#329868 Ippica Cavalli
Livorno, Sillabe S.r.l 2018, cm.24x28, pp.416, illustrazioni in bianco e nero e a colori, tavole a colori. brossura copertina figurata a colori. Collana Firenze Musei, 1. Il cavallo figura fra gli ultimi animali ad essere addomesticato. Solo sul finire del IV millennio a.C., nelle steppe dell'Asia centrale, per la prima volta il cavallo cessò di essere semplicemente una preda da carne per intrecciare sempre più strettamente il suo destino con quello dell'uomo. La mostra, a cura di Lorenza Camin e Fabrizio Paolucci e ospitata nella settecentesca Limonaia del Giardino di Boboli a Firenze dal 26 giugno al 14 ottobre, vuole raccontare proprio questo antico rapporto con una selezione di oggetti che, spesso trascurati nell'esposizioni museali a vantaggio di opere più appariscenti, sono invece in grado di narrare le mille sfaccettature di una relazione che coinvolgeva ogni aspetto della vita quotidiana. "Quale sia stato il luogo in cui sia nata e sviluppata la domesticazione del cavallo è ancor oggi uno degli argomenti di più acceso dibattito nella letteratura scientifica. Sembrerebbe, però, del tutto illogico immaginare che il cavallo abbia iniziato la sua millenaria storia di convivenza con l'uomo in un luogo diverso da quello dell'Europa orientale e delle steppe euroasiatiche" scrivono Camin e Paolucci. Strumenti necessari al controllo dell'animale (morsi, filetti, speroni, staffe etc.) sono esposti in mostra accanto a una serie di opere scelte per illustrare, nel modo più diretto e realistico, il ruolo primario che il cavallo ebbe nel mondo antico. I reperti presenti, quasi un centinaio, provengono da decine di musei italiani e stranieri e illustrano un arco di tempo di oltre duemila anni, dalla prima Età del Ferro sino al Tardo Medioevo. Il percorso, incentrato soprattutto sul mondo italico, è articolato in cinque sezioni, ognuna delle quali è dedicata a un particolare momento storico: la Preistoria, il mondo greco e magno greco, il mondo etrusco e venetico, l'epoca romana e il Medioevo.

Manchester, Carcanet 1992, cm.14x22, pp.244, legatura editoriale cartonata, sopracoperta figurata a colori. In dictionary form, but offering much more than a dictionary, this book presents a guide to the history, development and usage of words and phrases employed on the racecourse, by those who train and look after the horses, those who ride them and those who lose their money betting on them. Here you can find out exactly what 'the distance' is, and why it is so called; what the 'cap' was in handicap; what relation the wild goose chase had to the steeplechase; what is 'dead' about a dead heat and what the differences are between getting in, getting on, getting out, and getting up. The history of racing language has many surprises, so be prepared to discover that racing is not the first, or even the second claimant to the title 'Sport of Kings'; that when jockeys 'nurse' a horse in a race the term comes from the nineteenth-century omnibus service; and what when a horse 'pecks' after a jump this has nothing to do with birds. Whether at Ascot or a local 'gaff', this book opens up the language of the racecourse, including the bizarre vocabulary of betting, from the 'betting boots' which early bookies put on, to the 'faces', 'heads', 'sharks' and 'sharps' who feed off the 'buzz' and 'whisper' which go round the ring.

Howell Book House 1995, cm.15x23, pp.XVIII,362, paperback. The C Level is an intermediate level of horsemanship. This C Level manual builds on material covered in The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship: Basics for Beginners/D Level. Whether you are a Pony Clubber who has passed the D Level tests or simply a rider who has mastered the same basics, this manual will enable you to increase your skills and teach you what you must know in order to ride independently and correctly with good position, balance, and use of the aids on the flat, over fences, and in the open. At the intermediate level you are expected to take more responsibility for the care and management of your pony, and you will learn how to do this as well. In addition, you will learn the skills needed for conditioning and preparing your pony and yourself for competitions and special events. From the C Level, you may go on to higher Pony Club ratings such as B, H A, or A Ratings, or specialize in such disciplines as dressage, show jumping, eventing, and showing. Or you may just want to have the pleasure of caring for your horse or pony and participating in your favorite riding activities. Either way, The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship: Intermediate Horsemanship/C Level will give you an excellent basis in horsemanship for the lifelong enjoyment of horses and horse sports.
