Book Synopsis A Short History of the British School of Painting (Classic Reprint) by : George H. Shepherd

This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the British School of Painting My aim in compiling a short History of the British School of Painting is to supply an apparent want in the Art Literature of the day. All our recent valuable Text Books and Essays upon Art pre-suppose more accurate information respecting the names, characteristics and principal works of the painters of the British School than is to be found in a concise form, within the reach of every art student. Although fully conscious that I have rather collected the materials for a history than deftly welded them into one, I trust that my foundation of facts will be solid enough to enable some future historian to construct upon it a more graceful edifice. If, in the meantime, my labours prove of service in bridging over the gap, I shall feel amply repaid. I regret the accidental omission of the names of several excellent artists. This and other short comings I hope to remedy should a second edition be called for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Italian Painting Tms little book is an answer to many inquiries for a guide to the study of Italian painting suficiently clear and detailed for the beginner and yet embodying the results of modern criticism. The methods of art interpretation during the pat fo years have been revolutionised as much as have been the met ods of literary, historical, and Biblical criticism. A true estimate of schools and masters is now seen to rest upon the correct attribu tion of individual works of art, and this attribution depends upon the expert weighing of evidence for the authenticity of examples traditionally or otherwise attributed. Although documenta evidence and the accounts of wly writers are necessarily use the main factor in identification is an intimate acquaintance with the characteristics of periods and artists gained from constant and prolonged examination and comparison of the works themselves, a study which extends itself to all the minor and unknown men whose works are scattered through every hamlet and church and private palace in Ital as well as through hundreds of private and public collections in urope and America.

Book Synopsis A Short History of the Renaissance in Italy by : John Addington Symonds

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Renaissance in Italy: Taken From the Works of John Addington Symonds It had been often represented to my husband that his "Renaissance in Italy" in a shorter form would be acceptable to many who are without the leisure or the inclination to take up the subject in the character of students. But though, through stress of other work, he was indisposed to return to the subject, he was quite willing that our friend Colonel Pearson, who has been associated with us for some years at Davos, and who is well acquainted with Italy, should carry out his own views as to what might be interesting and useful to those who would be satisfied with the subject in a more popular form. It will be seen, therefore, that in the choice of his materials Colonel Pearson's object has been to select and arrange for those who know Italy, or hope in the future to do so, whatever may sustain or promote an interest in its history, its art, and its literature.

Book Synopsis A Short History of French Literature (Classic Reprint) by : William Henry Hudson
Download or read book A Short History of French Literature (Classic Reprint) written by William Henry Hudson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of French Literature Mr. Hudson's death on the 12th of August 1918, at Droitwich, came as a shock; but not altogether to those by whom he was best known as an unanticipated blow. In 1913 he had had a disabling attack of rheumatic fever, and he was well aware his heart was weak. Indeed, he once remarked to one who some eight years ago remonstrated with him for overtaxing his strength that he had good reason to suppose his span of life would be short, and that he had much that he wished to write. This is the nemesis of the critical profession. Before one can criticise, one must have read and studied; and when at fifty "the ship is cheered," one may perhaps hear the evening bell. Not that Mr. Hudson's energy was in any degree abated. His last book on Nineteenth Century Literature was as ripe and easy as anything he had produced, a thing let fall from copiousness and a mind stored to the full. Learning is a word that in this country has come to bear a very particular connotation. One must know more about some one subject, however minute or subdivided, than others do; or one must labour in the mine and bring to the surface what has not been properly accessible before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the World This short history OF the world is meant to be read straight forwardly almost as a novel is read. It gives in the most general way an account of our present knowledge of history, shorn of elabora tions and complications. It has been amply illustrated and every thing has been done to make it vivid and clear. From it the reader should be able to get that general View of history which is so neces sary a framework for the study of a particular period or the history of a particular country. It may be found useful as a preparatory excursion before the reading of the author's much fuller and more explicit Outline of History is undertaken. But its especial end is to meet the needs of the busy general reader, too driven to study the maps and time charts of that Outline in detail, Who Wishes to refresh and repair his faded or fragmentary conceptions of the great adventure of mankind. It is not an abstract or condensation of that former work. Within its aim the Outline admits of no further.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Hampton Court This volume has been compiled from the author's larger works with the view of affording a continuous narrative of events, and a picture of life at Hampton Court, during the four centuries of its history, in such a compact and compendious form, and at so moderate a price, as to bring it within the range and means of the general reader. Consequently, while all that seemed essential to this object has been reproduced in the present book, much topographical detail and many discussions on questions of art and archaeology, which occupy a considerable space in "The History of Hampton Court Palace," in three quarto volumes, have necessarily been either greatly abbreviated, or altogether omitted.
