Zt., berieben, Ecken bestossen,sonst guter Zustand, innen frisch) Second edition, first published in 1801. With accounts of hunting and hawking, archery, stone throwing, all sorts of ball games including tennis and golf, jousts and tournaments, to miracle plays, minstrels, Morris dancing, animal bating, and even sedentary and solitary games. This is an important history of recreational activities and traditional celebrations in the British Isles. : Thomas Strutt ( 1749 - 1802 ) may justifiably be regarded as the first serious historian of dress in England, and his pioneering works of scholarship were heavily drawn upon by nineteenth-century costume historians. Unlike many of his contemporaries, who doubted the reliability of artistic sources as historical evidence, he employed a comparative analysis of the manuscripts, showing that they were reliable indicators of changes not just in matters of dress but also of the manners and customs of the time. He was one of the first to realize the potential value of visual material as a historical source rather than as simply serving an illustrative purpose. He showed an early appreciation of the intrinsic merit of medieval art and was unusual in producing near-facsimile engraved reproductions of the originals.
