Paperback. Condition: NEUF. Technique remontant au Moyen Âge, le pan de bois renoue aujourd'hui avec la modernité et suscite un intérêt croissant. Le matériau bois - et en particulier le chêne, sain, chaleureux, écologique et durable - permet une construction relativement rapide.C'est tout un savoir-faire traditionnel que l'auteur, charpentier professionnel, transmet dans cette nouvelle édition actualisée de son ouvrage. Les particuliers y découvriront les grands principes du pan de bois et ses larges possibilités architecturales. Les professionnels y trouveront quant à eux des éclaircissements techniques pour parfaire leur pratique. Au-delà de la construction de l'ossature elle-même, les phases préliminaires de la conception du projet et le second oeuvre sont également présentés dans ces pages. De nombreuses photos, des croquis et des exemples de réalisations contemporaines au cachet unique illustrent le propos. - Nombre de page(s) : 192 - Poids : 834g - Langue : ANGLAIS - Genre : Enseignement universitaire.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - DESCRIPTION: ADVANCES IN THE HISTORY OF RHETORIC: THE FIRST SIX YEARS is a comprehensive collection of 29 scholarly essays published during the first phase of the journal's history. Research from prominent and developing scholars that was once difficult to acquire is now offered in a coherent and comprehensive collection that is complemented by a detailed index and unified bibliography. This collection covers a range of periods and topics in the history of rhetoric, including Greek and Roman rhetoric, rhetoric and religion, women in the history of rhetoric, rhetoric and science, Renaissance and British rhetorical theory, rhetoric and culture, and the development of American rhetoric and composition. The editors, Richard Leo Enos and David E. Beard, provide a preface and afterword that synthesize the mission and meaning of this work for students and scholars of the history of rhetoric. . . . ABOUT THE EDITORS: Richard Leo Enos is Professor and Holder of the Lillian Radford Chair of Rhetoric & Composition - History of Rhetoric at Texas Christian University. David E. Beard is Assistant Professor of Writing Studies at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. . . . CONTRIBUTORS: John C. Adams, Lois Peters Agnew, Jacqueline Bacon, David E.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Mountain Men were the principal figures of the fur trade era, one of the most interesting, dramatic, and truly significant phases of the history of the American trans-Mississippi West during the first half of the 19th Century. These men were of all types?some were fugitives from law and civilization, others were the best in rugged manhood; some were heroic, some brutal, most were adventurous, and many were picturesque. The typical trapper was a young man?strong hardy and adventure loving. Having succumbed to the lure of the wilderness, his thin veneer of civilization soon rubbed off. In the wilds he had little need for money?barter supplied his simple wants. Possibly short on book-learning, he could read moccasin tracks, beaver sign, and trace of the travois. Memorials to them cover the West. Mountain peaks, passes, rivers and lakes carry their names. Towns and counties have been christened in their honor. Their trails have become our highways?their campfire ashes, our cities. The ninth volume includes the biographies of Joseph Bissonet, Dit Bijou; Lemuel Carpenter; Eustache Carriere; Alexander Carson; Toussaint Charbonneau; Auguste Pierre Chouteau; Pierre Chouteau,Jr.; Ramsay Crooks; Edward De Morin; John B. Didier; James Douglas; Lewis Dutton; Russel Farnham; William Gordon; Richard Grant; Caleb Greenwood; Zacharias Ham; William T. Hamilton; Valentine Johnson (?Rube?) Herring; John Hoback, Jacob Reznor, and Edward Robinson; David E. Jackson; William Kittson; Charles McKay; Robert McKnight; Joseph McLoughlin; Robert Meldrum; David Meriwether; J.B. Moncravie; John Newman; Pierre Didier Papin; Simon Plamondon; Antoine Reynal; Edward Rose; Hubert Rouleau; John F. A. Sanford; Robert Stuart; Joseph Thing; John H. Weber; Peter M. Weiser; Ezekiel Williams; and George C. Yount. For more than a century the history of the American Frontier, particularly the West, has been the speciality of the Arthur H. Clark Company. We publish new books, both interpretive and documentary, in small, high-quality editions for the collector, researcher, and library.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. [DICTIONARY OF ALCHEMY C17 ENGLISH PROVENANCE] FIRST EDITION. 4to. pp. (viii) 471 [i.e., 487] (i). Roman letter, occasional Italic or Gothic. Unusual woodcut device (triangle with alchemical symbols) to t-p, two small woodcuts of stones and gems, woodcut initials and ornaments. Paper of first gathering softened, occasional light browned (poor paper or poorly dried), t-p a bit dusty, a handful of lower or outer edges uncut. A very good copy in contemporary English polished calf, double blind ruled, raised bands, single blind ruled, joint just split at head and foot (lower repaired), spine a bit cracked, tiny worm hole at head. Modern ownership label inside front boards, occasional early underlinings. A very good copy of the first edition of this important alchemical dictionary very full, less mystical and more practical than some later [works] and useful in explaining early terminology (Bolton I, 1041). Martin Ruland the Elder (1569-1611) was a German physician at the court of Rudolf II and an alchemist. Concluded c.1607, his Lexicon alchemiae was only published posthumously, as a very detailed Latin-German dictionary of alchemical terms. Most important are the near synonymous definitions of alchemia , chemia , and, unusually differentiated, chymia ; Ruland was indeed one source of the linguistic error that facilitated their later [conceptual] separation (Newman & Prince, Alchemy , 47). The work provides a wide variety of words for chemical elements and stones, with all their subcategories, and other substances such as alcohol (of which Paracelsus gave his own interpretation as both a powder and a volatile substances). Other words identify alchemical procedures or phases, e.g., mensis philosophicus (the philosophical month), or the time for the completion of putrefaction, coinciding with a lunar cycle. Lexicon was known to C.G. Jung who mentioned it his Psychology and Alchemy to discuss Ruland s understanding of meditatio , an important part of alchemists work (Jung, Psychology , 274). He saw it as an invisible dialogue with one s inner voice , which may involve the invocation of God or one s guardian angel. A very influential alchemical work, of intriguing, though obscure, early English provenance.
