More than one hundred years of Film Sizes Film sizes, marvelous scope for collecting Struggle for standardization One hundred years of cinema is also due to acceptance of one standard gauge. Whereas film equipment has undergone drastic changes in the course of a century it is a little miracle that 35mm has remained the universally accepted film size. If film had followed the same course as video, with its continuing change of systems, the development might have been delayed considerably. Edison We owe the format to a great extent to Edison (see photo) - in fact 35mm was called the Edison size before.

Thereupon W.K.L.Dickson of his laboratory ordered a roll of film of 1 3/8"(ca. 35 mm) width from Eastman. This was half the film size used in Eastman Kodak cameras. It was to be used in a new type of Kinetoscope for moving images on a strip of celluloid film, which could be viewed by one person at the time.

Back to Medieval Source Book Medieval Sourcebook: Jean Froissart: On The Hundred Years War (1337-1453) The "Hundred Years' War" between France and England (1337-1453) was an episodic struggle lasting well over a hundred years, for much of the time without any conflict. The battles were both violent, but also occasions when ideals of "chivalry" were displayed. Here are extracts describing various battles from the Chronicle of Jean Froissart. The Battle of Crecy (1346) The Englishmen, who were in three battles lying on the ground to rest them, as soon as they saw the Frenchmen approach, they rose upon their feet fair and easily without any haste and arranged their battles. The first, which was the prince's battle, the archers there stood in manner of a herse and the men of arms in the bottom of the battle. The earl of Northampton and the earl of Arundel with the second battle were on a wing in good order, ready to comfort the prince's battle, if need were.

Back to Medieval Source Book ORB Main Page Links to Other Medieval Sites Medieval Sourcebook: The Hundred Years War In The High Court Of Parlement The following documents are taken from the registers of the Parlement of Paris. They are principally arrets or juges of the Court, that is final or interlocutory decisions. If proofs involved hearing witnesses, these would be named and enqueteurs (inquisitors, or what are now called "judges for instruction" in Civil Code countries), dispatched to hear them. Parties would have the opportunity to tell the court if they believed any of the opposing side's witnesses were prejudiced against them, but there was no cross examination of witnesses by the parties or by their proctors. Proceedings could sometimes be agonizingly slow, for excuses of all kinds were allowed for not appearing, delays were allowed, and the rules of procedure themselves allowed many opportunities for chicanery. Often a case spun off other subsidiary disputes (as in VII below) which had to be resolved before the principal case could be decided. It is thus not surprising that litigation seems sometimes never to reach a final judgment, probably because one or both of the parties died before the Court could decide, or because settlements were reached out of court (though I once followed one dispute between a monastery and a bishop through a variety of courts over more than a hundred years). It was not just in England that a Man of Law

THE HISTORY OF FRANCE -1- The only European country facing both the North Sea and the Mediterranean, France has been subject to a particulary rich variety of cultural influences. Though famous for the rootedness of its peasant population, it has also been a European melting pot, even before the arrival of the Celtic Gauls in the centuries before Christ, through to the Mediterranean immigrations of the 20th century. Roman conquest by Julius Caesar had an enduring impact, but from the 4th and 5th centuries AD, waves of Barbarbian invaders destroyed much of the Roman legacy. The Germanic Franks provided political leadership in the following centuries, but when their line died out in the late 10th century, France was socially and politically fragmented. THE FORMATION OF FRANCE PREHISTORIC FRANCE ROMAN GAUL THE MONASTIC REALM ... THE HISTORY OF FRANCE / Page 2 THE FORMATION OF FRANCE PREHISTORIC FRANCE The earliest traces of human life in France date back to around 2 million BC. From around 40,000 BC, Homo sapiens lived an itinerant existence as hunters and gatherers. Around 6000 BC, following the end of Ice Age, a major shift in lifestyle occured as people settled down to herd animals and cultivate crops. The advent of metal-working allowed more effective tools and weapons to be developed. The Iron Age is associated particulary with the Celts, who arrived from the east during the first millennium BC. A more complex social hierarchy developed, consisting of warriors, farmers, artisans and druids (Celtic priests).

There was a international love affair with the poster and poster artists vied with each other for recognition.
