Beschreibung

In 'The Cathedral Church of Canterbury,' Hartley Withers presents a meticulous exploration of one of England's most iconic religious edifices. This second edition enhances its literary richness with updated historical insights and a detailed architectural analysis of the Cathedral's evolution, intertwining religious significance with cultural heritage. Withers employs a descriptive narrative style that beautifully captures the grandeur of the Gothic architecture while providing a critical examination of its artistic elements, contextualized within the broader tapestry of English ecclesiastical history. Hartley Withers, an eminent journalist and author, was deeply influenced by his passion for English history and architecture. His background in writing for prestigious publications imbued him with keen observational skills and a profound understanding of the nuances of historical narrative. Withers' work often reflects his fascination with the intersection of faith, art, and society, as seen in his dedication to illuminating the legacy of the Canterbury Cathedral, a focal point of pilgrimage and spirituality in medieval England. This book is an essential read for scholars, historians, and enthusiasts of religious architecture alike. Withers' detailed account not only educates readers about the Cathedral's historical significance but also invites them to appreciate its enduring beauty, making it a vital addition to any literary collection on British heritage.

The movement offered an artistic response to the industrial revolution and the creative vacuum left in its wake, exerting a huge impact on the decorative arts. Art Nouveau spans all forms of expression – including design, painting and architecture – and covers artists such as Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Antoni Gaudí, Jan Toorop, and William Morris.

Dive into the worlds of Philip K. Dick who inspired some of the most famous sci-fi movies of all time!

Philip K. Dick struggled to make a living during his lifetime, but his work has since served as a deep seam of ideas to be mined by filmmakers such as Ridley Scott, Paul Verhoeven, Steven Spielberg, John Woo and Richard Linklater, resulting in some of the most successful and influential SF movies of all time.

For the still-unequalled future world of Blade Runner to the mind-bending A Scanner Darkly, via the blockbusting action/adventure of Total Recall, Paycheck and Minority Report – not to mention the debt of gratitude films like The Matrix and The Truman Show owe to his work – the legacy of Philip K. Dick has revolutionised Hollywood.

50th Anniversary Edition. Paperback.
'In the sharply formal conversations of the stonemen, the bittersweet flavour of provincial Ireland is presented with neither sentiment nor adornment.' —William Trevor, The Guardian
'The men who have gone before us have left us a heritage to be proud of; and we feel our own contribution has been for the good.' —Seamus Murphy, from the preface to Stone Mad.
In 'Stone Mad' Seamus Murphy tells the story of his seven years spent as an apprentice to the stone carving trade, the growing knowledge of the challenges and joys of stone – and of the men who worked it. His artistic feeling for the quality responded to his workmates' reverence for 'the well made thing'. The result is a book of surpassing beauty, full of warmth, humour and profound perception.
