EVE BTBATSFORD, 94 HIGH HOLBORN LONDON I907 Bctlkr & Tanner, The Selwood Printing ^Vobks, Frome, and London. 1GC0718 P r e fa c e THE intention of this book is to assist the workers in the many arts that are concerned with heraldry, in varying degrees, by putting before them as simply as possible the essential principles of heraldic art. In this way it is hoped to contribute to the improve- ment in the treatment of heraldry that is already evident, as a result of the renewed recognition of its ornamental and historic importance, but which still leaves so much to be desired. It is hoped that not only artists but also those who are, or may become, interested in this attractive subject in other ways, will find herein some helpful information and direction. So that the work of the artist and the judgment and appreciation of the public may alike be furthered by a knowledge of the factors that go to make up heraldic design and of the technique of various methods of carrying it into execution. To this end the illustrations have been selected from a wide range of subjects and concise descriptions of the various processes have been included. And although the scope of the book cannot include all the methods of applying heraldry, in Bookbinding, Pottery and Tiles for example, the principles that are set forth will serve ;; VI PREFACE all designers who properly consider the capabilities and limitations of their materials.

  • MEDALLIC HISTORY of RELIGIOUS and RACIAL INTOLERANCE: MEDALS AS INSTRUMENTS for PROMOTING BIGOTRY by Benjamin Weiss
    MEDALLIC HISTORY OF RELIGIOUS AND RACIAL INTOLERANCE: MEDALS AS INSTRUMENTS FOR PROMOTING BIGOTRY by Benjamin Weiss ABSTRACT Prejudices of all types represent a profound failure and blight on our society. These prejudices manifest themselves in individuals and nations having policies which, overtly or covertly, subtly or blatantly, discriminate on the basis of religion, race, nationality, gender, age or sexual orientation--- religious and racial prejudices being among the most commonly encountered. Even a cursory examination of the history of religious bigotry amply demonstrates the frequent, prevalent and globally widespread nature of these practices. The consequences on individuals range from the relatively inconsequential, such as slurs and insults, to the devastating, including confiscation of property, expulsion from countries and mass slaughter. Religious and racial intolerance has also been responsible for a multitude of regional conflicts and global wars in the past as well as in the present, as evidenced by a mere perusal of current events. This article traces the repercussions of religious and racial intolerance through the eyes of historical and commemorative medals. As such, it attempts to be a Medallic History of Religious and Racial Intolerance. The discourse reviews briefly the history of this enormous field, concentrating on those countries and events where medals exist that exemplify the consequences of religious and racial prejudice. The coverage of the subject must, of necessity, be superficial, as the topic is so wide. Nevertheless, a group of medals has been selected that serve to illustrate, through imagery and wonderful art, that medals not only have provided a window through which to view historical events surrounding bigotry but also have been issued to actually promote religious and racial hatred.

  • The Gospel in the Stars
    THE GOSPEL IN THE STARS by JOSEPH. A. SEISS Originally published as The Gospel in the Stars: or, Primeval Astronomy 1882 E. Claxton & Company, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania PREFACE IT may seem adventurous to propose to read the Gospel of Christ from what Herschel calls " those uncouth figures and outlines of men and monsters usually scribbled over celestial globes and maps." So it once would have seemed to the writer. But a just estimate of the case cannot be formed without a close survey of what these figures are, what relations they bear to each other, whence they originated, and what meaning was attached to them by the most ancient peoples from whom they have been transmitted to us. Such a survey the author of this volume has endeavored to make. From an extended induction he has also reached conclusions which lead him to think he may do good service by giving publicity to the results of his examinations. The current explanations of the origin and meaning of the constellations certainly are not such as should satisfy those in search of positive truth. Herschel characterizes them as " puerile and absurd." They are nowhere to be found outside of Greece and Rome and modern works which have thence derived them. They are part of the staple in the theories and arguments of infidelity. The more ancient and more knowing peoples never so explained these celestial signs, but uniformly regarded them as divine in source and sacred in significance. Even Greece and Rome never could separate them from their worship, their gods, and their hopes of futurity, whilst some of their best authors devoutly referred to them as divine.

Heraldry is the science which teaches how to blazon or describe in proper terms armorial bearings and their accessories. Many volumes have been written on the origin of Heraldry and even on the antiquity of separate charges contained in an escutcheon : it would be filling the pages of an elementary work on Heraldry to little purpose to enter upon an inquiry as to the exact pe- riod of the introduction of an art that has existed in some degree in all countries whose inhabitants have emerged from barbarism to civilization. In all ages men have made use of figures of living creatures, trees, flowers, and inanimate objects, as symbolical signs to distinguish themselves in war, or denote the bravery and courage of their chief or nation. The allegorical designs emblazoned on the standards, shields, and armour of the Greeks and Romans — the White Horse of the Saxons, the Raven of the Danes, B BLANUAL OF HERALDRY. and the Lion of the Normans_, may all be termed heraldic devices ; but according to the opinions of Camden^ Spelman, and other high authorities, here- ditary arms of families were first introduced at the commencement of the twelfth century.

Heraldry, and the livery buttons springing from it, is a complex topic and one worthy of in-­depth study. Deb Hanson and Tom Skovronsky have certainly done just that. Deb was fortunate to have been mentored by John Horn Pierced silver Citrine in silver Mourning finish Lacquer engraved gilt monogram (represents time) McKinnon crest hound on chapeau Whiteford, a valued resource now lost to the society. She has given presentations on the subject of Livery at several state shows, and will do so again at this year’s National Deluxe Livery Buttons Convention on Wednesday at 5:30 pm. Tom is the author of an excellent book, Livery Buttons: Identification, Classification and Heraldry,for those of you who would like to go deeper into the subject. Their knowledge and efforts can now benefit all of us. The newest edition of the classification (2009–2010) includes a reorganization of the existing livery classes as well as the addition of a couple of new ones. Livery fancy border Gemstone in gold, viscount monogram assorted is now organized into three major categories: Achievements, Crests and Non-­crest liveries. Glossary information is expanded accordingly. The always popular Crests, typically the pictorial ones, are categorized in a manner which puts them in sync with the pictorial content in the rest of the classification.
