A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book is a part of the 2nd Edition – the book project. 2nd Edition project is an idea to redesign and republish selected books from 16th–19th centuries that have not been re-edited since their first edition. Libraries around the world are systematically making digital archives of all the books ever written. Thanks to creating open cultural resources, we now have a common and free access to various and unique artistic works. Long-forgotten masterpieces gain new life and new audiences. 2nd Edition projects’ books tell stories about ordinary, timeless every-day occurrences. At the same time, due to their archaic style, they gain new fun meaning, becoming an excellent entertainment for the reader. Visually, 2nd Edition is an attempt to create a unique graphic form, recognising, and combining traditional and contemporary approach to design and typography. The Project is a design study of the importance of classical typesetting methods and modern approach to design. It’s a visual compromise showing how both ancient and contemporary design approach can coexist beautifully. Inspiration for creating these books came from the initiative of the Public Knowledge Foundation. Its’ website, www.publicdomainreview.org, showcases miscellaneous public domain works selected by curators. Books chosen for the project came from that particular collection. 2nd Edition books are created using the OCR method (Optical Character Recognition) through which the scans of all the book’s pages are converted into text files. Unfortunately, the process is still far from perfect, and the files contain numerous spelling mistakes, some of which cannot be corrected automatically. Crafting each book is an arduous and time consuming task, and I kindly ask readers for their understanding and lenience when and if spelling errors are encountered. All books are already out of copyright and are accessible as public domain.
