Royal and Historic Gloves and Shoes , Trusting To PR E FACE H E early intention with regard to publishing pictures of on e gloves and shoes was a very modest , but having once f f got to work , I ound materials cropped up rom various unexpected quarters , and thus a more ambitious volume is the result . From the outset my aim has been to give accurate and reliable of illustrations royal and historic gloves and shoes , trusting to for of these success rather than upon any literary display , that part the matter having already been efficiently done by several well known authors . e e I Whatev r works may have been written on gloves or sho s , venture to think that hitherto no attempt has been made to illustrate the subjects by such pictures as are contained in this volume . With the exception of the pictures of gloves in the Victoria and Albert Mus eum and those taken from the Stuart Relics exhibited N G L e e e at the ew allery , ondon , every plate has be n sp cially tak n for f e this work rom the xisting article , either by photographs fu when possible or , when more convenient , by care lly made water colour drawings by myself ; in every case absolute accuracy has been attempted . The information contained in the Introductions to the two sub ects e e j , and the d scriptions given to each plate , will , it is hop d , vi PR EFACE prove usefu l and interesting to thos e to whom the work will appeal of the most , viz . to artists , workers embroidery , antiquarians , curators of m . useums , and possibly to the public generally of of The labour gathering together suitable specimens , and ni f i for f d r obtai ng in ormat on the brie esc iptions , has not been very tw o l light , and has extended over some years , whi e as a reward it has brought me into contact with a number of collectors an d others in who have given kindly help my undertaking . To those who I have so willingly lent me their treasures tender my sincere thanks , f of I their names appear at the oot each description . also desire to record my gratefial acknowledgments to those whose names I e giv below , who , among others , have assisted me by advice , intro du c on s ti . , and by other means in producing this volume M A V H .

Ballistic testing was conducted to estimate the velocity at which 50% of 12-bore lead spherical projectiles (V50) would be expected to perforate this clothing system when mounted on gelatine (a tissue simulant used in wound ballistic studies). An estimated six-shot V50 for the clothing system was calculated as 102 m/s. The distance at which the projectile would have decelerated from the muzzle of the weapon to this velocity in free flight was triple the recognised effective range of weapons of the era suggesting that the clothing system would provide limited protection for the wearer. The estimated V50 was also compared with recorded bounce-and-roll data; this suggested that the clothing system could provide some protection to the wearer from ricochets. Finally, potential wounding behind the clothing system was investigated; the results compared favourably with seventeenth century medical writings. Keywords Leather . Linen . Wool .

  • Linguistic and Extralinguistic Challenges in Translation of English Footwear Terminology Into Romanian
    Journal of Social Sciences Vol. 1, no. 2 (2018), pp. 47 - 55 Fascicle Social Science ISSN 2587-3490 Topic Philology ang linguistics eISSN 2587-3504 LINGUISTIC AND EXTRALINGUISTIC CHALLENGES IN TRANSLATION OF ENGLISH FOOTWEAR TERMINOLOGY INTO ROMANIAN Inga Stoianova Free International University of Moldova, 52 Vlaicu Pârcalab Str, Chișinău, Republic of Moldova [email protected] Received: October, 20, 2018 Accepted: November, 22, 2018 Abstract. The footwear terminology represents a great interest and challenge in translation, as world-famous brands, daily competing with each other, create almost monthly new models of footwear, thus, introducing new terminological designations for shoes and requiring their adequate translation using certain translation techniques. A large layer of English footwear specialized vocabulary is rendered into Romanian by calque, description and transcription in the absence of the proper equivalent in the target language. Subsequently, language replenishment with borrowed lexical units takes place, having a positive effect on the language vocabulary volume. However, the abundance of foreign words creates misunderstandings in the specialized communication of representatives of different target audiences. Moreover, in the modern intercultural specialized communication there appeared a tendency to use brands names adapted for the Romanian market instead of words denoting types of shoes. Key words: terminology of accessories and fashion, polysemy, cross-cultural borrowing, eponymic terms, syntactic transformations, terminological equivalent. CZU 811.111:685.3 Introduction Phenomena and concepts of the modern world spread across all countries and continents at tremendous speed, despite state borders, level of development of state economy, languages and cultures. To make the intercultural communication faster and more comfortable languages of international communication are involved, their implication having a gradual character on the basis of modern means of their distribution.

CURATOR OF THE TOWER ARMOURIES PREFACE DO not propose, in this work, to consider the history or develop- I ment of defensive armour, for this has been more or less fully discussed in works which deal with the subject from the historical side of the question. I have rather endeavoured to compile a work which will, in some measure, fill up a gap in the subject, by collecting all the records and references, especially in English documents, which relate to the actual making of armour and the regulations which con- trolled the Armourer and his Craft. At the same time it is impossible to discuss this branch of the subject without overlapping in some details the existing works on Arms and Armour, but such repetition has only been included because it bears directly on the making, selling, or wearing of armour. I have intentionally omitted all reference to the sword and other weapons of offence, for this would have unduly increased the size of the present work, and the subject is of such importance that it deserves a full consideration in a separate volume.

  • Armour & Weapons in the Middle Ages
    & I, Ube 1bome Hnttquarg Series ARMOUR AND WEAPONS IN THE MIDDLE AGES t Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2014 https://archive.org/details/armourweaponsinmashd PREFACE There are outward and visible signs that interest in armour and arms, so far from abating, is steadily growing. When- ever any examples of ancient military equipment appear n in sale-rooms a keen and eager throng of buyers invariably | assembles ; while one has only to note the earnest and ' critical visitors to museums at the present time, and to compare them with the apathetic onlookers of a few years J ago, to realize that the new generation has awakened to j j the lure of a fascinating study. Assuredly where once a single person evinced a taste for studying armour many | now are deeply interested. t The books dealing with the subject are unfortunately ' either obsolete, like the works of Meyrick, Planche, Fos- broke, Stothard, and others who flourished during the last L century, or, if recent, are beyond the means of many would-be students. My own book British and Foreign Arms and Armour is now out of print, while the monographs of I Charles ffoulkes, the Rev. Charles Boutell, and | Mr Mr Starkie Gardner are the only reasonably priced volumes j now obtainable. It seemed, therefore, desirable to issue a small handbook which, while not professing in the least to be comprehensive, would contain sufficient matter to give the young student, y the ' man in the street,' and the large and increasing number of persons who take an intelligent interest in the past just j that broad outline which would enable them to understand more exhaustive tomes upon armour and weapons, and 5 ARMOUR AND WEAPONS possibly also to satisfy those who merely wish to glean sufficient information to enable them to discern inac- curacies in brasses, effigies, etc., where the mind of the medieval workman—at all times a subject of the greatest interest—has led him to introduce features which were not in his originals, or details which he could not possibly have seen.

From Renaissance Chopines to Baroque Heels Bata Shoe Museum, Toronto, Nov 18, 2009–Sep 20, 2010 Reviewed by: Murray Colin A., Toronto The Bata Shoe Museum opened in Toronto in 1995 as the brainchild of Sonja Bata of the Bata Shoe Company. With a collection of 12,000 objects, this unique museum is dedicated exclusively to the history of the shoe and has a history of informative exhibitions on specialized topics, such as the one currently on display, “On A Pedestal: From Renaissance Chopines to Baroque Heels.” Curated by Elizabeth Semmelhack, this exhibition showcases 50 shoes of the sixteenth and seven- teenth centuries, all of which were designed to elevate the stature of the wearer [1]. The chopine, most popular in Spain and Italy in the sixteenth century, is a kind of platform shoe made of wood or cork and covered in leather or textile. The heeled shoe, in which the heel is built up in height independently of the sole (unlike the blocky or columnar soles of the chopine) was worn by men and women and was most popular in Northern Europe in the seventeenth century. Bringing together this many examples of a select type of shoe in one place is no small achievement, as they had to be borrowed from institutions in Italy, Spain, Austria, Sweden, the United States, the UK, and Canada.

THERE are few spots in all England more interesting to the historian and the archaeologist than Sandwich ancl its neighbourhood. On one side is Bichborough, the Roman "gate of Britain, even now magnificent in its extensive remains. On another side are found the monuments of Anglo-Saxon occupation : graves, arms, domestic utensils, and articles of personal adornment. The churches of Ash and Sandwich are rich in the sculptured effigies of medieval knighthood. Sandwich itself is most curious as a landmark of passing centuries, a " Bauta-stone," set up by Time, to record how seaport after seaport has been destroyed by the " aboundance of the light sande driven in by the sea." The narrow, tortuous streets, have clearly not changed their groundplan since the clays when Edward the Third assem- bled at this spot his army of "3000 lances and 10,000 archers, with a fleet of 400 sail," ancl when Edward the Black Prince landed here with the King of France as his prisoner.
