study of oriental arms in poland
hi,
wolviex rightly prevented a good post being diverted, but i thought it would good to create its own thread, in the hope that others will contribute. i had the opinion that it was thought that there was not much polish contribution to the study of oriental arms, which i have to disagree with. there is a strong passion for oriental arms in poland, and there is much respect for the academic study, and collections gathered there. from jim - "Szabla Zotnierza Polskiego XIX i XX wiek" Aleksander Czerwinski and Leslaw Dudek, Warsaw, 1988 "Polish Arms, Side Arms" by Andrzej Nadolski, Warsaw, 1974 "Piec Wiekow Szabli Polskiej" by Wlodzimierz Kwasniewicz, Warsaw, 1993 "Ciecia Prawdziwa Szabla" by Wojciech Zablocki, Warsaw, 1989 and most valuable and of broader scope, "Bron W Dawnej Polsce", by Dr. Zdzislaw Zygulski Jr. Warsaw, 1975 from tim - Orez Perski. 2000. Museum Zamkowe W Malborku. ISBN 83-86206-31-4 from my library - bron i uzbrojenie tatarow (outstanding study of tartar arms and armour) collections of royal castle of wawel arcydziela sztuki perskiej ze zbiorow polskich (good exhibition catalogue) stara bron w polskich zbiorach (great book from polish collections) wojna i pokoj (absolutely outstanding and comprehensive exhibition catalogue of ottoman arms - also published in english called 'war and peace' |
