European military Architecture before the Introduction of Firearms. Specialized and systematic dictionary.

Protection and Preservation of Historic Monuments. Specialized and systematic dictionary.

"Glossarium Artis" is probably the most comprehensive work of its kind on the actively used terminology of art and archaeology. Including technical terms from architecture, art and crafts, the ten-volume dictionary comprises some 3,000 terms per volume, each of which is dedicated to a specific topic. The terms are sourced from English, French and German specialist literature.

The individual volumes are structured systematically by subject fields, which also list specific terminology in alphabetical order and provide contextual references. Definitions are given in German; synonyms are included as well. Adequate equivalents or defining translations are supplied for German-language terms. Detailed, schematic depictions and reproductions of well-known works from art and architecture, e.g. the Spanish Steps in Rome as an example of urban steps, serve to illustrate the respective technical term. Each volume is rounded off by an international bibliography as well as indexes in English, French and German -- if required by the topic, in Latin, Greek and Russian, too. As the indexes also provide translations of the individual terms, they double as foreign language dictionaries in their own right.

"Glossarium Artis" can be used as thesaurus, foreign language dictionary and, to some extent, pictorial dictionary, too. As a subject dictionary, however, it is aimed at gathering, defining and systematically organizing relevant terminology.

Timber-frame Construction - Roof Frame - Carpenter's Tools. Specialized and systematic Dictionary

Das vorliegende Bandchen enthalt vier wunderbare, vom Autor selbst erlebte Geschichten aus der Munchner Nachkriegszeit. In unverkennbarer Verbundenheit mit seiner Heimatstadt erzahlt Rudolf Huber von seiner Kindheit inmitten von Zerstorung und Wiederaufbau, und von seiner Familie, die sich durch die Widrigkeiten der Zeit nicht entmutigen lasst.

Der Verfasser dieser Kindheitsgeschichte ist so alt wie das Gemalde des Munchner Stiglmaierplatzes auf der Umschlagseite. Er wird 1935 in Munchen geboren und erlebt die Kriegsjahre in nachster Nahe dieses Platzes, -eingebettet in das schlichte Gemeinschaftsleben eines grossstadtischen Hinterhofs-. Von diesem Mittelpunkt ausgehend weitet sich seine kindliche Erfahrungswelt in konzentrischen Kreisen aus, uberschattet freilich von den Schrecknissen und Gefahren der Bombennachte und vom Trennungsschmerz, den die Kinder-Landverschickung mit sich bringt Aus einer Vielzahl von Kindheitserlebnissen und -beobachtungen entsteht so, gleichsam nebenbei, ein Mosaik aus erinnertem Lebensgefuhl
