Shady Characters: the Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols, and Other Typographical Marks Pdf, Epub, Ebook SHADY CHARACTERS: THE SECRET LIFE OF PUNCTUATION, SYMBOLS, AND OTHER TYPOGRAPHICAL MARKS PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Keith Houston | 352 pages | 24 Sep 2013 | WW Norton & Co | 9780393064421 | English | New York, United States Shady Characters: The Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols, and Other Typographical Marks PDF Book I recommend this book to all who are interested in matters of punctuation, and I apologize if any of the symbols that I have noted in this review do not show up on all viewers and browsers. And of course an entirely other book could cover symbols used in mathematical notation. Welcome back. Intent on letting the reader experience the pleasure and intellectual stimulation in reading classic authors, Introduced into the history of writing throughout various stages of history when writing meant hand writing on paper or parchment it was easy for punctuation marks to be born, evolve and exist above, below, or in the margins of the written material. Well, alright then. The book is often engrossing… An unusual triumph of the human ability to find exaltation in the mundane. View 2 comments. Faithful asterisk and dagger, ampersand and quotation marks and their long history. And where did asterisks come from--I prefer that term to star--or the dagger? By which I mean, of course: this. Some have become part of the character set of modern written language, while others have faded, especially the various attempts at the irony mark. Well-researched, well- written account of for the most part how some obscure punctuation marks developed in form over time rather than slanted toward usage, say, although any history is necessarily going to touch on that. A good break of non-fiction. You know the saying: There's no time like the present March 15, Oh, I forgot to mention that I had my attention drawn to the narrow gutterstrip by my cousin who is a book binder. There's also a decent depth of information in this book from a "tech" perspective — interestingly, this book cites the Python 2. A charming and indispensable tour of two thousand years of the written word, Shady Characters weaves a fascinating trail across the parallel histories of language and typography. Kaye Cossar Stokes.

But it's not a great read; certainly nowhere near "Confessions of a Comma Queen.

I remember being tickled at the concept upon learning of it in the Chicago Manual it is as subtle as it is useful , and Stan more than does it justice at Sentence First. Highly recommended. The advent of the printing press brought a level of standardization to language, but also a winnowing. Punctuation is so prevalent and seems so fixed that it is treated as just furniture in the house in which words live, and its origins and evolution are assumed or ignored. Amazon Kindle 0 editions. Questions about the book? Perhaps some of the more esoteric marks discussed will make a form of comeback in the new digitalised platforms we enjoy today on our computers… Recommended for anyone interested in typography, punctuation and graphic design. A hand with a pointing finger--maybe with a nice cuff or a ruffled flounce, perhaps with hand in a fist or index finger outlandishly enlongated. Martin Heidegger is perhaps the most influential, yet Officially known as the octothorpe, it apparently derives originally from the Latin libra scales pondo to weigh. On the subject of significant breaks, I am extremely late in bringing to your attention an intriguing tweet published by Katie Henry back in , but it is too good not to share:. Shady Characters is an authoritative, witty, and fascinating tour of the history and rationale behind such lesser known marks as the ampersand, manicule, the pilcrow, and the interrobang.

Shady Characters: The Secret Life of Punctuation, Symbols, and Other Typographical Marks Writer More Details It was the flexibility of quills and vellum that made it possible to create a more variegated collection of fonts. When everything was written down there was little to no uniformity in terms of symbols and their meanings. Where did that sign come from? Glenn is an old friend of the blog and is astonishingly well-informed about books, typography and all things related: we talked about books and book history for what felt like a few minutes, but turned out to be the better part of an hour. Why employ two strokes A! I mostly enjoyed this recent "impulse request" from the library. Dear shadychars , you are the only one I can turn to in this situation. Read and enjoy! Paperback List Price: The latter turned up the earliest tweet by over a fortnight, posted on the 11th of February:. My favourite chapter would have to be the Manicule one, as it's the only piece of punctuation that was for the reader and not the writer. Keith Houston wrote a very clever and enjoyable book. I do have a tattoo of the alphabet, though! Houston covers some of the same territory, noting that quotation marks arose from the Christian desire to be as exact and accurate as possible in attributing speech to Jesus. Are you required?

Houston documents how these shifts changed, established, and in some cases threatened punctuation. The jury is still out on yours truly. So you'd do well to read it from cover to cover. Oct 22, Spencer Borup rated it it was amazing Shelves: all-time-favorites. Perhaps a Twitter user hunting for an em dash alighted on a visually similar mark by mistake. However, overall, this book was a wonderful journey through history and language. Showing And how about Ampersand? The book jumps around through history, trying to pinpoint the origin of various marks. The book in question is called A pickle for the knowing ones, or, Plain truths in a homespun dress , 3 and it was self-published by the aforementioned Timothy Dexter as a gift for his friends. Quotation marks as inverted commas? Having finished it, I have no idea what to do with the seven! But with the introduction of mechanical printing with Gutenberg, then the typewriter, then photo-set printing, it became necessary to standardize the shape, location, and usage of punctuation. Born in Scotland in Even Castle talked about fitting words to the page in a recent episode. Things are always in flux, and with the advent of cheap and widespread computing power there is no reason to think we aren't on the verge of a symbol revolution. How did you come to be? If you are ignorant about how people wrote and read way back when what do you mean there were no spaces between words?! In this case, I'll defer to Houston's use of the emoticon ; Very entertaining if at times slow going. This book does not read fast--it is dry in places but for the most part is interesting and even humorous. The excellent interior design was by Judith Abbate. Which I don't. Lists with This Book.

Houston also spends quite some time on the origin of the official name octothorpe for the symbol; another odd punctuation name "pilcrow" is the backwards P that is used by word processing software to represent paragraph spacing.

  • Characters for Classical Latin
    Characters for Classical Latin David J. Perry version 13, 2 July 2020 Introduction The purpose of this document is to identify all characters of interest to those who work with Classical Latin, no matter how rare. Epigraphers will want many of these, but I want to collect any character that is needed in any context. Those that are already available in Unicode will be so identified; those that may be available can be debated; and those that are clearly absent and should be proposed can be proposed; and those that are so rare as to be unencodable will be known. If you have any suggestions for additional characters or reactions to the suggestions made here, please email me at [email protected] . No matter how rare, let’s get all possible characters on this list. Version 6 of this document has been updated to reflect the many characters of interest to Latinists encoded as of Unicode version 13.0. Characters are indicated by their Unicode value, a hexadecimal number, and their name printed IN SMALL CAPITALS. Unicode values may be preceded by U+ to set them off from surrounding text. Combining diacritics are printed over a dotted cir- cle ◌ to show that they are intended to be used over a base character. For more basic information about Unicode, see the website of The Unicode Consortium, http://www.unicode.org/ or my book cited below. Please note that abbreviations constructed with lines above or through existing let- ters are not considered separate characters except in unusual circumstances, nor are the space-saving ligatures found in Latin inscriptions unless they have a unique grammatical or phonemic function (which they normally don’t).

  • The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters
    The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters Version 2.06, October 31, 2014 Pim Rietbroek Preamble Few typefaces – if any – allow the user to access every Latin character, every IPA character, every diacritic, and to have these combine in a typographically satisfactory manner, in a range of styles (roman, italic, and more); even fewer add full support for Greek, both modern and ancient, with specialised characters that papyrologists and epigraphers need; not to mention coverage of the Slavic languages in the Cyrillic range. The Brill typeface aims to do just that, and to be a tool for all scholars in the humanities; for Brill’s authors and editors; for Brill’s staff and service providers; and finally, for anyone in need of this tool, as long as it is not used for any commercial gain.* There are several fonts in different styles, each of which has the same set of characters as all the others. The Unicode Standard is rigorously adhered to: there is no dependence on the Private Use Area (PUA), as it happens frequently in other fonts with regard to characters carrying rare diacritics or combinations of diacritics. Instead, all alphabetic characters can carry any diacritic or combination of diacritics, even stacked, with automatic correct positioning. This is made possible by the inclusion of all of Unicode’s combining characters and by the application of extensive OpenType Glyph Positioning programming. Credits The Brill fonts are an original design by John Hudson of Tiro Typeworks. Alice Savoie contributed to Brill bold and bold italic. The black-letter (‘Fraktur’) range of characters was made by Karsten Lücke.

  • December 2016 Issue
    Newsletter of the Canberra Society of Editors Volume 25 • Number 4 September | December 2016 Hello Canberra editors! From the President The four months spanned by this edition of The Canberra editor bring CSE to the end of a somewhat tumultuous year. You will recall that in March, members voted decisively—for the second time—not to wind up the Society and become a branch of a restructured 'head office' Institute of Professional Editors (IPEd). Instead, we voted to remain the independent society of editors we have been for 24 years—at least until CSE's longstanding concerns about the new IPEd's governance, financing and branch administration arrangements are satisfactorily handled, rather than being brushed aside as continuously occurred during the exhausting two-year consultation process. CSE is the only one of the seven editors' societies that now remains independent after 1 July. The first test of members' decision in March came mid-year at renewals time. After a couple of nervous months for the Committee, the number of renewing and new members was very encouraging, and bodes well for our continuing delivery of the services members have come to expect. At 30 June, CSE's total membership (Life, Full, Associate, Corporate, Student) was 177. At the end of the renewal period (July–August), it was 110, and there has been a steady flow of new members since then. Many CSE members have, as expected, become direct members of Contentsback to contents IPEd (attached to the NSW branch in most cases); some have let their News CSE membership lapse, while others also remain CSE members (at the From the President newly reduced membership fee).
