Download or read book History on Film/Film on History written by Robert A. Rosenstone and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History on Film/Film on History has established itself as a classic treatise on the historical film and its role in bringing the past to life. In the fourth edition of this widely acclaimed text, Robert A. Rosenstone argues that to leave history films out of the discussion of the meaning of the past is to ignore a major means of understanding historical events. This book examines what history films convey about the past and how they convey it, demonstrating the need to learn how to read and understand this new visual world and integrating detailed analysis of films such as Schindler’s List, Glory, October, and Reds. Advocating for the dramatic feature as a legitimate way of doing history, this edition includes a new Preface and a new chapter that focuses on films produced in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, India, and East Asia. Examining the codes and conventions of how these films tell us about the past and providing guidance on how to effectively analyse films as historical interpretations, this book is an essential introduction to the field for students of history and film.

Book excerpt: In a bizarre twist of events, Callo falls into the Cavern of the Righteous and emerges elsewhere, from a forgotten cave. His leg is still broken, but Mishami carries him into an impressive land full of both sublime beauty and vicious horrors. The fourth Companion arises and starts training. June is traveling with a group of people as different from one another as snowflakes, and Jray drags June into fighting warriors for money. Diamond who is cursed, compliments of Seamus and Gema, must choose between a life of loneliness or dangerous love. Kara discovers her true identity as the Red Companion during a brief sojourn with the Dragon Warriors. And one of Karl’s Gifted almost gets murdered by a creature who used to be Gallo. The Blue, Red and Black Companions are all on their way to the Castle. However, bounty hunters, Destroyers, demons, Hagos, and Creepers sent by Klastos hunt them down, and go into fiery battle. In the meantime, Opal, Wagner and Pop Tolenko must perform a Rite of Unity to evade soldiers, and Ethos demands that Uhna betray her husband or die under the Athany curse. In this third book of the series, lives are lost, new allies join the Companions and Magi, and they are trapped in a web of terror woven by the impending civil war between the Falesto brothers. The lives of all races in the Empire are teetering on the edge of destruction, and the Gifted Magi must unite before the Falestos’ plots to transform all non-humans into walking demons to fight the expansion battles become a reality. Clashes of Wills is the third book in the Assembly of Thirteen series where the magic of the few with honor repeatedly clash with the cruelty of the wills of those in power.

Book Synopsis Seats of Power in Europe during the Hundred Years War by : Anthony Emery
Download or read book Seats of Power in Europe during the Hundred Years War written by Anthony Emery and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-12-31 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hundred Years’ War between England and France is a story of an epic conflict between two nations whose destinies became inextricably entwined throughout the later Middle Ages. During that time the balance of architectural power moved from religious to secular domination, the Gothic form continued to grow and the palace-fortress was in the ascendancy. Seats of Power in Europe is a major new study of the residences of the crowned heads and the royal ducal families of the countries involved in the Hundred Years’ War. Though they were the leading protagonists and therefore responsible for the course of the war, do their residences reflect an entirely defensive purpose, a social function, or the personality of their builders? As well as the castles of England and France it also looks at rulers residences in other European countries who supported one of the protagonists. They include Scotland, Castile, Aragon, Navarre, Portugal, the Low Countries, the imperial territories of Bohemia, and the papacy in Avignon and then Rome. The study concentrates on sixty properties extending from the castles at Windsor and Denilworth to those at Saumur and Rambures, and from the palaces at Avignon and Seville to the manor-houses at Germolles and Launay. A number of subsidiary or associated properties are also considered in more broad-based sections. Each region and its residences are prefaced by supporting historical and architectural surveys to help position the properties against the contemporary military, financial, and aesthetic backgrounds. Extensively illustrated in full color with over 120 photographs and over 70 plans this is an attractive and accessible overview of how architecture both shaped and was influenced by events during this tumultuous period in the history of Europe. Essential reading for students of architecture, architectural historians, historians and those interested in Medieval Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning author Carolyn Meyer's ANASTASIA is back in print with a gorgeous new package! Anastasia is the youngest daughter of Czar Nicholas II, ruler of Russia. Anastasia is used to a life of luxury; her major concerns are how to get out of her detested schoolwork to play in the snow, go ice-skating, or have picnics. She wears diamonds and rubies, and every morning her mother, the princess, tells her which matching outfit she and her three sisters shall wear that day. It's a fairy tale life -- until everything changes with the outbreak of war between Russia and Germany. As Russia enters WWI, hunger and poverty grows among the peasants, and soon they are not pleased with their ruler. While the czar is trying win a war and save their country, the country is turning on the royal family. When her father and the rest of the family are imprisoned by the Bolsheviks, suddenly Anastasia understands what this war is costing the people. In the pages of her diary, Anastasia chronicles the wealth and luxury of her royal days, as well as the fall from power, and her uncertain fate.
