\ifcase\whichtext It isn't easy to explain what attracts some people to letterforms with such joy and fury. Most people can't tell typing from printing and the latest figures on illiteracy suggest that we should be grateful, while we can, that they can read at all. In comparison to the details of such other callings as, say, keeping rabbits, small particulars of the alphabet can easily become an obsession. I often think of Thomas Codben-Sanderson, a remarkable man and a bookbinder of distinction, as he stood on Hammersmith Bridge in the dark, throwing the printing type of the Doves Press into the Thames. This was a crime of passion and has a comical side that the decades often give to such things. But I can see him, heart pounding, full of earnest purpose, as he puts his beloved type to rest. He was not about to wonder, as the song wonders about the lady, who might be kissing her now. I could name a few things I'd like to throw into the Thames myself in the shadow of the night. But my reasons would not be as pure has his. My motive wouldn't be love. \or Lettering people disagree over everything. They argue about the very purpose of the alphabet, which is as good a point for a fight as any. Some people say that letters exist to be read and therefore the things that interfere with legibility should be discouraged. (This is a bit like saying that the purpose of liquor is to get you drunk. If they were right, people would swig metal polish, and the farmers of Cognac, Burgundy and Champagne grow potatoes.) The alphabet, the argument goes, should be a well-mannered servant who quietly carries messages from author to reader. This is sometimes true: it is just what we need in a telephone directory. Fortunately, the world still has some other uses for letters as well. We celebrate the alphabet for other reasons than legibility. We enjoy all the passions and the fury and could hardly have more fun without breaking the furniture. \or The alphabet as a style for every need. For dignity, the style of Roman inscriptions is unsurpassed. To attempt the limits of human skill, people have decorated letters almost beyond recognition in some of the world's greatest manuscript books. More than a code for text, the alphabet has developed throught the centuries into a splendid medium of expression. Even the greeting card with pink pigs from your friend Henry had a printed message that was made to look silly expressly to match his sense of humour. I think it's marvellous and I don't think any permanent damage was done to our heritage. As long as people seem to like letters made of soap bubbles, the world can't be all bad. A few colleagues of mine have been driven to despair over some lovely letters with snow on top that are used in winter advertising. These things disd not come about by accident. No designer consciously decided to forfeit his reputation and go down in history wearing a fool's cap. They were made because people wanted them and it is because people still do that they are used every year as the waether gets cold. \or Even if we agree that expression is a part of the alphabet, and agree again that it sometimes comes before legibility, we still have many things to disagree over. One thing that divides people is apprach. They ask what kind of lettering is permissible in polite society. What kind of expression can the common man be trusted with? One view, especially liked by amateurs, is that the only legitimate way of using the alphabet for expression is to imitate medieval methods. This means that you should write with a feather. You should work on vellum if you can afford it, on hand-made paper if not (even if it only differs comparably from machine-made paper in the direction of the fibres). You should approach the job with reverence and possibly make your own ink. All this is said to be justified by regarding writing, illuminating, and lettering as medieval crafts. \null\hfill Gunnlaugur S. E.
