Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. New Subediting gives a detailed account of modern editing and production techniques. Its aim is both to help the young subeditor and to spell out to the newcomer to newspaper journalism what happens between the writing of news stories and features and their appearance in the newspaper when it comes off the press. In this age of technological change the quality of the subbing has never been more important to a successful newspaper. The careful use of typography, pictures, graphics and compelling headlines and the skillful handling of text coupled with good page planning, all help to give character,style and readability. This book examines, and draws lessons from, work in contemporary newspapers in editing and presentation; it defines the varied techniques of copytasting, of editing news stories and features, of styles of headline writing and the use of typography to guide and draw the attention of the reader. It takes into account developments in the use of English as a vehicle of mass communication in two important chapters on structure and word use; and it shows how to get the best out of the electronic tools now available to subeditors. It also reminds journalisis that, however advanced the tools, a newspaper is only as good as the creative skills of those that write, edit and put it together.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This is a style guide for making decisions about layout and typography. Drawing on a variety of sources, old and new, it presents an overview and analysis of two fundamentally different typographic approaches - the traditional style that evolved over centuries from the Renaissance book, and the modern style that reflects the German-Swiss philosophy of this century. Each style is a reflection of a particular philosophy; each has its own structure and its own set of procedures, priorities and rules. Each section of the book is a model of the style it presents and includes numerous examples, old and new. The book comes with two supplemental materials - a 48-page workbook provides exercises, samples, and specifications for reproducing page samples, grids, and layouts; an 800K disk contains layout templates for traditional and modern formats. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Shortlisted for the Anglo-Hellenic League Runciman Award 2024 Shortlisted for the John Pollard Poetry Prize 2024 A The Telegraph Book of the Year The Telegraph Poetry Book of the Month August 2023 The Grid is about the end of worlds, ancient and modern. In three sequences of poems interspersed with Mandel's own translations from classical texts, figures of obsession and loneliness try to decrypt what Maurice Blanchot called 'the writing of the disaster'. Like a detective novel, the title sequence pieces together archival fragments into a lyric essay about Alice Kober, the half-forgotten scholar behind the decipherment of the ancient writing system called Linear B. Across different wartimes, Mandel adapts the typography and formatting of archived papers, their overlaps and errors and aporias, which compel readers to invest creatively in the very act of reading, learning new ways into language as they go. The leaps between past and present work in dialogue like a series of exhilarating stepping stones. This is a collection of what, though sometimes written as prose, turn out to be poems. From Ovid's bitter letters of exile to the prime minister's letters of instruction to nuclear submarine captains, The Grid tells a series of stories about four thousand years of apocalypse. Strange, humane, and deeply rooted in the ancient world, Mandel's first book surveys the ruins of the West with no nostalgia. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zustand: Sehr gut. 396 S. + CDR Sehr gut - Schöner Designreader mit Texten in Deutsch und Englisch - Project BASTARD Choose my Identity. Tell me who I am and give me a face. In it you will find facets of me, but also see a reflection of yourself. The idea behind BASTARD was to bring together photographers, writers, illustrators, graphic designers, musicians and typographers to create a solid and unique book that also functions as a work of art. The profoundly personal impressions of the authors and artists have become intertwined and their distinct and individual visions have served to shed light on our modern culture -- on daily life, on the themes of change and continuity, and on the pervasive branding that is all around us. We must define who we are, be able to form both national and personal identities for ourselves, and in this journey we may come to see that globalization is not a completely negative force. Instead, the trend and phenomenon of globalization offers us proof that we are living in an era as exciting as one could imagine. What happens when all of the disparate places and faces of the world "shrink" into a global village? What happens when cultures begin to merge and traditions start to dissolve? Searching to define cultural identity and cultural bastarding, Christian Ernst, Lars Harmsen and André Rösler traveled to various hot spots highlighting the globalization trend. Writers with personal histories of emigration contributed their stories and poems. This book has been published with more than 50 unique typefaces, which have been created by typographers from all over the word. An engaging musical soundtrack is also included, as well as 50 high-resolution images, which serve to visually and aurally complement the book's ideas. Fonts: We take a special interest in typography, and have discovered that there are less new fonts designed nowadays, but they still play a big role: sampling, crossing and mixing. They are a form of expression. New fonts have been created by several designers: Peter Brugger, Stefan Claudius, Escobas, René Verkaart, Sirkka Hammer, Martina Hartmann, Sandra Hofacker, Paul Hoppe, David Hubner, Boris Kahl, Matthias Kantereit, Ingo Krepinsky, Heinrich Lischka, Michel M., Thomas Mettendorf, Christoph Rankers, Dan Reynolds, Henry Roussier, Christoph Seiler All of these fonts are available on the DVD accompanying the book. -- Content: Ruediger John INTRODUCTION-- DESIGN / ILLUSTRATION / PHOTOGRAPHY -- IDENTITY -- EVERY DAY -- RIDE -- PLAY -- BRANDING -- HOME -- RELIGION -- TALK -- PROSE / POEMS -- Selim Özdogan LOST WITHOUT STORIES OHNE GESCHICHTEN AUFGESCHMISSEN-- Làszlò Csiba POEMS GEDICHTE -- Sudabeh Mohafez STONE QUARRY STEINBRUCH-- Ilija Marinow Trojanow CLONING GODS, READING BAR CODES POEMS -- José F A Oliver HE-MOON AND SHE-MOON GEDICHTE -- Làszlò Csiba PENCIL AND PAPER BLEISTIFT UND PAPIER -- Radek Knapp THE LOVE OF SLOWNESS DIE LIEBE ZUR LANGSAMKEIT -- ISBN 9788496540156 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1550 Mit zahlr. auch farb.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Typography, the art of designing printed words, was once the domain of an elite few artists but has become an area with which millions of people engage daily. The widespread usage of digital devices from laptops to tablets and smart phones which are used for written communications means that we are regularly asked to make decisions about the fonts, sizes, and layouts we use in our writing. This broadening engagement with the field of typography has led to a perceptible shift from debates about legibility and technicalities to conversations about which fonts best reflect the writer's personality or style .In this Very Short Introduction, Paul Luna offers a broad definition of typography as design for reading, whether in print or on screens, where a set of visual choices are taken to make a written message more accessible, more easily transmitted, more significant, or more attractive. Considering the development of letterforms and the shapes of letter we use, Luna discusses the history behind our modern day letters and fonts, before considering the issues behind key typographic decisions, and the differences between printed and on-screen typography. Presenting any piece of typography as a fundamental design choice, Luna introduces the options available today, and explores the reasons why key typographic decisions are made.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Linguistik, einseitig bedruckt, Note: 2,0, Europa-Universität Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder), Veranstaltung: Sprachgebrauch , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Neue Technologien haben Auswirkungen nicht nur auf lokale Sprach- und Kommunikationsgemeinschaften, sondern auch auf globale Kommunikationszusammenhänge. Die digitale Revolution ist nicht die erste im Hinblick auf mediale Kommunikationstechnologien. Die Entwicklung der Schrift, die skriptographische Revolution, die Erfindung des Buchdrucks, die Typographie, die Phonographie, die Kinematographie. - diese oben genannte Erfindungen bilden entscheidende Etappen im Hinblick auf massenmediale Kommunikationsformen. Heutzutage ist das Internet in den modernen Gesellschaften eine nicht mehr wegzudenkende Kommunikationstechnologie, die als Voraussetzung für die Erzeugung von Informationen und materiellen Produkten ebenso relevant ist, wie sie das Alltagsleben vielen Menschen und deren Kommunikationsverhalten beeinflusst. Wie zeigen die Statistiken, 57% der 25- bis 34-Jährigen gehen länger als 2 Stunden pro Woche ins Internet, wobei das Chatten (16%) eine bedeutsame Rolle spielt . Der Chat, der eine Form der Konversation bildet , charakterisiert sich dadurch, dass die Alltagsgespräche den zentralen Ort bilden, an dem Sprache gebraucht wird. Das bildet für Jürgen Streeck eine Voraussetzung für alle anderen Sprachgebrauchszusammenhänge oder Sprach Austausch - Systeme (STREECK 1983: 74). Der Chat kann zählt zu den jüngeren Erscheinungen und es bestehen relativ wenige Forschungen zu dem Thema. Als eine Konversationsform kann man sie mit den älteren Forschungen vergleichen, in der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde die Konversationsanalyse nach Streck ausgewählt, die aber nur teilweise die These der Arbeit bestätigen kann, weil sie sich nur auf mündliche Kommunikation beruft. Aus diesem Grunde bedient sich der Aufsatz auch mit der Textsystematik nach Linke/Nußbaumer. Streck konzentriert sich auf technischen Aspekten, was bei dem Chat von großer Relevanz ist: Die technische und organisatorische Basis erklärt besser den Sprachgebrauch, weil dabei auch die Phänomene der Interaktivität und Interaktion einbezogen werden. As statistics show, 57% of young adults spend more than 2 hours a week using electronic communication. It is obvious that new technologies influence communiqué. The digital revolution, concerning development of writing, cryptology, printing, typography, photography, cinematography etc., is not the first one regarding media communication turns. Nowadays in modern societies the Internet generates trends. .].

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This early work by William Morris was originally published in 1899 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. William Morris (1834 - 1896) was born in London, England. Arguably best known as a textile designer, he founded a design partnership which deeply influenced the decoration of churches and homes during the early 20th century. However, he is also considered an important Romantic writer and pioneer of the modern fantasy genre, being a direct influence on authors such as J. R. R. Tolkien. As well as fiction, Morris penned poetry and essays.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In recent years, woodcut illustrations have found renewed popularity with graphic artists, designers, illustrators, and craftspeople. Their diversity, crisp black-and-white lines, and adaptability to typography and a wide range of other projects make them an ideal source for a limitless array of craft and design ideas. Now Jim Harter, noted collagist, has compiled a comprehensive sourcebook of 19th-century woodcuts depicting men. Similar in format to his popular previous collection, Women (Dover 0-486-23703-6), the present volume contains over 400 carefully selected illustrations of men in an enormous variety of poses, costumes, attitudes, and activities: playing baseball, dancing, roping steers, mining coal, playing chess, hunting, flirting, courting, wrestling, shoveling, running, reading, talking, praying, thinking, gesturing, fencing, and more. Spanning a variety of geographical locations and historical periods, these delightfully old-fashioned renderings depict Eskimos in kayaks, medieval knights, Roman gladiators, magicians, firemen, soldiers, miners, beggars, fops, dandies, Prussian generals, shepherds, artists, acrobats, bullfighters, doctors, mythological and religious figures (Laocoon, Buddha, Moses, etc.), monks, prisoners, and more, representing nearly every masculine occupation and activity imaginable. The material in this book has been chosen to reflect the diversity of the subject, to illustrate the variety of styles of wood engraving, and to be of maximum use to artists and designers. Reproduced from such periodicals as Illustrated London News, La Nature, Leslie's, and Harper's, these engravings will solve a great many illustration problems at a very low cost. All 412 illustrations are in line and immediately usable; many have been silhouetted by Mr. Harter to increase their usefulness. This is an unusually comprehensive and helpful sourcebook that belongs in the working library of every modern artist or illustrator. Original Dover (1980) publication.
