Practical Cataloguing AACR, RDA and MARC21

Practical Cataloguing AACR, RDA and MARC21
Practical Cataloguing: AACR, RDA and MARC21 By Anne Welsh, Sue Batley
2012 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 1856046958 | PDF | 2 MB
The impending launch of Resource Description and Access (RDA) will undoubtedly transform cataloging standards that have been virtually unchanged for 30 years, and little guidance is available to help catalogers make a smooth transition to RDA. Practical Cataloging: AACR, RDA and MARC21 fills this gap by offering a step-by-step guide for mapping these new standards onto existing rules for description. The book thoroughly covers FRBR (Functional Requirements of Bibliographic Records) and FRAD (Functional Requirements of Authority Data), on which the new rules are built, and explores how RDA elements can be incorporated into MARC21. Authors Anne Welsh and Sue Batley provide readers with an introduction to current catalogs and standards, and examine publication formats, bibliographic elements, access points, and headings. Theirs is a complete guide to RDA, including its development, structure, and features, plus a section that addresses its similarities and differences with AACR. The authors also explain the MARC21 record, studying tags, indicators, and sub-field codes.

Pope Benedict XII (1334-1342) The Guardian of Orthodoxy

Pope Benedict XII (1334-1342) The Guardian of Orthodoxy
Irene Bueno, Barbara Bombi, Mike Carr, "Pope Benedict XII (1334-1342): The Guardian of Orthodoxy"
English | 2018 | pages: 278 | ISBN: 9462986770 | PDF | 2,2 mb
This book offers a unique overview on the career and work on Benedict XII, the third pope of Avignon. Benedict XII (ca. 1334-1342) was a key figure of the Avignon papal court, renowned for rooting out heretics and distinguishing himself as a refined theologian. During his reign, he faced the most significant religious and political challenges in the era of the Avignon papacy: theological quarrels, divisions and schisms within the Church, conflicts between European sovereigns, and the growth of Turkish power in the East. In spite of its diminished political influence, the papacy, which had recently moved to France, emerged as an institution committed to the defense and expansion of the Catholic faith in Europe and the East. Benedict made significant contributions to the definition of doctrine, the assessment of pontifical power in Western Europe, and the expansion of Catholicism in the East: in all these different contexts he distinguished himself as a true guardian of orthodoxy.

Poet of the Medieval Modern Reading the Early Medieval Library with David Jones

Poet of the Medieval Modern Reading the Early Medieval Library with David Jones
Francesca Brooks, "Poet of the Medieval Modern: Reading the Early Medieval Library with David Jones "
English | ISBN: 0198860145 | 2022 | 352 pages | PDF | 4 MB
The early Middle Ages provided twentieth-century poets with the material to re-imagine and rework local, religious, and national identities in their writing. Poet of the Medieval Modern focuses on a key figure within this tradition, the Anglo-Welsh poet and artist David Jones (1895-1974): representing the first extended study of the influence of early medieval English culture and history on Jones and his novel-length late modernist poem The Anathemata (1952). Jones's second major poetic project after In Parenthesis (1937), The Anathemata fuses Jones's visual and verbal arts to write a Catholic history of Britain as told through the history of man-as-artist.

Piers Plowman and its Manuscript Tradition

Piers Plowman and its Manuscript Tradition
Piers Plowman and its Manuscript Tradition (York Manuscript and Early Print Studies) by Sarah Wood
English | August 16, 2022 | ISBN: 1914049071 | True EPUB/PDF | 248 pages | 10/5.2 MB
The fifty-plus surviving manuscripts of William Langland's Piers Plowman cast important light on the early public life of this central Middle English work, but they have been relatively neglected by scholarship. This first full study of the subject examines the textual variants, marginal rubrics and companion texts in the manuscripts. It illuminates a reception quite distinct from the reformist poems written by Langland's imitators in "the Piers Plowman tradition". It reveals how the earliest scribes devised various traditional forms of presentation that proved remarkably durable in the poem's subsequent reception, even surviving into the age of print.
