Book Synopsis Book of Beasts by : Elizabeth Morrison
Download or read book Book of Beasts written by Elizabeth Morrison and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2019 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A celebration of the visual contributions of the bestiary--one of the most popular types of illuminated books during the Middle Ages--and an exploration of its lasting legacy. Brimming with lively animals both real and fantastic, the bestiary was one of the great illuminated manuscript traditions of the Middle Ages. Encompassing imaginary creatures such as the unicorn, siren, and griffin; exotic beasts including the tiger, elephant, and ape; as well as animals native to Europe like the beaver, dog, and hedgehog, the bestiary is a vibrant testimony to the medieval understanding of animals and their role in the world. So iconic were the stories and images of the bestiary that its beasts essentially escaped from the pages, appearing in a wide variety of manuscripts and other objects, including tapestries, ivories, metalwork, and sculpture. With over 270 color illustrations and contributions by twenty-five leading scholars, this gorgeous volume explores the bestiary and its widespread influence on medieval art and culture as well as on modern and contemporary artists like Pablo Picasso and Damien Hirst. Published to accompany an exhibition on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center May 14 to August 18, 2019.

Download or read book Beasts of Britain written by Andy McGrath and published by Hangar 1 Publishing. This book was released on 2021-08-19 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beasts Of Britain is a book by Andy McGrath, a Cryptozoology 'enthusiast' who has spent over 25 years of researching and obsessing about the unknown creatures living right under our noses here on this tiny island in the North Atlantic. From a wildlife point of view, the accepted fauna of The British Isles were discovered and catalogued in their finite and immovable state in the 19th century. Nothing has really been added to this list or considered worthy since and the continual reports of Water Monsters, Bigfoot, Mystery Big Cats and U.F.C's (Unidentified Flying Cryptids) are largely ignored or used as newspaper fillers to entertain us. Andy's focus is on current research and sightings, pictures, videos and eyewitness accounts of the many cryptids of the British Isles. Although vast advancements in science and technology have brought great discoveries in other lesser known parts of the world, our island lies largely underexplored and overlooked. At night, outside of the busy cities and next to the unlit lakes and lonely mountains it is an island in darkness, where nobody ventures into the woods anymore and the pervading paradigm scare all but the most foolhardy scientists away from any serious investigation of the many yet to be discovered - Beasts Of Britain.

Repeatedly the chapters in the collection encounter the contemporary relevance of our fears of the sea and its inhabitants – through the dehumanising media depictions of refugees in the Mediterranean to the encroaching ecological disasters of global warming, pollution and the threat of mass marine extinction.
Book Synopsis The Serpent Within the Beast by : S. Col�n
Download or read book The Serpent Within the Beast written by S. Col�n and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many times have you heard incomplete facts explaining why the dinosaurs and prehistoric man walked on the earth? Have these theories given by man left you more confused and unsure of what the truth really is? First Corinthians 14:33 tells us, gFor God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. h Who is really behind the mystery of evolution that leaves you confused and unsure of what to believe? Job 41:32 warns of Satan fs deception as the mighty sea serpent, "He maketh a path to shine after him, one would think the deep to be hoary (to appear ancient or old)." The confusion of evolution comes from a spiritual power struggle between God, "the Creator", and Satan, "the counterfeiter" who is reaching for his own glory over the earth's inhabitance. John 8:44 says of Satan, "When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar, and the father of it." In all reality, why would God create the primary dinosaurs that cause doubt in Him and continues to rob Him of His glory of a perfect creation? As you read The Serpent Within The Beast, you will discover Satan fs hidden power to deceive mankind through the discovery of the giant prehistoric bones and fossils. Satan is the evil counterfeiter of the ways of God which dates back to before God created perfect flesh on the earth. Through Satan fs powers to do great wonders, he said, gI will be like the Most High, h and attempted to exalt himself as a god. Now learn how, when, and why the earth struggles with evolution fs past, as we journey through the Word of God to unveil Satan fs lies of deception. This book clearly provides a complete biblical explanation of why the dinosaurs and prehistoric man came into existence and of their destruction as it is written in God fs Word.
Book Synopsis The Second Jurassic Dinosaur Rush by : Paul D. Brinkman
Download or read book The Second Jurassic Dinosaur Rush written by Paul D. Brinkman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The so-called “Bone Wars” of the 1880s, which pitted Edward Drinker Cope against Othniel Charles Marsh in a frenzy of fossil collection and discovery, may have marked the introduction of dinosaurs to the American public, but the second Jurassic dinosaur rush, which took place around the turn of the twentieth century, brought the prehistoric beasts back to life. These later expeditions—which involved new competitors hailing from leading natural history museums in New York, Chicago, and Pittsburgh—yielded specimens that would be reconstructed into the colossal skeletons that thrill visitors today in museum halls across the country. Reconsidering the fossil speculation, the museum displays, and the media frenzy that ushered dinosaurs into the American public consciousness, Paul Brinkman takes us back to the birth of dinomania, the modern obsession with all things Jurassic. Featuring engaging and colorful personalities and motivations both altruistic and ignoble, The Second Jurassic Dinosaur Rush shows that these later expeditions were just as foundational—if not more so—to the establishment of paleontology and the budding collections of museums than the more famous Cope and Marsh treks. With adventure, intrigue, and rivalry, this is science at its most swashbuckling.

Book Synopsis Animals Behaving Badly by : Linda Lombardi
Download or read book Animals Behaving Badly written by Linda Lombardi and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-10-04 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's a lot that animals don't want you to know, and the better their public image, the worse their secrets are: gang-rapist dolphins; lazy, infanticidal lions; and, of course, our own dogs, who eat our money, set our houses on fire, and in more than one case, actually shoot their owners with guns. Animals Behaving Badly shows that animals are just like us: gluttonous, selfish, violent, lustful, and always looking out for number one. Using anecdotes from the news and from scientific research, Linda Lombardi pokes fun at our softhearted preconceptions about animals, makes us feel a little better about humanity's basest impulses, and painlessly teaches us a bit more about our furry and feathered friends. You'll learn: Bees love alcohol: even, says one researcher, more than college students Pandas enjoy pornographic movies-they're particularly aroused by the soundtrack-and macaques will pay with juice to look at dirty pictures A rabbit who lives in a pub in England is addicted to gambling with a slot machine African elephants raised by teenage mothers form violent youth gangs
