HISTORY of SCULPTURE, PAINTING, and 



ARCHITECTURE. 

 By J. S. MEMES, L.L.D. Author of" The Life of Canova," &c. 



The histories of the plastic art are, for the most part, too technical for un- 

 professional readers, and too expensive for ordinary purchasers. In this 

 volume will be found an account of the progress of these arts, sufficiently po- 

 pular for general purposes, and at the same time so accurate, as not to be 

 beneath the notice of men of science.

 useful volumes of that well-selected library of instruction and amusement." Scots Times 



HISTORY of the OTTOMAN EMPIRE, 



from its establishment in 1326 to 1828. 

 By E. UPHAM, Esq. Author of " The History of Budhism," &c. 



The fortunes of the Turkish empire, in its rise, progress, and decay, present 

 phenomena unparalleled in the annals of nations. This is the only English 

 work that contains the modern history of the Turkish people, and indeed all 

 the former histories were very expensive, and are now so rare as not to be 

 acquired without difficulty. 



Mr Upham's history of this remarkable 



le people is composed with much candour and 



impartiality ; and contains a great deal of information not to be met with in anv other 

 English book with which we are acquainted. "-Edinburgh Literary Journal

in Scottish history than is any where else to be f^a.
