While proofreading, I observed 2 distinct ways #Typography is realised in the 1674 #EthicaComplementoria print from Copenhagen. This happens when more than one worker is typesetting the print. Let's call them Villads & Emil. Villads has been doing this job for a while now; he routinely typesets all #Latin words w/ a beautiful cursive #Antiqua font. Emil, who's already having difficulty reading the #German text, uses #Fraktur for everything & only sets Latin proverbs in cursive. #BookHistory
