Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures of Famous Travellers in Many Lands: With Descriptions of Manners, Customs, and Places; Thrilling Adventures on Land and Sea The adventures of travellers and descriptions of foreign countries and people, afi'ord us the same kind of pleasure which we derive from the perusal of the most high wrought romance. But true narrations must always possess one great advantage over fiction, in the simple circumstance of their truth. It is a great satisfaction to the reader to know that the perils and labors which excite his kindly sympathy are real and not the mere coinage of the romancer's brain.

The patriarch did most kindly entertain us at his house; so did also all the Amaronites of the other villages, who met us in our way, before we came to their towns, and brought presents with them of bread, wine, sigs, olives, salads, capons, eggs, and such like, as they could on a sudden provide. This bishop or patriarch's house is joined with, and hemmed in within the face of an The bijbop os high rock, that serveth for three sides Eden on Li-thereof, the fore and fourth part bebanus. ing only of mason-work. Near unto which falleth precipitately a great torrent over the sasfinous bank, that maketh a grievous noise night and day; which, as I told him, I thought it should turn the bishop stark deaf. But the homely and simple man, (not puffed up with ambitious greed, and glorious apparel, like to our proud prelates in Christendom), told me, that continual custom brought him to dispose upon the day, and sleep better in the night, because of the sounding waters. Where reposing with him one night, my muse the next morning saluted Libanus with these lines.

Download or read book Luxury Arts of the Renaissance written by Marina Belozerskaya and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today we associate the Renaissance with painting, sculpture, and architecture—the “major” arts. Yet contemporaries often held the “minor” arts—gem-studded goldwork, richly embellished armor, splendid tapestries and embroideries, music, and ephemeral multi-media spectacles—in much higher esteem. Isabella d’Este, Marchesa of Mantua, was typical of the Italian nobility: she bequeathed to her children precious stone vases mounted in gold, engraved gems, ivories, and antique bronzes and marbles; her favorite ladies-in-waiting, by contrast, received mere paintings. Renaissance patrons and observers extolled finely wrought luxury artifacts for their exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic capital of their components; paintings and sculptures in modest materials, although discussed by some literati, were of lesser consequence. This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.

Download or read book A Little History of the World written by E. H. Gombrich and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E. H. Gombrich's Little History of the World, though written in 1935, has become one of the treasures of historical writing since its first publication in English in 2005. The Yale edition alone has now sold over half a million copies, and the book is available worldwide in almost thirty languages. Gombrich was of course the best-known art historian of his time, and his text suggests illustrations on every page. This illustrated edition of the Little History brings together the pellucid humanity of his narrative with the images that may well have been in his mind's eye as he wrote the book. The two hundred illustrations—most of them in full color—are not simple embellishments, though they are beautiful. They emerge from the text, enrich the author's intention, and deepen the pleasure of reading this remarkable work. For this edition the text is reset in a spacious format, flowing around illustrations that range from paintings to line drawings, emblems, motifs, and symbols. The book incorporates freshly drawn maps, a revised preface, and a new index. Blending high-grade design, fine paper, and classic binding, this is both a sumptuous gift book and an enhanced edition of a timeless account of human history.
