Thistledown

He sought adventure, and found more than he had bargained for

By: Catherine Gilling

ÿThistledownÿis the story of Franois, a wilful and restless young Frenchman who, in the early years of the 16th century, leaves his family home to travel to Scotland in search of adventure. Undaunted by strange warnings along the way, he soon finds himself in grave danger. Only after being hunted down and imprisoned does he discover why his arrival in Scotland has attracted so much attention. It seems he bears an uncanny resemblance to someone very important indeed? Thistledown is an ingenious and thrilling story of adventure, romance and political intrigue.

Corinna

Will a daring bid to save a beloved brother lead to romance ? or disaster?

By: Catherine Gilling

ÿ When the wild teenage escapades of young Corinna Schopenhauer and her brother Max are discovered, their cruel and autocratic father exacts a stern retribution. He sends Corinna to live with a strict aunt and forces Max to join the Austrian army. Soon Corinna learns that her beloved brother has deserted and is on the run. Terrified that he will suffer the ultimate penalty, she sets out on a desperate mission to confuse his pursuers. But Max?s apparent desertion is not all it seems, and when Corinna meets the devilishly handsome Etienne and his friend and fellow officer Lietner, she finds her ingenuity tested and begins to realise that there is much she does not know about her noble family, her past - and herself. A stirring romance set in Austria during the years of the Habsburg Empire.

Business and Community in Medieval England

The Cambridge Hundred Rolls Source Volume

By: Catherine Casson,Mark Casson,John S. Lee,Katie Phillips

One of the most important manuscripts surviving from thirteenth-century England, the corpus of documents known as the Hundred Rolls for Cambridge have been incomplete until the recent discovery of an additional roll. This invaluable volume replaces the previous inaccurate transcription by the record commission of 1818 and provides new translations and additional appendices. Shedding new light on important facets of business activity in thirteenth-century Cambridge, this volume makes a significant contribution to our knowledge of the early phases of capitalism. This unique text will be of interest to anyone working in the fields of economic and business history, entrepreneurship, philanthropy and medieval studies. A research monograph based on recently discovered historical documents, Compassionate Capitalism: Business and Community in Medieval England, by Casson et al, is also now available from Bristol University Press.

Mid-Victorian Poetry, 1860-1879

By: Catherine Reilly

These two volumes list late-and mid-Victorian poets, with brief biographical information and bibliographical details of published works. The major strength of the works is the 'discovery' of very many minor poets and their work, unrecorded elsewhere.

Compassionate Capitalism

Business and Community in Medieval England

By: Catherine Casson,Mark Casson,John S. Lee,Katie Phillips

It may seem like a recent trend, but businesses have been practising compassionate capitalism for nearly a thousand years. Based on the newly discovered historical documents on Cambridge’s sophisticated urban property market during the Commercial Revolution in the thirteenth century, this book explores how successful entrepreneurs employed the wealth they had accumulated to the benefit of the community. Cutting across disciplines, from economic and business history to entrepreneurship, philanthropy and medieval studies, this outstanding volume presents an invaluable contribution to our knowledge of the early phases of capitalism. A companion book, The Cambridge Hundred Rolls Sources Volume, replacing the previous incomplete and inaccurate transcription by the Record Commission of 1818, is also available from Bristol University Press.

British and Irish Paintings in Public Collections

An Index of British and Irish Oil Paintings by Artists Born Before 1870 in Public and Institutional Collections in the United Kingdom and Ireland

By: Christopher Wright,Catherine May Gordon

This book sets a new standard as a work of reference. It covers British and Irish art in public collections from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the nineteenth, and it encompasses nearly 9,000 painters and 90,000 paintings in more than 1,700 separate collections. The book includes as well pictures that are now lost, some as a consequence of the Second World War and others because of de-accessioning, mostly from 1950 to about 1975 when Victorian art was out of fashion. By listing many tens of thousands of previously unpublished works, including around 13,000 which do not yet have any form of attribution, this book becomes a unique and indispensable work of reference, one that will transform the study of British and Irish painting.

Fair Robert: Haunted by a Childhood Tragedy, Driven by His Search for Justice

By: Catherine Gilling

It is 1725, and a young man who has been terribly injured in an accident is taken in and cared for by a decent but impoverished farming family. After Robert Sutton has recovered sufficiently to return to his work as a Government courier, he discovers that this family has suffered a terrible injustice, and is determined to find out why and seek redress and compensation for them in return for their kindness. Along the way he manages to make an enemy of a ruthless and powerful aristocrat, and while he searches for the peace and love which has so eluded him since childhood, he finds himself locked in a fight for personal survival. An intricately-woven tale of suspense, intrigue and love set in rural Georgian England.
