Les achats comprennent une adhésion à l'essai gratuite au club de livres de l'éditeur, dans lequel vous pouvez choisir parmi plus d'un million d'ouvrages, sans frais. Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Musée National Du Moyen Âge, Salles Des Croisades, the Cloisters, Institut Árni Magnússon. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Les salles des Croisades du château de Versailles créées par Louis-Philippe en 1843 comportent les armoiries et noms des principaux chefs croisés. La redécouverte et l'étude du Moyen Âge, dès avant 1789, s'amplifient au lendemain de la Révolution française. Certes la création du Musée des monuments français date de 1794, mais c'est en 1831 que Victor Hugo publie Notre-Dame de Paris. C'est sous la Restauration qu'est créée l'École des chartes (1821) et que le musée du Louvre acquiert deux importantes collections d'objets médiévaux. De son côté, le musée national du Moyen Âge, dans l'hôtel de Cluny est inauguré en 1844. Et puis, Viollet-le-Duc restaure les sites médiévaux majeurs pendant le Second Empire. Mais en réalité, c'est tout un peuple ou tout au moins ses élites les plus cultivées qui se passionnent pour l'histoire et l'archéologie. Cet intérêt pour le Moyen Âge se retrouve aussi chez nos voisins anglo-saxons et fait le succès du roman Ivanhoé, et dans l'Allemagne pré-romantique et romantique. Les Things, ces assemblées de compagnons sous l'ancien régime et l'antiquité germanique se retrouvent même dans les écrits des premiers socialistes. La galerie des Batailles et les Salles des croisades ne sont pas créées par Louis-Philippe dans le but de permettre au peuple de retrouver d'hypothétiques libertés germaniques ou gauloises, mais de réconcilier les Français après les excès de certains révolutionnaires ou royalistes dans les décennies précédentes. Ce que le roi Louis-Philippe a fait à Versailles est bien, commente Victor Hugo. Avoir accompli cette œuvre, c'est avoir ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The salakot is a traditional wide-brimmed hat in the Philippines. It is usually made of either rattan or reeds, and may be regarded as the Filipino counterpart of the conical straw hat found in East Asian and Southeast Asian countries. An ancient tradition recounts that the first Malay settlers in the archipelago purchased the valleys and plains of the Island of Panay in the Philippines from the native Aetas in exchange of a golden salakot and a very long pearl necklace called manangyad, which touched the ground when worn by the wife of the Aeta chieftain. ...

Chapters: Steingrímur Hermannsson, Halldór Ásgrímsson, Steingrímur J. Sigfússon, Árni Mathiesen, Þorsteinn Pálsson, Einar Kristinn Guðfinnsson. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 26. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Steingrímur Hermannsson (pronounced ) (22 June 1928 - 1 February 2010) was Prime Minister of Iceland. Steingrímur's father was Hermann Jónasson, another former Prime Minister. Being the son a prominent official, Steingrímur enjoyed a relatively care-free upbringing in a country stricken by the Great Depression. As a young boy he had an exceptional proximity to Iceland's World War II politics, overhearing state affairs being discussed in his father's living room. Not wanting to follow his father's footsteps into politics, Steingrímur went to the U.S. in 1948, studying engineering in Chicago, and later at Caltech. After returning to his native country and experiencing troubles both in his private life and business career, he eventually entered politics in the 1960s. He was elected to the Althing (Icelandic Parliament) for the Progressive Party in 1971. He became party chairman in 1979. Steingrímur served as Prime Minister from 1983 to 1987 and again from 1988 to 1991. He also served for a time as Minister of Justice, Ecclesiastical Affairs and Agriculture (197879), Minister of Fisheries and Communications (198083) and Minister of Foreign Affairs (198788). He was chairman of the Progressive Party from 1979 to 1994. After that he was manager of the Central Bank of Iceland until his retirement in 1998. His legacy as Prime Minister is somewhat controversial, with many considering him the last representative of "the old system" in Icelandic politics, which was allegedly plagued by political favoritism and corruption. That system was gradually dismantled by the successive governm...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=885857 ... Read more

Product Description
It should be noted that I'm the only seller on Amazon that's has these authentic Arnis magazines available. The fighting arts and artists of the world owe the Filipino people a great thanks. It has been they who have been the caretakers of the blade arts for many years now. They are preserving the knowledge for future generations. It has been through their undying efforts that the core principles of these methods have remained alive. Being a race of master survivors, the Filipinos recognized the benefit of learning the Spanish methods of weapons use. In particular they became adept at fighting with the "long and short" weapons. (IE: The Sword and Dagger, Stick and Dagger, etc.). ... Read more

Extrait : Arnaldur Indriðason, né le 28 janvier 1961 à Reykjavík, est un écrivain islandais. Arnaldur Indriðason est diplômé en Histoire de l'Université d'Islande en 1996. Journaliste au Morgunblaðið en 1981-1982, il devient scénariste indépendant. De 1986 à 2001, il travaille comme critique de films pour le Morgunblaðið. Aujourd'hui, il est l'auteur de six romans policiers - dont plusieurs sont des best-sellers. Il vit à Reykjavik avec sa femme et ses trois enfants et est le fils de l'écrivain Indriði G. Þorsteinsson. Les deux auteurs ayant fortement influencé Arnaldur Indriðason sont Maj Sjöwall et Per Wahlöö, deux écrivains suédois qui ont imaginé, dans les années 1960, les aventures de l'inspecteur Martin Beck . Arnaldur Indriðason publie son premier livre, Synir duftsins (littéralement "Fils de poussière", inédit en français) en 1997. Cette publication marque pour certains, comme Harlan Coben, le départ d'une nouvelle vague islandaise de fiction criminelle. Aux côtés de Arni Thorarinsson, également auteur de polar islandais, Arnaldur déclare qu' Les principales nouvelles d'Arnaldur Indriðason mettent en scène la même équipe de détectives, dont l'abrupt Erlendur torturé par la disparition de son frère alors qu'il n'était qu'un enfant et tourmenté par sa fille "junkie". Ce sont ces souffrances et les conditions qui les ont engendrées qui intéressent particulièrement Arnaldur car Ses romans sont régulièrement des prétextes à un voyage dans le passé, tel "L'Homme du lac", où l'enquêteur Erlundur trouve un squelette vieux de 40 ans faisant appel au passé communiste d'une partie des i...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...

Kapitel: Eskrima, Filipino Martial Arts, Arnis, Pencak Silat, Pekiti-Tirsia Kali, Südostasienspiele 2005/arnis, Kali Sikaran, Yaw-Yan, Pangamut, Kuntao, Panantukan, Dumog. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Eskrima, Arnis and Kali refer to a class of Filipino martial arts that emphasize weapon-based fighting with sticks, blades and improvised weapons. Although training starts with weapons, empty hand techniques, trapping and limb destruction are also a core part of these arts as the weapon is merely an extension of the body. Eskrima and Arnis are the most common among the many names often used in the Philippines today to refer to these arts. The teaching of the basic skills in eskrima are traditionally simplified. With limited time to teach intricate moves, only techniques that were proven effective in battle and could easily be taught en masse were used. This allowed villagers, generally not professional soldiers, a measure of protection against other villages, as well as foreign invaders. This philosophy of simplicity is still used today and is the underlying base of eskrima. Because of this approach, eskrima and the Filipino martial arts in general are often mistakenly considered to be "simple". However, this refers only to its systematization, not effectiveness. To the contrary, beyond the basic skills lies a very complex structure and a refined skillset that takes years to master. For the purpose of simplification, Eskrima shall be used to refer to the interchangeable terms of Arnis and Kali for the rest of the article. For all intents and purposes, eskrima, arnis and kali all refer to the same family of Filipino weapon-based martial arts. In Luzon they may go by the name of arnis, arnis de mano, sinawali, pagkalikali, panandata (usage of weapons), didya, kabaroan (blade usage) and kaliradman. In the Visayas and Mindanao, these martial arts have also been referred to as kali, kalirongan. Kuntaw and silat are separat...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ... Read more
