Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Alchemy of Paint examines pre-modern artists recipes for a handful of pigments, including lapis lazuli, gold and vermilion. It has become a widely-used text in the undergraduate and postgraduate teaching of the history of ideas, medieval art history and the history of science.Historic pi…gment recipes many of which were reconstructed by the author provide evidence that practicing craftspeople had a detailed grasp of the sophisticated physical and cosmological theories that defined reality in pre-modern Europe. As such, the book is an in-depth, and heavily-referenced, primer for the pre-modern European world-view. For example, the chapter on the purification of lapis lazuli to make ultramarine is a practical example of how so-called Aristotelian four-element theory helped people engage productively with the material world.The first half of the book shows how theories like the four elements, hylomorphism, emanation, etc were reflected in practice in recipes that worked, as well as in recipes that did not work like dragonsblood and mercury blue but were nonetheless faithfully repeated. The second half of the book revisits materials including vermilion and gold to show that widely-recognised multi-levelled meanings were inherent in materials. Physical materials could therefore contribute metaphysical meanings to the mainly religious objects that incorporated them. A fascinating look at how pigments were created, used, and revered in the Middle Ages. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback. Condition: New. The Year takes us on a journey exploring how nature transforms across twelve months, each chapter focusing on a specific month's natural events, from spring's beginning through to winter's end. It opens with an overview of our evolving understanding of time and nature, from ancient astronomy to the pres…ent, and concludes with a chapter on the impact of climate change. Spike Bucklow draws on both modern ecological studies and historical naturalists such as Aristotle, Gilbert White, Thoreau and Aldo Leopold. Poetic reflections from Ovid, Shakespeare, John Clare and William Wordsworth enrich the narrative, giving further insights into nature's changes. Blending modern science with traditional wisdom, The Year provides a positive perspective on ecological, global and personal change, appealing to those interested in ecology, astrology and the history of science.
