Book excerpt: Excerpt from Armour and Weapons in the Middle Ages The study of brasses has become of redoubled interest since the Great War, inasmuch as many examples on the Continent disappeared during the War years. In number these memorials were never very great, and could not bear comparison with those in the British Isles to-day, there fore, more than ever, England's proud position of being the home of sepulchral brasses, and the only country where they may be studied in their full development, is unchallenge able. The fact only needs to be stated to ensure that every patriotic child of Britain who sees a brass in danger of injury or destruction will make an effort to preserve it.

Download or read book European Weapons and Armour written by Ewart Oakeshott and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of arms in Western Europe from the Renaissance to the Industrial Revolution. A treasury of information based on solid scholarship, anyone seeking a factual and vivid account of the story of arms from the Renaissance period to the Industrial Revolution will welcome this book. The author chooses as his starting-point the invasion of Italy by France in 1494, which sowed the dragon's teeth of all the successive European wars; the French invasion was to accelerate the trend towards new armaments and new methods of warfare. The authordescribes the development of the handgun and the pike, the use and style of staff-weapons, mace and axe and war-hammer, dagger and dirk and bayonet. He shows how armour attained its full Renaissance splendour and then suffered itssorry and inevitable decline, culminating in the Industrial Revolution, with its far-reaching effects on military armaments. Above all, he follows the long history of the sword, queen of weapons, to the late eighteenth century, when it finally ceased to form a part of a gentleman's every-day wear. Lavishly illustrated. EWART OAKESHOTT was one of the world's leading authorities on the arms and armour of medieval Europe. His other works on the subject include Records of the Medieval Sword and The Sword in the Age of Chivalry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Armour and Weapons in Europe: From the Iron Period of the Northern Nations to the End of the Seventeenth Century; Supplement, Comprising the 15th, 16th, and 17th Centuries It is by no means contended that a complete examina tion of these later centuries would not be desirable; but, to effect this, our little work would be so much augmented in bulk and costliness, that our chief hope of its usefulness, a wide circulation among artists and students, (to a certain number of whom the expensiveness of a book is a seri ous Obj ection, ) would be materially diminished. We have therefore resolved to adopt the plan already indicated: in carrying it into effect, we shall endeavo ur, by giving numerous references, to make it an easy task for the stu dent to complete the investigation by his own researches. It may be further remarked that, on quitting the four teenth century, the fashions Of armour are much more easy to be understood than before. Defences of plate being now generally adopted, the differences of suits are principally differences of form; and, as remains of real arm our and weapons of this time are to be found in many Collections.

Download or read book Medieval Weapons written by Robert D. Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-04-20 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating reference covers the weapons and armor used by warriors from the 4th to the 15th century and discusses how and why they changed over time. In the Middle Ages, the lack of standardized weapons meant that one warrior's arms were often quite different from another's, even when they were fighting on the same side. And with few major technological advances in that period, the evolution of those weapons over the centuries was incremental. But evolve they ultimately did, bringing arms, armor, and siege weapons to the threshold of the modern era. From the fall of the Roman Empire to the beginnings of the Renaissance, Medieval Weapons: An Illustrated History of Their Impact covers the inexorable transformation from warrior in the mail shirt to fully armored knight, from the days of spears and swords to the large-scale adoption of the handgun. Medieval Weapons covers this fascinating expanse of centuries in chapters devoted to the early medieval, Carolingian, Crusade, and late medieval periods. Within each period, the book details how weapons and armor were developed, what weapons were used for different types of battles, and how weapons and armor both influenced, and were influenced by, changing tactics in battles and sieges.
