![]() ![]() This type arose from humanism in the Italian Renaissance, which aimed at the revival of ancient Roman cultural styles. Roman type, meanwhile, accounts for 20% of all the types used in incunabula. A curvilinear version of "lettre bâtarde" came into use in Germany and Switzerland around 1480 and is called "Schwabacher." In the early 16th century, this type developed into a more expressive one called "Fraktur." Caxton, who introduced the art of printing to England, also used it most frequently of all the types. "Lettre bâtarde" was used for the 31-line Indulgence (1454-55), which is attributed by Gutenberg. This slightly slanted script was derived from the running style used for handwritten documents and is called " lettre bâtarde." It was widely used by scribes in the court of the Duchy of Burgundy, for which it is also called "lettre bourguignonne." As far as incunabula are concerned, French and English printers often used this script when they printed books and documents not in Latin but in their own language. "Lettre de somme" was used for Balbus's Catholicon, which is attributed to Gutenberg, and also for Duranti's Rationale diüinorum officiorum, which was printed by Fust and Schöffer in 1459. The script called "fere-humanistica," which Petrarch (1304-74) started to use imitating "Carolingian minuscule" is also included in this category. The rotunda type, mentioned earlier, is included in this category. Another category has a roundish face and is called " lettre de somme" because the Scholastics often used it in their writings. Also called " lettre de forme," it has sharp corners and was mainly employed for books used in churches. One is the textura type used in the 42-line Bible. Gothic type accounts for 80% of all the types used in incunabula and can be divided into three major categories. Gothic and Roman were two major types used for incunabula, while italic type came into use in the 16th century. The term "Gothic" came from the views of the Renaissance-period humanists who regarded the Gothic type as Goth (like the Goths, barbarous or uncouth) as compared to the Roman type (ancient Roman script). ![]() Hence, this period is now called the "Carolingian Renaissance." The "Carolingian minuscule" script is closer to those used in ancient Rome than the Gothic script therefore humanists in the 15th century attempted to revive it as a symbol of return to classical styles of ancient times. Ancient Roman classics were transcribed using this script, and educational reforms were also carried out to establish a system of the seven liberal arts. Before his reform, books and documents written in the "half-uncial" and "cursive" scripts had been so difficult to read that Alcuin instructed the scribes to use easy-to-read letters and punctuation methods when writing. This script was introduced in the process of reforms implemented by Alcuin ( c.730-804), the great scholar of York. Until these " Gothic" scripts appeared, the elegant script "Carolingian minuscule," which had been created at the end of the eighth century when Charlemagne, the founder of the Carolingian dynasty, reigned, had spread throughout Europe. Therefore, many pieces of type based on this "rotunda" script were produced. A similar sharp-cornered yet slightly more rounded script was created in Bologna, a northern Italian city, in the 12th century, and this was called "rotunda" and also used until the 15th century. This script became popular in Germany shortly after, and in the period of Gutenberg it was widely used for Bibles, liturgies and other books. It was so called because the entire page looked like textured patterns and because the letters were sharp-cornered. The script called "textura quadrata," which was used to print the 42-line Bible, is derived from the "protogothic" script, which originated in northern France around the 11th century. As a result, each printer used different fonts, and in incunabula studies, these fonts are used as evidence for identifying the specific printer. In those days, there were no craftsmen specialized in type casting, so printers had to create the punches themselves or purchase them, or purchased only the matrices to cast the type themselves. For this reason, the printers of incunabula used various typefaces depending on the manuscript based on which they made books. In medieval Europe, different scripts were used in manuscripts depending on the type of books or documents or on when and where the transcription was performed. ![]()

![]() ![]() Hershey's participation in the creation of the Thunderbird was more administrative than artistic. Boyer was the lead stylist on the original 1955 two-seater Thunderbird and also had input in the following series of Thunderbirds that included the 30th Anniversary Edition. The Thunderbird was similar in concept, but was more American in style, more luxurious, and less sport-oriented.Ĭredit for the development of the original Thunderbird is given to Lewis Crusoe, a former GM executive lured out of retirement by Henry Ford II George Walker, chief stylist and a Ford vice president Frank Hershey, chief stylist for the Ford Division Bill Boyer, designer for the Body Development Studio, who became the manager of the Thunderbird Studio in the spring of 1955 and Bill Burnett, chief engineer. The completed one-off generated interest at the time, but had meager power, European looks, and a correspondingly high cost, so it never proceeded to production. Development Ī smaller two-seater sports roadster was developed at the behest of Henry Ford II in 1953 called the Vega. Thunderbird production ended in 1997, then briefly resumed as a two-passenger, marketed from 2002 to 2005.įrom its introduction in 1955 to its final phaseout in 2005, Ford produced over 4.4 million Thunderbirds. ![]() Sales were good until the 1990s when large two-door coupes became unpopular. Succeeding generations became larger until the line was downsized in 1977, again in 1980, and once again in 1983. For 1958, the Thunderbird was redesigned with a second row of seats. Ford positioned the Thunderbird as an upscale model and it is credited in developing a new market segment, the personal luxury car. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, it was not marketed as a sports car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Introduced as a two-seat convertible, the Thunderbird was offered variously as a four-seat hardtop coupe, four-seat convertible, five-seat convertible and hardtop, four-door pillared hardtop sedan, six-passenger hardtop coupe, and five-passenger pillared coupe, with the final generation designed again as a two-seat convertible.įord targeted the two-seat Thunderbird as an upscale model, but the 1958 model year design introduced a rear seat and arguably marked the expansion of a market segment eventually known as personal luxury cars, positioned to emphasize comfort and convenience over handling and high-speed performance. The Ford Thunderbird (colloquially called the T-Bird) is a personal luxury car manufactured and marketed by Ford from model years 1955-2005 (with a 1997-2002 hiatus), across 11 generations.

By that time, Splash Mountain, whose budget had risen greatly to $75 million, had become one of the most expensive projects created by Walt Disney Imagineering. Construction began at Disneyland in April of that year. At the time of its unveiling, Disney officials stated they would not be expecting criticism for its Song of the South theming due to the ride only including the film's animated characters. Plans to build the ride were unveiled in January 1987. The character figures from America Sings were used in many scenes, though all of the Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, and Br'er Bear figures were specifically created for Splash Mountain. The name was later changed to Splash Mountain after then-CEO Michael Eisner's suggestion that the attraction be used to help market Walt Disney Studios' 1984 film Splash. While trying to solve the problems of including a log flume, bringing people into Bear Country and reusing the America Sings figures, Baxter thought of Song of the South.īaxter and his team developed the concept of Zip-a-Dee River Run, which would incorporate scenes from Song of the South. It was Dick Nunis (then-president of Walt Disney attractions) who insisted that the Imagineers create a log flume for Disneyland, but the Imagineers were initially unenthusiastic about it, feeling that log flumes were too ordinary a theme park attraction to include in a Disney park. He wanted to attract guests to the often-empty Bear Country land in Disneyland, with the only attraction as the Country Bear Jamboree (which later closed in 2001), plus a souvenir shop, and make use of the Audio-Animatronics figures from the Disneyland attraction America Sings, which was also poorly attended. Splash Mountain was originally conceived in the summer of 1983 by Imagineer Tony Baxter while stuck in rush-hour traffic on his way to work. ![]() Two differences in the attraction's plot compared to the film are the exclusion of the Uncle Remus character as a storytelling device (although he is replaced by Br'er Frog as a narrator) and changing Br'er Rabbit's method of capture from being stuck in tar to being stuck in a beehive. Br'er Rabbit resolves to remain at his longstanding home in the briar patch while the other animals rejoice at his return and Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear are last seen narrowly escaping the jaws of Br'er Gator. ![]() Br'er Fox then throws Br'er Rabbit into the briar patch (represented by the ride's flume drop) Br'er Rabbit escapes uninjured. Br'er Rabbit uses reverse psychology on Br'er Fox, begging him not to throw him into the briar patch (as described in " The Tar Baby"). Br'er Fox eventually catches Br’er Rabbit and threatens to eat him. Out of curiosity, his foes follow only for Br'er Rabbit to lead them into a cavern of bees. Br'er Rabbit continues on his journey to find his " laughing place". The sharp-witted Br'er Rabbit avoids a snare trap (as described in " Br'er Rabbit Earns a Dollar a Minute") and uses it to trap Br'er Bear instead. Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear, the antagonists of the story, are determined to catch him but are repeatedly tricked by Br'er Rabbit into letting him free. The two versions of the attraction feature similar stories, albeit with small differences, and tell the story of Br'er Rabbit, a mischievous character who leaves his home in search of adventure. The plot behind Splash Mountain is a composite of several Uncle Remus stories as taken from the animated segments of the film Song of the South. The new ride, which will be titled Tiana's Bayou Adventure, is scheduled to open at Disneyland and Magic Kingdom in late 2024. The Magic Kingdom version of Splash Mountain closed on January 23, 2023, while the Disneyland version closed on May 31, 2023. versions of the ride would be receiving a new theme based on Disney's 2009 film The Princess and the Frog. In June 2020, it was announced that the U.S. The ride experience begins with a peaceful outdoor float-through that leads to indoor dark ride segments, with a climactic steep drop into a "briar patch" followed by an indoor finale. The attraction is based on the animated sequences of the 1946 Disney film Song of the South. It was formerly located at Disneyland and Magic Kingdom.

What are the laundry room must-haves? What is a great way to create a laundry room that is functional and something to show off? So, as these laundry rooms have become a fundamental part of the home esthetics and are more often than not a room that is seen, people are decorating these rooms differently. For some homes, the laundry area is the most common entrance and exit. Heck, they even have some chic new names for the laundry area now, like "the all-purpose room," "the utility portal" (I kid you not!), "mudroom dropzone," or my favorite, "the multi-functional utility and organizational space".įor me, it is just the plain ol' laundry room, but whatever you call it, the laundry area is now often situated adjacent to high-traffic entry areas like garages, kitchens, back doors, or side doors. So, yeah, the laundry room has hit the big time and become an important design feature of many modern homes.
