PRODUCTION ET DIFFUSION DU VERRE
ANTIQUE
COLLECTIF, SOUS LA DIRECTION DE DANIELE FOY
Le verre, un des premiers matériaux de synthèse
de l'Humanité, est utilisé en abondance à
l'époque romaine pour la production de vaisselles diverses:
coupes, flacons, urnes cinéraires… Le long chemin
du verre, de la matière première qu'est le sable
des déserts du Levant en passant par sa production dans
des ateliers du Proche-Orient jusqu'à sa transformation
en produits manufacturés en Occident, est retracé
dans cet ouvrage. Les principaux spécialistes du sujet
se basent sur les données archéologiques les plus
récentes: la fouille sous-marine d'une épave découverte
au large de la Provence, remplie de blocs de verre importés
d'Orient, les fouilles d'ateliers secondaires gaulois, qui révèlent
la richesse et la multiplicité des techniques et des
produits en usage à cette époque… Ouvrage
édité à l'occasion de l'exposition «Cœur
de verre», présentée au Musée Gallo-romain
de Lyon-Fourvière du 19 décembre 2003 au 25 avril
2004. |

| THE JACOBITES AND THEIR DRINKING
GLASSES |
 |
GEOFFREY B. SEDDON
If we in Britain believe in hereditary monarchy, and presumably
we do since our monarch still succeeds to the throne according
to strict hereditary principles, then it should not be difficult
to understand how the later Stuarts believed they had been cheated
out of their inheritance. It is small wonder they were prepared
to resort to armed rebellion in attempts to regain what they
felt was theirs by right. Their supporters, the Jacobites, varied
from committed zealots risking all for the 'cause' to fireside
club-goers who preferred to raise engraved wine glasses to toast
the 'king over the Water' rather than raise their swords. The
drinking glasses they used have a story to tell which adds to
our knowledge of those turbulent times. Much has been written
about Jacobite history and about the principal characters involved
but a book relating the history to the Jacobite glasses is long
overdue. Here is such a book. It tells of the secret Jacobite
societies and will appeal to anyone interested in the history
of the period. Destined to become the standard reference work
on its subject it will be essential reading for any student
of eighteenth century English glass. This is the most detailed
study of Jacobite glass ever undertaken and besides providing
complete coverage of the subject, for the very first time, supplies
a means of authenticating the genuine engravings in a field
known to be infested with fakes. |

The most fragile and transparent of materials, glass can be
of little or great value depending upon its quality and the
use to which it is put. Discovered over 4,000 years ago, it
is one of the most important substances known to man, being
impervious and relatively inert, and has been used not only
for the making of vessels, but also for mirrors, sculpture,
boxes, lamps and objects of vertu. [suite...] |

| ICON, ART OF THE WINE LABEL |

JEFFREY CALDEWEY, CHUCK HOUSE
The wine label is a powerful icon of modern civilization. It
is a precious object of art that symbolizes and disseminates
the cultural and spiritual values of the land where wine is
grown.
Wine label design has undergone a renaissance where art meets
marketing in the most powerful way, penetrating the subconscious,
utilizing the power of suggestion to imply flavor and quality.

role in both ritual and party [suite...] |

DAVID LEIGH
For centuries wine has been served at table out of expensive
and often elaborate serving vessels. The unrivalled transparency
of lead crystal, invented in late seventeenth-century England,
led to glass, rather than silver or ceramics, increasingly being
used as the favoured material. [suite...]
