‎Many of our oldest and best-loved stories are about killing guests and betraying hosts. Hospitality is celebrated, in medieval texts and in medieval studies, as a way of binding individuals together and strengthening social cohesion, but both the practice and narration of hospitality was shot through with ambiguity and ambivalence. This volume shifts the scholarly gaze from the high table ? where kings, queens, and honoured guests are graciously served by skilled servants ? to the shadowy corners of the hall, the places where gossip and complaint are exchanged, where outlaws hide under the guise of hospitality, where hostages and troublesome strangers are benched, where the light from the hall-fire reflects on drawn blades: prompting difficult reflections on the processes of extraction and predation that provided the material foundations for the feast. The chapters in Guests, Strangers, Aliens, Enemies range from Silk Road caravanserais in Armenia and crusader relations in the Latin East, through ambassadorial and papal receptions in the Mediterranean, treatment of merchants and the poor in Scandinavia, elite feasts in Latin Europe, to hosting of outlaws and hostages in Eurasia. The authors explore ambiguities of hospitality in the Middle Ages through a wide range of sources and methodological approaches.

‎Wolff, Joseph.‎

‎Narrative of a Mission to Bokhara, in the Years 1843-1856. To Ascertain the Fate of Colonel Stoddart and Captain Conolly. Edinburgh & London, William Blackwood & Sons, 1848.‎

‎8vo. XXV, (1), 429, (1) pp. Publisher's original cloth. Fifth edition. The German-born oriental scholar and traveller Wolff (1795-1862), who knew both Arabia and Muslim Asia, brought the first authentic account of the fate of the two officers Stoddart and Conolly to England (having been commissioned to do so by a committee headed by Captain John Grover): they had been beheaded at the command of the Emir of Bukhara (Usbekistan), Nasrullah Khan, in 1842. Their executioner had been instructed to dispose of Wolff in the same way, but he escaped after a series of remarkable adventures. "A Jew who converted to Christianity, he spent much of his life attempting to persuade other Jews to follow the same course. His travels were often beset by extraordinary difficulties, but his enthusiasm and vitality enabled him even to endure, after rescue from slavery in Khorassan, a walk of six hundred miles through Bokhara to Kabul, having been robbed of everything including his clothing" (Blackmer). Between 1845 and 1852 his account of his mission went through seven editions. - Inscribed by the author in English and Arabic to the Victorian historical writer Agnes Strickland (1796-1874): "To Miss Agnes Strickland / from her admiring / friend Joseph Wolff" (dated May 14, 1849). Wilson 246. OCLC 1823836. Cf. Blackmer 1833 (1845, first American ed.).‎

‎Friendship album lasting 64 years and tracing a woman's life from Kentucky to Colorado‎

‎Kentucky Wisconsin Illinois Kansas Minnesota Ohio Wyoming Michigan South Dakota Colorado 1924. Red leather sheep over card ornately stamped in gilt. Album measures 8 x 9.75 inches and is comprised of 108 manuscript pages in a variety of hands with multiple entries per page. Also includes two pasted-in newspaper clippings and a series of loosely inserted ephemera two obituary clippings for the book's owner five calling cards a church bulletin a gown ad an envelope with a death notice of a friend and a car rental flyer from Oklahoma. Tracing the life of Laura Nethers nee Earl from her girlhood and marriage to her old age. Obituaries and census records show that Laura was a resident of Colorado Springs for 56 years following her family's move from the South through the Western US.<br/><br/>The inscription to the first page of the album reveals it to be a gift: "1860. A Christmas gift from father. Covington KY." Above this is the ownership stamp of Laura L. Earl. Little did Laura know the album would follow her across 64 years and to a variety of states documenting her relationships and major moments in her life. For researchers it is an opportunity to trace a woman's development from one century to the next across multiple states in the South and West as she grew into a teacher wife and woman's club activist. Growing up in Kentucky Laura's family moved West. Entries show that she and her father lived awhile in Minnesota and she became a teacher in Wisconsin before marrying and settling in Colorado Springs. Entries come from family pastors students neighbors and friends. Many entries show women's bonds across large stretches of space and together they show what a mobile lifestyle women were increasingly living. No longer confined so a small radius or single homestead they were maintaining relationships and making friends across the miles. <br/><br/>Some early entries like that of Celia E. Hay Illinois 1878 are traditional in nature: "Over our hearts and into our lives shadows may sometimes fall But the sunshine is never wholly dead And heaven is shadowless overhead And God is over all." Students politely thank her for her work and hope they made an impact too: "I ever remain your true friend James U. Cobb. To Miss Laura Earl much Respected Teacher Ellensboro Wisconsin Feb 25 1872." People write poetic verses on friendship or her new marriage throughout.<br/><br/>Yet more often entries are personal. In 1879 Laura's father leaves her a humorous message that "It is ten o'clock and your sixty-one year old father expects a long trip to the Injun Reservation two hundred miles north in the morning.So you see I cannot write any tonight." Elva Walker writes from Colorado in 1885 "We will ever remember our camping trip.and going in a cave" and John Dietrich writes of the same trip "Did it rain while we were camping! I hope we will meet again soon." In August 1919 a friend Emma Eggleston writes an original piece about their recent travel titled Pike's Peak by Auto which begins "19 and 19 was a year to remember from the last of July to the last of September" and which documents in 36 verses the landscapes they passed and the friendship they strengthened while driving. Moments like these are a reminder of changing times -- of early attitudes toward indigenous tribes or of women's freedom as suffrage approached. <br/><br/>A charter member of the Colorado Women's Club and a participant in Frances Willard's Women's Christian Temperance Union according to her obituary Laura's friendship album is a rich space for researchers to trace her movements through communities in the West for genealogists to study the families and lives of contributors and for historians to track which entries come from other educated women and activists. The present is one of the best we've seen. unknown books‎
