A large polychrome softwood Madonna - Baroque - Tirol - ca.

Beautiful large Madonna, standing on the serpent of depravity, a sign of Maria’s immaculate conception, without original sins. The statue is painted in multi-colours. She is definitely not in perfect condition, but she has a beautiful worn patina and a warm serene look, and some imperfections to the hands, see photos, a sign of more than 200 years of intensive religious use. Maria has glass eyes, she seems to look at you, this is typical of statues from Tirol and Northern Italy from the Baroque period.Origin: this Maria statue stood high on a nunnery altar in the Brussels area, quieted and almost forgotten in recent years; the monastery has long since closed. However, it has the characteristics of the Habsburg Baroque. Exact provenance unknown.Condition: the statue is in worn condition and bears signs of wear due to age and religious use, see photos. It has some early and later repairs.It is painted in several colours, but that has faded due to time and use, this gives this statue a beautiful melancholic appearance.Size: height approx 63 cm.Insured shipment.

The Medieval Mind: Hispanic Studies in Honour of Alan

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: MacPherson, Ian / Penny, Ralph, PUBLISHER: Tamesis Books, Distinguished scholars from both sides of the Atlantic make a major contribution to medieval literary studies in contributions ranging from early epic to Fernando de Rojas. Studies on cuaderna via' verse and the poets of the cancionero' figure prominently, as do the Libro de buen amor' and Celestina'; these are complemented by individual essays on texts outside the mainstream, on the language and versification of the period, on the prose writers of the fifteenth century, and on literary activity in Catalonia, Galicia and Portugal. The collection demonstrates the range of interest and approach characteristic of recent Hispanic scholarship, and provides new insights into the medieval mind at work in the Iberian peninsula. IAN MACPHERSON is former Professor of Spanish, University of Durham; RALPH PENNY is Professor of Romance Philology, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London.

Medieval Warfare: History of the Art of War, Volume III

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Delbruck, Hans / Delbr'uck / Renfroe, Walter J., PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, 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 Delbruck 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.
