Niccolo Machiavelli taught that political leaders must be prepared to do evil that good may come of it, and his name has been a byword ever since for duplicity and immorality. Is his sinister reputation deserved? In answering this question Quentin Skinner focuses on three major works, The Prince, the Discourses, and The History of Florence, and distills from them an introduction to Machiavelli of exemplary clarity.

Medieval Science and Technology (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


Medieval Science and Technology (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


$45.79


Medieval scientists, or natural philosophers, as they were then called, were powerfully influenced by the authority of older traditions, including Christianity and scientific ideas dating back to Plato, Aristotle, and Ptolemy. Yet their respect for these traditions was balanced by an equal respect for reason and the spirit of inquiry. Religious faith, far from dampening scientific and technological innovation, actually buttressed their efforts to understand the natural world as it was generally taken for granted that knowledge acquired through reason would harmonize with religious beliefs. While medieval science and technology did not seek to overthrow the prevailing worldviews of the time, their accomplishments did lay the groundwork for the scientific revolution and European global expansion of the early modern age. Medieval science and technology was firmly rooted in Aristotelian explanations of the physical world. The book begins by introducing the basic concepts of the classical tradition, and explains how these ideas were promulgated by the ancient Greeks, were preserved and commented on by the great Muslim scholars of the early middle ages, and finally transmitted into western Europe as that region began to grow and expand around 1100 C.E. Aristotle's natural philosophy is then given an extended treatment, since his descriptions of the natural world provided the intellectual jumping-off point used by every person grappling with the nature of the physical world during that era. Having provided the background needed to understand medieval inquiry on its own terms, specific avenues of inquiry such as Astronomy and Astrology, Optics, Chemistry and alchemy, zoology, geography, and medicine are carefully and clearly described on their own terms. Rounding out this engaging work is a discussion of the many technological innovations of the medieval age, such as mechanical clocks, firearms, and the blast furnace, that profoundly altered the course of European and world history. Biographical sketches provide insight into the lives and accomplishments of 20 men and women, Christian, Muslim, and pagan, whose works profoundly shaped the era's scientific spirit. Eleven annotated key primary documents afford a fascinating glimpse into how the best minds of the time posed their questions and their answers. An annotated timeline, glossary of terms, several illustrations, and an annotated bibliography round out the work.

Medieval Cathedrals (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


Medieval Cathedrals (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


$23.98


When we think of cathedrals, we usually envision the great Gothic Buildings of 12th- and 13th-century Europe. But other than being a large church, a cathedral is neither a specific building type nor specifically medieval. What a makes a large church a cathedral is the presence of a single item of furniture: the chair (in Latin: cathedra) or throne that is the symbol of the ecclesiastical and spiritual authority of a bishop. This book is an introduction to the medieval cathedral, those churches that are usually regarded as among the greatest achievements of medieval architecture. While cathedrals were often the most prominent urban structure in many European cities, their construction was never a civic responsibility, but remained the responsibility of the clergy in charge of the day to day activities and services. Beginning with an overview of the social history of cathedrals, Clark examines such topics as patrons, builders and artists, and planning and construction; and provides an in-depth examination of the French Cathedral at Reims--a seminal building with significant technological advances, important sculptural programs, a surviving bishop's palace, and other structures. The volume concludes with a series of illustrations, a selection of original texts, and a selected bibliography for further study. A full index is also provided.

Medieval Suffolk


Medieval Suffolk


$33.98


Suffolk was one of the most important regions of England in the middle ages. Even by 1200 it was wealthy, densely populated, highly commercialised and urbanised; and it survived the impact of three of the most tumultuous events of the last millennium, the Great Famine [1315-22], the Black Death [1349] and the Peasants' Revolt [1381], to become by 1500 one of the richest and most industrialised regions of England, based on cloth manufacture, fishing and tanning. This first volume in a series which will become the definitive History of Suffolk describes, documents and analyses these events. It combines an accessible and readable summary of the current state of knowledge with fresh insights drawn from extensive investigations of primary sources. Overall, it offers a guide to and re-evaluation of the history of late medieval Suffolk.

Medieval Ireland


Medieval Ireland


$230


Through violent incursions by the Vikings and the spread of Christianity, medieval Ireland maintained a distinctive Gaelic identity. From the sacred site of Tara to the manuscript illuminations in the Book of Kells, Anglo-Irish relations to the Connachta dynasty, Ireland during the middle ages was a rich and vivid culture. Medieval Ireland: An Encyclopedia brings together in one authoritative resource the multiple facets of life in Ireland before and after the Anglo-Norman invasion of 1169, from the sixth to sixteenth century. Multidisciplinary in coverage, this A-Z reference work provides information on historical events, economics, politics, the arts, religion, intellectual history, and many other aspects of the period. Written by the world's leading scholars on the subject, this highly accessible reference work will enable students, researchers, and general readers alike to explore topics such as * The development of the city of Dublin from the early Irish settlement of Ath Cliath(ford of hurdle-work) in the sixth century C.E. to a thriving medieval city * The history of kings and kingships in medieval Ireland including political structure, royal dynasties, and historical roots * Different literary genres including historical tales, satire, aideda, and Irish poetry as well as the outside influence on medieval Irish literature by the Carolingian dynasty, the Anglo-Saxons, the Scottish, and others * The literary, political, and religious people from the Irish middle ages such as Marianus Scottus, Strongbow, Brian Boru, St. Brigit, and Richard FitzRalph * The culture and society of the era including music, games, craftwork, role of women, fraternities, andbardic schools With over 345 essays ranging from 250 to 2,500 words, Medieval Ireland paints a lively and colorful portrait of the time.

The Black Death (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


The Black Death (Greenwood Guides to Historic Events of the Medieval World)


$31.48


Probably the greatest natural disaster to ever curse humanity, the Black Death's lethality is legendary, killing between a quarter to over half of any given stricken area's population. Though historians suspect a first wave of bubonic plague struck the Mediterranean area between 571 - 760 C.E., there is no doubt that the plague was carried west by the Mongol Golden Horde in the late 1340s as they raided as far west as Constantinople, where it is believed that Genoese traders became infected, and then carried, the disease into European and northern African ports after their escape. Within about two years practically the entire European continent and much of North Africa had been burned over by this disaster of apocalyptic proportions. Eight thematic chapters guide the reader through the medical perspective of the plague-- medieval and modern--and to the plague's impact on society, cities, individuals, and art of the time. Medieval doctors named miasmatic vapors--bad air --as a primary cause of infection, along with an improper balance of the four Humors--blood, phlegm, black bile and yellow bile, often caused by ominous astrological alignments; or so they believed. Scapegoats, often Jews, were persecuted and murdered as frightened people desperately sought somebody to blame for the spread of the plague. Others assumed the plague was God's punishment of wicked humanity, and roamed the countryside in groups that would flagellate themselves publicly as an act of atonement. An annotated timeline guides the reader to the key events and dates of this recurring disaster. Nine illustrations show how artists represented the plague's impact on the self and society. Twelve primary documents, half of them never before translated into English, come from eyewitnesses ranging from Constantinople, Damascus, Prague, Italy, France, Germany, and England. A glossary is provided that enables readers to quickly look up unfamiliar medical and historical terms and concepts such as Bacillus, Verjuice, and Peasants' Revolt of 1381. An annotated bibliography follows, divided by topic. The work is fully indexed.

Medieval Art


Medieval Art


$18.44


This refreshing new look at Medieval art conveys a very real sense of the impact of art on everyday life in Europe from 1000 to 1500. It examines the importance of art in the expression and spread of knowledge and ideas, including notions of the heroism and justice of war, and the dominant view of Christianity. Taking its starting point from issues of contemporary relevance, such as the environment, the identity of the artist, and the position of women, the book also highlights the attitudes and events specific to the sophisticated visual culture of the Middle Ages, and goes on to link this period to the Renaissance. The fascinating question of whether commercial and social activities between countries encouraged similar artistic taste and patronage, or contributed to the defining of cultural difference in Europe, is fully explored.

Medieval Drama


Medieval Drama


$71.95


This comprehensive anthology brings together a diverse collection of dramatic writing from the late fourteenth century to the onset of the Renaissance. The volume presents for the first time the key plays of the period in their entirety, alongside more unusual selections, covering religious narrative, religion and conscience, and politics and morality. The first section focuses on Biblical plays, including coherent sequences of the narrative Cycle plays from York and N-Town and supporting pageants from Chester and Wakefield. This approach allows a clear narrative line to develop, and permits the comparison of the treatment of key stories between the Cycles. The selected material demonstrates how the drama of the towns and cities of East Anglia and the North of England mediated religious culture to a heterodox urban audience, and explored biblical events in an intensely contemporary setting. In the second and third sections, the attention turns to secular drama, and the Moral Plays and Interludes. The featured texts illustrate the range of themes and issues covered, from the salvation of the individual human soul to the renovation of the political nation, and the variety of settings and audiences for which the plays were designed. The flexibility of the Interlude form is explored, as are the ways in which it was utilised by playwrights and their patrons to address issues of direct political and social concern to them and their audiences. Medieval Drama: An Anthology is an indispensable guide to the breadth and depth of dramatic activity in medieval Britain.

Medieval Warfare


Medieval Warfare


$52.48


From the eighth century through the Middle Ages feudalism determined the nature of European warfare. Medieval Warfare begins in the time of Charlemagne, who maintained a military system of freemen and of vassals bound to him in service for lands granted in fief. These pages are crowded with recreations of famous events like the Battle of Hastings and movements like the Crusades; with the brightest flowers of knighthood, and with the mercenary grandeur of Byzantium. Hans Delbrück shows how feudal military organization varied in different countries and why the knightly forces could not hold up against the barbarous Normans. He studies military developments in the kingdoms that rose with the collapse of the Carolingian Empire, as well as the trend toward mercenary armies. When the Swiss peasants, forming the first true infantry, defeated the Burgundian knights in the fourteenth century, the era of modern warfare had begun.

The Medieval World

For every century, a signature city is spotlighted to represent that era''s developments. Time lines connect the many dramatic events that took place in these dark and exciting times, which continue to shape our world today.

Astrology in Medieval Manuscripts


Astrology in Medieval Manuscripts


$18.98


In the Middle Ages the art of predicting earthly events and human characteristics from the movements of the stars and planets was a scientific branch of learning with a philosophical basis. Its influence extended to natural philosophy and cosmology, medicine, agriculture, weather-forecasting and alchemy. Yet astrology was never an entirely acceptable practice, attracting both religious and scientific objections. These ambivalent medieval attitudes are just one aspect of this wide-ranging and clearly-written account of astrological ideas and practices in medieval society, comprehensively illustrated from a wide range of manuscripts.

Here is the fascinating story of the rise and fall of the Arrow, the legendary interceptor jet aircraft, developed by A.V. Roe Canada in the fifties.The Arrow was an unprecedented success story for Canada's fledgling aviation industry. It was conceived by its builders as the culmination of an impressive string of world firsts. Faster than any previous aircraft, it represented the leading edge of technology and an achievement of the highest calibre. Then came the dramatic decision whose rationale was not made public at the time and which remains hard to fathom even today. The Diefenbaker government cancelled the Arrow, and everything was destroyed, including the planes themselves. Nothing was to remain.Working from officiaI documents, archives, interviews and a wide range of unofficial sources, James Dow presents the authoritative story of A.V. Roe Canada and its projects. He describes how the Arrow was developed and why it was killed. Dow takes us behind the scenes to the real dynamics and rivalries which were a part of the Arrow from the beginning and which explain its fate. This edition of the definitive book on the subject has been updated with a new introduction.

On February 20, 1959, Prime Minister John Diefenbaker announced to the House of Commons the cancellation of the CF-105 Arrow. Its development costs to that time were $340 million. The Arrow was to be the world's unsurpassed interceptor aircraft. Yet within two months of the Prime Minister's announcement, six completed aircraft were dismantled and all papers and documents associated with the project were destroyed. Here is the history and development of the Arrow - the plane that would make Canada the leader in supersonic flight technology. The Arrow was designed to fly at twice the speed of sound and carry the most advanced missile weapons system. Here are the stories of the men and women who were in the vanguard of the new technology - who had come from England, Poland, and the United States to make aviation history.

Sika Deer Hunting In Maryland - Visiting Maryland on Your Next Road Trip

Sika Deer Hunting In Maryland

Is a Maryland stopover on your travel itinerary? Now's the time to reserve a few days or weeks for a stay in the "Old Line State." Imagine mountain trails graced with shades of autumn and leisurely strolls past misty waterfalls. How about treating yourself to a meal of legendary blue crabs, fresh-caught from the Chesapeake Bay. Catch a glimpse of wild, ponies ambling along sandy shores. Maryland offers its fortunate visitors a multitude of natural, unforgettable vacation experiences. Plus, Maryland offers fantastic Maryland campgrounds and Maryland RV camping resorts which welcome travelers, many in both summer and winter months.

Savvy RV travelers will find Savage River State Forest, near the town of Grantsville in Maryland's scenic western portion. The state's biggest forest encompasses almost 53,000 acres on the mountainous Allegheny Plateau, comprised of a combination of woods, streams and fields, with almost half the acreage preserved as wildlands. Savage River's visitors share hardwood forests of hickory, hemlock, black cherry and poplar with resident deer, black bears and bobcats. Sika Deer Hunting In Maryland

Rhododendrons and pink azaleas lend splashes of color to the landscape. Water-based recreation is provided by the Savage River Reservoir where anglers snag bass, walleye and elusive brook trout. Paddlers enjoy whitewater stretches just as surely as hikers, backpackers, mountain bikers and off-road vehicle enthusiasts appreciate Savage River's well-developed system of multi-use trails. outdoor activities in the forest span all four seasons, with winter snowfalls prompting an influx of cross-country skiers and snowmobile riders.

Another western Maryland gem is Deep Creek Lake State Park in Swanton. Located on the shores of the state's largest lake, this park is set on the Allegheny Highlands Plateau at the southern edge of Meadow Mountain. Once inhabited by nomadic tribesmen and Native American hunters, the surrounding area now shelters resident species such as wild turkeys, skunks and opossums. Trails guide hikers through oak and hickory forests and up to the peak of Meadow Mountain. Swimming, fishing, tubing, sailing, skiing and hunting are favorite park pastimes. While winter welcomes ice fishermen and snowmobilers, summer guests can attend programs designed to promote equestrian skills, nature crafts, and fly-fishing. There are even horse-drawn wagon rides and bonfire parties to round out Deep Creek's outdoorsy entertainment options. Sika Deer Hunting In Maryland

A Brief Look At Medieval weapons

What is the first thing that pops into your mind when you hear the words medieval ages? Perhaps you think about the magnificent castles portrayed in books or movies, or perhaps you think about knights in shiny armor. Whatever it may be that attracts you to this specific time in history, one thing is certain. The medieval ages are often misunderstood and categorized as a period of time which had little to no change in technology, daily life, or any other kind of important development. However, the medieval ages were a period of time of great development in all this areas, especially in weapons. Below you will find some of the weapons used in this fascinating period of time.

On of the best known things about the medieval ages are its weapons which where, most often than not, very efficiently. The weapons used in the medieval ages where constantly improved to improve their efficiency during war time. The medieval era was a time where knights, warriors and barbarians displayed their various weapons, each unique, and sometimes complex, in their own way.

• Daggers and knives- This weapons where commonly used during the medieval ages. Some of the daggers and knives used during this period of time where the anelace, baselard, cinquedea, katara, machete, mercy giver poniard, rondel, and stiletto.

swords-. Although you may think daggers, knives, and swords are all the same, they are not. In contrast to daggers and knives, swords are bigger and deadlier. Swords come in different varieties, such as single or double-bladed edges, and some swords can have straight or curved edges. Some of the swords used during this period of time where the arming sword, broadsword, claymore, falchion, flamberge, greatsword, katana, longsword, Miao dao, saber, scimitar, spatha, shortsword, and zweihander.

• Blunt weapons- Blunt weapons are consider somewhat simple and primarily and are designed to inflict blunt trauma on their target. For this reason, blunt weapons are club-like and they rely on the strength of the user. Some of the blunt weapons used during the medieval ages where clubs, flail, mace, flanged mace, maul, morning star, quarterstaff, war harmer, bec de corbin, horseman's pick and bludgeon.

• Ranged Weapons- Ranged weapons where used to inflict damage to an opposite team via long distance. Some of the ranged weapons used in the medieval ages where javelins, slings, dart, bows and arrows, catapults, ballistas, and trebuchets.

• Warships- Most often than not, individuals needed to attack by sea rather than by land. Hence, they used warships such as caravel, carrack, cog, fire ship, hellburners, galleon, gallery, junk, longship, lou chuan, and qiao chuan.

Although individuals in the medieval ages used weapons to insure their victory in times of conflict and war, they also used animals in war to increase their winning possibilities. Some of this animals included camels, dogs, horses, destrier, courser, and even elephants.

The medieval era was a time of great warfare, as a result their weapon history is long and, more often than not, bloody. However, the medieval era influenced and changed the way weapons where viewed and created for ever.

The Arrow of Love: Optics, Gender, and Subjectivity in Medieval Love Poetry


The Arrow of Love: Optics, Gender, and Subjectivity in Medieval Love Poetry


$33.9


The Arrow of Love examines visual encounters in medieval lyrics, exploring the ways in which poets employed contemporary optical theory both to revitalize classical topoi, such as Cupid's arrow, and to address issues of subjectivity and gender. In the unconfessed or unrequited love that is so frequently the focus of medieval lyrics, an exchange of glances is often the primary contact between the lover and the beloved. As medieval poets sought new ways to describe visual interactions, many turned to the rapidly growing field of optical theory, which offered not only an array of images and metaphors but also models for the perceiving subject that could be adapted to poetic use. In particular, optical imagery and paradigms afforded poets a new approach to the roles of the languishing male lover and his powerful beloved. Poets considered include Chretien de Troyes, Giacomo da Lentini, Guido Cavalcanti, and Dante. Medieval transformations of imagery involving the eyes persisted in literature for centuries; the epilogue considers the fate Of these transformations in Renaissance poetry.

The medieval period was a time of feudalism and fanaticism, to causes religious or secular, fought by men who threw their lives into the maelstrom of bloody hand-to-hand combat, enduring horrendous wounds and deprivations of all kinds. Generals, be they high born kings or ambitious mercenaries, were revered and blindly followed because they were good fighters or simply spoke well. Men fought for God, wealth and honor, not necessarily in that order. A man had to fulfill his feudal obligations or he was sure he would go to hell. These rules are intended to give an intense, exciting and mentally challenging game to those who enjoy a test of wills. Players must make many tactical decisions each turn and these will have more of an effect on the outcome of the game than the luck of the dice. Each turn tactical decisions will be made by the player. Some are simple; to charge or to defend. Others are not; whether to fire an intensive arrow barrage and run low of missiles, or to hold back and trust your accuracy will be enough to blunt the enemy charge. Which units you choose to move each turn may give away your strategy, or perhaps deceive your opponent into committing his reserves. Good tactics will win the game for you. You will find that it is important to weaken an enemy before simply charging in with your heaviest troops. Rarely will a reckless charge be rewarded with success. Above all, you should find each game enjoyable and stimulating. Hopefully, you will gain some knowledge of the difficulties of command in the Medieval period.
