'A good story, embracing character, emotion and drama... refreshing.' THE TIMES'A splendidly sympathetic and sparky portrait... Wittily written and rich in detail' Miranda SeymourCatherine of Braganza - Boring? Plain? Ineffectual? Think again.Charles II's wife was a trouser-wearing tastemaker who introduced tea drinking, popularised card games and championed baroque fashion and art. Her salon culture was infamous for its parties, theatricals and frequent trips to the pub. A Catholic queen in a strictly Anglican country, she was the diplomatic bridge between an unstable Britain and the European mainland, and carefully navigated the treacherous political landscape of Restoration England.In this illuminating portrait historian Sophie Shorland brings Catherine vividly to life for the first time, revealing a woman who defied the limitations imposed upon her to have a profound impact on the world around her.Previously published as The Lost Queen.

Mamluk Administrative Documents from St Catherine's Monastery

Mamluk Administrative Documents from St Catherine's Monastery

nidottu
The library of St Catherine's Monastery in Sinai holds a remarkable series of documents issued over several centuries by the authorities of Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Ottoman Egypt to guarantee the protection of the monks. The decrees issued at the highest level, for example by the Mamluk sultans, have been studied. This present study concentrates on eighteen documents of the Mamluk period, not before edited, which were issued by officials of lower rank. After an introduction, which briefly presents the monastery, its archive and general comments on the diplomatic of the documents, the text of each is established and translated into English with a commentary. The form and style of the documents are compared to those of relevant examples found in the scribal handbooks, including an unpublished work by the son of al-Qalqashandi. These documents not only reinforce the general aims of the sultanian decrees but also deal with some specific issues, the security of the monks and their ability to carry on commercial activity, and demonstrate a secondary level of administration that gave effect to orders from the centre. The original texts are fully reproduced.

Here is a tale of salmon fishing, war, survival and friendship. This is the true story of "The Window at St. Catherine's." ***** "The Waffen-SS officer takes Bill's gun, jams it against his right side just under his rib cage. 'For you the war is over," the Waffen-SS officer says. He pulls the trigger. ***** "'The window at St. Catherine's" is really a grabber.'hanging on every word' is a clichi so I won't use it, but it is a good read-solidly and well told." -William A.
