Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jacobean Embroidery: Its Forms and Fillings, Including Late Tudor It is curious how in English embroideries there has always been a predilection on the part of the designers for interlacing stems, and for the inconsequent introduction of birds and beasts. Mons de F arcy, author of La Broderie du Onzi'eme si'ecle jusqu' 2t 1205 jours, remarks that it seems that the position of England, surrounded by the sea on all sides, has provoked in its inhabitants the passion of travelling over the sea, and they came to know, before continental nations, of the parrots and other birds of brilliant plumage so often reproduced in their needlework.

Download or read book A Book of Old Embroidery (Classic Reprint) written by A. F. Kendrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Old Embroidery There are two obvious points of view from which the consideration of the handicrafts may be approached - of the worker and of the user. In the case of embroidery these persons are often one and the same. In ancient and mediaeval times the dividing line was probably still harder to draw than it is now, and in an ideal state of things maker and user, worker and wearer, would be more closely identified than at present. There need be no fear that this would tend to depress any legitimate professional trade it would simply add to the amount of embroidery we should see around us and increase the general appreciation in which it would be held. It is for all alike. The most exalted names have added to their claim to remembrance and honour by their skill and interest in embroidery, and the work of the lowliest often merits a place of distinc tion, as many a peasant's frock or child's sampler bears witness (plates 11 and A tradition like this could be kept up, and there is no reason why it should not be done. The materials and implements needed are few, simple and inexpensive. Long and arduous training is of course needed in this, as in everything else, for the most accomplished work, and all honour to those who have devoted so much of their lives to the task. But a beginner's efforts, under due guidance, are Often admirable in their way. The help and encouragement of trained teachers and skilled amateurs, never more readily and ungrudgingly given than at the present time, are of much promise for the future.

Download or read book Dracula written by Matei Cazacu and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in French in 2004, Matei Cazacu’s Dracula remains the most authoritative scholarly biography of the Wallachian prince Vlad III the Impaler (1448, 1456-1462, 1476). Its core is an exhaustively researched reconstruction of Dracula’s life and political career, using original sources in more than nine languages. In addition Cazacu traces Dracula’s metamorphosis, at the hands of contemporary propagandists, into variously a bloodthirsty tyrant, and an early modern “great sovereign.” Beyond this Cazacu explores Dracula’s transformation into “the vampire prince” in literature, film and folklore, with surprising new discoveries on Bram Stoker’s sources for his novel. In this first English translation, the text and bibliography are updated, and readers are provided with an appendix of the key sources for Dracula’s life, in fresh and accurate English translations.

Book Synopsis The Enemy at the Gate by : Andrew Wheatcroft
Download or read book The Enemy at the Gate written by Andrew Wheatcroft and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1683, an Ottoman army that stretched from horizon to horizon set out to seize the "Golden Apple," as Turks referred to Vienna. The ensuing siege pitted battle-hardened Janissaries wielding seventeenth-century grenades against Habsburg armies, widely feared for their savagery. The walls of Vienna bristled with guns as the besieging Ottoman host launched bombs, fired cannons, and showered the populace with arrows during the battle for Christianity's bulwark. Each side was sustained by the hatred of its age-old enemy, certain that victory would be won by the grace of God. The Great Siege of Vienna is the centerpiece for historian Andrew Wheatcroft's richly drawn portrait of the centuries-long rivalry between the Ottoman and Habsburg empires for control of the European continent. A gripping work by a master historian, The Enemy at the Gate offers a timely examination of an epic clash of civilizations.
Book Synopsis That Greece Might Still be Free by : William St. Clair
Download or read book That Greece Might Still be Free written by William St. Clair and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When in 1821, the Greeks rose in violent revolution against the rule of the Ottoman Turks, waves of sympathy spread across Western Europe and the United States. More than a thousand volunteers set out to fight for the cause. The Philhellenes, whether they set out to recreate the Athens of Pericles, start a new crusade, or make money out of a war, all felt that Greece had unique claim on the sympathy of the world. As Byron wrote, 'I dreamed that Greece might Still be Free'; and he died at Missolonghi trying to translate that dream into reality. William St Clair's meticulously researched and highly readable account of their aspirations and experiences was hailed as definitive when it was first published. Long out of print, it remains the standard account of the Philhellenic movement and essential reading for any students of the Greek War of Independence, Byron, and European Romanticism. Its relevance to more modern ethnic and religious conflicts is becoming increasingly appreciated by scholars worldwide. This new and revised edition includes a new Introduction by Roderick Beaton, an updated Bibliography and many new illustrations.

Book excerpt: Before us lies the valley of the Drave, one of those endless wildernesses where even the wild beast loses its way. Forests everywhere, maples and aspens a thousand years old, with their roots under water; magnificent morasses the surface of which is covered, not with reeds and water-lilies, but with gigantic trees, from the dependent branches of which the vivifying waters force fresh roots. Here the swan builds her nest; here too dwell the royal heron, the blind crow, the golden plover, and other man-shunning animals which are rarely if ever seen in more habitable regions.
