Readers interested in Italic handwriting can reach many resources at http://www.learn.to/handwrite ... and may also enjoy the teach-yourself Italic course available free on-line at briem.ismennt.is/4/4.1.1a/4.1.1.1.quick.htm Other self-study Italic resources appear on-line at the following URLs — http://www.cep.pdx.edu/titles/italic_series/excerpts.htm and http://www.BFHhandwriting.com Getting back to your own Italic information, though ... please explain why your page in support of Italic promotes non-Italic systems such as the Palmer Method (a difficult looped cursive system which many people find very hard to write legibly). Please also explain why your pro-Italic page promotes George Bickham\'s UNIVERSAL PENMAN (most of which concerns looped cursive and other very elaborate non-Italic styles.) People wanting early Italic handwriting resources (as opposed to non-Italic resources) can still get the first book ever published on handwriting in Europe (a Renaissance-era Italic textbook) from the handwriting/calligraphy supplies firm John Neal, Bookseller at http://www.johnnealbooks.com — ask for LA OPERINA by Ludovico Arrighi (published in Rome, 1522; most modern editions include a full English translation.)
