Abstract

KHOURI, Magda Guimarães. The trace of the word. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2009, vol.32, n.48, pp. 50-59. ISSN 0101-3106.

Starting from a dream, the author begins a journey about the graphic fonts as a mark of subjectivity of some periods of History. The graphic design of the font is considered as one of the human marks, a frame of communication that is in front of us all the time, even when we do not notice its secret charm. As if they were the footprints of the word, they print themselves in our memory.

Keywords : Form; Trace; Trail; Dream; Graphic font; Mnemonic aspect.
