Austen tells us that Georgiana Darcy couldn't fit all her delight at her brother's engagement onto four sides of paper. I've always wondered if it was four sides cross-written or not!
@@katyb2793true, but it was the people who _received_ the letter who paid for the postage. So the most polite thing was to send a franked letter (meaning it had free postage due to the sender's privilege such as being a member of Parliament) or else keep it short and cheap by methods like cross writing.
Ah that's how I'd make my note cards for uni exams! We could put as many formulas on as we could fit handwritten. Two different colors of pen makes it a bit easier to decipher.
Would it not be more effective to simply write as small as possibly? Surely the legibility of writing at ~70% the size would be more legible than an equal amount of words written across one another?
I recall it described in one of Laura Ingalls Wilder's books. Her mother writes a letter for the relatives and tries to get as much as possible into the letter. Sounded unreadable to me then.
Yeah, if I remember correctly, they crossed the letter not just vertically, but also diagonally. Paper was not necessarily easy to come by. In a slightly related practice, my grandmother and her family and friends always signed greeting cards at the bottom, so the recipient could cut the signature off and re-use the card.
Yes it actually is. Same principle as using highliter on notebook s I guess, it makes it easier to keep following the same line of text and not get distracted by the other layer of text.
I’ve always done this! And expected people to be able to read it. At some point I gave up and just made it part of my art. I didn’t know it was an actual thing, thank you!
I do as well. You need to pay attention to spacing individual lines of text, but otherwise, you can really have your fun with it & the text can still remain legible. For example using different colours or saturations of one color to write, write under different angles than just 90° and try getting more layers of text on top of each other. It is very similiar to that red & blue sketches drawn on top of each other and then using filters to single out the layers.
I just watched a video on another channel which described how during Jane Austen's time they would take a piece of paper roughly the size of A4, fold it in half and write on the first three pages leaving the fourth page blank. They would then carefully fold the the letter to create an envelope with the fourth page on the outside. This would then be sealed with wax. Apparently Ms. Austen liked to write long letters and would use cross-writing to not go beyond the three pages. The video showed a copy of a letter she wrote in which she used cross-writing. Is it possible that reading, or trying to read, her letters infuriated some of her friends? [If you would like to see the video, it is entitled: "Regency Era Letter Folding Tutorial - Jane Austen Style."]
One must've needed a very thin italic nib to be able to write such a thing! Perhaps it fell out of fashion once fountain pens became more normal as they tend to have a much thicker nib, even when at their finest. (source: I've practiced calligraphy for years and love history)
i read this thing called the jane austen handbook and when i dont know if its 200% historically accurate it explained all of like janes antics to me which made me very happy xD when explaining how to write a letter they said to save on postage write on one side, turn, write on the other, turn again, and i was like ‘how many pages are we using’ 😭
@@jonkersrarebooksAs a lover of history, I have always found different names for events an interesting fact. It really helps to show how multifaceted events are. What was revolt for one group is mutiny to another.
@@krupaonkarmurthy5903 While it is known as the 'First War of Indian Independence' in school textbooks, in higher studies Revolt of 1857 is more common. Personally, I prefer to use 'Revolt of 1857' because there is no accepted 'second war of independence.' But that is just me being a pedant.
An online friend sent me a picture of a crosswriting letter once, and suggested I print it out and use a blank page to underline as I read. It definitely made it much easier and less annoying to read.
Secretaries used a short code that used abbreviations, not the same code as text speak but the same kind of style and purpose. I imagine part of the appeal of this style though is that it both saves space and discourages anyone sneaking a peek at your letter since it's harder to read, and historically people spying on your letters was a much more common issue.
You should look up Tironian shorthand, it was devised by the Roman statesman's secretary Tiro in the 1st century BC. It was apparently used into the 17th century
Oh gosh. Handwritten abbreviations make certain church and government civil records incomprehensible if you don't already know what the abbreviations represent.
In school, my handwriting always got work sent back for rewrites. I was so happy when word processing was invented. And then became a teacher and discovered... ...my handwriting was not only legible but razor-level on the board.😮 Turns out I just had to write bigger.

When I was a freshman in college 1964, in S.C., USA, I had a roommate whose parents were missionaries in Australia. They wrote this way to her on airmail tissue paper. She was always stressed when she got a letter and would hold it for hours afraid to open it as she aways expected bad news.
I would do multiple designs, not all the time with different ink on a little bit of tracing paper in architecture school(1980s.) It baffled me when others couldn't separate the layers😂

Helps to take the envelope or another piece of paper to block out the other lines. My Grandfather's letters home from the South Pacific were written this way. I don't know why because we only found them 12 years after he passed away while taking care of my Grandmother's estate after she passed away.
They originally didn’t use envelopes if they could leave one side of one sheet (or at least the parts that would be on the outside when folded up as a letter) unwritten, because the envelope counted as another sheet of paper that the recipient had to pay postage for.

Just use a red pen and a blue pen for the cross writing and then read it with 3D glasses. (With either the left eye or the right eye closed.) This makes it much easier.
Yknow… I quite like this, and I believe that using red ink for foreground sentences and blue for bg sentences would make this far easier to read. Easier to just focus on one colour or the other.
2 questions: 1. Is this just spiral-writing? (You turn right every time you get to the end of the line) 2. How exactly does this give you more space if it’s the same size piece of paper
Omg i never realized this was real. I use a variation of this in my comic! Its a specific language thats died out buts common to write the symbols in a spiral instead of in a line. But a squirrel kept the dead language alive in the underworld by selling love notes in the language for ppl to give to their partners. He would even change the spiral to a heart shape if you asked to fit the love theme. Then theres a famous love poem that seems impossible to read but it’s multiple POV in two spirals intertwined and opposing directions. Each pov is a lover telling their struggles w/in the relationship. ^u^ i had so much fun thinking up the language that i made it usable and have symbols for my name, my parents, objects. I can make sentences out of them !!!

It's not Indian mutiny of 1857. It is first Indian Revolution. We were not revolting against our 'masters' but revolting to gain our freedom from East India company.
i think it could work if you wrote in plain text, on grid paper with two different colored pens especially if you did it like that one trick where you could look through something red to only see the blue words then look through something blue to only see the red
