Annotated Bibliography of Puerto Rican Bibliographies

NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. Fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. 1990. First Edition. Author index. Title index. Subject index. Bound in the original blue cloth stamped in silver over black panels on the spine and front cover. From the publisher "The inaugural volume in Greenwood's series of Bibliographies and Indexes in Ethnic Studies this up-to-date bibliography of bibliographies - the most basic reference tool in any field of learning - provides references to and information on: all significant bibliographies compiled on Puerto Rico in general specific topics or individuals and Puerto Ricans in the United States. It is a compilation of the ample yet scattered harvest of books journals newspapers government documents pamphlets theses dissertations and other publications reflecting the island's literary and intellectual history as written by Puerto Ricans or by others writing about Puerto Rico and its people. Compiler Fay Fowlie-Flores has updated previously published references by including many recent works that have for decades remained dispersed among mimeographed lists government publications and books published by research institutions and commercial publishers among others. Both Spanish and English-language bibliographies and bibliographic essays have been included and a few references to important works written in other languages are also cited. The time period of the works covered ranges from 1887 to 1988 with references to a few items published in 1989. With several exceptions for very specialized fields works cited have at least 10 items. The introduction provides a thorough and fact-filled overview of the history and present status of Puerto Rican bibliographies. Three main sections containing alphabetically arranged entries focus on Puerto Rico in general; special topics; and Puerto Ricans in the U.S. Seventeen special topics arranged alphabetically by subject address diverse areas of the culture including art and music economics folklore medicine politics women and more. The annotation at each entry clarifies the subject matter and organization of the work as well as the authority of the compiler and often reflects the importance or complexity of the item. All sources cited in the volume were carefully examined for references to additional bibliographies. Three indexes facilitate access to all references by a particular author or title or to a specific topic. This exhaustive reference work will be an invaluable tool for scholars educators librarians government officials students and interested laypersons.". First Edition. Hardcover. New/No jacket as issued. 8vo. xxvi 169pp. Great Packaging Fast Shipping. Greenwood Press Hardcover

Tracy, Walter
Letters of Credit : A View of Type Design
Boston Massachusetts: David R. Godine 1986. Appear unread. Fine condition in a bright and shiny Fine dust jacket partially price clipped. NO chips. NO tears. NO creases. NO rubbing. NO fading. Protected by a removable mylar clear-plastic sleeve. Sharp corners. Hinges are perfect. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. Pages are fresh and crisp - probably never read. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. 1986. First U. S. Edition. Bibliography. Index. Bound in the original gilt-stamped blue cloth. From the dust jacket: "The revolution in typesetting -- a revolution that over the past two decades has eliminated a five-hundred-year-old system of hot metal production and replaced it with one of photo-generated and computer-driven composition -- shows no sign of winding down. This book more than any other we have read traces the steps that went into that revolution and simultaneously makes the argument that the letter forms themselves whether used in film computer or hot metal composition are always in a process of evolution. Tracy argues that whether they are of the sixteenth or the twentieth century the forms that comprise our alphabet are subject to the same rules of good taste proportion and clarity that have always obtained. But what we face today is vastly different from fifty years ago. For the first time new technology has made the proliferation and not a few would maintain the debasement of letter forms fast and easy or quick and dirty. With fifty years of professional experience on both sides of the Atlantic including thirty years as head of type design for the British Linotype Company Tracy is in a unique position to make this argument and reach his sad conclusion: the good designs of contemporary typefaces are far outnumbered by the mediocre and downright bad. Part of the reason for this deplorable deterioration is a lack of critical analysis of the particular esthetics involved. This step-by-step examination of type-design esthetics is precisely what Tracy provides here while avoiding both the promoter's hype and the manufacturer's claims. Here are the gut issues of what makes type good or bad legible or unreadable. Extensively illustrated with both typefaces and line drawings this book belongs on the shelf of anyone interested in the history of letters or in the artistry and peculiar problems that lie behind their production." 7" wide by 10" tall. First U. S. Edition so stated. Hardcover. Fine condition/Fine dust jacket. 223pp. Great Packaging Fast Shipping. David R. Godine Hardcover
