Sinopse

Ink Making Methods explores the rich history and complex chemistry behind ink, tracing its evolution from ancient soot-based concoctions to modern, chemically sophisticated formulas. The book uniquely blends art history and archival science, examining how different ink recipes influenced manuscript production and artistic techniques across civilizations. Early inks, for instance, relied on readily available materials like gum Arabic as binders, significantly shaping writing styles of the time. The narrative progresses chronologically, starting with ancient inks and their cultural significance, then moving to the alchemical innovations of the Medieval and Renaissance periods, exemplified by the widespread use of iron gall ink. This type of ink, while historically important, is known for its corrosive effect on parchment. The book culminates in an exploration of modern ink chemistry, detailing the role of synthetic dyes and pigments while also addressing the environmental impact of ink production. Throughout, the book combines historical accounts, scientific data, and artistic analyses to provide a comprehensive understanding.

    The Road to Serfdom

    A classic work in political philosophy, intellectual history and economics, The Road to Serfdom has inspired and infuriated politicians and scholars for half a century. Originally published in 1944, it was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production. For Hayek, the collectivist idea of empowering government with increasing economic control would lead not to a utopia but to the horrors of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy.

    Here in the pages of this compact little book are thousands of years history about a county which has many stories to tell, all laid out in an informative but easy-to-read way. From Roman times when three roads traversed its landscape, to its involvement in the Civil War, Worcestershire has seen it all.
    The county's people, who were employed in the coal mines and iron foundries of the north, in the salt works of Droitwich, who made nails in Bromsgrove, needles in Redditch and carpets in Kidderminster, all have tales to share. Some played a part in historic events: two brothers travelled to a new life on the Mayflower and three brothers were involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Worcestershire is also home to well-known politicians, musicians and poets. They all contributed to the story of Worcestershire and can be found in the pages of this 'little history'.

    The year is 878.  Young King Alfred struggles to regain his West Saxon kingdom from the invading pagan Danes led by Gormr (aka Guthrum, aka Godrum).   His kingdom overrun, Alfred joins Gormr's court disguised as a Welsh gleeman.  Gormr consults Alfred as a counselor and wizard, but resists Alfred's attempts to convert him.   Meanwhile Alfred learns that his lady and their children are Gormr's prisoners.  Escaping to the western fens, he leads a small army against the Danes.   The rest is history.  This is an epic poem set in the Old English culture of Christian warriors, i.e., Romanized Germanic former pagans, contending with contemporary Scandinavian Germanic pagans.  The great epic poet Frederick Turner (author of The New World, Genesis, and Apocalypse) called Eþandun "The real Game of Thrones."   Listen to actor-poet-producer Kyle Derek's heroic rendition of this book-length poem!
