Summary:
Avec le Chant général, j'ai travaillé sur le terrain de la chronique et du mémorial, un terrain qui, les premiers temps, me parut rocailleux et inhospitalier. Mais soudain je découvris [...] qu'il n'y avait pas de matériel antipoétique lorsqu'il s'agissait de nos réalités. Les faits les plus obscurs de nos peuples doivent être brandis en pleine lumière. Nos plantes et nos(...)

Mais soudain je découvris [...] qu'il n'y avait pas de matériel antipoétique lorsqu'il s'agissait de nos réalités. Les faits les plus obscurs de nos peuples doivent être brandis en pleine lumière. Nos plantes et nos fleurs, pour la première fois, doivent être contées et chantées. Nos volcans et nos rivières sont restés dans les espaces desséchés des textes. Que leur feu et leur fertilité soient livrés au monde par nos poètes. Nous sommes les chroniqueurs d'une naissance retardée. Retardée par le féodalisme, par la stagnation, par la faim. Il ne s'agit pas seulement de préserver notre culture, mais de la livrer à toutes nos forces, de la nourrir et de lui permettre de fleurir. » Pablo Neruda.

This history takes a inclusive view of the varied field of book art and redresses the sporadic or confused acknowledgment from the art world that has long marginalized the artist's book. The book identifies European precursors of these kinds of artists' books, then quickly moves to America with the development of artists and books and non-profit organization. "No Longer Innocent" also addresses the ways book art affected and responded to art movements, such as Pop, Fluxus, or Conceptualism.

Summary:
Ever since the creation of the first Penguin paperbacks in 1935, their jackets have become a constantly evolving part of Britain's culture and design history. Rich with stunning illustrations and filled with detail of individual titles, designers and even the changing size and shape of the Penguin logo itself, this book shows how covers become design classics. By looking back at seventy years of Penguin paperbacks, Phil Baines charts the development of British publishing, book-cover design and the role of artists and designers in creating and defining the Penguin look. Coupling in-depth analysis of designers - from Jan Tschichold to Romek Marber - with a wide-ranging look at the range of series and titles published - from early Penguins and Pelicans, to wartime Specials, fiction and reference, this is a distinctive picture of how Penguin has consistently established its identity through its covers, influenced by - and influencing - the wider development of graphic design and the changing fashions in typography, photography, illustration or printing techniques. Filled with inspiring images, "Penguin by Design" demonstrates just how difficult it is not to judge a book by its cover.
