PRIMAE PHILOSOPHL4E, SIVEINSTITUTTOJYUM METAPHYSICARUM IJBRISEX. ED. POSTREMAPRIORE CORRECTIOR. LUGDUNI BATAVORUM, PROSTANT APUD ELSEVIRIOS, I640. At first sight this new acquisition of Leiden University Library can hardly be said to appear spectacular, but when opened it soon transpires that the little book occupies its own if modest place in a great tradition, that of the collection and description of Elze- vier editions. The text of Jacchaeus's manual is no longer as useful nowadays as it was at the time of its publication. Instead, what lends the copy special interest is its provenance. It can be reconstructed from about 1830. To judge from the style, the book must then have been rebound, whereby both upper and lower cover received the arms of B. Comte de Nedonchel de Tournay as supralibros. It next came into the possession of Charles Pieters of Ghent (1782-1863), an avid Elzevier collector and - rather uncritical - bibliographer. He proudly pasted his exlibris into it and described it in his Annales de l'imprimerieelse- virienne ...,' adding a footnote leaning heavily on Brunet,2 containing the observation that it could not have been printed by the Elzeviers and that 'le titre porte une mar- que etrangere.' He stated besides that there is an edition of 1621. At the end of 1864 Pieters's collection was sold at auction in Ghent and the book, number 138 in the cat- alogue, was bought by the Lille firm of Leleu for one and a half francs. It was no doubt they who sold the book on to Lucien Jannin of Dunkirk who also stuck in his exlibris and moreover put his name stamp into it. There are no further ownership marks in the booklet except that of the Library which bought it in the spring of 1996 from the Parisian antiquarian bookseller Rene Cluzel. Brunet and Pieters's observations led the first truly scholarly Elzevier bibliographer Alphonse Willems3 to write a footnote in his turn in his description (number 501). In it he wrote that on the authority of Pieters he had to assume that there must be two 'edi- tions' of this publication: one, as described by him, with the usual 'non solus' device, and one with Pieters's 'marque etrangere.' He had obviously been unable to find the copy once owned by Pieters, or he would have seen straightaway (as we can do now) that what we have got here is a label superimposed on the usual device.4 So now at least we are rid of that bibliographical ghost. I am not altogether convinced that the arguments Willems adduces for rejecting Brunet's statement that there had already been an Elzevier edition of Jacchaeus's text- book in 1621, are correct. 72 Argument i: he had never before seen an Elzevier imprint reading 'apud Elsevirios' for this period. (This still applies, but there were in fact two Elzeviers at the time: Bonaventura and Abraham; nor, for instance, had Willems ever before seen a device with the motto 'Lilium inter spinas' in an Elzevier edition.) Argument 2: the title reads: 'priore correctior', which according to him must refer to the only genuine first edition, the one by Jan Paets of 1616. (In my opinion the inter- pretation 'more correct than the earlier [Elzevier] edition' is equally justified.) Argument 3: the title does not occur in the publisher's lists of 1628 and 1638, nor in the 1621Frankfurt and Leipzig Fair catalogues. (I think that the same can be said of other publications. Let me mention for example the editions of 1618 of N. Clenardus, Absolutissimaeinstitutiones inGraecam linguam, typis 1. Elzevir, sumptibus H. Laurentii; and Isocrates, sumptibus Henrici Laurentii, typis Isaaci Elzevirii; of 1626 of Cl. Galenus, De tumoribus... ab Horatio Limano conversus,typis B. & A. Elzevir, and of 1638 of Pharmacopoea,et hortus, ad usumpauperum ReipublicaeLeydensis, ex officina Elseviriana, also unknown to Willems (and other bibliographers).) In short, it would not really surprise me if a 1621Jacchaeus edition were not one day still to turn up. Finally something can still be said about Brunet's remark that the booklet has not been printed by the Elzeviers. I think that he is right here and my bet would be on Fran?ois Heger of Leiden as the probable printer. R. BREUGELMANS BAUDINSPEAKS Like its author, Fernand Baudin's book Leffet Gutenberg(Edition du Cercle de la Librairie) is highly individual. The book is not a historical study, even though it does discuss in an admirable way many historical texts dealing with letters, from Pacioli and Plantin (the well-known dialogue) via Moxon, Fournier and Bodoni to Morison and Tschichold. This book, however, uses these and other texts in reflections which aim at another goal than a historical one, namely a plea for attention to writing, letters and layout. The effect of Gutenberg's invention was a division between those who designed letters and those who made use of them, and Baudin wishes to restore this lost unity by arguing for a positive attitude towards writing and letters. He even goes as far as to attribute an important function to the cultivation of writing in our age in particular: education and upbringing must make writing serviceable to humanity, to the battle against envi- ronmental pollution, nihilism and warfare. Baudin's reflections - the result of a lifelong commitment to the written and the printed word - touch the core of typography and are essential reading for everyone active in the field. He considers the art of printing to be a form of mechanical writing; the writing pen looms behind the printing types of Fournier, Baskerville and Bodoni. In this in any case he finds his colleague Gerrit Noordzij on his side. The essence of this book lies in the opposition to a strict division between the written word and typogra- phy, and this criticism deserves wide circulation. Of major didactical importance - the book is primarily intended for teachers at art academies and typographical schools - are .

  • Type Designers Who Had Based Their Designs on What Had Come Before, Baskerville Wanted to Design As It Was Written with a Pen Held at Right-Angle to the Baseline
    Johannes Gutenberg Gutenberg’s knowledge of metallurgy enabled him to produce durable alloy letter punches using moulds. These could be replicated over and over giving the printer a usable number of letters to form his text and that then could be reused in infinite combinations unlike the fixed plates, used previously, which could only be used once. Following his invention of moveable type, in 1455 it was used to produce his 42-line Bible, thought to be the first printed in using this method. Gutenberg had made printing a lot more accessible and a lot cheaper to the public than the hand- scribed documents that had preceded them. Before print, the ability to read was useful mainly to the elite and the trained scribes who handled their affairs. Affordable books made literacy a crucial skill and an unprecedented means of social advancement to those who acquired it. Gutenberg’s Bible is printed using a font called Textura. It is a Blackletter font with heavy upright letters with emphasised verticals and angled junctions and contains over 300 glyphs in order to replicate the handwritten documents it was trying to emulate. Although it is pretty illegible by today’s typographical standards, it remains a work of art comparable to the manuscripts it imitated. Johannes Gutenberg has been voted one of the top 100 most influential people of the millennium for his contribution to printing and giving ordinary people the opportunity to read and reflect on their own terms. William Caxton William Caxton introduced the art of printing to England. He was a businessman who could foresee and understand the value of printing, publishing and selling books.

  • GILL SANS BENJAMIN FALL G 2 Fall
    Fall MONOTYPE 1 GILL SANS BENJAMIN FALL g 2 Fall Gill Sans Edited and Designed by Benjamin Fall 2013 Fall Eric Gill, designer of the font Gill Sans, was not completely satisfied with Johnston Sans, the font of his mentor, Edward Johnston: “The first notable attempt to work out the norm for plain letters was made by Mr Edward Johnston when he designed the sans-serif letter for the London Underground Railways. Some of these letters are not 3 entirely satisfactory, especially when it is remembered that, for such a purpose, an alpha- bet should be as near as possible ‘fool-proof’… as the philosophers would say—nothing should be left to the imagination of the sign-writer or enamel-plate maker.” Eric Gill’s creativity allowed him to create Gill Sans, often hailed as the “Helvetica of England.” Just as the name implies, Gill Sans is a Humanist sans-serif font. The Gill Sans family includes light, regular, bold, extra bold, ultra bold, italic, condensed, and bold extra con- densed. It is more classical in proportion and has a more geometric feel than a mechani- cal one. Eric Gill intended for his font to function both in text and on display. Released in 1928, Gill Sans rose in popularity in 1929 when the London and North Eastern Railway adopted it as their standard typeface. The prominence of this use helped Gill Sans to become the preferred font of many British institutions, being widely used by the Church of England, the BBC, and Penguin Books, among others. Since 2006, Gill Sans has been freely distributed through Apple’s Operating System, as well as through Adobe’s Creative Suite.

  • Ideas, Attitudes and Beliefs About Language in Italy from The
    Ideas, Attitudes and Beliefs about Language in Italy from the Thirteenth to the Fifteenth Century Marco Spreafico A dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Combined Historical Studies The Warburg Institute University of London 2018 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. …………………………………… Marco Spreafico 2 Abstract Peter Burke has described the early modern period in Europe as the age of the ‘discovery of language’. The aim of my dissertation is to trace the linguistic and cultural phenomena which prepared the way for this discovery by studying how ideas, attitudes and beliefs about language were formed and developed in Italy from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century. In particular, I analyse the contemporary perception of the shifting relationship between Latin and the vernaculars in light of two highly significant events in the social history of language: on the one hand, the collapse of the medieval language system of functional compartmentalization of Latin and vernaculars, which is usually referred to as diglossia; on the other hand, the process of the formation of national languages known as standardization. I examine the concept of ‘historical language’ and construct a theoretical framework to analyse how it was formed and developed within communities of speakers. From this perspective, I discuss how specific varieties of the vernacular came to acquire recognition; and I interpret in sociological and historical terms the progressive emancipation of the vernaculars from Latin and their acquisition of autonomous existence in the minds of speakers. Finally, I advance an interpretation of the language ideas and choices of Italian humanists and the role they played in changing the image of Latin in early modern Italy and making it a prototype of European standardized national languages.
