This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Painted Glass in England, 1170-1500 Ad. 709. St. Wilfrid glazes York Minster, which he also whitewashes and decorates. Anyone who has devoted attention to the ancient enamelled works of the Rhenish school must have been struck by the marked Simi larity of design and treatment which they present to the earlier examples of painted glass, angularity of figure and stiffness of drapery being common to both. A comparison of primitive painted glass with the early enamels, must, I think, make it apparent, how close is the resemblance between the two, the enamel of the one being transmuted into glass, whilst the brass intersections have be come changed into leads. The art of enamelling seems to have been introduced into Western Europe, ad. 972, at the time of the marriage of the Emperor, Otho II, with the Princess Theophania, who is recorded to have brought workers in enamel from Byzantium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local history in Britain can trace its origins back to the sixteenth century and before, but it was given inspiration and a new sense of direction in the 1950s and 60s by the work of W.G. Hoskins. This book marks the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of his Local history in England which was designed to help people researching the history of their own villages and towns. It is the result of a collaboration between academic historians in the Centre for English Local History at the University of Leicester, which Hoskins founded, and the British Association for Local History, an organisation that brings together the thousands of people who are not professional academics but who practise local history. Taking the work of Hoskins as a starting point, the contributors show how local history is being researched and written today. Fifteen historians write about a variety of local history subjects which are significant in their own right but which also point to current trends in the subject. They show how local historians use their sources systematically, from the non-verbal evidence of buildings to various types of electronic resources. All periods between the middle ages and the early twenty-first century are explored, as are many different parts of the country from Skye to the Kent coast. There are examples of local historians working on ethnic minorities, gender and the working class. Those who study localities use a variety of approaches, including those of social, economic, religious, legal, intellectual and cultural history, all of which are employed here. They are aware of the roots of their subject and examine the history of local history itself. Together, the editors and authors raise the various dilemmas which stimulate debates among local historians about the nature of the subject, its present health and the directions it will take in the next half century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major new study re-examines one of the most controversial issues of early modern history: the impact of the English Reformation upon the English people. It represents an advance from the conventional reign-by-reign narrative to a more incisively thematic approach. Drawing on the author's own research in church art as well as in written records such as wills and parish accounts, and evaluating the findings of other recent historians, it forcefully challenges several of the currently fashionable interpretations of this crucial era.
