A richly illustrated glimpse into the magnificent collection of seventeenth-century men's dress from the Danish kings' wardrobes Ten Kings' Clothes: Royal Danish Dress, 1596-1863&nbsp;presents the&nbsp;unparalleled collection of seventeenth-century male dress, belonging to the Danish kings from Christian IV to Frederik VII. The incomparable research showcases&nbsp;the collection of each monarch, put into context against the backdrop of pivotal moments in Danish history, the networks of supply, and the production and circulation of luxury goods.&nbsp;Richly illustrated with portraits, prints, and the stunning garments, extended entries and hand-drafted patterns allow a detailed and technical appreciation of each item. The historical garments tell the story not only of the kings' coronations and weddings but also of everyday life at court, including the contributions of tailors, embroiderers, valets, portrait artists, castle stewards, and laundresses. The book also includes a foreword written by Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark. &nbsp;

Career Guidance in communities discusses the interaction between everyday lives, learning, participating in career guidance activities and transitions in and out of the educational system and labour market. On the basis of Critical Psychology, the author points to the dilemmas and paradoxes in both 'career guidance' and 'workplace guidance'. By showing how guidance activities can develop within the community generally, the book puts forward a decentred perspective. Career guidance is not a goal in itself; it is a means to support a person's participation in the economic society through education and work, but through their actions the participants in the community modify and change the guidance practice, thereby creating new possibilities for themselves and each other. The discussions in this book are of relevance to career guidance practitioners, policymakers and politicians - in short, anyone involved in career guidance, counselling and career development. Praise for this volume: 'By providing a sustained critique of the 'language', form and practice of mainstream career guidance, and by privileging the user's voice, Rie Thomsen does the profession an invaluable service. The book introduces new, exciting and challenging perspectives that resonate with the collective turn in public service provision.' Professor Ronald G. Sultana, University of Malta 'In her research, Rie Thomsen underscores the centrality of the users of guidance being co-constructors of career guidance. The voice of users is pivotal in times where career guidance policies seem to pursue economic goals, rather than humanistic ones. In these terms, Career Guidance in Communities is very timely: united we stand. Alone we fall.' Professor Peter Plant, Aarhus University, DK 'A vision of career guidance as a participatory endeavour unfolds, with the analysis underpinned by research evidence that has been carried out with reflective and intellectual rigour.' Jenny Bimrose, Warwick University, UK

The two volumes of The Archaeology of Medieval Europe together comprise the first complete account of Medieval Archaeology across the continent. This ground-breaking set will enable readers to track the development of different cultures and regions over the 800 years that formed the Europe we have today. In addition to revealing the process of Europeanisation, within its shared intellectual and technical inheritance, the complete work provides an opportunity for demonstrating the differences that were inevitably present across the continent - from Iceland to Sicily and Portugal to Finland. Forty-one archaeologists from fifteen countries collaborated to produce Volume 1, which was published in 2007 and presented the period from the eighth to the twelfth century. Sixty-six archaeologists from eighteen countries have got together to create Volume 2, which surveys the scene from the twelfth to the sixteenth centuries. In this second volume, the same broad scheme is followed. After introducing the method and theory of Medieval Archaeology, the focus is on Habitat (environment, rural life, housing and portable artefacts), followed by Power, where war, manufacture, trade and towns are the subjects for discussion. A third theme is the study of Spirituality, an often overwhelming force in medieval life, which archaeologists encounter in landscape, buildings and burial practice. As well as the expected emphasis on Christian Catholic practice, there are major sections showing the importance of Judaism and the Islamic presence in later Medieval Europe. Each volume is comprehensively illustrated throughout in colour and monochrome, with line drawings, tables and maps designed to guide the reader. The book is intended to show what archaeology can do, not only for the archaeologist, but for the historian, the art historian, the environmentalist, the zoologist and the general scientist - in fact, all those scholars, students and general readers, for whom the Middle Ages is a fundamental element in the foundations of modern Europe.
