Essay about a typographic designer

Posted: April 11th, 2022

This essay must place your designer and the typeface that they designed in the context of the period in which they lived and designed. Thus, although some biographical information will be necessary, your paper will not be a simple biographical essay on your designer. Instead, you will need to research what was happening historically during the time period and how these events, inventions, etc. might have influenced not only the designer’s philosophy but also the final form of the typeface. You will need to reference both historical and art historical issues. —Historical: your essay should include a combination of no less than two issues from the following sub-categories: the political climate, social climate, economic climate, religious climate, philosophical climate, scientific, military, or literary achievements. —Art Historical: your essay should include a combination of no less than two issues from the following sub-categories: painting, drawing, graphic art, sculpture, architecture, music, drama, theatre, dance, or fashion.

It needs help with structure, clarity, and grammar.
