They walked us through the module outline and showed us examples of previous students' portfolios. We would be mainly delving into the world of calligraphy and type. Our first task was to get together into groups and research a particular calligraphic hand. My group chose Gothic textura quadrata. A classical, 13th century Black Letter font developed in Germania, mainly used for inscriptions and stained glass. Lecture 2: Calligraphy For the first 2 hours of the session, we were given a run down over what typography is. Typography is essentially the style and appearance of printer matter. It can be used to deliver me...
