The Brummer Collection of Medieval Art
The Brummer Collection of Medieval Art in the Duke University Museum of Art is one of the finest to be found in any American university museum. It is remarkable for its breadth and the variety of objects represented, with works varying in scale from monumental stone pieces to small-scale objects in wood, ivory, or metal, and ranging from the seventh to eighth centuries through the sixteenth century. This fine catalog makes available for the first time this rich but little-known collection. Five studies by leading art scholars focus on key works in the collection and contribute to a new understanding of the origins of many of the pieces. Two introductory essays comment on the character of the collection as a whole, its acquisition by Duke University, and its conservation. Finally, the catalog section discusses the more important pieces in the collection and is followed by a checklist of entries and smaller photographs of all other objects. Contributors. Ilene H. Forsyth, Jean M. French, Dorothy F. Glass, Dieter Kimpel, Jill Meredith, Linda S. Roundhill

Catalogue of the Sculpture in the Dumbarton Oaks Collection from the Ptolemaic Period to the Renaissance
These sculptures reflect the Blisses' wide-ranging tastes and extraordinary connoisseurship. About a quarter are Greco-Roman; nearly two-thirds of the rest are Late Antique, mostly limestone carvings from Early Byzantine Egypt. Sculpture from the Middle Byzantine period is very rare, making the four pieces in this collection especially significant.

La sociale en Amérique
This work identifies the French-speaking individuals who were labor activists in the United States from 1848-1922, and who were inspired by the European labor unions of their time, mainly the International Workingmen's Association. These persons had a different background in education, politics, economics and social standing.
Kommunikation und Konfliktaustragung
HauptbeschreibungPolitische Herrschafts- und Verfassungssysteme sind seit jeher auf bestimmte Praktiken der Kommunikation und Konfliktaustragung angewiesen, um sich selbst zu legitimieren und die Machtansprüche der in ihnen wirkenden Interessenparteien auszubalancieren. Diese Kommunikations- und Konfliktaustragungsmechanismen berühren die kulturelle Relevanz von politischer Herrschaft. Ob in der Vormoderne oder in der Moderne, politische Herrschaft kommt nicht ohne die Ausbildung einer ihr entsprechenden "Verfassungskultur" aus. Als System der kulturellen Prägung politischer Gemeinwesen auf de.
Banished
This book aims to study the departure and reception of refugees in 19th-century Europe, from the Congress of Vienna to the 1870-1880s. Through eight chapters, it draws on a transnational approach to analyze migratory movements across European borders. The book reviews the chronology of exile and shows how European states welcomed, selected, and expelled refugees. In addition to presenting the point of view of nation-states, it reflects the experience of those migrating. The book addresses departure into exile, captured through the material circumstances of crossing borders in the 19th century, and examines the emergence of new ways to pursue political commitments from abroad. The outcasts ar...
