1 Musical Instruments in Western European Art an Iconographical 1 Musical Instruments in Western European Art An Iconographical Guide The Frame Drum – 15th - 16th century Status of August 2004 PLEASE DO NOT SEND ADDITIONAL ENTRIES. The entries published here are only the ones for which I have somewhat respectable bibliographic entries at this time. I have much more information for these and for additional entries which will be added as I get around to it. I didn't set out to compile a bibliography -- or, more properly, an iconography. This list is just what happens to be lying about the house. It is very much a work in progress, but if I waited until everything was perfect, it would never appear. However, I would appreciate corrections -- wrong page references, for example. Send corrections to Mary Rasmussen Music Department University of New Hampshire Durham NH 03824 (USA) I am singularly error-prone, alas, and I am sure that there are numerous mistakes in this list. I am quit capable of looking at page 257 and writing down 277, and I seem to have difficulty telling right from left. Sorry. The purpose of this iconography is to answer the question "Where can I find an illustration of ...?" I have included only works of art for which there is a published reproduction (plus some that are in the Visual Collection, Fine Arts Library, Harvard University and a few in the Bild-Archiv Photo Marburg). Many thanks to Isabel Gray and the UHN Music Department for putting this index on their web page. ** [GB] BRITISH ARTISTS XIII: Scenes of Everyday Life -- Outdoor Naval Scenes: [Pa private collection] Anon.

It contains interviews with him published in the Chicago Tribune on December 29, 1935, and January 5, 1936, and now supplemented by Mr. Bennett with a record of other visits father had with one whom he fondly calls "My Young Comrade." With the permission of the Tribune these understanding and sympathetic interviews regarding events covering almost a century are published in book form by the family as a greeting to father and a remembrance for his friends on this happy birthday anniversary. Florence Fifer Bohrer. Bloomington, Illinois, October 28, 1936: The ninety-sixth birthday of Joseph W. Fifer. Two and a half centuries ago the family noiv repre- sented by Illinois' "Grand old man" went from Ger- many to America in the history-making emigration which colonized on the basis of good morals and sound economics the province of Pennsylvania. The leader of the German pioneers who were to join with William Penn in the building of a state was the wise and righteous young lawyer, Francis Daniel Pastorius, whom Whittier consecrates in his beautiful poem. "The Pennsylvania Pilgrim." In the eighteenth century the Fifers moved ivest- ward into the Shenandoah valley of Virginia and built many little grist mills from Harper s Ferry on down to Staunton, where Joseph Wilson Fifer was born in 1840.

WITH A MAP OF GERMANY AT THE TIME OF THE REFORMATION <& LONDON SWAN SONNENSCHEIN & CO., LIM. NEW YORK: THE MACMILLAN CO. 1899 54 ABERDEEN UNIVERSITY PRESS PREFACE. IN presenting a general view of the incidents of the so-called Peasants War of 1525, the historian encounters more than one difficulty peculiar to the subject. He has, in the first place, a special trouble in preserving the true proportion in his narrative. Now, proportion is always the crux in historical work, but here, in describing a more or less spontaneous movement over a wide area, in which movement there are hundreds of differ-^/ ent centres with each its own story to tell, it is indeed hard to know at times what to include and what to leave out. True, the essential ^ similarity in the origin and course of events renders a recapitulation of the different local risings unnecessary and indeed embarrassing for readers whose aim is to obtain a general notion. But the author always runs the risk of being waylaid by some critic in ambush, who will accuse him of omitting details that should have been recorded.
