Drawing on Type

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Drawing on Type is the life-story of one of Canada’s more colourful book-world characters -- Frank Newfeld, designer, illustrator and storyteller extraordinaire. It is a wide-ranging account, beginning with Newfeld’s youth in England during the Second World War and leading to his involvement in the book trade in Canada. Eventually becoming Art Director, and subsequently, Vice-President of Publishing at McClelland & Stewart, he went on to co-found the Society of Typographic Designers of Canada (now the Graphic Designers of Canada), and to run the illustration program at Sheridan College. Newfeld pulls no punches: he is critical of a college system that infantalizes its students; of childrens’-book illustrators that insult young readers’ intelligence; of authors, artists, designers and editors who condescend to their collaborators. Yet he is as unflinching in his evaluations of himself as he is in his evaluations of others, for Drawing on Type is also a reckoning of self.

Creatures

An Alphabet for Adults and Worldly Children

By: Frank Newfeld

Alphabet books, especially when they are wordless and in picturebook format, are appropriately associated with young children, pre-readers in particular. But Newfeld, via his subtitle, clearly alerts potential purchasers - teachers, librarians and parents - that this is an alphabet book which is intended for an entirely different and more sophisticated audience. Using an alphabet he created especially for this book, Newfeld challenges his "readers" to identify the creatures and items found in his illustrations that are connected to the target letter which is presented only in upper case. For example, "B," a double-page spread, offers up 33 butterflies for specific identification plus two "'B' creatures" in a hot-air balloon. In other cases, the puzzle is a bit more obtuse. Some viewers may not, for example, immediately realize that "F" provides an entire alphabet of fish from "Angelfish" to "Zu Cristatus." For those unsuccessful in playing the identification game, a two-page "key" concludes the volume. Neufeld's illustration media run the gamut, including scratchboard, watercolour and pen and ink. Right from the amazing endpapers which initially offer 25 letters of the alphabet and conclude with 24 versions of "Z," the book is a visual feast, rich in colour and images.

The Apprenticeship Writings of Frank Norris, 1896-1898

By: Frank Norris

Frank Norris (1870-1902) has long been recognized by cultural historians as a "touchstone" figure, clearly signaling in 1899 the emergence of an Amer. school of Literary Naturalism. "McTeague: A Story of San Francisco" secured this honor for him that year as it registered more fully than any previous Amer. novel the Darwinian view of life that is the essential characteristic of all subsequent Naturalistic fictions. It thus marked as well the rejection of the Victorian Era's habitually idealistic representations of human nature and its basically religious world-view, offering instead a post-metaphysical portrait of the human condition that has remained popular in 20th-cent. literary and intellectual circles. Includes all of the known writings of Norris published between 11 April 1896 and 1897. Illus.
