Med Grooming får du for første gang et opslagsværk, hvor alle de gode råd og guidelines om hestens pleje og fremtoning er samlet.Hvordan er det lige, man får lagt bandagerne, så de ligger perfekt? Og flettet hesten, så den står knivskarpt til det vigtige stævne, man skal afsted til? Eller klippet man og hale på den helt rigtige måde? Disse og mange andre hundrede gode spørgsmål får du svar på af hele Danmarks Grooming-darling Tina Dufour, der gennem tre år har drevet bloggen Horsegroom Denmark. Grooming er alt det, du foretager dig med din hest, som ikke involverer ridning eller kørsel. Det er det, der får hesten til at ligne en million, men det er også det, der skaber den sunde atlet, der har lang holdbarhed, færre syge- og skadespauser og dermed det, der giver hest og rytter større glæde i en hverdag med en sport, der kræver meget tid og mange penge. For første gang er alle disse gode råd og guidelines samlet i ét værk, hvor du samtidig kan nyde de flotte billeder af det smukkeste dyr i verden: Hesten.
Cathrine Laudrup-Dufours Passage er en ekstraordinær elitesportsfortælling om stræben efter perfektionen i den fuldkomne symbiose mellem rytter og hest – og en dybt personlig frigørelsesfortælling om kampen for at finde sin egen måde at forvalte sit talent og sin personlighed på.I sin selvbiografi giver Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour læseren et ufiltreret og unikt indblik i, hvad det har kostet Danmarks mest vindende dressurrytter at nå sine sportslige mål og indfri den ultimative drøm om at blive en af verdens bedste dressurryttere – og kunne leve af sin passion. Hun bliver trænet af to af verdens bedste dressurryttere: prinsesse Nathalie Zu-Sayn Wittgenstein og den legendariske OL-rytter Kyra Kyrklund. I 2021 giftede hun sig med springrytter Rasmine Laudrup-Dufour og blev en del af Danmarks største sportsfamilie. I denne bog fortæller hun for første gang om alle sine sejre – og om bagsiden af medaljen. Som 12-årig kom Cathrine på pony-landsholdet – og har været i toppen af dansk ridesport siden. Samme år vandt hun DM. Siden har hun deltaget i to olympiader og vundet et hav af hæderspriser og utallige medaljer ved DM, EM, Nordisk Mesterskab. I 2022 bragte hun VM-guldet hjem sammen med det danske dressurlandshold for første gang nogensinde. Hendes karriere er fuld af sejre. Men også nederlag, menneskelige omkostninger og personlige tab. Én pris for succesen er, at hun har mistet kontakten til en del af sin familie.Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour er født i 1992 i Hvalsø. Hun er gift med springrytter Rasmine Laudrup-Dufour. De bor på en gård i Fredensborg, hvorfra de driver deres forretning. Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour er den mest vindende danske dressurrytter nogensinde. Bogen er skrevet i samarbejde med forfatter og journalist Birgitte Wulff, der står bag flere bestsellerbiografier og er forfatter til krimiserien om Anne Velin.400
At få en hest til at præsentere sig bedst muligt, at få den til at gå for lette hjælpere og demonstrere taktfaste, rummelige gangarter imens den ubesværet viser øvelserne i de lette dressurprogrammer, er ikke helt så let, som det lyder. Alle har vi sparket og slået den ”dumme” hest, der for tiende gang hopper til siden for den farlige ”løvestol”, der står i hjørnet af ridehuset. Med udgangspunkt i hestens natur og rytterens fysik samt en række enkle metoder, udgør Karina Watson Olsens bog et fantastisk supplement til den egentlige rideundervisning for både nye og rutinerede ryttere. Bogens første del fokuserer på hestens grunduddannelse, som er baseret på at få den lydig for hjælperne, løsgjort, ligeudrettet og i balance. Det er afgørende, at grundridningen er på plads før man forsøger at ride et program. Metoderne til at opnå dette og til at rette fejl gennemgås grundigt, og er et afsnit, som man som rytter til hver en tid kan referere tilbage til, hvis man støder på problemer i hestens uddannelse. I bogens anden del gennemgås alle øvelser i de lette dressurklasser en efter en: Hvordan skal de rides, hvad er vigtigt, og hvordan løser man typiske udfordringer? Bogens sidste del handler om at ride stævner: Hvad skal du tænke på før, under og efter stævnet? Hvordan skal du træne, og hvordan skal du ride på dagen for at få flest muligt point? Her får du også gode råd til at uddanne unge dressurheste, til at vælge den rigtige hest og til at ride stævner af en af Danmarks allermest vindende unge dressurryttere, Nanna Skodborg Merrald. ”En halv parade – Fra god grundridning til de lette dressurklasser” er den første af en serie af bøger om uddannelse af hest og rytter, skrevet af dressurdommer, rytter og underviser Karina Watson Olsen.
Mange gange i løbet af hestens liv har du brug for at arbejde med hesten i longe: I den første tid før ridning, som aflastning og afvekslende træning, ved genoptræning og for at løse et problem, der er opstået under træningen. I denne bog viser Karina Watson Olsen dig, hvordan du med arbejdet fra jorden kan uddanne din hest, få et fantastisk venskab og samhørighed med den, samt indøve nye øvelser, som du siden med lethed kan udføre fra ryggen.

Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg wurde die Kavallerieschule Hannover wurde Zentrum des gesammelten reiterlichen Könnens und Wissens weltweit. In diese Zeit fiel die Neuauflage der Reitvorschrift H. Dv. 12 von 1926. Diese Ausgabe galt die beste Ausgabe der H. Dv. 12.Durch die Umstrukturierungen in der Wehrmacht benötigte man, ab Mitte der 30er Jahre, eher berittene Infanterie, als eine kampffähige Kavallerie. Durch diese Umstrukturierung, der Einführung der Wehrpflicht im Jahre 1935 und der auf zwei Jahre verkürzten Wehrdienstzeit, musste die Reitvorschrift (1937) angepasst werden. Eine schnellere Ausbildung der Pferde und Reiter auf abgesenktem Niveau stand jetzt im Vordergrund. Das Ziel war die sichere Beherrschung des Pferdes im Gelände sowie die Fähigkeit der Pferde Tagesmärsche von durchschnittlich 75 Km zu absolvieren. Pferd und Reiter wurden nur noch bis L Niveau ausgebildet, statt vormals bis M/S.Die H. Dv. 12 von 1937 wurde nachdem Krieg als Grundlage der FN Richtlinien für Reiten und Fahren herangezogen. Deshalb ist sie wertvoll, da man im Vergleich zu den Neuauflagen der FN Richtlinien, die Veränderungen der Reitlehre nachvollziehen kann.
Seine Eltern waren der preußische Generalleutnant Henning von Heydebreck (1828 -1904) und dessen erster Ehefrau Anna, geborene von Colmar (1837 -1879).Er wurde insbesondere durch seine im Jahr 1935 beendete Bearbeitung (und sprachliche Modernisierung) des Standardwerks Gymnasium des Pferdes von Gustav Steinbrecht in dessen vierter Auflage einem breiten reiterlichen Publikum bekannt. In dem von ihm neu verfassten Nachwort verwies er auf den drohenden Untergang der klassischen Reitkunst: "Schaffen wir uns nicht ein Institut, das uns neue Meister heranbildet, so geht uns die Reitkunst unmerklich aber sicher verloren."Er heiratete am 10. April 1896 in Stettin Emilie Lichtenberg. Das Paar hatte mehrere Töchter.
English settler colonies introduced a new market structure to the Native peoples of the Chesapeake watershed. Alongside trade in goods, traders and merchants exchanged peoples for labor. The Eastern Shore of the Virginia colony provides an interesting case study that provides a clear picture of the importance of Native laborers alongside African and English laborers in the early plantation economy. Power dynamics in colonial Virginia were characterized by social hierarchies, economic interests, and the exercise of authority by influential individuals. By examining cases of illegal indenture and enslavement of Native peoples by Colonel Edmund Scarburgh in the 17th century, one can see that Scarburgh emerges as an unstoppable vigilante both at the time and in historical memory, because of his accumulation of wealth and power through the Indigenous slave trade as well as his transatlantic trade interests. Physically, and in many ways legally, isolated from the rest of the Virginia colony, the case study presented herein serves as a window into the power machinations and ambitions of one man and his desire to build his plantation empire unchecked by any conventions or rules of law.
Kritische Reflexion über den Baumwollanbau in den USA, erzählt anhand einer persönlichen Familiengeschichte"Rotan Switch" ist Lisa McCords erste Monografie. Sie dokumentiert das Leben auf der Baumwollfarm ihrer Großeltern in der Gemeinde Rotan im Arkansas-Delta und ist nach dem zentralen Wahrzeichen der Gemeinde benannt - der Weiche, an der die Farmer ihre Baumwollballen auf Züge verluden. Obwohl seit Jahren ungenutzt, bleibt die Weiche ein kraftvolles Symbol für die komplexen Überschneidungen von Industrie und Landwirtschaft, von Rassismus und Ungerechtigkeit.Die in 44 Jahren gesammelten Bilder und Geschichten sind eine Reflexion über die Menschen und Orte, die McCord die Bedeutung des Wortes Heimat gelehrt haben. Dieses Langzeitprojekt aus McCords analogen Fotografien, Familienschnappschüssen und Ephemera wie Farbpolaroids und Rezepten, ist auch eine Selbsterforschung ihrer komplizierten Rolle in dieser Gemeinschaft.
Quarries are an interdisciplinary research topic for scholars who are interested in technical organization, economy, work processes and supply chains. In antiquity, the quarrying and trade of stone were highly dependent on persons from a variety of legal status groups and their cooperation in networks and institutions. Research shows that during the high Roman Empire, some quarries both belonged to the Roman emperor and were operated by an administrative structure that was highly dependent on him. Although the administrations were organized in a strict hierarchy, they depended much more on the emperor and the officials he employed than on the legal statuses of individuals. Slaves and freedmen gained importance due to their specialization in business. Characteristic is the cooperation of these actors within different fields of work in the economy, but in many cases it cannot be determined in detail merely from the sources, and requires research models. By using the chaîne opératoire and analyzing the quarry at Simitthus as an example, the paper shows to what extent this methodology is suitable for identifying dependency relationships between individuals. In addition, interagency and spatial relations can serve as indicators of dependencies among the actors, and network analysis offers insights into administrations in imperial quarries.

The history of captivity in the early modern Mediterranean has been studied exclusively through European and Ottoman/Turkish sources. But from Aghadir to Alexandretta, the language of piety, travel, religious disputation, and chronicle was Arabic (sometimes written as Garshuni). An extensive archive has survived in Arabic describing the experiences of Muslims, Eastern Christians, and Jews in European captivity. After all, from the middle of the seventeenth century on, British and French fleets, with their advanced naval capabilities, seized large numbers of captives from the 'other shore' (to cite Braudel) - captives who have been ignored in scholarship but survive in numerous sculptures from Spain and Germany to Malta and Hungary. This study continues the research into the Arabic archive by introducing further accounts about captivity by European pirates and privateers, showing how the Mediterranean became the scene of Christian masters and Arabic-speaking slaves. Not surprising, by the nineteenth century, a Moroccan traveler prayed that the Mediterranean become a barrier/hajiz against European depredations.
Castro Marim, in SE Portugal, was a site of internal exile for several thousand minor sinners and convicts from the 1400s until the 1830s. The punishment was revived by the Estado Novo dictatorship a century later. During early modern times, the guilty could flee to several border towns for sanctuary. The state's courts and later courts of the Inquisition directed minor offenders to this town, typically for two to three years. These newcomers were forced to either enter the local work force or flee. Here we see a detailed example of social control and coordination between the early modern Church and state. Crime, sin, punishment, redemption, sanctuary, the Enlightenment, monopolies, and smuggling interact with this system of forced labor. Sanctuary, internal exile, and town of free people created a unique legal and social space. This labor force was long-lasting, flexible, and useful. Tax evasion and smuggling forced Lisbon to create neighboring Vila Real de Santo António, with tighter fiscal control and free labor which would eventually supersede this forced labor system in Castro Marim. Internal exile was a semi-independent judicial component linked to manpower needs overseas, ending as those demands increased.

From trailblazing political activist Angela Y. Davis, a major new collection of essays and interviews that argue for a radical rethinking of our prison systemsAn icon of revolutionary politics, Angela Y. Davis has been at the forefront of collective movements for prison abolition for over fifty years. Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises, the first of two important new volumes, brings together an essential collection of Davis's essays, conversations, and interviews over the years, showing how her thinking has sharpened and evolved even as she has remained uncompromising in her commitment to collective liberation. Davis traces a genealogy of the penal system, from slavery to the prison industrial complex, offering a trenchant analysis of the relationship between the prison system and capitalism, both in the US and on a global scale. Combining decades of analytical brilliance and lessons from organising both inside and beyond prison walls, Davis addresses the history of abolitionist practice, details the unique contributions of women to abolitionist struggles, and offers the radical tools we need for revolutionary change. Powerful and rewarding, filled with insight and provocation, Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises, is essential reading for anyone seeking to imagine a world without prisons. 'A woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard' New York Times'She has eyes in the back of our head. With her we can survive and resist' John Berger'Behold the heart and mind of Angela Davis: open, relentless, and on time! She is as radiant, she is as true, as that invincible sunrise' June Jordan
A little-known story of mutiny and murder illustrating the centrality of smuggling and slavery in early American societyOn the night of June 1, 1743, terror struck the schooner Rising Sun. After completing a routine smuggling voyage where the crew sold enslaved Africans in exchange for chocolate, sugar, and coffee in the Dutch colony of Suriname, the ship traveled eastward along the South American coast. Believing there was an opportunity to steal the lucrative cargo and make a new life for themselves, three sailors snuck below deck, murdered four people, and seized control of the vessel.Mutiny on the Rising Sun recounts the origins, events, and eventual fate of the Rising Sun¿s final smuggling voyage in vivid detail. Starting from that horrible night in June 1743, it narrates a deeply human history of smuggling, providing an incredible story of those caught in the webs spun by illicit commerce. The case generated a rich documentary record that illuminates an international chocolate smuggling ring, the lives of the crew and mutineers, and the harrowing experience of the enslaved people trafficked by the Rising Sun. Smuggling stood at the center of the lives of everyone involved with the business of the schooner. Larger forces, such as imperial trade restrictions, created the conditions for smuggling, but individual actors, often driven by raw ambition and with little regard for the consequences of their actions, designed, refined, and perpetuated this illicit commerce. At once startling and captivating, Mutiny on the Rising Sun shows how illegal trade created demand for exotic products like chocolate, and how slavery and smuggling were integral to the development of American capitalism.
In 1739 Bordeaux's Royal Academy of Sciences held an essay contest seeking answers to a pressing question: What was the cause of Africans' black skin? Published here for the first time and translated into English, these early documents of scientific racism lay bare the Enlightenment origins of the phantom of racial hierarchy.

African slaves were brought into Brazil as early as 1530, with abolition in 1888. During those three centuries, Brazil received 4,000,000 Africans, over four times as many as any other American destination. Comparatively speaking, Brazil received 40% of the total number of Africans brought to the Americas, while the US received approximately 10%. Due to this huge influx of Africans, today Brazil's African-descended population is larger than the population of most African countries. Therefore, it is no surprise that Slavery Studies are one of the most consolidated fields in Brazilian historiography. In the last decades, a number of discussions have flourished on issues such as slave agency, slavery and law, slavery and capitalism, slave families, demography of slavery, transatlantic slave trade, abolition etc. In addition to these more consolidated fields, current research has focused on illegal enslavement, global perspectives on slavery and the slave trade, slavery and gender, the engagement of different social groups in the abolitionist movement or Atlantic connections. Taking into consideration these new trends of Brazilian slavery studies, this volume of collected articles gives leading scholars the chance to present their research to a broader academic community. Thus, the interested reader get to know in more detail these current trends in Brazilian historiography on slavery.
