Download or read book Games and Visual Culture in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance written by Vanina Kopp and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, games were not an idle pastime, but were in fact important tools for exploring, transmitting, enhancing, subverting, and challenging social practices and their rules. Their study, through both visual and material sources, offers a unique insight into medieval and early modern gaming culture, shedding light not only on why, where, when, with whom and in what conditions and circumstances people played games, but also on the variety of interpretations that they had of games and play. Representations of games, and of artefacts associated with games, also often served to communicate complex ideas on topics that ranged from war to love, and from politics to theology.00This volume offers a particular focus onto the type of games that required little or no physical exertion and that, consequently, all people could enjoy, regardless of age, gender, status, occupation, or religion. The representations and artefacts discussed here by contributors, who come from varied disciplines including history, literary studies, art history, and archaeology, cover a wide geographical and chronological range, from Spain to Scandinavia to the Ottoman Turkey and from the early medieval period to the seventeenth century and beyond. Far from offering the ?last word? on the subject, it is hoped that this volume will encourage further studies.

Book Synopsis Fleas, Flies, and Friars by : Nicholas Orme
Download or read book Fleas, Flies, and Friars written by Nicholas Orme and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-06 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medieval children lived in a world rich in poetry, from lullabies, nursery rhymes, and songs to riddles, tongue twisters, and nonsensical verses. They read or listened to stories in verse: ballads of Robin Hood, romances, and comic tales. Poems were composed to teach them how to behave, eat at meals, hunt game, and even learn Latin and French. In Fleas, Flies, and Friars, Nicholas Orme, an expert on childhood in the Middle Ages, has gathered a wide variety of children’s verse that circulated in England beginning in the 1400s, providing a way for modern readers of all ages to experience the medieval world through the eyes of its children. In his delightful treasury of medieval children’s verse, Orme does a masterful job of recovering a lively and largely unknown tradition, preserving the playfulness of the originals while clearly explaining their meaning, significance, or context. Poems written in Latin or French have been translated into English, and Middle English has been modernized. Fleas, Flies, and Friars has five parts. The first two contain short lyrical pieces and fragments, together with excerpts from essays in verse that address childhood or were written for children. The third part presents poems for young people about behavior. The fourth contains three long stories and the fifth brings together verse relating to education and school life.

Book Synopsis Sports and Games of Medieval Cultures by : Sally Wilkins

Book excerpt: From the beginning of time, humans have created and passed on to their children sports and games that teach skills, promote leisure, and encourage friendly competition. By studying these sports and games, we learn much about the culture and traditions of our ancestors. Sports and Games of Medieval Cultures focuses on those sports, games, and play rituals from across the globe that were invented and played during the time of the Middle Ages. Teachers, students, and sports enthusiasts will enjoy discovering the early origins of their favorite sports and games, and how they have evolved into the familiar versions of today. They will also learn about many games otherwise lost to history, and find instructions on how to adapt them for modern play. As one of four books in the series Sports and Games Through History, it is divided into seven regions of the world including: Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, The Middle East, North America, and Oceania. Each section describes sports, games, and play rituals for that region, and students can compare and contrast similar sports and games from different regions. Descriptions of equipment, with instructions on making or adapting the game pieces, are given for those students who would like to recreate the games for either multicultural assignments or for fun. This unique book belongs in every library's sports history and multicultural collections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dangerous and difficult for both mother and child--what was the birth experience like in the Middle Ages? Dependent, in part, on social class, what pastimes did children enjoy? What games did they play? With often uncomfortable and even harsh living conditions, what kind of care did children receive in the home on a daily basis? These are just a few of the questions this work addresses about the day-to-day childhood experiences during the Middle Ages. Focusing on all social classes of children, the topics are wide-ranging. Chapters cover birth and baptism; early childhood; playing; clothing; care and discipline; formal education; university education; career training for peasants, craftsmen, merchants, clergy and nobility; and coming of age. In addition, three appendices are included. Appendix I provides information on the humoral theory of medicine. Appendix II offers examples of medieval math problems. Appendix III covers a unique episode in medieval history known as "The Children's Crusade." Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Book Synopsis The Middle Ages for Kids Through the Lives of Kings, Heroes, and Saints by : Catherine Fet
Download or read book The Middle Ages for Kids Through the Lives of Kings, Heroes, and Saints written by Catherine Fet and published by Stratostream LLC. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book follows the tradition of teaching history in a story-based format. The often-politicized "social studies" approach to history focuses on economic and class underpinnings of historical events and on interpreting history rather than teaching its facts. Why are we not surprised that this leaves kids - from elementary through high school - totally disinterested and annoyed? If a kid remembers what 'feudalism' is, but can't recall a single story about Charlemagne, Richard the Lionheart, or Barbarossa, their history teacher may want to look into actually teaching history! "If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten," said Rudyard Kipling. To create a memorable narrative for kids, I have gone back to many original sources of historical tales and anecdotes, such as medieval chronicles and sagas, and retold their stories in a way most likely to engage a modern kid. I haven't included any gruesome details, nor anything outside of traditional family-friendly morality. The list of historical and legendary figures featured in this book includes: King Arthur, Charlemagne, Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson, Alfred the Great, Edward the Confessor, William the Conqueror, El Cid, Thomas Becket, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Richard the Lionheart, Frederick Barbarossa, St. Francis, Marco Polo, Dante, Fra Angelico, Joan of Arc and Johannes Gutenberg. I believe that illustrations are important in helping kids (and grownups!) visualize and retain a historical narrative. So this book is richly illustrated with reproductions of historical paintings and photos of medieval artifacts. I selected mostly late 19th century and early 20th century realistic paintings to most accurately portray historical events, costumes, and environments.
