Fonts came to be with the print press, which is generally accepted to have come about in 1450 (earlier versions existed, but this was the first that could properly be defined as such). The press attempted to mimic the handwriting of the time, resulting in cursive text people used at the time. This was gradually refined over and over in order to save on both space and ink, the letters became simpler and smaller. This resulted in the Serif fonts, which still had the serif at the time. The serifs were subsequently removed, to once again save on ink, and thus the Sans-serif fonts came about.
This is one of the fonts that is available free online. It was created and copyrighted in 2003 for commercial use.

I would say that literature came before history. Librarians put literature in the 800s and history in the 900s.

Semi-serif fonts are a combination of serif and sans-serif styles, where the font has some serif features but is less pronounced compared to traditional serif fonts. They provide a more modern and clean look while still maintaining some of the elegance associated with serif fonts.
Serif and sans-serif refer to styles of fonts. A serif is a stylistic embellishment -- or fancy piece -- so serif fonts are fonts that have extra pieces while sans-serif (sans meaning without) are fonts that don't.To see examples of the difference, you can take a look at the fonts on your computer, Times New Roman (with the tiny lines on the top and bottom of the upper-case "i" so that it doesn't look like an lower-case "L") is a serif font, while Arial is a sans-serif font.Because the brain reads serif fonts more quickly, most novels are written in serif fonts and textbooks in sans-serif.
Serif fonts have small lines (serifs) at the ends of characters, while sans serif fonts do not have these lines. Serif fonts are often seen as more traditional and formal, while sans serif fonts are considered more modern and clean. Sans serif fonts are typically easier to read on screens.
The four main types of fonts are serif, sans serif, script, and display. Serif fonts have small lines or flourishes at the ends of characters, sans serif fonts do not have these lines, script fonts mimic handwriting, and display fonts are decorative and designed to grab attention.
Usually the serif fonts are divided into 2 categories, slab serif and serif. Clarendon is an example of a slab serif.
Serif fonts are generally considered easier to read in print media, as the serifs help guide the eye along the text flow. However, in digital formats, sans-serif fonts are often preferred for on-screen readability due to their cleaner appearance. Ultimately, personal preference and context can play a significant role in the readability of serif fonts.
wrong category (word 2010 in css?!), but: serif = fonts with small "hooks" on the letters (e.g. times new roman) sans serif = plain fonts with no "hooks" (e.g. arial, verdana)

San Serif vs Serif fonts (San Serif does not have the lines, Serif does.) Search those two names and you will see examples. A "rule of thumb" is a San Serif font is normally easier for a machine to read but Serif fonts are more comfortable for a person to read.

No. CSS has five "back-up" fonts: serif, sans-serif, cursive, fantasy, and monospace. However, using "cursive" will likely do the trick, as the primary cursive font installed by your target audience will probably be in Arabic.
