The Clangers memorably spoke in a language played on swannee
whistles. No one expected them to have scripts. But they did.
Within an ancient barn nestled in the heart of the Kent
countryside, Smallfilms founders Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin
created one of the most beloved BBC children's series of the
twentieth century: Clangers. Clangers: The Complete Scripts
1969-1974 is the ultimate compendium of scripts from the original
two series of the show in one lavishly illustrated volume. These
previously unseen scripts sit alongside original writing from
Daniel Postgate - son of the original creator Oliver Postgate -
exploring the inspiration for and lasting cultural impact of the
show, new and historical photographs, Peter's original
illustrations, Oliver's handwritten musical notations and more. The
joyful revelation that the Clangers' often colourful words were
scripted in English brings an exciting new dimension to the
Smallfilms legacy.

A compelling visual anthology of one of photography’s most
popular subjects, reframing our understanding of why we photograph
animals and why photographing them matters to us and the planet.
A visual overview of the history and future of animal photography, Why
We Photograph Animals encourages us to think and rethink the way we
have looked at - and used - animals and to consider our future
relationships with non-human species.
Multi-stranded, this book features the work of more than 100
photographers supported by thematic essays that provide historical
context; interviews with and contributions by leading contemporary
photographers that explore their influences, methods and motivations;
and dazzling visual collections that present the very best animal
photography from its inception to the present day. The result is a book
that will engage those with an interest in wildlife photography and the
natural world, but also those with a concern for the future of the
planet.
Huw Lewis-Jones’s expert authorship and curation celebrates
extraordinary images by brilliant photographers, but also allows us to
understand why people have photographed animals at different points in
history and what it means in the present. Why We Photograph Animals is
deliberately not a conventional history of wildlife photography. It’s
an exploration of the animal in photography. It speaks to our ongoing
desire to look at animals; to understand, misunderstand and appreciate
them; to use and abuse them; to neglect or come to value and protect
them.

This beautiful, fully illustrated book presents a compendium of
artworks throughout history which have been inspired by myth,
fantasy and the unreal. Artists have explored imaginary worlds and
fantastical creatures for centuries, expressing the unreal and
impossible, the mystical and mythical, via the medium of paint. But
what draws them to the imaginary, the uncharted and the unknown? Is
it merely an escape from reality? Or are they seeking a greater
understanding of the human experience, or perhaps the very meaning
of life itself? With myriad styles and methods of expression, what
links artists through the ages? And how have these visual flights
of fancy and imagination changed over the course of time? The Art
of Fantasy is a visual sourcebook of all that is fantastical –
from fine art to illustration, and from surrealists and symbolists
to the creatives working in undefined territories. While the
artists in our history books (Blake, Goya, Dali, Magritte, Ernst)
first brought fantasy art to the galleries, it was the twentieth
century artists who brought it to the masses. It is in this book
that, for the first time, they are united and equally weighted,
presenting a mesmerising and thoughtful curation of the best
fantasy artwork out there. This is an inspiring collection for fans
of myth, magic, fantasy and art history.

A glorious illustrated history of sixteen of the world's greatest
cathedrals, interwoven with the extraordinary stories of the people
who built them. 'An impeccable guide to the golden age of
ecclesiastical architecture' The Times 'Vivid, colourful and
absorbing' Dan Jones 'An epic ode to some of our most beautiful and
beloved buildings' Helen Carr The emergence of the Gothic in
twelfth-century France, an architectural style characterized by
pointed arches, rib vaults, flying buttresses, large windows and
elaborate tracery, triggered an explosion of cathedral-building
across western Europe. It is this remarkable flowering of
ecclesiastical architecture that forms the central core of Emma
Wells's authoritative but accessible study of the golden age of the
cathedral. Prefacing her account with the construction in the sixth
century of the Hagia Sophia, the remarkable Christian cathedral of
the eastern Roman empire, she goes on to chart the construction of
a glittering sequence of iconic structures, including Saint-Denis,
Notre-Dame, Canterbury, Chartres, Salisbury, York Minster and
Florence's Duomo. More than architectural biographies, these are
human stories of triumph and tragedy that take the reader from the
chaotic atmosphere of the mason's yard to the cloisters of power.
Together, they reveal how 1000 years of cathedral-building shaped
modern Europe, and influenced art, culture and society around the
world.
