Book Description
Excerpt from A Glossary of Terms Used in Heraldry While primarily the object of the work, as has been said, is to describe and explain terms used in Heraldry, and more especially in the blazon of Coats of Arms, the practical side of Heraldry has not been overlooked. Under such articles as Ear-emery, Am, Achievements, and the like, several of the rules of Heraldry are introduced. Also the various Titles of Nobility, &c.; Orders of Knights Heralds, &c., will all be found in the Glossary with such information given in a condensed form as it is thought will be oi use' to those students of Heraldry who pursue the subject otherwise than as an adjunct to Genealogical and Archaological enquiry. It has been attempted, as far as possible, for the sake of condensation, to bring similar terms together, and it is thought that the cross references at the foot of the page will afi'ord every facility for finding any word: for the sake, how ever, of assisting those who use the book to grasp the prin ciple of the arrangement, a very full Sxxom'lou. Tuna is given after this Introduction, in which the terms are arranged under several headings in systematic order; and such terms as are found in the Alphabetical Glossary being given in italic, those following the chief term will be found described beneath the same. Apart from the use which it has been to the compiler, and apart from that which it may be to those who use the book, it is thought that such a synoptical view will not be otherwise than interesting, as showing the vast range of subjects over which those who have had duly as signed to them (or unduly taken to themselves) coats of arms have extended their choice. Objection may perhaps be taken to the classification of the Ordinaries and Conventional Charges as not being one generally recognized. There is so much disagreement, however, amongst writers, that it has been thought better to adopt an independent system, guided rather by convenience than by any ao-called authority.
