Bright and clean, light shelfwear to upper edge of jacket. A fairly intense character study of an ex-war photographer and the moral questions that one would expect to arise from a review of his working life forced by a confrontation with a victim/soldier he once photographed. Some fairly graphic descriptions of the atrocities of war. Not one for light reading on the beach but intense and written in Perez-Reverte's own style of swirling memories that usually conjure the images he conveys. (Reader review) Quantity Available: 1.

Description:
Yale University Press, 1990. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Clean unmarked pages, firmly bound, slight wear to cover edges. 'Art', declared Vasari in Lives of the Artists, has been reborn and reached perfection in our time'. Indeed the roster of great names in painting of the Cinquecento, which only begins with those of Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael, appears to justify this grand claim. Professor Freedberg here discusses the individual painters and analyses the hallmarks of their work. He traces the classical style of the High Renaissance, the Mannerism that succeeded it, and the events, in North Italy especially, that resist stylistic categories. He has given order to this diversity, but at the same time has preserved the intense individuality of the works of art.B&W photos. 768 pages. Quantity Available: 1.

Description:
Thames & Hudson, 2006. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Very Good. Clean bright glossy pages, firmly bound; unclipped jacket, a few superficial scratch marks near upper edge on rear of jacket. A large, heavy volume. Dorinda Outram succeeds in combining a very well written text with a spectacular variety of illustrations to produce an account of the Enlightenment that is both subtly nuanced and interesting to read. The rich selection of paintings, engravings and architectural illustrations take us inside the world of 18th century enquiry. The Enlightenment is a complex phenomenon with many different outlooks in many different centres. Outram explains very well the controversies and disagreements, while still conveying the extraordinary journey of European culture from the authority of the church and the monarch to the enquiring mind of the citizen. There are as many definitions of the Enlightenment as there are major figures within it - Newton, Kant, Rousseau, Voltaire, Diderot - but…
