AGUILAR, Gonzalo. Typography and the crack. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2009, vol.32, n.48, pp. 44-49. ISSN 0101-3106.

In this paper printing type is considered as a way of questioning the separation between rationality and madness, according to Michel Foucault’s proposal in his History of madness in classical times. Starting from a series of examples and counter-examples (cubism, Bauhaus, Renaissance Annunciations), the purpose is to show how typography implies the thought of materiality which does not allow itself to be reduced to any kind of idealism.
