archive.org : Arrighi's Operina
« on: April 02, 2014, 06:04:17 AM »
Prompted by sisterofdream's recent post, here's a definitive work for anyone with an interest in Italic and cancellarescha:

La operina di Ludouico Vicentino, da imparare di scriuere littera cancellarescha (1524)

Read online or download.  It's not my style, but the book is a delight.

Three more from the Renaissance:

Libro di M. Giovambattista Palatino ...

Ugo da Carpi: Thesavro de scrittori ...

Boissens: Grammato Graphices

All manner of strangeness in the later parts of the first two!
