Handwriting History

In suicide, forgery, and kidnapping cases, handwriting analysis is very important. An Italian professor at the University of Bologna published a book in 1622 about characteristics in handwriting. The term “graphology” means the study of the way people form letters when they write. This term was created by Abbe Michon in 1870. Michon published a book analyzing penmanship and inspired Milton Bunker to create and organization named International Graphoanalysis Society. This organization is still used today to study graphology.
