Book Synopsis The Material Culture of the Jacobites by : Neil Guthrie
Download or read book The Material Culture of the Jacobites written by Neil Guthrie and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jacobites, adherents of the exiled King James II of England and VII of Scotland and his descendants, continue to command attention long after the end of realistic Jacobite hopes down to the present. Extraordinarily, the promotion of the Jacobite cause and adherence to it were recorded in a rich and highly miscellaneous store of objects, including medals, portraits, pin-cushions, glassware and dice-boxes. Interdisciplinary and highly illustrated, this book combines legal and art history to survey the extensive material culture associated with Jacobites and Jacobitism. Neil Guthrie considers the attractions and the risks of making, distributing and possessing 'things of danger'; their imagery and inscriptions; and their place in a variety of contexts in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Finally, he explores the many complex reasons underlying the long-lasting fascination with the Jacobites.
Download or read book Delftware written by Michael Archer and published by H.M. Stationery Office. This book was released on 1997 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tin-glazed pottery was imported from the Mediterranean over 500 years ago, but Delftware, with its distinctive blue-and-white designs influenced by Chinese porcelain, was first made in Northern Europe in the Netherlands, and subsequently in the burgeoning English potteries for the affluent middle classes. Changing fashions and the emergence of new materials and manufacturing techniques forced the obsolescence of Delftware by 1840, and pieces today command very high prices. Every piece in this catalogue is illustrated, in many cases with more than one view. The book also contains authoritative essays which provide a wider context for Delftware.

Book Synopsis The Tower of London in English Renaissance Drama by : Kristen Deiter
Download or read book The Tower of London in English Renaissance Drama written by Kristen Deiter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-02-23 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tower of London in English Renaissance Drama historicizes the Tower of London's evolving meanings in English culture alongside its representations in twenty-four English history plays, 1579-c.1634, by William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and others. While Elizabeth I, James I, and Charles I fashioned the Tower as a showplace of royal authority, magnificence, and entertainment, many playwrights of the time revealed the Tower's instability as a royal symbol and represented it, instead, as an emblem of opposition to the crown and as a bodily and spiritual icon of non-royal English identity.

Book Synopsis Clay Tobacco-pipes, with Particular Reference to the Bristol Industry by : Iain C. Walker
Download or read book Clay Tobacco-pipes, with Particular Reference to the Bristol Industry written by Iain C. Walker and published by National Historic Parks and Sites Branch, Parks Canada. This book was released on 1977 with total page 1036 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study considers clay tobacco-pipe manufacture with specific reference to the industry in Bristol. As a background, the basic archaeological usefulness of clay pipes as a means to date sites is outlined, the introduction of tobacco to Europeans considered, and the various methods of tobacco-taking over the centuries examined. An extensive examination of clay-pipe manufacturing processes in France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Great Britain and the US is made, along with a history of the pipe industry in most of these countries. The pipemaking industries in five centres; Liverpool, Chester, Glasgow, Montreal, and East London, are considered and related to the Bristol situation. Also considers production costs for clay pipes and wages earned by pipemakers. The origins, rise, decline, re-emergence, and final demise of the Bristol clay-pipe industry is examined in detail in the light of documentary and archaeological evidence. Trends are noted from the apprenticeship rolls, burgess books, poll-books, and trade directories and the interrelationships of the evidence are evaluated. Also considers the historical and socio-economic background of the ghetto of St. Jude's, a pipemaking area.
