La Rivolta degli studenti. Parlano i protagonisti book cover
La Révolte étudiante. Les animateurs parlent (Paris, Éditions du Seuil 1968) is a book by journalist Hervé Bourges (1933–2020) based on interviews with some of the leaders of the May 1968 student movement which had shaken the French political establishment just a few months before.
It was picked up by Mondadori in Italy and appeared with this cover designed by the great Anita Klinz in collaboration with artist Guido Carrer (1902–1984). They made a generous use of dry-transfer alphabets from Letraset — Compacta (Bold), Annlie (Extra Bold Italic), Grotesque No.9, Times New Roman (Bold), Cooper Black (Italic) — and French manufacturer Mecanorma — the little-seen Antique Bold Condensed — to reflect the urgency and turmoil that caracterised the political landscape at the time.
