Con Serifas
Serifs originated in the Latin alphabet with inscriptional lettering—words carved into sto-ne in Roman antiquity. The explanation proposed by Father Edward Catich in his 1968 book The Origin of the Serif is now broadly but not universally accepted: the Roman letter out-lines were first painted onto stone, and the stone carvers followed the brush marks which flared at stroke ends and corners, creating serifs. Another theory is that serifs were devised to neaten the ends of lines as they were chiseled into stone. The origin of the word serif is obscure, but apparently almost as recent as the type style. In The British Standard of the Ca-pital Letters contained in the Roman Alphabet, forming a complete code of systematic rules for a mathematical construction and accurate formation of the same by William Hollins, it defined surripses, usually pronounced surriphs, as projections which appear at the tops and bottoms of some letters, the o and q excepted, at the beginning or end, and sometimes at each, of all." In 1827, a Greek scholar, Julian Hibbert, printed with his own experimental uncial Greek types, remarking that the types of Bodoni's Callimachus were "ornamented (or rather disfigured) by additions of what I believe type-founders call syrifs or cerefs." The ol-dest citations in the Oxford English Dictionary are 1830 for serif and 1841 for sans serif. The OED speculates that serif was a back-formation from sanserif. Webster's Third New Interna-tional Dictionary traces serif to the Dutch noun schreef, meaning "line, stroke of the pen", related to the verb schrappen, "to delete, strike through". Schreef now also means "serif" in

Schreef now also means "serif" in Dutch. The OED's earliest citation for "grotesque" in this sense is 1875, giving stone-letter as a synonym.
