Описание: "Quite simply the most fascinating record of a ‘[fashion] victim’ one could hope for." The Spectator
This captivating study reproduces arguably the most extraordinary primary source documents in fashion history. Providing a revealing window onto the Renaissance, it chronicles how style-conscious accountant Matthaus Schwarz and his son Veit Konrad experienced life through clothes, and climbed the social ladder through fastidious management of self-image. These bourgeois dandies’ agenda resonates as powerfully today as it did in the 16th century: one has to dress to impress, and dress to impress they did.
The Schwarzes recorded their sartorial triumphs as well as failures in life in a series of portraits by illuminists over 60 years, which have been comprehensively reproduced in full color for the first time. These exquisite illustrations are accompanied by the Schwarzes’ fashion-focussed yet at times deeply personal captions, which render the pair the world’s first fashion bloggers and pioneers of everyday portraiture.
The First Book of Fashion demonstrates how dress – seemingly both ephemeral and trivial – is a potent tool in the right hands. Beyond this, it colorfully recaptures the experience of Renaissance life and reveals the importance of clothing to the aesthetics and everyday culture of the period.
Historians Ulinka Rublack’s and Maria Hayward’s insightful commentaries create an unparalleled portrait of 16th-century dress that is both strikingly modern and thorough in its description of a true Renaissance fashionista’s wardrobe. This first English translation also includes a bespoke pattern by TONY award-winning costume designer and dress historian Jenny Tiramani, from which readers can recreate one of Schwarz’s most elaborate and politically significant outfits.

Описание: The practice of feuding amongst noblemen and princes represented a substantial threat to law and order, yet it was widely accepted in early modern Germany. Examining feud violence in its social context, this study demonstrates that, paradoxically, nobles feuded mostly not against strangers but with neighbours, relatives and feudal lords.
Описание: Exploring `honour politics` in the early modern period, Brendan Kane reveals that honour played a powerful role in determining the character of Anglo-Irish society, politics and cultural contact, and brings a cultural perspective to our understanding of English imperialism in Ireland and of the Irish responses to it.

Описание:
A unique collection of more than 50 hybrid prose/poetry works created in response to fine artworks. Also includes essays on theory, an interview with the author, and a publisher's brief intro. These prosimetra take full advantage of the ekphrasis form's opportunities: didactic exposition, personal anecdote, poetic musing, and, of course, great art.
Tarlton's first writing-love was poetry, which he had little time for during his decades of scholarly writing as a university professor of political theory. After retiring in 2006, he returned to creating poems and also began writing fiction. He and the abstract painter Ann Knickerbocker have been married thirty years, so it's no surprise that Tarlton frequently ruminates on the nature of art and the creative process, and on the nature of reality and illusion. And, in TOUCHING FIRE, he gives us his discoveries in erudite and clever poems that range from playful to deeply philosophical, often in the same piece. They reveal more with repeated readings, each becoming like a treasured pocket guide to the artwork.
