Beschreibung

This beautifully illustrated, compact volume traces the profile of 48 European cities in early Reformation times. It transports readers across Europe from Spain to Estonia, from Scotland to Romania, passing through many fascinating cities in the Reformation heartland of this continent.
With finely drawn historical portraits and abundant pictorial material, the articles by different scholars also feature the most prominent Reformers who lived and worked in each city (including six dynamic women).
Supplemented by an illustrated map of Europe, local websites and reading lists, Europa Reformata will serve as a guide for visitors and armchair travelers alike.  By highlighting so many cities and pioneers of the Reformation, it makes a timely and unique contribution to the 500th anniversary of this groundbreaking movement.


Der prächtige und doch handliche Band zeichnet die reformatorischen Profile von etwa vierzig europäischen Städten nach. Die Leser werden von Spanien über Zentraleuropa bis Estland und Finnland geführt, von Schottland und England bis nach Rumänien. Profilierte Texte und reiches Bildmaterial veranschaulichen das Wirken der berühmtesten Reformatoren – sowie der fünf Reformatorinnen – und stellen die Städte mit ihren Bauten und Zeugnissen aus der Reformationszeit vor Augen. Ergänzt durch eine bebilderte Europakarte und die Angabe von kirchlichen Adressen und Tourismusbüros, eignet sich der Band auch als Reiseführer auf den Spuren der Reformation in Europa. An diesem perfekten Geschenk zum 500. Reformationsjubiläum sollte niemand achtlos vorübergehen.
Verfügbar seit: 01.12.2016.
Drucklänge: 512 Seiten.

    The classic treatise on the art of fencing by the seventeenth-century master, in a fresh translation featuring more than forty beautiful illustrations. The Italian fencer Ridolfo Capo Ferro was a legend in his own lifetime. His grace and style were emulated throughout a Europe, and his detailed instruction offers a window into his mastery of swordsmanship. This new translation is faithful to the original text while making it accessible to modern readers. It also includes a new introduction and a revised glossary with many newly translated technical terms. Capo Ferro begins by examining the rapier in detail—its component parts and their suitability—before discussing their actual use. He details the timing and distance needed to control one’s adversary, the importance of quick footwork, and defensive tactics such as guards and parries. He also covers using the rapier with auxiliary weapons such as the dagger, cloak, and shield. Presented by fencing master Jared Kirby, Italian Rapier Combat is both a vital historical record and an essential guide for any student of fencing.

    The legend of the foundation of Rome by Romulus in 753BC accords very well with the earliest defensive walls on the Palatine Hill, made of clay and timber and showing evidence of animal sacrifices. To trace the continual efforts to fortify Rome is to trace the rise and fall of the Roman Empire - through the taking of the city by the Gauls in 390/387, the wars with the Italian states, the threat of Hannibal, the establishment of the Republic, attacks by the northern tribes and eventual division and collapse. By the 6th century AD, General Belisarius was desperately shoring up the walls with marble slabs from altars and gravestones.Before the final dissolution, Emperor Aurelius had reunited the Eastern and Western Empires and earned the title of 'Restitutor orbis', restorer of the world. While doing so he initiated the building of the Aurelian Wall, much of which stands today. Its millions of bricks were placed by thousands of workers and 30 years after it was built it would withstand sieges by two Roman armies under Severus II and Galerius. During the civil wars a rampart walk was added over the interior galleries, fronted by a parapet with merlons, so in effect Rome was converted into an extremely large castle. Patton said that 'fixed fortifications are a monument to man's stupidity.' Perhaps the walls of Rome are the greatest example.

    He shook his head vigorously. “I never thought anything like that.” 
    “Then why were you acting up and being difficult?” 
    “Acting up? I wasn’t acting up or being difficult in any way, Kelly.” 
    “You know, things wouldn’t have gotten to this level if you had just been a good girl and not tried to mess with my head.” 
    He blinked. “A good? A good what?” 
    “A good girl.” 
    “Kelly? Are you calling me a girl?” 
    “Yes, that is how I see you, Matt. I see you as a girl.” 
    “But I am a guy.” 
    “A guy who I see as a girl.” 
    “You see me as…as….as…a girl?” 
    She nodded. “Yes. And do you know why?” 
    “No. No, I don’t.” 
    “You were playing with my mind, teasing me and all. You refused to be a man and just continue with your naughty descriptions about me.” 
    “I didn’t refuse to be a man. I am a man, for goodness sake.”
