Bajo el peso y la persecución de la dictadura franquista, una familia se ve forzada a huir de su amada Cataluña, último bastión republicano de la guerra civil que devastó a España. Asentada en Francia, y luego de sufrir las consecuencias de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, surca esta vez el océano para recalar en una "tierra de gracia" llamada Venezuela, donde decide echar raíces. Sobre una de las colinas de la capital, en una casa grande que está "cerca del cielo", una niña caraqueña va creciendo entre seres entrañables que, a fuerza de nostalgia, han moldeado un micromundo en el que la lengua y la cultura catalanas siempre están presentes, hasta que un buen día descubre de verdad e...

The Oxford Handbook of European Legal History
European law, including both civil law and common law, has gone through several major phases of expansion in the world. European legal history thus also is a history of legal transplants and cultural borrowings, which national legal histories as products of nineteenth-century historicism have until recently largely left unconsidered. The Handbook of European Legal History supplies its readers with an overview of the different phases of European legal history in the light of today's state-of-the-art research, by offering cutting-edge views on research questions currently emerging in international discussions. The Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter both nationally and system...

Trading Paintings and Painters' Materials
The papers in this volume were presented at the CATS international technical art history conference Trading Paintings and Painters' Materials 1550-1800 which explored international markets for paintings and artists' materials in the early modern period and their implications for artistic production. Questions central to these papers include: did preferences exist for artists' materials and paintings from specific geographical areas in particular places and if so why? How did the import of painting materials and artworks impact local production, connoisseurship and art theory? In what conditions were these artists' materials and finished artworks produced and traded in early modern Europe and beyond? The lavishly illustrated contributions in this volume deal with the above questions and shed light on different trades, products, countries and timeframes by combining a large variety of methods and sources, including visual analyses, written sources, pigment analyses and archaeological excavations. This fourth CATS Proceedings will be of interest to scholars and students, museum professionals, curators, conservators, art historians and conservation scientists.
