A hugely entertaining and revealing guide to the history of type that asks, What does your favorite font say about you?
Fonts surround us every day, on street signs and buildings, on movie posters and books, and on just about every product we buy. But where do fonts come from, and why do we need so many? Who is responsible for the staid practicality of Times New Roman, the cool anonymity of Arial, or the irritating levity of Comic Sans (and the movement to ban it)?
Typefaces are now 560 years old, but we barely knew their names until about twenty years ago when the pull-down font menus on our first computers made us all the gods of type. Beginning in the early days of Gutenberg and ending with the most adventurous digital fonts, Simon Garfield explores the rich history and subtle powers of type. He goes on to investigate a range of modern mysteries, including how Helvetica took over the world, what inspires the seeming ubiquitous use of Trajan on bad movie posters, and exactly why the all-type cover of Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus was so effective. It also examines why the "T" in the Beatles logo is longer than the other letters and how Gotham helped Barack Obama into the White House. A must-have book for the design conscious, Just My Type's cheeky irreverence will also charm everyone who loved Eats, Shoots & Leaves and Schott's Original Miscellany.
Simon Garfield is the author of twelve acclaimed books of nonfiction. He lives in London and St. Ives, Cornwall, and currently has a soft spot for Requiem Fine Roman and HT Gelateria.
Chip Kidd is associate art director for Alfred A. Knopf, where his jacket designs have revolutionized the art of American book packaging. He is the author of numerous books, including The Cheese Monkeys.
字体圈套路也好深,另外关于Caslon多讲一点好不好。最后总结篇为什么感觉作者切换逗逼模式开始浅浅的忧伤了?

评分「字谈字畅」播客推荐过的书。了解西文字体的入门读物。一个小亮点,是书中提到某字体名字时,都是用对应的字体打出来的。试想下,一个完全被Helvetica支配的世界,该有多无聊啊……
在《机械复制时代的艺术作品》中,本雅明提到,早在文字能够印刷之前,木刻技术已经实现了对版画等艺术作品的复制,而后石印术和摄影术又分别二度改变了文献和形象复制领域的面貌。里头最著名的一个论述是,当现代工业技术可以轻而易举地进行制模、影印、刷版等流程操作之后,...
评分每个人自有一个故事,承载着我们思想的文字的不例外。 《字体故事》给我印象最深刻的是里面的文字混用,是我看过的书里面最丰富的(毕竟是一本关于字体的书籍),在正文中使用与介绍的字体相同的字体,形象地描绘了该字体的式样,书的内容因此生动起来。让我感受到与之前看过...

评分在火车上,我看完了这本《字体故事—— 西文字体的美丽传奇》 书中介绍的很多字体,我闻所未闻,或者有些字体我见过却视如不见,毕竟,我接触西文字体的机会不多,偶尔用的字体无非只有Times New Roman和Arial(标示数字)而已,但通过阅读这本近400页的书籍,对于西方字体的发...
