This book is a history of Britain, both ancient and modern, from when the land separated from mainland Europe, to the present day when its people separated from Europe. In the early summer of 2016, the author set out on a quest to discover his roots by driving around the whole coastline of Britain, by whatever road was closest to the ocean. What he found is a rich and beautiful land whose people have been shaped and influenced by both geography and the many invaders, who came either in force or in peace. Their diverse origins and the impact they made are still very evident in the Britain of today. Their influence is seen in language, accents and place names, but with the longest threads to the past being most notable in monarchy and religion. Ironically, the journey was during the time of the Brexit debate and vote, a significant event that will have a defining impact on Britain's future history. It is written with personal commentary on the present day but explores the challenges faced by its people, the power struggles that have constantly played out, the rise and fall of Kings and Queens, the influence of invaders and of missionaries. You will meet Kings and Queens, Vikings, Celtic priests, smugglers, the good and the bad and the ordinary people of Britain. You will get to explore the history of castles, cathedrals and many of the towns and villages that collectively surround the coast and bind Britain into the nation it is today.

Описание: Researchers have neglected the cultural history of education and as a result women`s educational works have been disparaged as narrowly didactic and redundant to the history of ideas. This book serves as a corrective to these biases by culturally contextualising the popular educational writings of leading women moralists and activists.
1790 saw the publication of Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France -- the definitive tract of modern conservatism as a political philosophy. Though women of the period wrote texts that clearly responded to and reacted against Burke's conception of English history and to the contemporary political events that continued to shape it, this conversation was largely ignored or dismissed, and much of it remains to be reconsidered today.
Examining the works of women writers from Jane Austen and Mary Wollstonecraft to the Strickland sisters and Mary Anne Everett Green, this book begins to recuperate that conversation and in doing so uncovers a more complete and nuanced picture of women's participation in the writing of history. Professor Mary Spongberg puts forward an alternate, feminized historiography of Britain that demonstrates how women writers' recourse to history caused them to become generically innovative and allowed them to participate in the political debates that framed the emergence of modern British historiography, and to push back against the Whig interpretation of history that predominated from 1790-1860.
Описание: First published in 2000, this collection of essays examines the extraordinary contribution of women playwrights, actors, translators, critics and managers who worked in British theatre during the romantic period. Leading scholars shed light on the role of women well known during their day but neglected for some 150 years.

Описание: The essays in this volume discuss the overlap between philosophical, aesthetic, and political concerns in the 1790s either in the work of individuals or in the transfer of cultural materials across national borders, which tended to entail adaptation and transformation. What emerges is a clearer understanding of the “fate” of the Enlightenment, its radicalization and its “overcoming” in aesthetic and political terms, and of the way in which political “paranoia”, generated by the fear of a spreading revolutionary radicalism, facilitated and influenced the cultural transfer of the “radical”. The collection will be of interest to scholars in French, German, English, and comparative studies working on the later 18th century or early 19th century. It is of particular interest to those working on the impact of the French Revolution, those engaged in reception studies, and those researching the interface between political and cultural activites. It is also of key interest to intellectual historians of this period, as well as general historians with an interest in modern conservatism and radicalism.
