Graphic Unconscious in Early M

Exploring the intersection of typography and literature, this study delves into French Renaissance works, notably those of Clement Marot, Rabelais, Ronsard, and Montaigne. It examines how printed characters can enhance or distort meaning, revealing underlying compositional patterns beyond the author's intent. The book highlights the interplay between text and visual elements, suggesting a proto-Freudian dimension that resonates with twentieth-century media practices, thus uncovering deeper political and subjective implications within the literary landscape.
