The Treasures of Leonardo da Vinci

2006 y.
Publisher: Collins
Description: Leonardo da Vinci is often considered the master of the Renaissance and hailed as a genius ahead of his time. Most famous for such works as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper , Leonardo da Vinci was more than a painter of extraordinary skill.

Beautifully illustrated, the book also contains 30 items of rare memorabilia, including: the record of Leonardo`s birth made by his grandfather in 1452 Leonardo`s copy of his letter to Ludovico Sforza, the Duke of Milan from 1483 the passport given to Leonardo by Cesare Borgia Leonardo`s map of Imola an extract from Leonardo`s notes on machines that polish mirrors pages from Antonio de Beatis`s diary mentioning the Mona Lisa … [detailed...]

The Treasury of Celtic Knots

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description A step-by-step guide to drawing Celtic knots, the most widely appealing form within the rich repertoire of Celtic design. This comprehensive survey of Celtic knot design is based on the canon of traditional knot patterns collected by the father of the nineteenth-century Celtic Art revival, John Romilly Allen. His work has inspired generations of modern Celtic artists, but until now his definitive collection of knots from authentic sources has only been available in an obscure academic journal. Aidan Meehan`s Treasury is the most complete compendium available on these marvelously decorative and versatile designs. He first presents all the Celtic knots that Romilly Allen discovered, making each pattern intelligible with detailed instructions that show the primary, secondary, and tertiary dot grids, and then finishes the designs that the earlier artist provided. The knots are no longer clipped out of context, with loose ends, but developed into whole… [detailed...]

Publisher: Thames and Hudson
Description: The pioneering work of John Romilly Alien, more than a century ago, Inspired generations of Celtic artists. But until now his definitive collection of the surviving repertoire of Celtic knots from authentic sources has only been available in an obscure academic journal. In `Celtic Knots: Mastering the Traditional Tatterns` famed Celtic artist Aidan Meehan explained the basics of knotwork in a programmed course, using one knot - the simplest -as a building block. Now he not only presents all the knots as Romilly Alien found them, but finishes the figures he provided, so that they are no Longer clipped out of context, with loose ends, but developed into whole new ornaments, shown in two colours and in a variety of treatments. For the first time, and for the widest of audiences, Aldan Meehan`s `Treasury` establishes these designs as a common inheritance, the marvellously decorative and versatile surviving canon of Celtic knots. After discovering the triple - grid… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionFrom the fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries, Europe witnessed significant new developments in the science and art of perspective. This comprehensive and insightful book identifies and discusses the multiple discourses produced onperspective throughout this period by such authors as Leonardo da Vinci, Piero della Francesca, Albrecht Durer, Sebastiano Serlio, and Matteo Zaccolini. Fifteen distinguished scholars provide commentary on the complex history and variable nature of early modern perspective studies, addressing issues of reception, dissemination, citation, longevity, format, and imagery. These studies revise our understanding of how perspective theory and practice evolved over time and how this unique species of publication affected the course of art, architecture, and mathematics in early modern Europe.

Bharati Mukherjee
The Tree Bride: A Novel

2006 y.
Publisher: Hyperion
Description: Book Critics Circle Award-winner Bharati Mukherjee has long been known not only for her elegant, evocative prose but also for her characters- influenced by ancient customs and traditions but also very much rooted in modern times. In The Tree Bride, the narrator, Tara Chatterjee (whom readers will remember from Desirable Daughters), picks up the story of an East Bengali ancestor. According to legend, at the age of five Tara Lata married a tree and eventually emerged as a nationalist freedom fighter. In piecing together her ancestor`s transformation from a docile Bengali Brahmin girl-child into an impassioned organizer of resistance against the British Raj, the contemporary narrator discovers and lays claim to unacknowledged elements in her `American` identity. Although the story of the Tree Bride is central, the drama surrounding the narrator, a divorced woman trying to get back with her husband, moves the novel back and forth through time and across continents.

What began as a military staple in the mid 1800s has become a cornerstone of the 21st century wardrobe, striking an enviable balance between form and function. Its straight-forward, structured design captures the essence of the individual, from the mystique of a private investigator`s coat, the sinister allure of a leather trench, or the seduction of a belted sheath with nothing underneath. `The Trench Book` explores the evolution of this outerwear icon through the pages of history, the legends of film, and the tastemakers of fashion. A richly illustrated tour through high society, old Hollywood, catwalks, and street cafes, `The Trench Book` serves as a unique timeline of one perfect coat. Формат: 15,5 см x 21,5 см. [detailed...]

Daniel Berrigan
The Trial of the Catonsville Nine

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOn May 17, 1968, at the height of the Vietnam War, nine men and women entered a Selective Service office outside Baltimore. They removed military draft records, took them outside, and set them afire with napalm. The Catholic activistsinvolved in this protest against the war included Daniel and Philip Berrigan, all were found guilt of destroying government property and sentenced to three years in jail. Dan Berrigan fled, and later turned himself in. The Berrigans and their colleagues went on to lives spent struggling against war, poverty, and injustice. And The Trial of the Catonsville Nine became a powerful expression of the conflicts between conscience and conduct, power and justice, law and morality. Drawing on court transcripts, Berrigan wrote a dramatic account of the trial and the issues it so vividly embodied. The result is a landmark work of art that been performed frequently over the past thirty-five years, both as a piece of theater and as a motion… [detailed...]

Kafka
The Trial

2008 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Classics
Description: When people use the adjective `Kafkaesque`, it is `The Trial` they have in mind - the nightmarish world of Joseph K., where the rules are hidden from even the highest officials, and any help there may be comes from unexpected sources. K. is never told what he is on trial for, and when he says he is innocent, he is immediately asked `innocent of what`? Is he perhaps on trial for his innocence? Could he have freed himself from the proceedings by confessing his guilt as a human being? Has the trial been set up because he is incapable of admitting his guilt, and hence his humanity? `The Trial` is a chilling and at the same time blackly amusing tale that maintains, to the very end, a constant, relentless atmosphere of disorientation and quirkiness. Superficially the subject-matter is bureaucracy, but the story`s great strength is its description of the effect on the life and mind of Josef K. It is in the last resort a description of the absurdity of `normal` human nature. Формат:… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionLenny Bruce?s words had the power to provoke laughter and debate?as well as shock and outrage. It was the force of his voice that would place him on the wrong side of the law in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and New York. Lenny committed his life to telling the truth. But the truth he told infuriated those in power, and authorities in the largest, most progressive cities in the country worked relentlessly to put him in jail. To them, Lenny?s words were filthy, depraved. But to his fans?the hip, the discontented, the fringe?his words were not only sharp and hilarious, they were a light in the dark to the repressed society of the early 1960s. Lenny?s battles were fought on stage and in the courtroom?against cops in San Francisco and L.A. who took notes at his performances, against judges in Chicago and against a prosecutor in New York with a zeal to bring the comedian down.

The Triangle Fire, The Protocols Of Peace, And Industrial Democracy: In Progressive Era New York (Labor in Crisis)

Description: Book DescriptionAmerica searched for an answer to `The Labor Question` during the Progressive Era in an effort to avoid the unrest and violence that flared so often in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. In the ladies` garment industry, a unique experiment in industrial democracy brought together labor, management, and the public. As Richard Greenwald explains, it was an attempt to `square free market capitalism with ideals of democracy to provide a fair and just workplace.` Led by Louis Brandeis, this group negotiated the `Protocols of Peace.` But in the midst of this experiment, 146 mostly young, immigrant women died in the Triangle Factory Fire of 1911. As a result of the fire, a second, interrelated experiment, New York`s Factory Investigating Commission (FIC)?led by Robert Wagner and Al Smith?created one of the largest reform successes of the period.
