Summary Elizabethan poet Henry Constable (1562-1613), a Protestant-born Catholic convert, was long dismissed as a minor poet, a Catholic traitor, or both, but his writings reveal unresolved tensions between the public and the private, hope and disillusion, the secular and the religious. This book offers a new comprehensive critical edition of Constable's sonnets. Along with an updated biography and a study of the sonnet collections, the introduction provides an authoritative revision of the canon of Constable's poetry and an overview of its critical reception.

Summary How do we reconstruct ancient societies' cultural and visual identities? Prudence Oliver Harper has dedicated her scholarly and curatorial career to piecing together the material culture of communities across ancient Western Asia, Iran, and Central Asia. A number of her colleagues - art historians, archaeologists, philologists, and conservators - have contributed essays to this volume to reflect Harper's range of contributions throughout her six-decade career. Many of the essays focus on ancient metalwork, Harper's major expertise, while others on glyptics, ivory, or glass, three of her other interests. The essays aim to make sense of this region's diverse cultural identities, many of which are the results of cross-cultural exchange. Some authors have employed iconographical or socio-historical approaches; others have complementarily opened new facets of cultural identities through technical and scientific analyses, collection history, and provenance research.

The volume traces the life and career of Mahler from his birth to his appointment to the Vienna Hofoper. This long awaited revised volume I completes Henry-Louis de La Grange's four-volume English language biography of the Austrian composer Gustav Mahler (1860?1911), which is widely considered to be the definitive work on the subject. The present instalment, covering the years 1860 to 1897, traces the life and career of Mahler from his birth in a small village in Bohemia to his appointment to the Vienna Hofoper, then the most prestigious opera house in the world. It describes his family background, his student days at the Vienna Conservatory, his private life, and his burgeoning career as both conductor and composer. Starting at a small summer theatre in Bad Hall, his first engagements took him to Laibach (Ljubljana), Olm tz (Olomouc), Kassel, Prague, and Leipzig, before he was appointed to principal posts at the important opera houses of Budapest (1888) and Hamburg (1891). By now Mahler had also begun to establish himself as a composer. Some of his major works ? starting with Das Klagende Lied (1881) ? the early Wunderhorn songs, Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen , and the first three symphonies date from this period of his life. While regularly rejected by contemporary critics, today they are favourites of the concert repertoire. Widely recognised as Gustav Mahler's pre-eminent biographer, Henry-Louis de La Grange (1924?2017) ? author of the 4-volume, 5,000-page definitive study of the composer's life and work ? was awarded a professorship by the government of Austria and an honorary Doctorate from the Juilliard School of Music. He lectured extensively, organised concerts, exhibitions, and music festivals, and contributed to film documentaries and radio features. Together with Maurice Fleuret he founded the M diath que Musicale Mahler in Paris. German musicologist and conductor Sybille Werner started working with Henry-Louis de La Grange in 2003. She has repeatedly lectured and published on the performance history of Mahler's works, and in 2018 received the Mahler Award of the Sociedad Mahler Mexico. Her conducting activities have taken her beyond New York, her former residence, and the USA to Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, and the UK. Currently she is based in Toblach and associated with the Gustav Mahler Music Weeks.

William Henry Goodyear (1846 1923) was the Brooklyn Museum s first Curator of Fine Arts from 1899 to 1923. In addition to being a vital force in the early years of the Museum s Fine Arts Department, Goodyear was dedicated to research in art history and architectural theory, which he began pursuing during his post-collegiate education in Europe and continued until his final days at the Brooklyn Museum. He spent much of his life developing and promoting his theory of architectural refinements, often lecturing and exhibiting on the subject and attracting both supportive and critical reactions. Goodyear s professional work and research had an influence on the fields of museology, art, and architectural history and his accomplishments have left an enduring impression.

Twintig portretten van uitzonderlijke Vlaamse missionarissen. Een nooit eerder gezien beeld van het missieleven en -werk. Zij, Witte Zuster, behoedde duizenden Ethiopi rs voor blindheid. Hij, salesiaan, trotseerde de ondoordringbare Amazonejungle om de Shuar-indianen te bemoedigen. Zij, Zuster van de Jacht, gaf Indiase misbruikte kindslaafjes een toekomst. Hij, scheutist, trok in China de kaart van de interculturele dialoog, een opgave op het scherp van de snee. Vanwaar kwam dat onstuimige vuur om te dienen? Voor welk ideaal braken deze mensen met comfort en familiale geborgenheid? Wat dreef hen? Een wenk van God? Zat het in hun wil, durf of genen? De 'familie' van de Vlaamse missionarissen dunt uit. Met hun dood wordt een schat aan informatie begraven. BERNARD HENRY, bekend als stevig gedocumenteerd etnografisch verteller, interviewde daarom de meest gedreven Vlaamse missionarissen en missiezusters. Hun frappante 'memoires' geven samen met nooit eerder gepubliceerde foto's een unieke inkijk in hun 'vreemde' roeping, hun kleurrijke leven en buitengewone werk over heel de wereld. Op trot voor God is een ontroerend biografisch 'reisboek' met spirituele avonturen van twintig zonderlinge Vlaamse missionarissen (m/v).
