Product Description Through falconry imagery the author takes the reader through a wide range of many poets and dramatists of the Late Mediaeval and Renaissance areas. The symbolism and many references on this sport in literature gives the reader a good incite into falconry of the past and as it is practised in the present. The author has broken new ground and rediscovered references in literature known to an older generation of falconry enthusiasts. This book will be of practical use to students and aficionados of the English literature in clarifying some of the confusion that falconry can cause in Mediaeval and Renaissance texts. An interesting read of untold wealth of cultural and social history. About the Author David Horobin describes himself as passionately addicted to the chase in all its forms and currently seeking employment more conducive to falconry. In addition to hawking with friends whenever possible, he is a keen follower of the Albrighton Woodland Hunt and other packs of hounds, and also enjoys rifle and shotgun shooting. He has contributed several articles to local and national publications, and his work frequently appears in The Austringer the journal of the Welsh Hawking Club. This is his first book, though he now aims to research and the use of shortwings in early English falconry.
