Book
large-format softcover, 8" x 11" 96 pages Familiar as King Arthur's medieval image may be, it is not the whole story. His most impressive quality is his power to continue for century after century, fading out and always returning in different guises - as a patriotic leader in Post-Roman Britain, as a larger-than-life hero of Welsh saga, as a king of courtly romance, as a Victorian paragon, as a recurring character in modern fiction, films and children's books. This book presents Arthur in 129 illustrations (15 in colour) from eleventh century to today (tapestry, art, film, caricature, etc). Previous owner's name inside front cover. Book in VERY GOOD condition.

hardcover, 6¼" x 8½", with dust jacket 288 pages Fifty-one colour plates including 'St Jerome in his Study' (Antonello da Messina) as frontispiece, and 200 b&w plates. The authors follow the growth of the Renaissance to the Florence of 1420 and the artistic ferment there, to the fascinating regional schools of Seina, Umbria, Mantua and Rome - the magnet for every creative ambition through the influence of the patron-Popes. Architecture, sculpture, painting, book illustration and all the arts of design underwent the same transformation. This is the first complete and straightforward survey of the arts in Europe during this period.

Hardcover, 15cms x 22cms (5¾" x 8¾"), with dust jacket 272 pages This unsophisticated young lady, with no interest in formal education, was to build a name for herself as a landscape architect, and later to be drawn into work for children by the injustices she saw them enduring. She was happily married to Clifford Allen, pacifist, socialist and internationalist, who helped her clarify and present her ideas. Her campaign led to the passing of the Children Act of 1948 in the U.K. Lady Allen also worked tirelessly for handicapped children. Book includes 40 b&w photographs. Ours is an ex-library copy with usual library markings. GOOD book in GOOD unclipped dust jacket.

softcover, 5¾" x 8¼" 160 pages The interlaced beasts, birds and serpents of Celtic art were the product of a fusion of European traditions, including those of the Anglo-Saxons and those of the early Celts themselves. Tracing the development of zoomorphic decoration, Aidan Meehan shows how we can re-learn this traditional art language, whose motifs range from griffins to greyhounds. Dynamic and ingenious animal patterns from all over northern Europe, with their construction explained in detail, are included in over 400 illustrations here. Book in VERY GOOD condition.

hardcover, 5¾" x 8¾", with dust jacket 160 pages John Darrah's detailed analysis of Arthur's entourage shows that they embody recollections of various aspects of primitive religion - the cult of sacred waters, the cult of the severed head, the ritual relevance of copulation, castration and cannibalism. Above all, they recall the traditions of the priestly kings, such as those who reigned only until they were killed and replaced by a stronger man, and others who gave effect to the ancient supposition that a people's prosperity depended on the kings vigour, and particularly on his reproductive capacity.

hardcover, 6¼" x 8½", with dust jacket 214 pages For a brief span of about thirty years during the first half of the sixteenth century, the High Renaissance flourished in Italy. The point where the searching individual experiments of the fifteenth century culminate in the maturity and balance of the High Renaissance is marked for Linda Murray by Leonardo's 'Last Supper'. The period covered by this book ends in the mid-1530s, in the watershed between the High Renaissance and the art of the second half of the sixteenth century (Mannerism, etc). Book has 34 colour plates, 108 b&w plates and authoritative text. Ours is a ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, and barcode. GOOD book in GOOD price-clipped dust jacket.

large softcover, 6½" x 9¾" 256 pages In this radical and highly original examination of design and its place in society, Adrian Forty challenges premises that have usually passed unquestioned. He argues that societies use design to express their values. Design is shaped by economic and social conditions; it can be manipulated to overcome resistance to innovations that seem threatening. Here he looks at the appearance of man-made goods in the two hundred years since the introduction of mechanized production. 272 illustration - from penknives to railway carriages.

hardcover, 6" x 8½", with dust jacket 286 pages Of all the factors which went into the making of modern Europe, none is more important than the evolution of its trade, agiculture and industry. Economic change cannot be divorced from social, technical and commercial developments, and as the author here shows, the process by which 'Europe' slowly took shape was vitally affected by their interrelationships. It all began during the period we call the 'Middle Ages', as Professor Bautier demonstrates - providing a significant revision of many accepted opinions.

Although the aborigines who peopled this corner of South America never reached the level of civilization attained by the Aztec, Mayans or Incas, they created a number of warlike local chiefdoms. The importance of their prehistoric cultural developments acquires significance when viewed in the wider context of New World prehistory. This book places Colombian prehistory within a chronological framework of successive developments. 65 photos, 66 line drawings, 2 maps and 2 tables.

Compared with the land, the sea is a very stable environment, but minor variations in its physical character can upset plankton growth, index of the ocean's productivity. Animals and plants of the shore have already suffered from pollution by oil, sewage and industrial effluents; is the deep-sea dumping of wastes another example of irreversible pollution? Some fish are now seriously over-exploited, and the plight of the whales is well known; can other species be rationally exploited for a sustainable yield?
