This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In approaching "The Historical Nights' Entertainment" I set myself the task of reconstructing, in the fullest possible detail and with all the colour available from surviving records, a group of more or less famous events. I would select for my purpose those which were in themselves bizarre and resulting from the interplay of human passions, and whilst relating each of these events in the form of a story, I would compel that story scrupulously to follow the actual, recorded facts without owing anything to fiction, and I would draw upon my imagination, if at all, merely as one might employ colour to fill in the outlines which history leaves grey, taking care that my colour should be as true to nature as possible. For dialogue I would depend upon such scraps of actual speech as were chronicled in each case, amplifying it by translating into terms of speech the paraphrases of contemporary chroniclers. Such was the task I set myself. I am aware that it has been attempted once or twice already, beginning, perhaps, with the "Crimes Celebres" of Alexandre Dumas. I am not aware that the attempt has ever succeeded. This is not to say that I claim success in the essays that follow. How nearly I may have approached success—judged by the standard I had set myself—how far I may have fallen short, my readers will discern. I am conscious, however, of having in the main dutifully resisted the temptation to take the easier road, to break away from restricting fact for the sake of achieving a more intriguing narrative. In one instance, however, I have quite deliberately failed, and in some others I have permitted myself certain speculations to resolve mysteries of which no explanation has been discovered. Of these it is necessary that I should make a full confession. My deliberate failure is "The Night of Nuptials." I discovered an allusion to the case of Charles the Bold and Sapphira Danvelt in Macaulay's "History of England"—quoted from an old number of the "Spectator"—whilst I was working upon the case of Lady Alice Lisle. There a similar episode is mentioned as being related of Colonel Kirke, but discredited because known for a story that has a trick of springing up to attach itself to unscrupulous captains. I set out to track it to its source, and having found its first appearance to be in connection with Charles the Bold's German captain Rhynsault, I attempted to reconstruct the event as it might have happened, setting it at least in surroundings of solid fact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strolling Saint By Rafael Sabatini my mood was finely rebellious that May morning. "Are you mad, Agostino?" gasped my mother. "I think that I am growing sane," said I very sadly. She flashed me one of her rare glances, and I saw her lips tighten. "We must talk," she said. "That girl . . .." And then she checked. "Come with me," she bade me. In that moment I remembered something, and I turned aside to look for my friend Rinolfo. The conviction that he went to plague and jeer at her, to exult over her expulsion from Mondolfo, kindled my anger all anew. "Stay! You there! Rinolfo!" I called. He stopped where he was. "Come here." I bade him. "I think you smiled just now," said I. "Heh! By Bacchus!" said he, and shrugged to give his insolence a barb. I went on, "You smiled to see your spite succeed. You smiled to see that poor child driven hence by your contriving; you smiled to see your broken snares avenged. And you were following after her no doubt to tell her all this and to smile again. This is all so, it is not?" "Heh! By Bacchus!" said he again, and at that my patience gave out utterly. Ere any could stop me I had seized him by throat and belt and shaken him savagely. "Will you answer me like a fool?" I cried. "Must you be taught sense and a proper respect of me?" I do not believe that it was in my mind to do the fellow any grievous hurt. But he was so ill-advised in that moment as to attempt to defend himself. He rashly struck at one of the arms that held him, and by the act drove me into a fury ungovernable.

Book excerpt: Ausgangsthese des Bandes ist, dass in den Jahrzehnten um 1600 die Vorstellung von 'radikalem Traditionsbruch' und 'voraussetzungslosem Neuanfang' in den Bildkünsten erstmals weithin denkbar wurde und die Gestaltung, Wahrnehmung und Einschätzung von Kunstwerken die entscheidende Rolle zu spielen begann. Neben das bislang dominierende Theoriemodell kreativer Imitatio trat damit eine grundsätzlich anders konzipierte Alternative, die Kategorie des 'Neuen' zu fassen. Zwischen diesen beiden Extremen wurde im zeitgenössischen Kunstdiskurs nun zudem eine Vielzahl von 'Zwischenlösungen' erprobt. Gefragt wird also nach der Bedeutung von Vorstellungen, Theorien und pragmatischen Umsetzungen, die auf das 'Neue' in den Bildkünsten zielten: auf der Ebene der Produktion und Rezeption von Werken ebenso wie auf derjenigen des Selbstverständnisses und der Fremdeinschätzung von Künstlern und Kunst. Die Auseinandersetzungen und Positionsbestimmungen vollzogen sich dabei nicht nur im dauernden Wechselspiel zwischen Theorie und Praxis, zwischen visuellen und sprachlichen Kategorien. Möglichkeiten und Grenzen des 'Neuen' in Kunst und Kunsttheorie wurden europaweit diskutiert und durch die Importe von 'exotischen Kunstobjekten' noch beflügelt. Der Band versteht sich als Beitrag zu einer umfassenden Bestimmung und Präzisierung des 'epistemischen Wissenswandels' in Europa um 1600.
