Abstract

These two volumes document the life and work of the British typographer Anthony Froshaug, providing a wealth of information that reinforces his contribution as a deep and charismatic thinker-practitioner. Volume 1 Typography & texts concerns the work of Anthony Froshaug with an introduction by the editor along with Froshaug's work as designer and printer in selected, annotated reproduction, his writings and a catalogue of his work. Volume 2 Documents a life is a sequence of texts and images, with annotations by the editor. It covers the span of Froshaug's life: as a child, as a student of the Central School of Arts & Crafts, as a designer & printer in West Cornwall, as a teacher at the Central School, the Hochschule fur Gestaltung Ulm, the Royal College of Art, Watford School of Art, and elsewhere. This volume is a documentary: consisting of what was recorded and what survives, animated by the spirit of its subject.

Abstract

This history of typography starts with the early years of the Enlightenment in Europe, around 1700 up to the present moment. It was then that typography began to be distinct from printing. Instructional manuals were published, a record of the history of printing began to be constructed, and the direction of the printing processes was taken up by a new figure: the typographer. Different cultures and countries become the focus for the discussion, as they become significant. In the nineteenth century, Britain provides the main context for modern typography. In the twentieth century, the USA and certain continental European countries are prominent. Kinross provides concise accounts of modernist typography in Central Europe between the wars and in Switzerland in the 1950s and 1960s. Traditionalist typography in the USA, Britain, Germany and the Low Countries is also discussed sympathetically. The book concludes with a critical discussion of the literature of typographic history, and a full bibliography.

Abstract

Over twenty-five years of engagement, somewhere in the borderlands between journalism and the academy, Robin Kinross has written for magazines and journals, making a case for typography as a matter of fine detail and subtle judgement, whose products concern all of us, every day. This selection of his shorter writings brings his major themes into focus: the unsung virtues of editorial and information design, the fate of Modernism in the twentieth century, the work of dissident and critical Modernist designers, the contributions of emigré designers from Europe in the English-speaking world, the virtues of a socially-oriented design approach. He argues for a design that is of use in the world, and against the cult of design and the delusions of theory. Pieces move from patient exposition, to sharp critique, to warm appreciation. This book presents an unexpected body of writing, which stakes out fresh territory between the purely academic and the merely journalistic. The whole is an unusual and powerful contribution to the subject of typography. (text publisher)
