Richard II
ISBN: 9780300078756 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Richard II is one of the most enigmatic of English kings. Shakespeare depicted him as a tragic figure, an irresponsible, cruel monarch who nevertheless rose in stature as the substance of power slipped from him. By later writers he has been variously portrayed as a half-crazed autocrat or a conventional ruler whose principal errors were the mismanagement of his nobility and disregard for the political conventions of his age. This book--the first full-length biography of Richard in more than fifty years--offers a radical reinterpretation of the king.

For Honour and Fame : Chivalry in England, 1066-1500
ISBN: 9781845951894 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Wide-ranging, vivid and authoritative, this is the first book to treat chivalry as part of the wider history of medieval England.
The world of medieval chivalry is at once glamorous and violent, alluring yet alien. Our popular views of the period are largely inherited from the nineteenth-century romantics, for whom chivalry evoked images of knights in shining armour, competing for the attention of fair ladies -- with pennons and streamers fluttering from castle battlements. But what is the reality? Were the rituals and romance of chivalry designed to provide an escape from the brutal...
