Synopsis
The Culture Vulture A Guide to Style, Period, and ISM Can you tell pop art from dada? Are baroque and rococo, or existentialism and minimalism, all Greek to you? Would you like to be able to differentiate a Georgian manor house from a Tudor mansion, a Meissen cup from a Delft saucer? Anyone who reads is constantly coming across more or less arcane references to period and style. Even television has gotten into the act. One episode of the former series "Miami Vice" caught a character describing the upscale taste of a burglar: "This guy knows the difference between Baccarat and Lalique." Once museums were largely deserted and wonderfully peaceful places in which to browse. Now you must get a ticket and sometimes stand six deep to see a popular exhibit. Who are all these people? They are the culture vultures, and you, and perhaps the person next to you, are among them. Now The Culture Vulture, the book, brings more than 250 terms to your fingertips. No longer will you be in the dark wondering how a Biedermeier chair relates to a Victorian couch or what the difference is between a Bokhara and a Baluchi rug. Based on scholarly sources, this guide provides a readable and amusing synthesis of all those things you learned in school and forgot, with suggested readings should you care to delve further. The Culture Vulture is for the true dilettante (from the Italian dilettare, meaning to delight, charm), or one who finds pleasure in knowledge. We may not have the time or ability to become scholars, but we want to know more.

- c***r (558)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaMost importantly, the book condition was as specified. Many thanks for that. Also, the book was delivered promptly from the USA to the UK. Also, the price was reasonable for an out-of-print book. However, one point of constructive criticism: the packaging could have been much better, in order to better protect the book in transit. The book was sent in a bubble-wrap mailer only, with no cardboard to give the package greater strength. Thank you very much for any consideration of my feedback.
- 3***6 (128)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThe mail service absolutely ravaged the top binding corner of the book, which really was a disappointment. It’s not your fault as a seller, but please consider that a book in a snug envelope is very unsafe rather than a slightly larger envelope of the same strength. It’s not going to affect your rating. I will say nothing. But please consider this in the future- Post is treated poorly and customer service is poor with mail, so it’s necessary to ship properly, especially if you sell books. :)Pistis Sophia: The Gnostic Tradition of Mary Magdalene, Jesus, and His Disciples (#116542842875)
