Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Book Synopsis The Clyde Mystery: A Study in Forgeries and Folklore by : Andrew Lang
Download or read book The Clyde Mystery: A Study in Forgeries and Folklore written by Andrew Lang and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author would scarcely have penned this little specimen of what Scott called Òantiquarian old womanries,Ó but for the interest which he takes in the universally diffused archaic patterns on rocks and stones, which offer a singular proof of the identity of the working of the human mind. Anthropology and folklore are the natural companions and aids of prehistoric and proto-historic archaeology, and suggest remarks which may not be valueless, whatever view we may take of the disputed objects from the Clyde sites. While only an open verdict on these objects is at present within the competence of science, the author, speaking for himself, must record his private opinion that, as a rule, they are ancient though anomalous. He cannot pretend to certainty as to whether the upper parts of the marine structures were throughout built of stone, as in Dr. MunroÕs theory, which is used as the fundamental assumption in this book; or whether they were of wood, as in the hypothesis of Mr. Donnelly, illustrated by him in the Glasgow Evening Times (Sept. 11, 1905). The point seems unessential. The author learns from Mr. Donnelly that experiments in shaping piles with an ancient stone axe have been made by Mr. Joseph Downes, of Irvine, as by Monsieur Hippolyte MŸller in France, with similar results, a fact which should have been mentioned in the book. It appears too, that a fragment of fallow deer horn at Dumbuck, mentioned by Dr. Munro, turned out to be Òa decayed humerus of the Bos Longifrons,Ó and therefore no evidence as to date, as post-Roman. Mr. Donnelly also protests that his records of his excavations Òwere exceptionally complete,Ó and that he Òtook daily notes and sketches of all features and finds with measurements.Ó I must mention these facts, as, in the book, I say that Mr. Donnelly Òkept no minute and hourly dated log book of his explorations, with full details as to the precise positions of the objects discovered.Ó

Book Synopsis British literature and archaeology, 1880–1930 by : Angela Blumberg
Download or read book British literature and archaeology, 1880–1930 written by Angela Blumberg and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British literature and archaeology, 1880-1930 reveals how British writers and artists across the long turn of the twentieth century engaged with archaeological discourse—its artefacts, landscapes, bodies, and methods—uncovering the materials of the past to envision radical possibilities for the present and future. This project traces how archaeology shaped major late-Victorian and modern discussions: informing debates over shifting gender roles; facilitating the development of queer iconography and the recovery of silenced or neglected histories; inspiring artefactual forgery and transforming modern conceptions of authenticity; and helping writers and artists historicise the traumas of the First World War. Ultimately unearthing archaeology at the centre of these major discourses, this book simultaneously positions literary and artistic engagements with the archaeological imagination as forms of archaeological knowledge in themselves.
