Reconstructing the Reality of Images

release date: Jan 01, 2003
Reconstructing the Reality of Images
This examination of realia in Byzantine religious painting provides valuable information on Byzantine dress, household effects and implements, while introducing at the same time an alternative, literally ''objective'', approach to the study of the formative processes of Byzantine art.

The Sisters of Mercy, Popular Politics, and the Growth of the Roman Catholic Community in Hull, 1855-1930

The Sisters of Mercy, Popular Politics, and the Growth of the Roman Catholic Community in Hull, 1855-1930
This discussion, drawing on a wide range of archival material scattered across the British Isles, focuses on one of the earliest English manifestations of the educational enterprise of the Sisters of Mercy, in Hull. Maria McClelland's research demonstrates how, despite adverse circumstances, financial hardship and a spectacular and scandalous court case that hit the headlines in the late 1860s, the Sisters achieved their aims and met with eventual success. The story that unfolds presents, in microcosm, a picture of the challenges and opportunities facing Catholic religious women in Victorian and early-20th-century England.

Old Age in Global Perspective

release date: Jan 01, 1994
Old Age in Global Perspective
"Old Age in Global Perspective examines old age around the world by drawing on data from two major sources: ethnographic (anthropological) field research and cross-national surveys. The authors use biologic, demographic, and sociocultural approaches to amplify our understanding of variations in individuals'' experiences of aging and old age in the modern context of aging populations. Elders'' living arrangements, intergenerational experiences, social relationships, and progression through the life-course are extensively discussed, as are the effects of "modernization" on late life. Conclusions are formulated as brief summary discussions by topic, and twenty-three specific hypotheses are suggested for future research. This volume will be a valuable reference for professionals and advanced students in anthropology, sociology, and gerontology."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Heat Transfer in Radiating and Combusting Systems

release date: Jan 01, 1991
Heat Transfer in Radiating and Combusting Systems
This volume contains the selected papers presented at the EUROTHERM SEMINAR No. 17 - Heat Transfer in Radiating and Combusting Systems held at Cascais from October 8th- 10th, 1990. The EUROTHERM COMMITTEE was created by representatives of the member countries of the European Communities for the organization and coordination of European Scientific events in the field of thermal sciences and their applications. The book is focused on the integration of the heat transfer and combustion. These two subjects have traditionally been considered separate disciplines. In reality, the two are closely interwoven. The central purpose of the book is to generate an effective cross fertilisation of the two at both the fundamental and applied levels. The book reports on: mathematical simulations of heat transfer in reacting systems, new measurements of and measurement techniques for the radiation properties of the intervening medium, and data and theoretical analyses which clarify the physical nature of the complex interactions between the radiation/convection heat transfer processes and the combustion and turbulence of real reacting flows.
