Описание:

Spanning most of the years of the one-party South, the public career of Virginian Claude A. Swanson, congressman, governor, senator, and secretary of the navy, extended from the second administration of Grover Cleveland into that of Franklin Roosevelt. His record, writes Henry C. Ferrell, Jr., in this definitive biography, is that of a skillful legislative diplomat and an exceedingly wise executive encompassed in the personality of a professional politician.

As a congressman, Swanson abandoned Clevelands laissez faire doctrines to become the leading Virginia spokesman for William Jennings Bryan and the Democratic platform of 1896. His achievements as a reform governor are equaled by few Virginia chief executives. In the Senate, Swanson worked to advance the programs of Woodrow Wilson. In the 1920s, he contributed to formulation of Democratic alternatives to Republican policies. In Roosevelts New Deal cabinet, he helped the Navy obtain favorable treatment during a decade of isolation.

The warp and woof of local politics are well explicated by Ferrell to furnish insight into personalities and events that first produced, then sustained, Swan-sons electoral success. He examines Virginia educational, moral, and social reforms; disfranchisement movements; racial and class politics; and the impact of the womans vote. And he records the growth of the Hampton Roads military-industrial complex, which Swanson brought about.

In Virginia, Swanson became a dominant political figure, and Ferrells study challenges previous interpretations of Virginia politics between 1892 and 1932 that pictured a powerful, reactionary Democratic Organization, directed by Thomas Staples Martin and his successor Harry Flood Byrd, Sr., defeating would-be progressive reformers. A forgotten Virginia emerges here, one that reveals the pervasive role of agrarians in shaping the Old Dominions politics and priorities.

Описание: As a paradigmatic modernist author, Virginia Woolf is celebrated for the ways her fiction illuminates modern and contemporary life. Woolf scholars have long debated how context – whether historical, cultural, or theoretical – is to be understood in relation to her work and how her work produces new insights into context. Drawing on an international field of leading and emergent specialists, this collection provides an authoritative resource for contemporary Woolf scholarship that explores the distinct and overlapping dimensions of her writings. Rather than survey existing scholarship, these essays extend Woolf studies in new directions by examining how the author is contextualised today. The collection also highlights connections between Woolf and key cultural, political and historical issues of the twentieth century such as avant-gardism in music and art, developments in journalism and the publishing industry, political struggles over race, gender and class and the bearings of colonialism, empire and war.

Описание: The fifteen stories in this volume include the only collection of short fiction Woolf published in her lifetime, the eight stories published as `Monday and Tuesday`, together with seven later stories. Without these bold and experimental forays into the short story she would never have become the great modernist novelist. Essential to her development as a novelist, these stories are among the most interesting and accomplished fictions she wrote.

Описание: The book explores the boundaries of laser crystal physics as it is routinely developed. This exploration may sometimes appear exotic but it often reveals promising fields for the future. The emphasis is on the relation between crystallographic structure and properties, high energy solid state lasers, optical behaviour of thin films, radiation and lattice defects in changing the ion oxidation state, as well as new theoretical approaches to potential laser materials. Further topics are the more classical aspects of optical spectroscopy of the rare earth ions and technological aspects of laser radiation. Various luminescent and phosphorescent mechanisms arising in inorganic crystalline and non-crystalline materials are featured.

Описание: Frederick Douglass recalled that slaves living along Chesapeake Bay longingly viewed sailing ships as "freedom's swift-winged angels." In 1813 those angels appeared in the bay as British warships coming to punish the Americans for declaring war on the empire. Over many nights, hundreds of slaves paddled out to the warships seeking protection for their families from the ravages of slavery. The runaways pressured the British admirals into becoming liberators. As guides, pilots, sailors, and marines, the former slaves used their intimate knowledge of the countryside to transform the war. They enabled the British to escalate their onshore attacks and to capture and burn Washington, D.C. Tidewater masters had long dreaded their slaves as "an internal enemy." By mobilizing that enemy, the war ignited the deepest fears of Chesapeake slaveholders. It also alienated Virginians from a national government that had neglected their defense. Instead they turned south, their interests aligning more and more with their section. In 1820 Thomas Jefferson observed of sectionalism: "Like a firebell in the night it] awakened and filled me with terror. I considered it at once the knell of the union." The notes of alarm in Jefferson's comment speak of the fear aroused by the recent crisis over slavery in his home state. His vision of a cataclysm to come proved prescient. Jefferson's startling observation registered a turn in the nation's course, a pivot from the national purpose of the founding toward the threat of disunion. Drawn from new sources, Alan Taylor's riveting narrative re-creates the events that inspired black Virginians, haunted slaveholders, and set the nation on a new and dangerous course.
