Extractions: Castle Furnishings has an exceptional selection of books relating to medieval and renaissance topics. Although we primarily cater to medieval re-creators, those of a more academic inclination will also find much here to interest them. Although we carry many books on "practical" subjects, such as cooking, costuming, archery, calligraphy and metalworking, we also carry primary source material (usually translated into English), a great many art books and scholarly books from academic presses (many of these are remainders at quite reasonable prices). We sell only new books, both recently published full-price books and remainders at bargain prices. (Remainders are books that the publishers have sold at a reduction (often substantial), to get rid of excess inventory or when they are taking a book out of print.) By their nature, remainders are usually a finite commodity - if you see one you want, order it now, for when we sell out, chances are high that we will not be able to get any more. If you have seen a book, remaindered or otherwise, here in the past, that is not here now, e-mail us anyway and we will try to get it in for you. Surprise! After letting things slide for far too long, new titles have been added! Check them out

The Medieval Lyric - About Guillaume De Machaut Biography, period art, and score with MOV audio for his Rondolet. Intended to aid the teaching of prerenaissance song. http://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/medst/medieval_lyric/machaut/
Extractions: Remede de Fortune Home Search Site Index About ... Rondelet Guillaume de Machaut and the Remede de Fortune Machaut died in 1377. If he can be called a trouvère, his life followed a quite different pattern from most trouvères. Like Machaut, they benefited from highly placed patronage, but none had the important position within the church hierarchy that Machaut enjoyed at Reims. Machaut had a professional status most of them never attained, and he moved with equal ease in sacred and secular spheres. What especially characterizes Machaut and sets him off from earlier traditions is that he was one of the first writers to whom the words "poet" or "author" in the modern sense could be applied. Machauts works may be divided into the categories he establishes with one exception in his manuscripts: narrative verse, lyric poetry, and musical compositions. Music is usually in its own section in the manuscript, and notated pieces normally appear only there. For example, a lyric poem may be found without music in the lyric poetry section, but if it is to have music, it recurs with its music in the music section. Musical compositions are divisible into secular ( ballades, rondeaux, virelais, lais

This site is dedicated to the almost-lost arts of unarmed combat, dagger fighting and close-quarters sword combat as they were practiced throughout Europe centuries ago. Over the past ten years there has been an explosion of interest in reviving the ancient European martial arts. Many written and illustrated records of the fighting arts of Europe, especially during the Medieval and Renaissance periods, have now become freely available via the Internet. Groups and individuals all over the world are working together to translate and interpret their lessons. Consistently, what has been discovered represents a rich and sophisticated tradition, equal in all respects to the classical Asian martial arts. Just as modern practitioners look back with respect upon the ko-ryu (ancient schools) of Bujutsu, so too may they draw inspiration from the Masters of old Europe.
