Comments: CIVILITE.

And, dear God, isn't it *ugly*?

I don't know, I think it looks interesting, sort of Basque influanced or something, but I would be worried about how the book in question uses it. Civilité as a decorative font for chapter headings would be okay, but I don't think I'd want to read long passages in it.

I assume it's not used for passages of text, but I'm curious to see the book and find out.

Good heavens! One of only two Latin texts I remember at all!
