100 Great Danes

, teNeues Media Verlag, 2015. eb, 3832732802, Hardcover. Zustand: 2. Die weibliche Form ist ein zentrales Thema der Kunst, seit es den künstlerischen Ausdruck gibt. Dieses Buch ist eine würdige Ergänzung zu dem veritablen Kanon, der die weibliche Anmut und Stärke feiert. Als Werk von sieben Jahren verneigt sich dieser Fotoband vor den Frauen Dänemarks - vor ihrer weiblichen Schönheit und persönlichen Integrität. Die Porträtierten kommen aus unterschiedlichsten Bereichen - sie sind Models, Sängerinnen, Schauspielerinnen, Künstlerinnen und Studentinnen. Ruhig und zeitlos lässt jedes Porträt die individuelle Persönlichkeit durchscheinen. Dem Leser fällt nicht nur sofort auf, wie stolz diese Frauen auf ihren Körper und ihre Ausstrahlung sind, sondern auch, welche unbeugsame Kraft und Zielstrebigkeit von ihnen ausgeht.

The History of Great Britaine Under the Conquests of Ye Romans, Saxons, Danes and Normans Their Original Manners Warres, Coines & Seales with Ye Sucessions, Lives, Acts & Issues of the English Monarchs from Iulius Caesar to Our Most Gracious Soveraigne King James

London, William Hall and John Beale, 1614. Leather. A very scarce edition of this highly historically significant work of British history, written by an extremely influential historian and cartographer and offering a thorough exegesis of early British history from Julius Caesar to King James. A reissue of the 1611 first edition, with imprint date altered, as called for. ESTC Citation No. S122020. Folio. The work is very scarce, with the 1614 reissue being a particularly scarce edition. Collated, lacking errata leaf to the rear of the work and front and rear blank. Leaf 802 is misnumbered as leaf 801 as called for. Pagination is continuous from 'The Theatre of The Empire of Great Britaine' but the work is considered complete as a single volume. Contains the exceptionally scarce three leaves between [pi] 1 and Mm2 containing the author's preface. This is not present in the ESTC copy. Engraved title page has been trimmed and mounted with slight loss to fore edge. With an engraved title page and vignette engravings throughout by Christoph Schweitzer. John Speed is renowned for his work as both a leading English cartographer and historian, and is considered one of the best known English mapmakers of the early modern period. Following encouragement from English antiquarian and historian William Camden, Speed began this work, published first in 1611 as the 'Historie of Great Britaine&apos. Many of the historical sources utilised for the work remain unknown, although they do include the work of cartographers Christopher Saxton and John Norden. The work is considered a continuation of The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine, first published between 1611 and 1612, within which is contained the first set of individual county maps of England and Wales. Speed himself considered his History of Great Britaine his major work, the majority of which was funded by Sir Fulke Grevillean, the Elizabethan poet, dramatist, and statesman. The work offers a highly detailed summary of Early English history, and whilst the work has been criticised for a number of inaccuracies, the subsequent frequent citations of the work in later historical pieces reflect its historical significance. Among others, the work offers detailed information regarding the early successors and founders of English institutions including The Saxons, Henry VIII and Edward IV. Written by one of the most influential historians and cartographers of the early modern period, this extremely scarce 1614 edition of The History of Great Britaine is a sought after piece of significant historical and literary non fiction. Rebacked with the original contemporary calf boards preserved. Externally very smart with professional repair to the extremities. Slight rubbing and marking to the boards. Hinges slightly strained but firm. Evidence of bookplate removal to rear pastedown. Internally firmly bound. Engraved title page has been trimmed and mounted with slight loss to fore edge. Lacking front and rear blank and errata leaf to the rear of the work. The occasional light tidemark to the extremity of the occasional leaf. Handling marks and the occasional spot. The occasional contemporary ink annotations, heavier to the final leaf. The occasional closed tear. Professional repair to leaf 5A2. Very Good . Ill.: Christoph Schweitzer. Very Good .
