King John and the Making of Magna Carta - 0 views

  •  
    "Introduction: Here on our first slide, we have John reluctantly ratifying the Magna Carta. He is surrounded by his barons and senior clergymen, and they are all gathered at Runnymede meadow, neutral ground between Windsor Castle and the lands of his barons. But on this image, which dates from centuries after the Magna Carta there is a small historical inaccuracy…King John is holding a quill signing the Magna Carta in this image, when in fact he engrossed the Magna Carta with his seal…Little thing like that may not seem particularly important, but its indicative of how the Magna Carta passed into mythology."

Google Maps Mania: The Domesday Book on Google Maps - 0 views

  •  
    The Domesday Book is the result of a survey carried out in England and parts of Wales in 1086. The book is one of the first and therefore oldest public records in England and therefore serves as a great resource for geographers, genealogists and historians. The Open Domesday Book is the first free online copy of the Domesday Book. It also includes a great Google Maps interface that allows users to search for locations and quickly find references in the Domesday Book to the location and places nearby. If you search for a location you can view on a Google Map the places mentioned in the Book in that area. If you click through on any of the referenced locations you can view an image of the original text and a breakdown of the data recorded in the Domesday Book.

The Effect of the Black Death on Medieval Artists and art - 0 views

  •  
    Thousands of  painters, craftsmen, patrons of the arts perished during the mid 14th century. The heart of the cultural world was torn open.  The horrors of the black death pervaded all aspects of Medieval culture and especially art. The effects were lasting, bringing a somber darkness to visual art, literature, and music. The dreadful trauma of this era instigated the imaginations of writers and painters in worrying and unsettling ways for decades to follow. The insecurity of daily survival created a atmosphere of gloom and doom influencing artist to move away from optimistic themes and turn to images of Hell, Satan and the Grim Reaper. Many painters simply gave up art believing that it was hopeless to try and create beauty in a hellish world.

Roi de France - 0 views

  •  
    Il existe une remarquable galerie de portraits des rois de France sur Gallica : il s'agit, d'après les notices des photos, de médailles du graveur Dassier, mais cette identification est inexacte : cette série gravée avec des portraits de profil des souverains français fut commandée en 1712 par Nicolas de Launay, directeur de la Monnaie de Paris et de la Monnaie des médailles du Louvre. Le médailleur responsable fut l'artiste français Thomas Bernard (1650-1713). Les deux derniers portraits de la série, ceux de Louis XV et Louis XVI, sont dûs à Gatteaux et Duvivier. On peut découvrir la totalité cette galerie de portraits des rois de France (67 photos des rois) dans le diaporama ci-dessous.

The Crusaders Capture Jerusalem, 1099 - 0 views

  • Then our leaders planned to attack the city with machines, in order to enter it and adore the sepulchre of our Saviour. They made two wooden towers and many other machines. . . . Day and night on the fourth and fifth days of the week we vigorously attacked the city on all sides; but before we made our assault the bishops and priests persuaded all by their preaching and exhortation that a procession should be made round Jerusalem to God's honour, faithfully accompanied by prayers, alms and fasting. Early on the sixth day we attacked 19th century illustratorGustave Dore's conceptionof the seige of Jerusalem the city on all sides and could do nothing against it. We were all surprised and alarmed. Then, at the approach of the hour at which our Lord Jesus Christ deigned to undergo the passion of the cross for us, our knights in one of the towers fought bravely, amongst them Duke Godfrey and his brother, Count Eustace.
