Hardcover. Condizione: Gut. 370 pp., 10 fig. col., 12 fig. b/w, 7 tables. An excellent copy. - Summary: This edited volume offers the first overview on human-animal history in the Baltics. Investigating historical entanglements between human and non-human animals from the pre-Christian times to the Soviet period and discussing a wide range of species, the volume integrates transnational study of Baltic history and culture with interdisciplinary human-animal studies. Taking the interrelatedness of species as a premise, the contributions focus on a variety of contacts and their representations in written, material, visual and other sources of Baltic history. Covering a time period of nearly one thousand years, the chapters also make it possible to trace continuity and change in Baltic human-animal history over extended periods. - Contents: Linda Kaljundi, Ulrike Plath, Kadri Tüür: Introduction.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This is a significant new study of the festival culture of northern Europe in the later Middle Ages: more specifically of the German-speaking communities of the great cities of the eastern Baltic littoral in what was then called Livonia, corresponding roughly to the territories of present-day Estonia and Latvia. While subject to a degree of Scandinavian influence, the festival culture of Livonian cities such as Riga, Reval (Tallinn), and Dorpat (Tartu), which were members of the Hanseatic League, substantially overlapped with that of other German-speaking areas, not least the Hanseatic cities of northern Germany. The major part of the book is devoted to the main annual festivals of the merchants' guilds: Christmas, Carnival, the popinjay shoot, and the May Count celebrations. There follows an analysis of specific aspects of the festivals: spatial contexts, finances, food and drink, entertainments (dances, jousts, games), customs and rituals. There is also a concluding glance at changes in festival culture after the Reformation. The study combines close scrutiny of local customs (made possible by the almost miraculous survival of uniquely detailed documentation), contextualization within the wider comparative context of festival culture in late-medieval Europe, and an alterness to significant recent scholarship in both English and German.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This volume examines the relationship between medieval cults of saints and regional and national identity formation in Europe both during and, to some extent, beyond the Middle Ages. It studies how collective identities have been expressed through saints' cults and their appropriations in texts, visual representations, and music. Attention is given to various aspects of the role of medieval saints' cults in European identity formation, as saints were used in the service of both religious and political agendas. Focusing on a range of European regions, this volume uses cults of medieval saints and their religious, cultural and political appropriations over time as a vehicle for studying changing cultural and social values. The articles here report research carried out under the European Science Foundation's collaborative EuroCORECODE project: Symbols that Bind and Break Communities: Saints' Cults as Stimuli and Expressions of Local, Regional, National and Universalist Identities (20102013/14), an international, interdisciplinary research venture funded by the National Research Councils of five countries: Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Hungary, and Norway. This volume examines the relationship between medieval cults of saints and regional and national identity formation in Europe both during and, to some extent, beyond the Middle Ages. It studies how collective identities have been expressed through saints cults and their appropriations in texts, visual representations, and music.

Condizione: new. Pages: 216 Language: Estonian. Kullal ja hõbedal on inimkonna ajaloos olnud erakordselt suur roll. Neil on palju väärtuslikke omadusi: nad on säravad, vastupidavad ja kergesti töödeldavad, nad on haruldased ja seetõttu kallid ja ihaldusväärsed. Ent praktilise väärtuse kõrval on alati olnud oluline ka kuld- ja hõbeesemete sümboolne tähendus. Raamatus ei ole esemeid mitte üksnes kirjeldatud, vaid jutustatakse ka lugusid sellest, milleks neid loodi ja mis puhuks kingiti, kuidas kasutati ja kaunistati, mida tähendavad neil leiduvad märgid ja sümbolid ning kuidas esemete omanikud või kinkijad end hõbeteostel jäädvustasid. Samuti saab lugeda kullasseppadest, kes neid esemeid lõid: nende päritolust, loomingust ja karjäärimustritest. Selleks, et huvilistel oleks võimalik kirjeldatud aardeid oma silmaga muuseumides kaeda, on ära märgitud ka nende praegused asukohad (mis alati ei kattu muuseumiga, mille kogusse ese kuulub). 9789985344651.…
