Описание: This is a book about why medieval manuscripts matter. Coming face to face with an important illuminated manuscript in the original is like meeting a very famous person. We may all pretend that a well-known celebrity is no different from anyone else, and yet there is an undeniable thrill in actually meeting and talking to a person of world stature.The idea for the book, which is entirely new, is to invite the reader into intimate conversations with twelve of the most famous manuscripts in existence and to explore with the author what they tell us about nearly a thousand years of medieval history - and sometimes about the modern world too. Christopher de Hamel introduces us to kings, queens, saints, scribes, artists, librarians, thieves, dealers, collectors and the international community of manuscript scholars, showing us how he and his fellows piece together evidence to reach unexpected conclusions. He traces the elaborate journeys which these exceptionally precious artefacts have made through time and space, shows us how they have been copied, who has owned them or lusted after them (and how we can tell), how they have been embroiled in politics and scholarly disputes, how they have been regarded as objects of supreme beauty and luxury and as symbols of national identity. The book touches on religion, art, literature, music, science and the history of taste.Part travel book, part detective story, part conversation with the reader, Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts conveys the fascination and excitement of encountering some of the greatest works of art in our culture which, in the originals, are to most people completely inaccessible. At the end, we have a slightly different perspective on history and how we come by knowledge. It is a most unusual book.

Описание: ESL Vocabulary, Grammar & Conversation Cards have been developed to supplement English-as-a-Second-Language textbooks and curriculum -- not to replace them. They are meant to enhance and bring variety to an already-existing English language teaching program. These activities are designed for ESL students who may need additional practice in grammar, conversation and word building. Each activity is accompanied by a lesson plan and suggested teaching techniques to assist the instructor in providing an interesting and successful lesson. The activities can also provide a useful resource for substitute teachers and tutors. No matter how good or complete the content of your textbook or curriculum may be, there will always be a need to fill in the gaps in knowledge and skills your students were assumed to have learned. These activities are designed to - provide students with fun group activities - encourage group interaction and discussion- increase individual student's speaking time during class - expand students' use of new vocabulary and expressions- review already-taught materials in a new way- keep the students' minds active and engaged - practice vocabulary and phrases in context - make inferences, evaluating choices and values in discussions - refresh grammar points that have already been taught. Making the Cards - To make a set of cards, cut along the dotted line. If you want to keep this book intact, make photocopies. For large classes make multiple copies. Card stock is recommended, but regular photocopy paper is fi ne. Place a rubber band around the cards and put them into a small envelope for easy handling and future storage.

Описание: The people who made, saved and sometimes destroyed medieval manuscripts, over a thousand years of history, from the acclaimed author of Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts The Manuscripts Club tells of twelve men and women, from the eleventh century to the twentieth, who all share an overwhelming obsession with illuminated manuscripts. The saint, the patron, the bookseller, the artist, the antiquary, the collector, the rabbi, the savant, the librarian, the editor, the forger and the curator had very different reasons for their passion, but manuscripts animated the lives of them all. Christopher de Hamel takes us into in their homes and workplaces, from the monasteries and synagogues of Normandy and Moravia to the universities of Germany and the museums of America, to chart a kinship of minds and to peer into these extraordinary lives among manuscripts. In the pages of his book, remarkable manuscripts tumble through the centuries, connecting a French prince and a Greek peasant and a Black curator. This is a story about society and manuscripts, what manuscripts do for people, and why they mattered and still matter to us. He demonstrates the enduring hold on our imaginations that these works carry, and the transcendent human connection that they represent. It is also a story of greed, discovery and disaster and of the unquenchable joy in the greatest and most treasured books ever made.
