00:00 Benefits (& History) of Penmanship Introduction
While the art of penmanship seems to have faded in recent history, we believe this gentlemanly pursuit still has a place today and that handwriting should be as clear and beautiful as the ideas being put on the page.
01:43 The Modern History of Penmanship
Fountain Pens – Favored For Cursive Writing
Penmanship courses during this period covered both cursive and printed script, but because cursive allowed one to write quickly as the pen didn’t need to be removed from the pages often, it was favored for most handwritten documents.
07:24 Preston's Personal Experience in Penmanship Training
08:07 Penmanship: A Dying Art?
One of the first causes for the decline in penmanship came from the invention of new pen technologies. For all of its many benefits, the fountain pen wasn’t without drawbacks.
In particular, the refilling process could be time-consuming and indelicate handling could lead to ink stains and spills. Also, fountain pen nibs were very delicate and could be easily damaged, especially on rough surfaces.
12:53 Quality Penmanship Required Quality Pen
A perfectly honed instrument like a fountain pen is fundamentally an investment. And you should expect to invest not only money but also time and practice. Indeed, no matter the pen you choose to use, good penmanship requires time and dedication to master.
15:27 The Decline In Penmanship = The Rise Of Technology
Improper pen usage, lower quality writing instruments, and a decreased focus on teaching penmanship in schools led, somewhat, to the decline of penmanship. However, this wasn’t the only factor and certainly not what delivered the death blow.
17:43 Will Handwritten Communication Soon Reach Its End?
The changes and innovation we see in handwriting may imply that we’ve finally reached the last days of penmanship and that soon, all communication will be digital? But, we don’t think so.
We hope it’s that penmanship and the particular charm of a handwritten letter are not bygone relics. But instead, personal and beautiful mementos of a more elegant age. We hope you’ll consider taking up a fountain pen, practicing your penmanship, and writing out more letters and thank you cards soon.
