Paperback. Zustand: Good. Literary Nonfiction. Poetry History & Criticism. Typography. Foreword by Jenni Quilter. Of Loney's long-anticipated collection of essays, Johanna Drucker has written: Few people have mused with such imagination on the topic of the book as Alan Loney does in this volume. His reflections distill a lifetime of practice and reading, of knowing books and living with and around them. His thoughts about libraries, writing, texts, the codex, printed books, the artist's book, fine press traditions, and bibliography are at once philosophical and poetical. Though writing in the tradition of Mallarm , Jab s and Blanchot, Loney's sensibility is contemporary and original, informed by his practice as a printer and a profound engagement with books as expressive objects and objects of contemplation. I predict that this thoughtful, provocative, book will become a crucial reading on the codex. Loney's writing is wonderfully suggestive, but clear, fresh, and precise. He addresses issues much debated but rarely articulated so well and with such a skillful ability to open up the field for investigation and discussion.…

Melbourne : Electio Editions, 2012. Octavo, publisher's Ruscombe grey paper over boards in navy cloth-covered slipcase, 28 pp., with numerous illustrations; internally pristine, a fine copy.Signed and numbered by the poet. Number 35 of 45 copies. "This book derives from putting two small obsessions together and seeing what happens. The first is with the typographical wonder of Hendrik Werkman, 1882 - 1945, and his remarkable periodical 'The Next call', printed in nine issues from 1923 to 1926. Each issue was 8 pages long, in approximately 40 copies, and designed & printed entirely from the materials of his print shop in Groningen, Holland (seeH N Werkmanby Alsoton W Purvis, Yale University Press, 2004). My second obsession is the imaginary exhibition outlined by Arthur C Danto in his now famous bookThe transfiguration of the commonplace(Harvard University Press 1981) where he poses a thorny set of intellectual problems around the question of the wording one attaches to paintings. Simply, Danto's exhibition was a series of red rectangles, all looking the same, but all painted by different artists, and each with a different title. This apparently simple proposition created for Danto one of the knottiest philosophical speculations in contemporary criticism. My book is designed to honor both these men, the material printer who said 'I produce designs during the courses of printing', and the intellectual who wrote 'I am speaking as a philosopher, construing the gesture as a philosophical act'. The pages of the 'exhibition' appear on the rectos only. The texts on the versos are constructed solely from all the Dutch words that in their spelling are also English words in Werkman's texts thru out the nine issues of 'The next call." - Alan Loney Alan Loney is a noted writer, poet, publisher and printer.

Melbourne : Electio Editions, 2011. Octavo, publisher's paper wrapper, simple stab binding, housed in a yellow cloth covered folding clamshell box, 24 pp., with numerous illustrations; internally pristine, a fine copy. Number 7 of 40 copies. Poetry by Marion May Campbell, with drawings by Miriam Morris. "Electio Editions is delighted to present the second book in its alphabeta series. if not in paint traces not only a series of ecstatic moments, a kind of 'alongside' the occasion of writing, but exhibits its response to the commission of writing for Electio. Altho Marion May Campbell is better known as a novelist, the poetry in her recent book Fragments from a paper witch shows her as a poet of brilliance, sensitivity and skill. For this book Miriam Morris contributes two original pen & acrylic drawings, each one unique in each copy." - Alan Loney Alan Loney is a noted writer, poet, publisher and printer.

The Alphabeta series is a set of books of poems, each of a set number of pages, that the printer has offered to various poets he wishes to print.
