burke, christopher:
Active Literature: Jan Tschichold and New Typography
Hyphen Press, London 2007. 335 pp. 4:o (27,5 x 21 cm). Hardback. 700 colour pictures. The central part of the book is made up of three chapters. First, a description of Tschichold’s typography in the years 1925–33, with a depiction of his extensive contacts with avant-garde designers across Europe. After this, an interlude describes Tschichold’s detention in 1933 by the Nazis. The second long chapter discusses Tschichold’s engagement in his modernist period with letterforms as such (calligraphy, typefaces) and his book-design work. The last chapter looks at Tschichold after his emigration to Switzerland: his ‘serene modernism’ and turn to traditionalist design. The book is prefaced with a short essay by Robin Kinross, discussing Tschichold’s present reputation. It is rounded off with a selection of key texts by Tschichold (in English translation for the first time), a bibliography, and index. In the first book on Tschichold to be based on extensive archive research, Burke turns fresh and revealing light on his subject. He sets Tschichold in the network of artists and designers who constituted New Typography in its moment of definition and exploration, and puts new emphasis on Tschichold as an activist collector, editor and writer. Tschichold’s work is shown in colour throughout, in freshly made photographs of examples drawn from public and private collections. This is not a biography, but rather a discussion of the work seen in the context of Tschichold’s life and the times in which he lived.

Jan Tschichold, Designer. The Penguin Years
Lund Humphries, London 2006. 240 pages. 249 x 200mm). Hardback with dust jacket. Includes 65 colour and 45 b&w illustrations. (ISBN: 0 85331 946 4).Shortly after the end of the Second World War, and following the success of its paperback rebranding, Penguin Books made the bold decision to completely redesign its publications. Their subsequent choice of designer would not only lead to the consolidation of an iconic brand but also a revolution in typographic conventions.By the time Jan Tschichold (1902-1974) arrived at Penguin Books in 1947, he had already established himself as an innovative and highly talented typographer and graphic designer. His previous prolific design experience helped him tackle the Herculean task presented to him: to create a uniform design that could be applied to mass production. The resulting Penguin Composition Rules and King Penguin standard grids represent one aspect of the typographic revolution that Tschichold masterminded at the publishing house.Examining for the first time Tschichold´s innovative design practices at Penguin, this book offers a detailed account of the development of an iconic brand. Including over 100 reproductions plus texts written by Tschichold that discuss the Penguin redesign specifically, Jan Tschichold, Designer: The Penguin Years is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of twentieth-century graphic design.
