Description:This book is a facsimile and translation of the first handwriting manual of the Chancery hand, written by Ludovico degli Arrighi in the sixteenth century, and still widely considered the best model and means toward a handwriting reform. It has both an historical and practical interest, for Arrighi's instructions on the formation of letters and the technique of writing the Chancery hand are of importance to students of calligraphy as well as to those who desire to improve their handwriting. John Howard Benson, calligrapher, stonecutter, and lecturer, has written the translation, the first ever published, in a hand based on the original, and has supplied notes and an introduction to make this a useful contemporary writing book.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
