New York: Henry Holt & Company, 1875. First Impression. Hardcover. In quite good condition.. Octavo, [22.25cm/8.75inches], Full fancy gilt-embossed calf, sans dust jacket, pp. 401, indexed. Illustrated with texual vignettes by John Ames Mitchell, (1845-1918). Painter, etcher, illustrator, novelist, editor and publisher. Mitchell began his academic career at the Phillip Exeter Academy and then enrolled at Harvard Medical School. There is, however, no evidence that he finished his courses there. John Ames Mitchell then went to France to study architecture and upon his return to the United States worked in this discipline in Boston for a period of six years. At that point John Ames Mitchell came to the conclusion that architecture was not for him and he again went to Paris to study painting and etching at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. Returning once more to the United States, John Ames Mitchell settled in the New York community of Washington Square and began a career as an illustrator and etcher. Fascinated with both etchings and pen and ink drawings he began to entertain the idea of creating a magazine of art, humor and literature which would promote illustrative drawings. Against the advice of all his friends, John Ames Mitchell withdrew his life savings of ten thousand dollars from the bank in 1883. That year he founded Life Magazine and served as both publisher and editor throughout the rest of his life. John Ames Mitchell's first etching was created in France in 1877 and published by Cadart. Besides his career in art, John Ames Mitchell was also a well regarded author of fiction. His most famous novels include Amos Judd, 1895, and The Pines of Lory, 1901. "American Art Review": Inspired by the European etched art of James McNeill Whistler, Charles Meryon, Sir Francis Seymour Haden and others, a large number of American artists became seriously interested in the art of etching by 1875. A primary catalyst to the etching revival in America was the journal, American Art Review (1879-1881). Founded and edited by Sylvester Rosa Koehler it commissioned American artists for original etchings. Contributing etchers included such famous artists as Thomas and Peter Moran, Otto Bacher, Kruseman van Elten, J. M. Falconer, F. S. Church, Robert Swain Gifford, Henry Farrer, Samuel Coleman, J. A. Mitchell, Robert Swain Gifford and James D. Smillie. Each etching published by the American Art Review was printed in a limited edition of 500 impressions on fine China paper which was then pressed onto a larger sheet of white, wove paper. Due mostly to its lavish production costs the journal lasted only slightly over two years. The finely printed etchings it produced, however, served as a cornerstone for the many great American etchings of the early twentieth century. A Young Republican was commissioned by the American Art Review in 1881. ( From the Internet). The book came from the estate of a member of the Ulysses S. Grant Family.

The description of Jennifer Lorn when Gerald Poynyard first sees her is typical. The girl (she’s just seventeen when Poynyard decides after a single glance that he wants to marry her) is beautiful, of course. While Wylie does remark on the title character’s features – her “complexion of rose and cream” – she devotes significant space to describing a painted representation of her. She writes of a miniature portrait that didn’t exist after the French Revolution: “it seems a pity that the little ivory oval did not survive the Reign of Terror, as by all accounts it must have been not only an excellent likeness but a delicate and distinguished work of art. ” The picture has a counterpart in “The Byzantine Image” of the Virgin Mary that appears in the chapter of that title. Not only does one suggest the other, the “carving of great antiquity” takes the place of the one Poynyard never picked up from the Parisian painter. Echoing too the red jasper bowl Poynyard purchased for his bride but then decided not to part with, the image he takes from the hands of an expiring prince prostrate on his wife’s grave is more valuable to him as “an exquisite work of art” than for the “distinct resemblance to [his] late dear wife. ”Finely calibrated tension between love for beautiful things and love between actual people vibrates through much of Wylie’s writing. In Jennifer Lorn, she mocks the pompous and uncaring husband for his preference, yet devotion to the decorative animates all her work. The aesthetic outlook Lorn attributes to the husband at times seems like it could be Wylie’s own: “his taste was always for the fanciful and singular, though chaste and delicate, in art. ”" ., George H.

The first piece of the Logos edition of the Patrologia Graeca represents the first 18 volumes (20 volumes in print) of the entire 161-volume set, roughly covering the ante-Nicene Fathers (pre-fourth century, prior to the epoch-marking Council of Nicaea). These volumes include the writings of the Apostolic Fathers, the post-Apostolic Fathers, apologists, and other ante-Nicene Fathers.Between the years of 1857 and 1866, an industrious French monk, the abbé Jacques Paul Migne, published the 161 volumes that make up the Patrologiae Cursus Completus, Series Graeca, roughly translated 'Complete Course on Patrology, Greek Series,' and commonly referred to as “Patrologia Graeca” (PG). These volumes contain much of the available extant witness in Greek to the writings of the Fathers of the early church. Each volume of the Patrologia Graeca contains not only Greek editions of writings of the Fathers, but also includes lengthy dissertations, introductions, and other supplementary material. Many editions even contain notes on textual variants found among other manuscripts, along with explanatory material written in Latin." (Logos.com)Also, per Wikipedia, "The Patrologia Graeca is an edited collection of writings by the Christian Church Fathers and various secular writers, in the Greek language. It consists of 161 volumes produced in 1857–1866 by J. P. Migne's Imprimerie Catholique, Paris. It includes both the Eastern Fathers and those Western authors who wrote before Latin became predominant in the Western Church in the 3rd century, e.g. the early writings collectively known as the Apostolic Fathers, such as the First and Second Epistle of Clement, the Shepherd of Hermas, Eusebius, Origen, and the Cappadocian Fathers Basil the Great, Gregory of Nazianzus, and Gregory of Nyssa.The 161 volumes are bound as 166 (vols. 16 and 87 being in three parts and vol. 86 in two). An important final volume, which included some supplements and a full index, was never published, as the plates were destroyed in a fire (1868) at the printer.The first series contained only Latin translations of the originals (81 vols., 1856-61). The second series contains the Greek text with a Latin translation (166 vols., 1857-66). The texts are interlaced, with one column of Greek and a corresponding column on the other side of the page that is the Latin translation. Where the Greek original has been lost, as in the case of Irenaeus, the extant Greek fragments are interspersed throughout the Latin text. In one instance, the original is preserved in Syriac only and translated into Latin. Quite often, information about the author is provided, also in Latin." (Wikipedia).

Language: Svenska --- Information regarding the book: Skriva jämtska – Ortografisk vägledning för skandinaviska folkmål Mitt syfte med den här boken är att jag vill understryka för alla jämtsktalande – och talare av ett älskat folkmål, bygdemål eller minoritetsspråk vilket det än vara månde – att inse, att minoritetsspråk kräver dels funktionella skrift­system, dels officiella rättigheter för att kunna leva vidare. Boken beskriver de inre hindren och de yttre hindren mot jämtska, vilka i sig inte alls är unika – å ena sidan det inrotade, minoritetsspråkliga under­lägsenhetsbeteendet och den språkliga självförnekelsen och därmed den tillhörande oförmågan att språkpolitiskt arbeta för det egna, traditionella språket – å andra sidan den svenska enhetsstatens och det svenska samhällets totala uppslutning kring språkpolitiskt motstånd mot regionala språk eller rent av ett svenskt landsmål. Den röda tråden är ett 40-tal fonetiskt och ortografiskt kritiska element, som utmärker de nordiska språken och de skandinaviska folkmålen. I anslutning till dessa görs inblickar i språkhistoria, orto­grafisk historia och språkpolitik – och i avslöjande av bristen på samordnade, nordiska skriftspråks­överenskommelser. I övrigt har jag tagit tillfället i akt att delta i det språkvetenskapliga samtalet, som i flera avseenden gäller jämtska. Håkan Roos ”Denne boka gir oss ein fagleg og lett tilgjengeleg gjennomgang av særdrag i jemtsk. Derfor blir boka til stor glede for alle oss som ønskjer at statsgrensene ikkje skal vere til hinder for kunnskapen om det store samanhengande nordiske dialektområdet. Innfallsvinkelen er ikkje tradisjonell etter grammatiske disposisjonar, men etter spørsmål som dukkar opp når ein ønskjer å lage eit skriftmål for jemtsk. Som presentasjonsform er dette interessant, originalt og pedagogisk. Det gir forfattaren høve til samtidig å formidle grundig kunnskap om europeisk og nordisk ortografi- og normhistorie ..” (Läs fullständigt omdöme på sida 176.) Helge Sandøy, professor emeritus, nordisk språkvitenskap. Institutt for lingvistiske, litterære og estetiske studier, Universitetet i Bergen. ”.. Håkan Roos lärda analys av jämtskan som talspråk och skriftspråk är en upprättelse av den lokala kulturens betydelse. Att den i sin tur är ett fundament för demokratin är en självklarhet. Språket är centralt för kulturarvet och självkänslan den kanske viktigaste grunden för den egna förmågan. Om man till detta lägger öppenhet för ny kunskap och vilja till samarbete även i de större sammanhangen finns det inget som slår denna brygd för överlevnad. Det är en ytterst välskriven framställning som vi får ta del av och ett vad jag förstår unikt bidrag till jämtländsk kulturhistoria.” (Läs fullständigt omdöme på sida 176.)

Zusammenfassung – Schreiben Jämtländisch. Ortografische Anweisung für Skandinawischen Dialekte Skriva jämtska. Ortografisk vägledning för skandinaviska folkmål. Schweden hat wie alle anderen Länder in Europa neben einer dominanten Amtssprache (viele Länder haben mehr als eine) mehrere Herkunftssprachen, Minderheitsprachen, Regionalsprachen, Sprachvarianten und Dialekte mit einem Hintergrund der Vertreibung, Unterdrückung oder Verboten. Schweden als Staat wie andere Königreiche hat ebenfalls große territoriale Veränderungen erfahren, war jedoch im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Staaten keinen ausländischen Staaten ausgesetzt – mit Ausnahme der jetzt schwedischen Provinzen Gotland, Jämtland, Härjedalen, Norddalarna, Bohuslän, Halland, Skåne und Blekinge, die ein- oder mehrmals die Staatszugehörigkeit geändert haben. Ausnahmen vom ausländischen Einfluss waren die wiederholten Ernennungen ausländischer Fürsten zu schwedischen Herrschern. Dies war der verblüffende Ausweg, auf den der oft uneinige Adel zurückgriff, wenn keine Thronfolger vorhanden waren – wenn Spekulationen über Macht und Einfluss auf Menschen, Land und Produktion wichtiger waren als Regenten unter Landsleuten innen der kulturellen Gemeinschaft, mit Sprachaffinität, für Repräsentativität, zu wählen. Als germanisches Sprachgebiet bis zum Ende der altnordischen Sprache um das 11. Jahrhundert – von der Eisenzeit über die Migrationsperiode bis zur Wikingerzeit – hatte die nordische Region eine weitgehend gemeinsame Sprache (abgesehen von den finno-ugrischen Sprachen). Die Sprachänderungen vor dieser Zeit in den nordischen Ländern waren hauptsächlich interlinguistisch. Mit zunehmender technologischer Entwicklung wurden durch die Schaffung einer produktiven Landwirtschaft – in einigen Gebieten dank der Landhebung - wirtschaftliche Bedingungen für verbesserte Lebensbedingungen geschaffen. Mit größeren Bedürfnissen und Anforderungen konnte ein zunehmender Handel entwickelt werden und mit größeren Volksbewegungen in immer größeren Gebieten könnten auch kulturelle Elemente und Sprachelemente ausgetauscht werden. Ein Beispiel ist die Verbreitung von Sprachelementen und Toponymen in "Dem  Scandinavischen Pferdeschuh" von Västergötland entlang der norwegischen Küstenlandschaften über Trøndelag bis nach Jämtland und Ångermanland, einem Kulturstrom, der hauptsächlich die entwickelte Schiffbaukunst als Voraussetzung hatte. Ein weiteres Beispiel ist die Ausbreitung vom Zungenschlag-l (Apiko-kakuminales l) aus den ausgedehnten landwirtschaftlichen Gebieten in Uppland im nordischen Sprachgebiet des zentralen Festlandes. Es entwickelte sich eine tragische, aber auf seine Weise nicht ungewöhnliche nachbarschaftliche Beziehung zwischen Dänemark und Schweden – ein verheerender Umgang mit Krieg, Konflikt, Wettbewerb, Zollschranken, Neid aber auch Bewunderung, Anregung, Antrieb und manchmal Austausch zu etwas, das ein nordischer Geist sein könnte – das alles bekam Folgen für die schwedischen Sprachbedingungen. Mit dem Christentum und seinem Aufbau der Gesellschaft als neuem Machtsystem kamen eine Reihe neuer nichtlinguistischer Kräfte hinzu, die die nordische Sprache schließlich in verschiedene Sprachen aufteilten: zunehmende Staatsformationen, verschiedene Arten der Arbeitsmigration, starke königliche Kräfte durch Gottes Gnade, eigene Handelswege, Ausarbeitung der Machtsprache, Bibelübersetzungen in die Sprache der Machteliten. Dies legte den Grundstein und ebnete den Weg für die Schaffung der Sprachformen, die später als nordische, individuelle Nationalsprachen bezeichnet wurden. Durch die Verschlechterung des Klima und damit den wirtschaftlichen Niedergang in Norwegen konnte Dänemark bereits vor der Zeit der Kalmar-Union (1397-1523) die Herrschaft und Macht in Norwegen beanspruchen und dem Land auch die dänische Schriftsprache und damit eine darauf basierende neue gesprochene Sprache zu versehen. Dänemark übernahm auch Norwegens führende Rolle im Atlantikreich – und wurde das führende Reich in der nordischen Region. Die Hoffnungen der dänischen Monarchie, die schwedische Macht zu besiegen, wurden jedoch von Gustav Eriksson von Vaasa und dem Kreis um ihn herum vereitelt. Die feindlichen Beziehungen zwischen der schwedischen und der dänischen Führung entwickelten sich zu wahrheitsgemäßen, lang anhaltenden Staatskonflikten. Im Laufe der Zeit erlangte Schweden einen militärischen Vorteil, aber Schweden konnte nicht mit Dänemark um die führende soziale, wirtschaftliche und humanistische Führungsposition in den nordischen Ländern konkurrieren. Die schwedischen Unzulänglichkeiten und die Wachsamkeit gegenüber Dänemark hatten zur Folge, dass die schwedische Verwaltung besondere Wege bei der Entwicklung der Schriftsprache eingeschlagen hatte, als die Sprache für die Schaffung der schwedischen Staatsangehörigkeit und der nationalen Identität an Bedeutung gewann. Im Zusammenhang mit der Entwicklung der Druckkunst verließen sie das dänische, frühnordische Zeichensystem, wählten eine andere Zeichennutzung und entschieden sich für andere Rechtschreibregeln als im Dänischen, um die schwedische Schriftsprache so unterschiedlich wie möglich von der Dänischen zu machen – was auch Konsequenzen für die gesprochene schwedische Sprache hatte. Die schwierigen nordischen Bedingungen ließen die Schweden in größerer Entfernung Handel, Gelddarlehen und diplomatische Beziehungen gewinnen. Besonders gute Beziehungen wurden zu den deutschen Handelsunternehmen und zu den deutschen Fürstenhäusern aufgebaut. Mit dem großen deutschen Einfluss der Arbeitsmigration, den deutschen Fürsten als schwedischen Königen und dem umfangreichen deutschen Handel änderten sich die Dominanzbedingungen innerhalb des schwedischen Establishments. Mit dem französischen Modell prägte die schwedische Militärdiktatur während der schwedischen Blütezeit den starken schwedischen Einheitsstaat. Die Sprache des schwedischen Staates entwickelte sich weitgehend zu einer Art niederdeutscher Sprachform, die unmittelbar von der Verwaltung, der Kirche, den Streitkräften, der Schule und der Bildung vertreten wurde. In dem extrem langgestreckten und großen, dünn besiedelten Land, das von umfassenden Kriegseinziehungen geplagt wurde, hatten die schwachen lokalen Gemeinschaften nicht die Kraft und Gelegenheit, die lokalen, traditionellen Sprachen zu behaupten. Die neue, ausländisch merkwürdige und teilweise fremde schwedische Sprache führte zu einem sozial differenzierten Sprachgebrauch und damit zu sprachlichen Klassenunterschieden und legte den Grundstein für die schwedische Sprachverwirrung. Die Sprache dieses Staates ist seitdem die Grundlage für die schwedische Sprachpolitik – besonders auffällig für die Schwedisierung in den oben erwähnten neuen Landesteilen. Das „Folkland“ Jämtland, das nach der schwedischen Übernahme Teil mehrerer schwedischer Verwaltungsbereiche war, zeichnet sich historisch dadurch aus, dass es bis 1645 (mit Ausnahme des Zeitraums 1563-1570) zivil zu Dänemark/Norwegen gehörte aber seit der frühesten Kirchenverwaltung organisatorisch kirchlich durch das Erzbistum in Uppsala zu Schweden gehört hatte. Das Land unterlag der Steuerpflicht gegenüber zwei verschiedenen Machtsystemen, was zu ständigen Loyalitätskonflikten bei wiederholten militärischen Invasionen und der Forderung nach einem Staatswechsel führte. Dies dauerte bis ins 18. Jahrhundert. Jämtland unterscheidet sich von anderen „Folkländern“ durch mehrere kulturhistorischen Aspekte. In der Volkstradition haben die Jämtländern trotz eines anhaltenden schwedischen Prozesses das westnordische Spracherbe bewahrt. Durch die schwedische Sprachpolitik wurden keine Mittel für die Landessprache in Jämtland und für die Bildung in dieser bereitgestellt. Es wurde keine akzeptable Rechtschreibung für die jämtländische Landesssprache erstellt – so wenig wie für andere traditionelle indigene Landessprachen in Schweden. Jämtländisch lebt ein Schicksal, das für alle unterdrückten und verbotenen Minderheitensprachen gleich ist – eine Sprachsituation, die die Grundlage für Sprachverachtung legt und sprachliche Selbstverachtung und sprachliches Stigma verursacht. Seit der Zeit der Nationalen Romantik wurde in Jämtländisch viel Literatur verschiedener Art geschrieben. Seitdem wurden mehrere Zeiträume lang verschiedene Versuche unternommen Jämtländisch zu erhalten. Die beiden wichtigsten Elemente für die Erhaltung einer Sprache hat man jedoch nicht das Wissen, die Macht oder die Fähigkeit, für sie zu arbeiten: eine korrekte Rechtschreibung und einen offiziellen Sprachstatus. Dieses Buch, Schreiben Jämtländisch. Ortografische Anweisungen für Skandinawischen Dialekte, vereint wissenschaftliche, sprachliche, pädagogische und methodische Argumente für eine solche funktionierende Rechtschreibung. Die gewählten Ausgangspunkte sind die den nordischen Sprachen gemeinsame altnordische Sprache, das frühe nordische Zeichensystem, die Grundideen über Neu-Norwegisch, das gemeinsame nordische Denken, die universelle Perspektive, der skandinavische Literaturmarkt und die etymologisch korrekten, aber gleichzeitig sprachnahen Schreibnormen. Im Hintergrund wird auch eine kritische Haltung gegenüber der schwedischen Schriftsprache eingenommen, die sich unter den nordischen Schriftsprachen durch die meisten Besonderheiten in Bezug auf Zeichensysteme, Zeichennutzung und Rechtschreibregeln auszeichnet. Sprachlaut-Rechtschreibung basierend auf schwedischen Schreibregeln und schwedischen Leseregeln – denen alle Jämtländer als schwedischen Bürger in der Schule begegnen – sind beim Schreiben der sehr unterschiedlichen Sprache Jämtländisch weitgehend funktionsunfähig – mit dem großen Ziel, Jämtland als historische, nationale Minderheitensprache zu erhalten. Mit dem zunehmend ausgeprägten Lesen von Buchstaben fehlen der schwedischen Sprache in der schwedischen Sprachkultur allgemeine Erkenntnisse über Lesetypen (Lesedefinitionen, Lesestandards, Au, 6, London: n.p..

There are nineteen letter s in all, the first six written anonymously, with Blackwell respo nsible for letters seven to nineteen. Classical mythology had bee n discussed throughout the Christian era from a variety of unsymp athetic standpoints: firstly by critics who saw it as a fanciful form of history; next by Christian commentators who treated the c lassical gods as thinly-disguised demons; and finally by modern r ationalists who saw the mythical system as ultimately irrational and meaningless. Blackwell took a radically different view. Black well saw mythology as "Instruction conveyed in a Tale." It could take the form of metaphor, such as the fables of Aesop, of materi al representation or symbols containing moral or other higher mea ning, and of rituals where mythological concepts were acted out. He then goes on to mention another category, which he regards as the superior one: "the History of the Creation, or Rise of the U niverse, what we call natural Philosophy, and the Ancients called Theogony." . om a variety of sources including not only the literary myths in Greek and Latin and the Orphic Hymns, but French, Spanish, Italia n, Hebrew and Arabic texts, attempting to isolate the surviving o riginal mythic strain from layers of later accretions. . ition: Fair.

As an historian Duruy aimed in his earlier works at a graphic and picturesque narrative which should make his subject popular. His fame, however, rests mainly on the revised edition of his Roman history, which appeared in a greatly enlarged form in 5 vols. under the title of Histoire des Romains depuis les temps les plus reculés jusqu'à la mort de Théodose (1879–1885), an illustrated edition was published from 1879 to 1885 (English translation by WJ Clarke, in 6 vols., 1883–1886). His Histoire des Grecs, similarly illustrated, appeared in 3 volumes from 1886 to 1891 (English translation in 4 volumes, 1892). He was the editor, from its commencement in 1846, of the Histoire universelle, publiée par une société de professeurs et de savants, for which he himself wrote a "Histoire sainte d'après la Bible," "Histoire grecque," "Histoire romaine," "Histoire du moyen âge," "Histoire des temps modernes," and "Abrégé de l'histoire de France." His other works include Atlas historique de la France accompagné d'un volume de texte (1849); Histoire de France de 1453 à 1815 (1856), of which an expanded and illustrated edition appeared as Histoire de France depuis l'invasion des Barbares dans la Gaule romaine jusqu'à nos jours (1892); Histoire populaire de la France (1862–1863); Histoire populaire contemporaine de la France (1864–1866); Causeries de voyage: de Paris à Vienne (1864); and Introduction générale à l'histoire de France (1865).

New and Complete Manual on the Making of Fancy Papers was originally written in French by M. Fichtenberg in 1852. Richard Wolfe has translated the book into English and added a new preface. The craft of marbling paper was introduced into Europe and the Middle East from Turkey and Germany during the last two decades of the sixteenth century, and then into France in the first decade of the seventeenth century. England, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and other European countries began marbling as well, but the production outside of England still remained small. It was not until its introduction into the British Isles in 1750 that marbling increased in popularity. In France, marbling was first performed by bookbinders who catered mainly to the needs of the book trade. This often meant marbled papers were used for decorating "extra" bindings, or even sometimes made for people who restricted their output to wallpaper. Fortunately, the nineteenth century saw a change in French marbling, as they were introduced to a Turkish pattern containing an infusion of turpentine in the final color. This created an appearance of a network of fine, lacey holes. New and Complete Manual on the Making of Fancy Papers documents the changes and innovations in French marbling, and describes the marbling and fancy paper trades of the mid-nineteenth century. It also provides technical details on the manufacture of these papers and is a key source for information that couldn't be found anywhere else at the time. This manual describes many steps in the marbling process. It describes the methods of making colors and the preparation of the aluminum serving to give body to the colors including reds and violets, yellows, blues, and greens. It discusses the preparation of hide glue, paste, glue, glazing, polishers, workshops, troughs, papers that are quilted, papers exhibiting the grain of wood, granite papers, printing, varnishing, sealing wax, and a variety of other details.

It is not a study of the military as an institution. Its concern is with the relationship between ideas and behavior among an elite for whom war was not only a profession but a justification for their social position and privileges.The author has consulted such sources as eye-witness accounts of battles, newsletters, account books and other financial records, and military memoirs. The formal records of secular orders of chivalry, such as the Toison d'Or and the Croissant, are used to demonstrate the influence of chivalrous ideas on war and politics.Vale begins with a review of the literature of honor and virtue and proceeds with an account of the Orders of Chivalry in the fifteenth century. Using contemporary accounts, he discusses chivalric display, the tournament and its function, heraldic display, and medieval funeral ceremony. The techniques of war are described, including the use of cavalry and infantry and the impact of firearms. The author concludes by examining the changes in warfare in the fifteenth and sixteenth century and the response of the nobility to them., 0<
