  Hilary Mantel
Mantel strips society of its thin veneer of politeness to reveal the rotten core beneath, ‘… triteness was in his mouth like a foul taste long incubated.’ Below the surface, all is rancid.
Mantel displays the hypocrisy of the West’s attitude to the oil-rich kingdom, and attacks its deliberate blindness.
Mantel’s award-winning and semi-autobiographical novel An Experiment in Love, (1995) is, despite a somewhat misleading and badly chosen title, a subtle and perceptive analysis of childhood misery, youthful naivety and female friendship.

Mantel, who was probably hurriedly circulating around the dressing-room area communicating the layout of that morning’s live TV show, gave the blonde-haired muscleman another five minutes to come up with something better.
As Dutch tells it: “Chris Gallagher starved to death, so I buried him with a full funeral and then ‘Dutch Mantel’ was born.” Former wrestler Buddy Fuller had the idea of the Dutch character, a rough-and-tumble, modern-day outlaw of sorts.
Mantel was always careful to take care of the boys when using the bullwhip; however, he often wasn’t extended that same courtesy.

That on the right has lost its hood and mantel shelf, but the one in the kitchen on the left remains as it was built.
The fire, after the Dutch manner, was built against the wall, and the hanging hood gathered the smoke.

 Living - The Cincinnati Post
Choosing what objects to place upon a mantel causes a rift between two sets of humans, those who favor symmetry and those who think placing identical pairs of things (vases, candlesticks, whatever) on both ends of a mantel to create a balance of equals is too dull to be endured.
This latter group prefers to adorn their mantels asymmetrically, a trickier proposition because the eye always demands some sort of balance, even if the objects on either end of a mantel are disparate.
Recently, a panel of Dutch experts met to decide which bulbs, in their opinion, were the best perennial performers for the widest range of growing conditions in the U.S. On the list is Tulipa "Orange Emperor," the tulip that Oprah Winfrey once declared her favorite.

Jay said that he thought Mantel might tell him to stand, but he never expected to be physically forced to do so.
Jay's friend who was in the class at the time, Corey, says that their teacher had been strict in the past in demanding that students stand for the national anthem and pledge of allegiance.
Seeing acts like Mantel's go unpunished will likely inspire teachers to continue intimidating their students into standing for the national anthem and pledge of allegiance.

Plates have been set on the mantel shelf and printed cloth is hung along the bottom to catch smoke.
Fortunately, when the original fireplace later was removed, the sides and front of the cornice used for the mantel were carefully stored in an attic and preserved until the present.
Surviving cellar arches or cradles, the ceiling and cellar framing, and the stones or shelf in the cellar wall, as well as tell-tale shadow marks on beams and in attics, attest to their former presence, as in the Mabee House.

 Fireplace mantel is centerpiece of holiday tradition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
According to the HistoryChannel.com, the tradition of hanging stockings from the mantel at Christmas began with the legend of Santa Claus, which can be traced back hundreds of years to a monk named St. Nicholas, who was known for his red cape and flowing white beard.
The name Santa Claus evolved from St. Nicholas’ Dutch nickname, Sinter Klaas, and the Dutch carried on the tradition of hanging stockings by the fireplace in his honor.
So while it might be a neglected afterthought throughout the rest of the year, especially in warm climates, the fireplace becomes a focal point of tradition and adornment in many homes during the Christmas holiday season, whether or not it is inspired by the legend of St. Nicholas’ benevolence.

 SANTA CLAUS: The Great Imposter
Dutch children began the tradition of placing their shoes by the fireplace on December 5, for the mystic fourth century Bishop, Saint Nicholas.
The dilemma was solved by transferring the visit of the mysterious man whom the Dutch called Santa Claus from December 5 to Christmas, and by introducing a radical change in the figure itself.
Although the Dutch brought Sinta Claes [ sic ] with them to the New World in the seventh century, Santa Claus was not born until the nineteenth century and was an American, not a Dutch, creation.

 Gordon S. Converse and Company - Antiques and Fine Clocks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
No one can dispute that the classic 18th century standing Dutch clocks were the epitome of over the top grandfather clocks.
Typically these splendid clocks not only show masterful case work with outstanding quality burl wood inlays and complex mouldings and carvings and bombe bases, they also often had clockworks with all the "bells and whistles": rocking ships, automata and music.
The Dutch always paid painstaking attention to detail, and this is seen in both the execution of the dial with its maddeningly complex rocking ships and waves as well as the case from the carved paw feet all the way to the hood with its multiple open fret cuts-outs.10' X 30" X 14".
