Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heraldry, English and Foreign: With a Dictionary of Heraldic Terms I, Heraldry, as its name implies, was in its origin a purely military art, and, according to Spener, Menestrier, and other writers, originated in its modern form from the tournaments instituted (or, at least, brought into perfect organization) by the Emperor Henry the Fowler (c. 950) for the purpose of keeping up the military spirit among the knightly families of that early day during intervals of peace, and promoting courage and dexterity by means of such martial exercises. More critical inquiries into the origin of these assemblies carry them back a century earlier, when a great gathering of knights and their retainers for military games was held at Worms.

Similarly I would hope (not as an ingenious speculation) that those who have enjoyed the study of Heraldry may, each in turn, contribute in some measure to extend the knowledge of this delightful science and help to remove the ignorance and confusion which exists, until every person knows, and ceases to violate, its simple rules.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Heraldry, Historical and Popular Historical Heraldry occupies a position of such impor tance in Histories of England, that a certain amount of heraldic knowledge has become indispensable to the. Student of English History. Every Gothic Architect ought to be a thorough Herald. Heraldry alone can enable him to render his works, in the noblest and most perfect sense, historic monuments.

Book Synopsis Familiar Introduction to Heraldry (Classic Reprint) by : Archibald Barrington
Download or read book Familiar Introduction to Heraldry (Classic Reprint) written by Archibald Barrington and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Familiar Introduction to Heraldry A knowledge of Heraldry has been at all times reckoned among the accomplishments of a gentleman, and considered to form at least a graceful, if not a useful adjunct, in every system of liberal education. In the present day, however, when everything which is calculated to throw light upon the customs and habits of thought of our ancestors during the period of the middle ages is sought for with avidity, it has especial claims upon our notice. If History be indebted for its true exposition to the labours of the antiquary, so is the antiquary indebted to the herald for many of the facts which illustrate his narrative; in marshalling before our view the stirring events of feudal times, the picture which represents the knight would be incomplete without that of the attendant herald, whose duty it was to blazon his arms and give proof of his descent. Nor was the presence of the latter less necessary in the palace of the sovereign, to arrange the pageantry of princes; or in the battle field of the warrior, to apply the knowledge of his art in the melancholy task of reckoning the number of the noble dead, and by his sad inventory of their rank, to measure the amount and import of the victory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Heraldry: An Encyclopedia of Armory Another fruitful sou1ce of error is the effort which has frequently been made to assimilate the laws of Armory prevailing in the three different Kingdoms into one single series of rules and regula tions Some writers have even gone so far as to attempt to assimilate with our own the rules and regulations which hold upon the Continent. As a matter of fact, many of the laws of Arms in England and Scotland are radically different and care needs to be taken to point out these differences.

Download or read book Peeps at Heraldry (Classic Reprint) written by Phoebe Allen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-06 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peeps at Heraldry The art of heraldry, or armoury, as the old writers called it, consists in blazoning the arms and telling the descent and history of families by certain pictorial Signs. Thus from age to age an authenticated register of genealogies has been kept and handed on from gener ation to generation. The making and keeping of these records have always been the special duty of a duly appointed herald. Perhaps you think that explanation of heraldry sounds rather dull, but you will soon find out that very much that is interesting and amusing, too, is associated with the study of armorial bearings. For heraldry, which, you know, was reckoned as one of the prime glories of chivalry, is the language that keeps alive the golden deeds done in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heraldry in America In America, quite as really as elsewhere, acquaintance with heraldic laws is indispensable to the architect, artist, and author, and to lovers of the fine arts and of literature. How many blunders in our art and absurdities in our literature might have been avoided had not Americans of a certain class assumed lofty indifference to a science they had taken little trouble to under stand! Appreciation of the great works of the brush, the chisel, and the pen that come to us from or are studied by us in other lands must be largely impossible to persons who are unfamiliar with heraldry. Aside from such practical questions, it is always pleasant, as Boutell says, to be familiar with the heraldic blazonry that appears upon the panels of aristocratic carriages. Nor is it less satisfactory when we chance to see a flag displayed and blowing out in the breeze, or when our eyes rest upon an heraldic seal, or when we discover a shield of arms in a book or on a monu ment, or amidst the decorative accessories of some building, to be able to read what heraldry thus has written with her peculiar symbols.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manual of Heraldry: A Concise Description of the Several Terms Used and Containing a Dictionary of Every Designation in the Science The great revival which has taken place in the study and appreciation of the Science of Heraldry, and the wider and more intelligent interest now taken in armory, has induced the publisher to issue a new and revised edition of this work. This Opportunity has been taken to enlarge and improve the Dictionary of Heraldic Terms, and to cut out much of the repetition which was contained in the opening chap ters of the previous editions. The Space thus gained has been used to give a larger and, in the light of modern research, more correct view of the Origin of Arms, and to add chapters on the Law and Right to Arms and on the Heraldic Executive. The chapter formerly given on Precedence has been entirely superseded by inserting the tables now in use in England and in Scotland, and the whole book has been so revised and rewritten as to form practically a new work.
