安修爾體(Uncial) 是流行於4~8世紀的字體，常見於當時的手抄本，最古老的三本手抄聖經都是使用安修爾體書寫而成。這時期只有大寫，小寫還沒發明出來唷！它簡單易學，古樸優美，適合作為新手入門練手！

影響了三代書法家的「現代書法之父」Edward Johnston，在他的著作中盛讚安修爾體「比羅馬體寫起來更快、比俗大寫體更清晰易讀，筆畫圓潤、精簡又獨特」，是他早期常給學生入門練手的字體！

現在你也可以自己列印出來練習囉！

麥克筆使用方便、顏色選擇多、對紙張要求較低、價格便宜，適合新手嚐鮮：

推薦！吳竹ZIG雙頭平頭麥克筆 (ZIG Calligraphy Marker MS-3500)

施德樓雙平頭書法筆 (Staedtler Calligraphy markers MS3005)

Beating Markers 雙頭馬克筆 (Beating Markers twin Markers)

內田雙頭平角細字麥克筆 (Marvy Uchida calligraphy markers)

▼其他的藝術鋼筆、沾水筆，請確認筆尖寬度和方塊一樣高(3.5mm)

有出筆尖尺寸為3.5mm的沾水筆尖品牌型號：

Speedball C-1 (也有左撇子款)

William Mitchell Round Hand 3.5 （也有左撇子款）

若你的鋼筆、沾水筆尺寸和格線紙不同，你需要自行放大縮小，你的筆的寬度=黑色方塊的高度，才能寫出正確比例的字。

鋼筆、沾水筆對於墨水和紙張的要求比較高，如果紙和墨沒搭配好，寫出來的字就會長毛暈開，加上沾水筆對於初次接觸英文書法的新手來說，門檻比較高，不過它們的優點就在於能寫出墨韻優美、線條犀利的字，能讓作品更有質感，因此書法家們多以此書寫正式作品。

▼書寫時筆尖要保持45度角，也就是寫出來的線條必須頭尾都是45度。

hamsa

image. hamsa amulet—ancient symbol predating monotheism, but occurring variously in levantine religions; providing protection from the evil eye. i discovered this interesting example in a columbian jewelry boutique: has embedded a miniature saint benedict medal face. the face is a reduced copy of the 1880 design by the monk desiderius lenz, which was minted for the occasion of st benedict’s 1400th birthday—the original medal predates to unremembered date.

legend. on the medal obverse is displayed a cross with five initialisms of exorcistic formulae: across each cross bar, one spanning quadrants, & two around the perimeter. V R S—the most familiar formula: vade retro satana — get back satan! st benedict (benedictus nursiae) was born in 480, thus i’ve written the legend in uncial of the period [cf. bernhard bischoff, Paläographie des römischen Altertums und des abendländischen Mittelalters, erich schmidt verlag, berlin, 1979, p87].

Didn't get this song for many years, but it clicked recently. Karen O is such an icon.

Anyway, shout out to the public library, and the awesome calligraphy book I checked out a few weeks ago!

It’s Fine Press Friday!

Last week we presented a Limited Editions Club production of Gustave Flaubert’s The Temptation of Saint Anthony, translated by Lafcadio Hearn. This week we present the same text, but as presented by Lewis and Dorothy Allen, long-time proprietors of the Allen Press in Kentfield, California, in their 1974 publication printed in an edition of 140 copies. The imagery is from various world cultures, and the Allens use their favored handset Menhart Unciala for the text and Solemnis for display, printed damp on mould-made French rag paper using their classic 1846 Columbian handpress. The Allens hand-bound the edition in a binding cloth using a 15th-century Persian motif  hand-blocked in Venice, Italy at the Fortuny Fabrics shop. 

Our copy of is yet another donation from our friend Jerry Buff.
