[From back cover] This largely pictorial survey embraces the development and practice of Western calligraphy in the twentieth century. It ranges from the revival by Edward Johnston of calligraphy based on historical scripts, through the pioneering work of his students in Britain, Germany and North America, to he current period of expansion and new forms of expression. Calligraphers are increasingly looking beyond the traditional to the dynamics of German graphic design and to the calligraphy of other cultures - Islamic and Japanese. The text by Heather Child, a distinguished long-term Fellow of the Society of Scribes and Illuminators, incorporates notable articles by Ann Camp, Villu Toots and Sheila Waters. Illustrations include examples of historical scripts and the work of some 100 calligraphers, particularly contemporary work from such hands as Donald Jackson, Friedrich Neugebauer and Thomas Ingmire. 200 photographs. Cover design by Julian Waters. Seller Inventory # 20250407020
