<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Gothic art originated around 1140 in the
Île-de-France and from there spread throughout Europe. The style was not
confined to sacral art and architecture, but increasingly invaded secular and
private spheres. This book describes the development of the Gothic movement in
all its diversity, focusing largely on Gothic architecture.</FONT></P><FONT

Shakespeare: The Biography</STRONG>By Peter Ackroyd </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>This volume focuses on Shakespeare as an
extraordinarily talented theater professional rather than rhapsodizing about the
intricacies of the man's genius. Interweaving Shakespeare's life story with
England's dramatic history and the fascinating world of the emerging Elizabethan
theater, Ackroyd identifies apocryphal stories and plausible explanations for
what occurred during the missing years. </FONT></P>
