The Medicalization of Everyday Life: Selected Essays

2007 y.
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
Description: Defining `medicalization` as the perception of nonmedical conditions as medical problems and nondiseases as diseases, Thomas Szasz has devoted much of his career to exposing the dangers of `medicalizing` the conditions of some who simply refuse to conform to society`s expectations. Szasz argues that modern psychiatry`s tireless ambition to explain the human condition has led to the treatment of life`s difficulties and oddities as clinical illnesses rather than as humanity revealed in its fullness. This collection of impassioned essays, published between 1973 and 2006, chronicles the author`s long campaign against the orthodoxies of psychiatry. From `Medicine to Magic` to `Medicine as Social Control,` the book delves into the fascinating history of medicalization, including `The Discovery of Drug Addiction,` `Persecutions for Witchcraft and Drugcraft,` and `Food Abuse and Foodaholism.` In a society that has little tolerance for those who live outside its rules, Dr. Szasz`s… [detailed...]

The Medici Conspiracy: The Illicit Journey of Looted Antiquities--From Italy`s Tomb Raiders to the World`s Greatest Museums

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A true-life thriller completely exposes the network behind the illegal trade in ancient artifacts--and features a rich cast of rogues and some of the world`s most prestigious art institutions The story begins, as stories do in all good thrillers, with a botched robbery and a police chase. Eight Apuleian vases of the fourth century B.C. are discovered in the swimming pool of a German-based art smuggler. More valuable than the recovery of the vases, however, is the discovery of the smuggler`s card index detailing his deals and dealers. It reveals the existence of a web of tombaroli -tomb raiders-who steal classical artifacts, and a network of dealers and smugglers who spirit them out of Italy and into the hands of wealthy collectors and museums. Peter Watson, a former investigative journalist for the London Sunday Times and author of two previous exposes of art world scandals, names the key figures in this network that has depleted Europe`s classical artifacts….

The Medieval Author in Medieval French Literature (Studies in Arthurian and Courtly Cultures)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In medieval French literature there are no Authors, only authors--and enigmas. Is the medieval author a name or a function, an authority or an image? The way we answer questions shapes how we think about names such as Jean de Meun and Guillaume de Machaut, or lesser-known figures like Gerbert de Montreuil, Gautier de Coincy, or David Aubert. The essays in this volume create a prism through which to understand medieval authorship as a process and the medieval author as an agency in the making. This book will appeal to all those who are interested in theoretical approaches to authorship and could serve as an introduction to medieval French literature for sophisticated readers. For specialists it delivers an assessment of current theoretical and methodological issues in medieval studies. [detailed...]

The Medieval Flower Book

2008 y.
Publisher: British Library
Description: In our modern world, the spiny-stemmed flowers, intertwined leaves, and delicate pink blossoms of the rubus fruticosus, or common blackberry bramble, might catch the eye of the casual observer or weekend gardener. Pleasant, prolific, and decorative, plants like the blackberry are looked upon as sources for harvest, landscape, and visual pleasure. To the medieval and Renaissance artist, however, these botanicals were far more. Part of a richly symbolic visual language culled from the classical era, their exquisite depiction in illuminated manuscripts of the age evoked fertility, conjured bad dreams, and even aligned itself with ancient wisdom. The popular and enduring appeal of flowers in medieval art and literature extended beyond simple botanical illustration, instead, flowers helped to tell countless stories without words through potent symbolic imagery. The Medieval Flower Book artfully presents an alphabetical collection of over 100 of the major flowers that appear… [detailed...]

Description: This is a catalogue of the pre-Gothic Revival stained glass found at 57 sites in Lancashire. Many of these are churches, but there are also domestic halls, museums, and schools. Highlights include important glazing dating from the 14th and 15th centuries at Cartmel Priory, a major window of c.1500 depicting the legend of St Helen at Ashton-under-Lyne, a sixteenth-century Seven Sacraments window at Cartmel Fell, fine imported 15th- and 16th-century continental panels at Chorley, and above all the magnificent but hitherto virtually unknown collection belonging to the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. The introduction discusses many aspects of the stained glass of both Lancashire and the neighboring county of Cheshire: documentary sources, donors and heraldry, condition, iconography, as well as examining the style and techniques used by the glass-painters. The county`s indigenous surviving glass mostly dates from the 16th century and while it is predominantly heraldic, several… [detailed...]
