The Violin Volume 2 By George Hart His real name was Gasparo dei Bertolotti. The researches of Cavalliere Livi, keeper of the Brescian Archives, have brought to light much valuable information as to this famous maker. He was born in the town of Salo (Province of Brescia) in or about the year 1542, died there on the 14th of April, 1609, and was buried in the church of San Joseffo. A son (Francesco) appears to have worked with him and to have died in 1614. Several Viols of Gasparo''s workmanship, of different sizes, are still extant. The Violins are very rare. A few large Violas exist, the tone of which is magnificent. His genuine labels bear no date. Gio Paolo Maggini was apprenticed to him, and is believed to have purchased the business, after Gasparo''s death, from his son Francesco.

A dictionary of Egyptian Gods.

"Get to know the great gods and goddesses of ancient Egypt in this handy illustrated dictionary... Every entry is illustrated with colour photographs and with the hieroglyphs of the deity''s name"--from front jacket flap.

El rico panorama de la mitología del antiguo Egipto perdura hasta nuestra época a través de las pinturas en tumbas, inscripciones en templos y textos en papiros. Este relato empieza con las leyendas de la creación de Heliópolis, Menfis y Hermópolis, ilustrando los esfuerzos intelectuales de los egipcios para explicar los comienzos del mundo. Los mitos que siguen abarcan desde historias de los dioses -el asesinato de Osiris y la venganza de Horus, Isis y los siete escorpiones, Sajmet y el exterminio virtual de la humanidad- hasta fábulas tales como la del Marinero Náufrago y la de la Isla Encantada.

Depuis des millénaires, temples et tombeaux, papyrus et inscriptions dans la vallée du Nil attestent la richesse de la mythologie égyptienne. Transmises par les scribes, les prêtres et les conteurs, sont venues jusqu''à nous ces légendes qui parlaient des origines de l''homme, de la persistance de la vie après la mort. Ce livre se fait l''écho des cosmogonies issues d''antiques traditions. Il relate les mythes où s''inscrivent des épisodes du destin des dieux - le meurtre d''Osiris et la vengeance d''Horus, Isis et les sept scorpions, Sekhmet et le massacre virtuel de l''humanité. Il donne enfin leur place aux récits fantastiques, tels ceux du " Marin naufragé " et de l'' "Ile enchantée ". Reflet du profane comme du sacré, quête du savoir ultime, plongée dans l''imaginaire, les mythes et légendes de l''Egypte ancienne fondent la conception du monde que s''est donnée la société qui les a engendrés.
