Don Quichotte et les figures de l’auteur (“Don Quixote and figures of authorship”) is the first publication in La petite collection (“The small collection”). This text proposes a parallel between “revival” in typography and in literature, through the figure of Don Quixote and its reuses in different texts. This text is taken from a lecture given in 2017 by Thomas Huot-Marchand at the Atelier nationale de recherche typographique (ANRT).
To design this booklet, Roman Seban used his Bertin typeface and Henry by Matthieu Cortat. La petite collection is co-published by the Association Presse Offset and the École européenne supérieure d’art de Bretagne (EESAB), site de Lorient, in partnership with the type foundry 205TF.
