In Greece the terms italic and oblique have the same meaning since they are borrowed from the latin typographic practice without any real historical equivalent in Greek history. Until the end of the 19th century Greek typefaces were cut and cast independently, not as members of a typefamily. The mechanisation of typecutting allowed the transformation of upright Greek typefaces to oblique designs. Nonetheless, the typesetting practice of a cursive Greek font to complement an upright one did not survive the 19th century. The experimental font GFS Olga (1995) attempts to revive this lost tradition. The typeface was designed and digitised by George Matthiopoulos, based on the historical Porson Greek type (1803) with the intention to be the companion of the upright GFS Didot font whenever there is a need for an italic alternative.

In England, during the 1790's, Cambridge University Press decided to procure a new set of Greek types. The university’s great scholar of Classics, Richard Porson was asked to produce a typeface based on his handsome handwriting and Richard Austin was commissioned to cut the types. The type was completed in 1808, after the untimely death of Porson the previous year. Its success was immediate and since then the classical editions in Great Britain and the U.S.A. use it, almost invariably. In 1913, Monotype released the typeface with some corrections, notably replacing the upright capitals suggested by Porson with inclined ones. In Greece the typeface was used under the name Pelasgika type. GFS Porson is based on the Monotype version, though using upright capitals, as in the original.
 
Description
En Angleterre, dans les années 1790, Cambridge University Press décida de se procurer un nouvel ensemble de fontes grecques. Il fut demandé au grand érudit de l'université de lettres classiques Richard Porson de produire une fonte basée sur sa belle écriture et Richard Austin fut chargé de graver les fontes. La fonte a été achevée en 1808, après la mort prématurée de Porson l'année précédente. Son succès a été immédiat et depuis lors, les éditions classiques en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis l'utilisent presque toujours. En 1913, Monotype publia la police avec quelques corrections, en remplaçant notamment les capitales droites suggérées par Porson par les inclinées. En Grèce, la police fut utilisée sous le nom de fonte Pelasgika. GFS Porson est basée sur la version de Monotype, mais avec les capitales droites, comme dans l'original.

From the middle of the 19th century an italic font with many calligraphic overtones was introduced into Greek printing. Its source is unknown, but it almost certainly was the product of a German or Italian foundry. In the first type specimen printed in Greece by the typecutter K. Miliadis (1850), the font was listed anonymously along others of 11pts and in the Gr. Doumas' undated specimen appeared as «11pt Greek inclined». For most of the second half of the century the type was used extensively as an italic for emphasis in words, sentences or exerpts. In 1889, the folio size Type Specimen of Anestis Konstantinidis' publishing, printing and type founding establishment also included the type as «Greek inclined [9 & 12 pt]».
 
Description
A partir du milieu du 19ème siècle, une police en italique avec de nombreux accents calligraphiques a été introduite dans l'impression grecque. Sa source est inconnue, mais il était presque certainement le produit d'une fonderie allemande ou italienne. Dans le premier spécimen de fontes imprimé en Grèce par le typographe K. Miliadis (1850), la police a été listée anonymement le long d'autres polices de 11pts et dans le specimen de Gr. Doumas est apparu sous le nom de «[nbsp]11pt grec incliné[nbsp]». Durant la plupart de la seconde moitié du siècle, la police a été largement utilisée comme un italique pour souligner des mots, des phrases ou des extraits. En 1889, le spécimen de taille folio de la société de publication, impression et typographie Anestis Konstantinidis comprenait également le type «[nbsp]grec incliné [9 & 12 pt][nbsp]».

Nevertheless, the excessively calligraphic style of the characters, combined with the steep and uncomfortable obliqueness of the capitals, was out of favour in the 20th century and the type did not survive the conformity of the mechanical type cutting and casting. The font has been digitally revived, as part of our typographic tradition, by George D. Matthiopoulos and is part of GFS' type library under the name GFS Solomos, in commemoration of the great Greek poet of the 19th century, Dionisios Solomos.

Its complex and heavily decorative design does point to aesthetic codes which preoccupied his artistic expression and, although impractical for contemporary text setting, it remains an original display face, or it can be used as initials. The book design workshop of the Fine Arts School of Athens has been recently reorganised, under the direction of professor Leoni Vidali, and with her collaboration George D. Matthiopoulos has redesigned digitaly this historical font which is now available as GFS Theokritos.
