Biography
Timothy Bright probably passed its youth to Sheffield. In 1588, it published Characterie; Year Arte off Shorte, Swifte and Secretes Writing by Character , of which there exists one specimen with the library of the Université of Oxford. Its system was composed of 500 arbitrary symbols which resembled words. One owes him the conservation of several works of William Shakespeare.
The English government, which wished to improve its method, stimulated its development by prices. Thus, between 16th and the 18th centuries appeared many works of this type where one not proposed to substitute a sign for each word or each sentence, but to represent syllables by simple geometrical features, of easy connection. One of these treaties, Arte off Brachygraphie of Peter Hefty man, appeared in 1597.
