Описание:

On War is a book on military strategy by Prussian general Carl von Clausewitz, written mostly after the Napoleonic wars, between 1816 and 1830, and published posthumously in 1832. On War is one of the most important treatises on political-military analysis and strategy ever written, and remains both controversial and an influence on strategic thinking.

Clausewitz was among those intrigued by the manner in which the leaders of the French Revolution, especially Napoleon, had changed the conduct of war through their ability to motivate the populace and to gain access to the full resources of the state; thus unleashing war on a greater scale than had previously been seen in Europe. Clausewitz was well educated and had strong interests in art, history, science, and education. He was a professional soldier who spent a considerable part of his life fighting against Napoleon. The insights he gained from his political and military experiences, combined with a solid grasp of European history, allowed Clausewitz to write a definitive book on military strategy.

This edition contains all three volumes of On War, and includes an introduction, a biography, and annotations. This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.

Описание:

Divided into seven books, The Jewish War opens with a summary of Jewish history from the capture of Jerusalem by the Seleucid ruler Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 168 BC to the first stages of the First Jewish-Roman War. The next five books detail the unfolding of the war, under Roman generals Vespasian and Titus, to the death of the last Sicarii.

The Jewish War is written by Josephus, a Roman-Jewish historian of the 1st century. In the wake of the suppression of the Jewish revolt, Josephus would have witnessed the marches of Titus's triumphant legions leading their Jewish captives, and carrying treasures from the despoiled Temple in Jerusalem. It was against this background that Josephus wrote his War, claiming to be countering anti-Judean accounts. The Jewish War has been described as the most influential non-biblical text of Western history.

This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.

Описание:

The story begins with Folly, parading as a goddess and praising herself endlessly, arguing that life would be dull and distasteful without her. Praise of Folly is a satirical attack on superstitions and other traditions of European society as well as on the Western Church. The essay is filled with classical allusions delivered in a style typical of the learned humanists of the Renaissance.

Erasmus revised and extended Praise of Folly, which was originally written in the space of a week while sojourning with Sir Thomas More at More's house in Bucklersbury in the City of London. The title Moriae Encomium had a punning second meaning as In Praise of More. Praise of Folly is considered one of the most notable works of the Renaissance and played an important role in the beginnings of the Protestant Reformation, which stemmed from the foundation of critique which the essay laid against the practices of the Church and its political allies.

This cloth-bound book includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket, and is limited to 100 copies.
