The aborigines of Australia who lead a most primitive hunting and wild food collecting existence with a minimum of physical equipment nevertheless devote considerable attention to the decoration of their possessions, utilitarian as well as sacred. Much of Australian art apparently is primarily aesthetic but other appearances are of profound religious significance. This study is based on materials in museum collections in Australia, the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, field studies in North Australia, and published sources. Contents: Introduction; Decorative Art of the Australians; Techniques of Decoration; Objects Decorated; Weapons; Baskets and Containers; Various Objects of Regional or Local Significance; Bullroarers, Churinga and Other Sacred Objects; Symbolism; Distribution of Design Elements; Design Areas; Conclusions; Biblliography. Illus.

When a certain Mark Anthony of the famous Italian family of the Roveres arrived in Agen, in SW France, in the second decade of the 16th century, he brought along with him his personal physician, Master Julius Caesar, who had been under the protection of his family for some time. This latter was a majestic-looking man of some 40 years of age who was to become renowned as one of the greatest scholars of the Renaissance. Indeed, so great became his fame in all branches of learning that it was for long considered that he was the greatest scholar who had ever dwelt in France. This study provides all the important things known about the life of Julius Caesar Scaliger (1484-1558). This is a print on demand publication.
