A classic work.,
By
This review is from: Lessons in Formal Writing (Paperback)
When Johnston died in 1944, much of what became this book was in scattered manuscript form and subsequently edited by Heather Child and Justin Howes and first printed in 1985. They brought the work together and provided illustrations -- from his class notes and lectures -- demonstrating Johnston's theories of writing. Included are tributes and appreciations, essays, lectures, writings, etc.
Of Johnson's writing, Evelyn Waugh said; "The sweep and precision of his strokes were as virile as a bullfighter's and left me speechless." Well researched and illustrated, this is a classic work about one of the foremost and most influential teachers of calligraphy. |
