Eric Gill se narodil v roce 1882 v anglickém Brightonu a už v útlém dětství projevoval zájem o písmo a architekturu i nadání pro tyto obory. Na popud W. R. Leihabyho z Centrální školy umění a řemesel začal vyřezávat písmena a navštěvovat výuku Edwarda Johnstona. V roce 1903 odešel na volnou nohu a započal svou celoživotní dráhu jako řemeslník. V roce 1924 jej požádal Stanley Morison, aby napsal článek o typografii do typografického časopisu Fleuron. Odmítl s tím, že typografie "není jeho světem". Už v roce 1925 však Gill rozpracoval několik abeced (z jedné z nich se nakonec stala Perpetua) a také formuloval zásady, které později sebral do svého slavného "Eseje". Eric Gill měl nadání pro bezpočet věcí. Do své smrti v roce 1940 si osvojil mnoho řemesel: byl sochařem, kameníkem, rytcem, filozofem, ilustrátorem a typografem. V srdci však zůstával pokrokovým radikálem a sociálním reformátorem, v jehož práci se vždy odrážela jeho filozofie a jehož ruka se řídila jeho morálním přesvědčením.

Sound Authorities shows how experiences of music and sound played a crucial role in nineteenth-century scientific inquiry in Britain. In Sound Authorities, Edward J. Gillin focuses on hearing and aurality in Victorian Britain, claiming that the development of the natural sciences in this era cannot be understood without attending to the study of sound and music. During this time, scientific practitioners attempted to fashion themselves as authorities on sonorous phenomena, coming into conflict with traditional musical elites as well as religious bodies. Gillin pays attention to sound in both musical and nonmusical contexts, specifically the cacophony of British industrialization. Sound Authorities begins with the place of acoustics in early nineteenth-century London, examining scientific exhibitions, lectures, spectacles, workshops, laboratories, and showrooms. He goes on to explore how mathematicians mobilized sound in their understanding of natural laws and their vision of a harmonious ordered universe. In closing, Gillin delves into the era’s religious and metaphysical debates over the place of music (and humanity) in nature, the relationship between music and the divine, and the tensions between spiritualist understandings of sound and scientific ones.

An engaging account of how Shaftesbury revolutionized Western philosophyAt the turn of the eighteenth century, Anthony Ashley Cooper, the third Earl of Shaftesbury (1671–1713), developed the first comprehensive philosophy of beauty to be written in English. It revolutionized Western philosophy. In A Philosophy of Beauty, Michael Gill presents an engaging account of how Shaftesbury’s thought profoundly shaped modern ideas of nature, religion, morality, and art—and why, despite its long neglect, it remains compelling today. Before Shaftesbury’s magnum opus, Charactersticks of Men, Manners, Opinions, Times (1711), it was common to see wilderness as ugly, to associate religion with fear and morality with unpleasant restriction, and to dismiss art as trivial or even corrupting. But Shaftesbury argued that nature, religion, virtue, and art can all be truly beautiful, and that cherishing and cultivating beauty is what makes life worth living. And, as Gill shows, this view had a huge impact on the development of natural religion, moral sense theory, aesthetics, and environmentalism. Combining captivating historical details and flashes of humor, A Philosophy of Beauty not only rediscovers and illuminates a fascinating philosopher but also offers an inspiring reflection about the role beauty can play in our lives.
