Oxbow books, the quarterly temptation

...catalogue came this week!

I was thinking of [livejournal.com profile] zmiya_san when I saw the titles

  • Ancient Textiles, Modern Science

  • Textile Production and Consumption in the Ancient Near East

  • Tools Textiles and Context: Textile Production in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean Bronze Age

  • Ancient Textiles: Production Crafts and Society


For myself, or other scribes:

  • The tres riches heures of Jean duc de Berry (£25, down from £65)

  • Choirs of Angels: painting in Italian Choir books 1300-1500 (not quite my thing but some people swing that way)

  • Italian paintings, 1250-1500 (£19.95, was £74)

  • Women Manuscripts and Identity in Northern Europe 1350-1550 (also pricey but sounds fascinating)


And just cause:

Medieval Hunting, on sale

Rites of Passage: Cultures of Transition (ceremonies! with heralds and stuff! whoo-hoo!), also on sale

Conspectus of Scribal Hands Writing Hands 960-1100 (pricey pretty specialist! but I'm so glad someone cares enough to study it)

Don't forget that the NESAT X book is only £15! So many interesting articles...

Really! I can't find it. I did find the NESAT 7 book for £10 though. They each appear individually priced.

Aaaaah, searching for 'north european textiles' turned it up.

Wow, what a great paper title: The Moment of Inertia: a Parameter for Functional Classification of Worldwide Spindle Whorls from all Periods (André Verhecken)

Well, there goes another £25...

Aww, man! I've done SO WELL at not looking through Oxbow lately. I even deliberately didn't update my address with them when we moved.

*must not click. must not click*

Bah!

But still no sign of the reprint of the 'Everything else' volume of the Archaeology of the Mary Rose.
