Download or read book Imagined Battles written by Peter Paret and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For thousands of years, art has interpreted the experience of war_its methods, human costs, and moral ambiguities_and has offered historians a wealth of testimony that is only beginning to be systematically explored. In this wide-ranging study, Peter Paret discusses forty-seven paintings and prints as complex documents of war in Europe since the Renaissance and as examples of the artist's use of war as a metaphor for the human condition. The images include works by such major artists as Uccello, Géricault, and Dix as well as academic history paintings and popular prints. By setting each in its historical environment and analyzing it from the perspective of the wars of its time, illuminates the place of war in Western consciousness and expands our understanding of works that are too often approached with little concern for the reality they depict or symbolically transform. Perhaps the most significant of the themes he traces over five centuries is the gradual change from the prince or general to the common soldier and civilian victim as central figures in the interpretation of war in art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reflections on the Art of War "Peace," says Segur, "is the dream of the wise; war is the history of man." "But such an art is war! So fearful is the consequence of error, so terrible the responsibility of a general. Strongly and wisely did Napoleon speak when he told Joseph he must give himself up entirely to the business, labouring day and night, thinking of nothing else." - Napier. "When I first applied myself to the writing of these Lives," says Plutarch, "it was for the sake of others; but I pursue that study for my own sake, availing myself of history as of a mirror, from which I learn to adjust and regulate my own conduct. For it is like living and conversing with these illustrious men, when I invite as it were, and receive them, one after another, under my roof; when I consider how great and wonderful they were, and select from their actions the most memorable and glorious." "Ye Gods! what greater pleasure? what happier road to virtue?" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Art of War Landmark Edition

Download or read book The Art of War Landmark Edition written by Sun Tzu and published by Gildan Media LLC aka G&D Media. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the True Meaning of Victory The Art of War is one of the most widely read classics of history—and one of the most practical works of philosophy ever written. Now, for the first time, this “landmark edition” presents the unparalleled 1910 translation by British sinologist Lionel Giles (1875-1958) along with Giles’ equally potent 1905 translation of the Tao Te Ching, the work upon which The Art of War stands, for a complete and transformative experience of martial wisdom. PEN Award-winning historian Mitch Horowitz introduces and annotates this volume, highlighting the complementary insights of The Art of War and the Tao Te Ching. Mitch’s footnotes clarify the meaning and context of The Art of War, as his introduction—a compelling study in itself—explores the relevance, history, and authorship of these ageless classics. This volume also features an integrated index of The Art of War and the Tao Te Ching, helping the reader locate commonalities between them. “My hope is that your reading The Art of War alongside Giles’ translation of the Tao Te Ching,” Mitch writes in the introduction, “will provide you—at times joltingly—with a powerful new estimate and measure of personal behavior...The Art of War is a book of ethical power—not force, which dies with its user, but power which is generative and renewable.” "To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting."—Sun Tzu, The Art of War

  • ISBN : 9781547070831
  • Pages : 68 pages

Download or read book Reflections of War written by Eddie Morales and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-30 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A soldier lives in fear for their life, day after day, in a combat zone - how can they really describe to someone what that feels like?It is hard to capture in a narrative. Through the medium of poetry, Eddie Morales intuitively expresses the essence of those battles, both in combat, and the secondary battle once the veteran returns home.Reflections of War, Part 1, is a series of compassionate poems that express the feelings and sensations of the combat veteran.This book is a powerful journey into a battlefield of the heart and soul, as the poetry lives out the searing pain and hardship of the soldier in war.Then - the soldier comes home from war, and the pain and strife should be over. But the war lives on in their mind, evocatively expressed in poetry by the author.After returning home, there is a second battle to fight - the scars on the psyche that must be dealt with - or they can have dangerous consequences. Eddie Morales is not a combat veteran. He has had numerous interviews with veterans, during which he has listened with intent, to hear the world of the warrior. He put that on paper so forcefully that combat veterans nod and say, "he gets it."The author is a martial arts instructor and former law enforcement officer and has honed his skills of expression carefully, to share the stories in his poems.
