The Anxiety of Influence: A Theory of Poetry

Choosing the Margin as a Space of Radical Openness

Before the first World War, graphic design was almost entirely conventionalized. Layouts were symmetrical, centered. Variety and interest were achieved by using different type faces, different sizes and weights of type (bold, italic etc.), and by employing a welter of decorative rules and borders. Illustrations and vignettes, either drawings or photographs, might accompany the printed text; but they were rarely integrated, essential parts of typographic compositions.
