«The horse is an icon of civilization. Man has long depended on the horse in farming, transportation, war, religion, and exploration, and as a consequence we have a wonderfully rich legacy of horses depicted in art. This spectacular book presents the horse in its many roles since its discovery and domestication until the present day. Distinguished author John Baskett begins with the horse in ancient civilizations, including masterpieces from Asia, and then discusses the horse in the Middle Ages, in which the animal was bred for warfare and agriculture and is represented in such scenes as the Bayeaux Tapestry. Renaissance artists, whose interest in horses was as great as that for the human form, are then discussed, evidence of which is shown in the skillful drawings of Leonardo da Vinci. The 17th century brought beautiful examples of naturalism from such masters as Peter Paul Rubens, while George Stubbs became the premier horse painter in 18th-century England. Works by Americans George Catlin and Frederic Remington are also explored, along with exquisite miniatures of natural scenes produced by Persian and Mughal painters from varying periods. A new edition of a long out-of-print gem, «The Horse in Art» brings artistic representation of the horse to life, with additional illustrations, a new chapter on the 20th century, and the inclusion of biographies of the artists featured in the book. With beautiful color reproductions and an accessible text, this book is a unique and indispensable guide to the changing cultural perspectives, artistic styles, and symbolic interpretations associated with its timeless and much-loved subject.»

Creating your dream house — a prospect as exciting as it is daunting. Michael Smith, a favorite among celebrity clientele, reveals the method of his design magic. Offering thoughtful ideas and practical advice, the designer walks the reader through his process, from the gathering of resource material (from magazines and iconic films to something as simple as a shell or a swatch of vintage fabric), expertly pairing simpler and grander elements (or inexpensive with more extravagant objects), perfecting the editing process, to knowing when a room is finished. Detailing the nearly encyclopedic range of styles he culls from to create his signature style, the designer describes recent examples of his work, beginning with a modest and quirkily designed house in Bel Air, Smith redid for himself. Razed, rebuilt, and decorated over the course of five years, the house allowed Smith to experiment and explore ideas freely and the result is a gracious home, as welcoming as it is stylish. In addition to his California residence, twenty other projects are featured, from a New England clapboard to a Malibu villa overlooking the Pacific to a city townhouse. In each, Smith deconstructs the elements which come together to make the ideal home.

«Forget the sprawling suburban mansion with tennis court and swimming pool–from New York to Los Angeles, Miami to Chicago, the visionary home owners featured within these pages have created legendary, livable residences right in the heart of the city. From an artist’s warren of studios in New York City–crowned by a magnificent rooftop garden draped with wisteria arbors–to a 16,000-square-foot château in Chicago with a master bedroom created from a former ballroom, these spaces are truly spectacular. They are also warm, friendly, and original. In short, they are real-life homes–but with many more rooms and amenities than most urban dwellings. «Majestic Metropolitan Living» offers a tour through these unique and beautifully designed interiors. Their visionary owners have reinvented the original spaces, combining apartments or turning former warehouses and other nonresidential buildings into comfortable family homes. They include: • A bright, breezy French-country-style family home in a former Russian embassy that offers views of the San Francisco skyline and an indoor basketball court for the children • A tony penthouse apartment in Miami with more than 4,000 square feet of terrace space and a pool 500 feet in the sky • A former hat factory in downtown Manhattan, now a space-age family home where the three children hold rock-band practice Decorated by some of the top designers and architects today, from Thomas O’Brien to David Easton, Matt Baird to Daniel Romualdez, and with artistic owners like Loree Rodkin, Denise Rich, and Izhar Patkin, these spaces brim with ideas that can be translated for interiors of any size. «Majestic Metropolitan Living» is a visual feast for anyone who has ever dreamed of creating an inventive, beautiful, and personal oasis in the city.»

«Vivienne Westwood Shoes» is the first book to look exclusively at Westwood’s shoe designs from her own historic collection – over 130 classics. With specially commissioned colour photography and accompanying detailed captions that describe the history and design of each shoe, this book is essential reading for all lovers of great shoe design and fans of this great British designer. Through Westwood's shoes we are not only able to retrace her own ascent to the olympus of fashion, but at the same time, we are also able to build on the history of fashion design of the last forty years. Today Westwood’s designs continue to combine a fearless unconformity with a sense of tradition, renowned for her gentle parody of Establishment styles and her use of very British fabrics. Dame Vivienne Westwood is the undisputed Queen of British fashion. Born in Cheshire, England, she is best known as the creator of punk and new wave fashions. In the 1970s she opened the Sex boutique on the King’s Road, London, with Malcolm McLaren. Since then, her design style has been influenced by not only youth and street culture, but also tradition and technique.»

«Social Evolution & History' is a semiannual international journal that serves the needs of all scholars seeking an understanding of how human societies developed in the past and continue to develop in the present. The Journal acts as a forum for debate about key issues and concepts in the field, challenging and re-examining the boundaries of the search. As well as original research articles, the journal includes critical notes and a book review section. Social Evolution & History' a semiannual international journal publishing researches on the basis of its originality, importance, interdisciplinary interest. The Journal's aim is to contribute to the integration of such fields of knowledge as anthropology, history, sociology, and also philosophy and theory of history. Such integration has been lacking until now, though its necessity has long been felt acutely by the academic community. In the current situation of continuously increasing knowledge and professional endeavor, any attempt to introduce new methods of integrating facts with social theory, and to establish interdisciplinary links, would appear to be especially valuable. Этот специальный выпуск журнала Social Evolution & History, посвященный «большой истории» отражает растущий интерес к этой важной теме и разнообразные подходы к ней. Почему важной? Некоторые ученые, например, Дэвид Кристиан, говорят, что «большая история» обеспечивает «контекст для нашей жизни», «замещение мифа о сотворении» и «проникновение в суть и перспективу». Но «большая история» делает гораздо больше: она обеспечивает развитие «большой теории», которая не только систематически объясняет прошлое и настоящее, но и дает разумные прогнозы о будущем. Она обеспечивает взаимодействие между историей, антропологией. социологией, экономикой, психологией, философией и естественными науками.»
