Download or read book Words around the Font written by Gail Ramshaw and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-09-06 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes more, sometimes less, Christians find in their liturgy the shaping of their spirit. We have much to ponder: the words and gestures we make at prayer together, the texts of scripture, the writings of those who lived in this house of the church before us. This book explores these abundant sources in brief reflections that become dialogues with the reader. Gail Ramshaw unfolds a liturgical spirituality, standing with us - the not-yet-baptized and the long-since-baptized - beside our baptism font. It is a good place to be. For personal reflection or for group discussion, Gail Ramshaw's essays gather round them scripture texts, the wisdom of our tradition, provocative questions, and simple prayers.

Sidebar information lists the designer and foundry, the year of release and the different weights and styles available, while feature boxes explain the origins and best uses for each typeface, such as whether it is suitable for running text or as a display font for headlines.

About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.'

Book Politics and the English Language

Download or read book Politics and the English Language written by George Orwell and published by Renard Press Ltd. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Politics and the English Language, the second in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell takes aim at the language used in politics, which, he says, ‘is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind’. In an age where the language used in politics is constantly under the microscope, Orwell’s Politics and the English Language is just as relevant today, and gives the reader a vital understanding of the tactics at play. 'A writer who can – and must – be rediscovered with every age.' — Irish Times
