Despite lackluster leadership, the movement was briefly a credible security threat which impacted the history of nations on both sides of the Atlantic....

Seeing Faith, Printing Pictures: Religious Identity During the English Reformation
ISBN: 9789004236011 / Angielski / Twarda / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Scholarship on religious printed images during the English Reformation (1535-1603) has generally focused on a few illustrated works and has portrayed this period in England as a predominantly non-visual religious culture. The combination of iconoclasm and Calvinist doctrine have led to a misunderstanding as to the unique ways that English Protestants used religious printed images. Building on recent work in the history of the book and print studies, this book analyzes the widespread body of religious illustration, such as images of God the Father and Christ, in Reformation England, assessing...

Wexford Castles: Environment, Settlement and Society
ISBN: 9781859184936 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Billy Colfer's Wexford Castles expands his look at the Irish landscape by taking a thematic approach, while still staying loyal to the central landscape focus. Rather than adapting a narrowly architectural approach, he situates these buildings in a superbly reconstructed historical, social, and cultural milieu. County Wexford has three strikingly different regions -- the Anglo-Norman south, the hybridized middle and the Gaelic north -- which render it a remarkable version in parvo of the wider island. Colfer's wide-angle lens takes in so much more than the castles themselves, as...

ISBN: 9780199680450 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the 1960s, the physical landscape of Dublin changed more than at any time since the eighteenth century. In this period, the government began to invest in town planning, new opportunities arose for the country's architects, and the old buildings of the core began to be replaced by modern structures. The early manifestations of this process were well received, understood as the first visible signs of prosperity and broader social and economic modernization. However, this attitude was short lived. By the end of the 1960s, popular support for urban change had evaporated; a disparate...
