	Pierre Simon Fournier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pierre Simon Fournier (September 15, 1712 - October 8, 1768) was a French mid-eighteenth century punch-cutter, typefounder and typographic theoretician, master of the rococo form.
		The typefaces that Fournier and successors created had such extreme contrast between thick and thin strokes, that there was a constant risk of the letters shattering.
		Fournier's company was carried on after his death, by his widow, and existed until the 19th century.

		The Fournier Register is a set of records from the inquisition into heresy run by Jacques Fournier, Bishop of Pamiers from 1318 to 1325.
		Prior to Bishop Fournier the local authorities had done little to pursue local heretics, and the region was one of the last areas of France to be home to a significant number of Cathars.
		Fournier only very rarely turned to torture to extract information, and when he did so it was generally under explicit orders from his superiors.

		The Fournier family by Monotype was based on the types cut by Pierre Simon Fournier circa 1742 and called St Augustin Ordinaire in Fournier's Manuel Typographique.
		Fournier based his point system on the French type size called "cicero", which was 0.1648 of an inch, and he divided his cicero into 12 typographical points.
		After the death of Pierre Simon Fournier, Ambroise Didot, who was an influential typefounder and printer of the period, decided to improve on Fournier's point system by harmonizing it with the existing legal French foot measurement of the day, which was 12.7892 American inches.

	Unaccompanied Cello Suites by Pierre Fournier at jsbach.org
		Pierre Fournier has, at the same time one of the warmest and homogeneous cello sound ever recorded, and plays those suites with great musical sense, wonderfull phrasing and sense of form.
		Although Fournier was regarded as a romantic cellist, his performance in this recording is strictly the Baroque-oriented, "expressively controlled"plying of Bach(N.Anderson).
		An ADD recording, this piece of work by Fournier shows no less exquisitness than a DDD version.

		So too has my regard for Pierre Fournier, whose playing on this CD is bold and clearly articulated.
		Kempff is the most humane and visionary of pianists, and he is remarkable in that he is perfectly prepared to put his undoubted virtuosity on the back burner and let Fournier's cello fully sing and soar.

	The Art of Pierre Fournier
		The side views of Fournier detach his ever-active left hand, so its rapid shifts on the strings take on a life of their own, a kind of artistic Beast With 5 Fingers.
		The facility with which Fournier negotiates even the most grueling leaps and stretches is a thing of beauty.
		Several times the lighting cancels out all but Fournier’s head and hands, so the high wail of this meditation is literally disembodied.
