Farrer Katharine
The Cretan Counterfeit
Lyons Colorado U.S.A.: Rue Morgue Press 2004. 1st US edition. A fine unread copy of the trade paperback. When Sir Alban found a Minoan ring where a Minoan ring shouldn't be found it made his reputation. It may also have cost him his life. Inspector Richard Ringwood and his new wife Clare a fellow Oxford graduate enjoy reading between the lines of the obituaries in the London Times over breakfast. They were especially delighted to discover a particularly nasty notice. Sir Alban Worrall's obituary contained all the usual flattering words but it's pretty obvious that the author thought the dearly departed had bought rather than earned his reputation as an archaeologist. Shortly afterwards a young woman who had come to the dead man's defense in an impassioned letter to the Times is nearly killed in a knife attack. Ringwood's investigation moves from the streets of London to the halls of the British Museum before it eventually winds its way back to a trench in Corfu and a most surprising murderer. The author and her husband Austin Farrer described by the Archbishop of Canterbury as "possibly the greatest Anglican mind of the twentieth century" lived in Oxford where Austin was a Fellow at Trinity College and later Warden of Keble College. The Farrers were intimate friends to CS. Lewis Charles Williams J.R.R. Tolkien. and Dorothy L. Sayers a group collectively known as the Inklings. The Cretan Counterfeit was first published in England in 1954 and makes its first appearance in the U.S. in this edition. First US Edition. Pictorial Wrappers. Fine. Trade Paperback.

ROMAN ART
Weidenfeld & Nicholson. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1972. Hardcover. 0297003887 . Tiny chip to base of spine. ; 200 pages; Roman art emerged from an intermingling of Italo-Etruscan and Greek-Hellenistic forms. It was the conservative art of warriors in which the subject was far more important than the form. It is not surprising therefore that the different phases of Roman art are named after political epochs individual rulers and dynasties. The buildings themselves were not based on the Greek laws of proportion; they no longer respected the landscape but dominated it and Roman architecture would be the source for much that was done in later centuries. In this comprehensive survey covering the period 5000 BC-AD 305 the author examines the influences innovations aims and achievements of Roman artists in all media and draws on a wide range of examples from Rome itself as well as the empire - Pompeii the Colosseum the Pantheon the aqueduct in Tarragona Hadrian's villa at Tivoli and Trajan's column. .
