Download or read book Lusitano written by Keron Psillas Oliveira and published by Veritas Editions. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A visual story of the Lusitano horse adeptly told through the lens of Keron Psillas Oliveira. Keron tells her story of meeting, photographing, and ultimately living in the land of her beloved Lusitano horse. Includes four essays - one at each chapter beginning, and an index of images providing the names of all the horses, riders if depicted, and the date and location the photographs were made. Lady Sylvia Loch, author of The Royal Horse of Europe and recipient of The Order of Merit from Portugal, describes Keron's work in this way: Keron's photographs depict a horse that is unique in terms of how he touches us. In them we see a true artist at work, delivered in the form of photographs that not only captures the soul of the Lusitano horse, but also that of the photographer.An excerpt from the Introduction by Keron Psillas Oliveira: Photographically I felt that I began to show the Lusitano in their environment and in a way that transcends time, discipline, or breeding. In other words, despite my tremendous respect for the breeding programs of Senhors Braga, Freire, Veiga, Torres, and so many others, I want my photographs to represent the eternal qualities that emanate from the horses. For these horses are noble and courageous. They are dignified, kind, trusting and engaging. And yet, there is something more, an ineffable quality found in the Lusitano that I have not found in other breeds. I believe that this horse is a direct channel to what we might call the spark of the Divine. Horses have been our partners for millennia. For centuries they have worked for us, carried us, and more recently, for those who seek a personal connection to them, they have uplifted us. They are our mirror. They show us our best and worst qualities in equal measure, without judgement. And they are always waiting for us to join them in a higher consciousness, the consciousness of now that is also eternal.

Download or read book The Birth of Integralismo Lusitano written by Jamie Sewart Jones and published by CPHRC Editorial Services. This book was released on 2024-10-04 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integralismo Lusitano was a radical pro-monarchist right-wing group of Portuguese intellectuals that was modelled on the example of Charles Maurras' Action Française. Formed by young Portuguese men living in France, to where they had been exiled following the overthrow of the Portuguese Consitutional Monarchy and the instauration of the Portuguese Republic in October 1910, Integralism sought to recreate a mythical medieval-type monarchy in Portugal, promoting a corporatist style of government that would allow the people to concentrate on themselves and their communities. This essay describes the formation of the group, the ideology of its leading proponents, the alliances it formed as it began to exert an influence over the politics of the era

Download or read book The Cemeteries of New Orleans written by Peter B. Dedek and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Cemeteries of New Orleans, Peter B. Dedek reveals the origins and evolution of the Crescent City’s world-famous necropolises, exploring both their distinctive architecture and their cultural impact. Spanning centuries, this fascinating body of research takes readers from muddy fields of crude burial markers to extravagantly designed cities of the dead, illuminating a vital and vulnerable piece of New Orleans’s identity. Where many histories of New Orleans cemeteries have revolved around the famous people buried within them, Dedek focuses on the marble cutters, burial society members, journalists, and tourists who shaped these graveyards into internationally recognizable emblems of the city. In addition to these cultural actors, Dedek’s exploration of cemetery architecture reveals the impact of ancient and medieval grave traditions and styles, the city’s geography, and the arrival of trained European tomb designers, such as the French architect J. N. B. de Pouilly in 1833 and Italian artist and architect Pietro Gualdi in 1851. As Dedek shows, the nineteenth century was a particularly critical era in the city’s cemetery design. Notably, the cemeteries embodied traditional French and Spanish precedents, until the first garden cemetery—the Metairie Cemetery—was built on the site of an old racetrack in 1872. Like the older walled cemeteries, this iconic venue served as a lavish expression of fraternal and ethnic unity, a backdrop to exuberant social celebrations, and a destination for sightseeing excursions. During this time, cultural and religious practices, such as the celebration of All Saints’ Day and the practice of Voodoo rituals, flourished within the spatial bounds of these resting places. Over the course of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, however, episodes of neglect and destruction gave rise to groups that aimed to preserve the historic cemeteries of New Orleans—an endeavor, which, according to Dedek, is still wanting for resources and political will. Containing ample primary source material, abundant illustrations, appendices on both tomb styles and the history of each of the city’s eighteenth- and nineteenth-century cemeteries, The Cemeteries of New Orleans offers a comprehensive and intriguing resource on these fascinating historic sites.
