Book Synopsis Illuminated Manuscripts by : Richard Hayman
Download or read book Illuminated Manuscripts written by Richard Hayman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminated manuscripts are among the most beautiful, precious and mysterious works of Western art. Before the printing press was invented, books were produced by hand and their illustration using brightly coloured pigments and gold embellishments was a labour of love and an act of piety in itself. The results are stunning. The works emanating from the scriptoria of monasteries were mainly religious texts, including illuminated bibles, psalters, and works for private devotion known as books of hours. Illuminated Manuscripts describes the origin and history of illumination in the Middle Ages, covering the artists and their techniques, and the patrons who commissioned them. It explains the subject matter found in medieval works, such as saints and Bible stories and the use of ornamental flourishes, and is illustrated with many fine examples of the genre including the Lindisfarne Gospels and the Book of Kells.

Book Synopsis Before the Melting Pot by : Joyce D. Goodfriend
Download or read book Before the Melting Pot written by Joyce D. Goodfriend and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1994-10-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its earliest days under English rule, New York City had an unusually diverse ethnic makeup, with substantial numbers of Dutch, English, Scottish, Irish, French, German, and Jewish immigrants, as well as a large African-American population. Joyce Goodfriend paints a vivid portrait of this society, exploring the meaning of ethnicity in early America and showing how colonial settlers of varying backgrounds worked out a basis for coexistence. She argues that, contrary to the prevalent notion of rapid Anglicization, ethnicity proved an enduring force in this small urban society well into the eighteenth century.
