Burke in print
SHARE
The New Year has passed in a busy manner. The effects are already there: the first, ready contributions Two Letters Addressed to a Member of the Present Parliament, on the Proposals for Peace with the Regicide Directory of France by Edmund Burke are now complete. The book has been set in the Bell typeface, more appropriate to the period than the originally planned Bodoni. It is an electronic version of the types cut around 1787 by Richard Austin for the British publisher John Bell and his British Letter Foundry.
