    Matthew Carter: Reflects on type design

    No full text
    This project is an oral history about the type designer Matthew Carter. Through questions Matthew Carter\u27s thoughts and ideas on type design have been explored. The resultant dialogue was recorded as an oral history of Matthew Carter. There are video and audio tapes along with the written project. The purpose of this research is to determine how Matthew Carter approaches designing letterforms as technology changes. A discussion follows in which Carter\u27s core philosophy of letterform design is defined; his ideals and perception of type design, and any significant trends anticipated in the future of letterform design. The theoretical basis for this study is the changing technology and how or if it affects typeface design. A List of References is included as Appendix A. Based upon this review, no one has explored the idea of how type design has changed over time, from hot metal typesetting, through phototypesetting, to the age of digital typesetting. There are many surprises as Matthew Carter explained how his approach to type design has changed little over the period. The method in which one could set type has changed opening the way to new possibilities. Methodology included study of all of Matthew Carter\u27s typefaces, formulation of relevant questions, travel to Cambridge, Massachusetts to interview Matthew Carter and record the interviews on both audio and video media. Questions of Importance include Matthew Carter\u27s early years in printing, his professional life, the present and the future of typeface design. The appendices contain a list of all of the type faces designed by Matthew Carter

    Ritual in the Damascus document and the Gospel of Matthew

    No full text
    This thesis examines the ritual content of the Damascus Document and the Gospel of Matthew, demonstrating how community identity is constructed and developed through the interpretation of the Law represented in each. The content is arranged according to the ritual typology of Catherine Bell, which organises ritual into six categories: calendrical ritual, rites of exchange and communion, political ritual, rites of passage, rites of affliction and rites of feasting and fasting. Analysis by type enables comparison and comment on the features and effects of ritual. I identify the Scriptural precedent for the discussions of ritual and any similar texts from the same period. These two ritually dense texts provide a great deal of material representing different perspectives on ritual function and obligations within a Jewish community setting. The Damascus Document is a non-sectarian legal text from the Second Temple period. The Gospel of Matthew presents the narrative of Jesus with considerable comment on ritual matters, reflecting an audience steeped in Jewish ritual praxis while looking towards an eschatological inclusion of Gentiles who adhere to Jewish obligations. Each offers an insight into a community dissenting from aspects of mainstream Judaism without withdrawing completely. Each community maintains traditional ritual obligations to some extent, but claims additional information clarifying the correct interpretations of the Law. This thesis analyses how they negotiate the practical, and often theological, issues that accompany their distinct practices, creating a community identity through ritual

    Zechariah and the Gospel off Matthew: the use of a biblical tradition

    No full text
    This thesis examines the use of Zechariah traditions in Matthew's Gospel. It analyzes and interprets the ways Matthew transmits, alters or adds Zechariah traditions to his sources. Instead of looking at portions of the Gospel in light of Zechariah 9-14 only, this study addresses the entire Gospel and all of Zechariah. In focusing on Zechariah tradition, the thesis has kept the following considerations in view. First, the content and function of Matthew's explicit uses of Zechariah are examined. Second, ways in which tradition derived from Zechariah may have exerted influence on portions of the gospel sub-structure are identified. Third, it explores the extent to which Matthew alludes to characteristic Zechariah themes. Together, these components illuminate how Matthew's Gospel incorporates its Zechariah material, whether alone or in combination with other prophetic traditions. Thus the methodological approach of the thesis is not only grounded in classical methods of biblical criticism but is also open to recent literary methods. In addition to explicit citations, numerous allusions and echoes of Zechariah tradition are present in Matthew. They appear in Matthean materials and in traditions Matthew has taken from Mark and Q. Because the focus of this thesis is open to both the Gospel and the Zechariah traditions in their entirety, two important observations have been made. First, traces of Zechariah material are found in the Infancy and Gaililean healing Narratives as well as in the Passion Narrative. Not only is the impact of Zechariah 9-14 observed, but important sections of Zechariah 1-8 are also discerned in Matthew's narrative structure. Moreover, Matthew's Son of David Christology is enriched and partially defined by Zechariah's prophet-shepherd imagery, as well as by the royal messianic motif
