Описание: How did French people write about their own childhood and youth between the 1760s and the 1930s? Colin Heywood argues that this was a critical period, as generations moved from the hierarchical society of the Ancien Regime to a more fluid one produced by the revolutions of the period.

Описание: Est-ce l’harmonie des Sirenes dans le mythe d’Er qui s’inspire d’une doctrine remontant au pythagorisme ancien ou, inversement, est-ce la doctrine enigmatique rapportee par Jamblique et definissant l’harmonie des Sirenes comme etant la tetractys et l’oracle de Delphes, qui puise dans ce fameux passage de la Republique? Que signifie l’harmonie des Sirenes pour les Pythagoriciens et que signifie-t-elle pour Platon? Quel est son rapport avec le contexte philosophique de la Republique? Quel est le lien entre, d’une part, les themes pythagoricien et platonicien de l’harmonie des Sirenes et, d’autre part, le celebre chant de ces enchanteresses dans l’Odyssee? En examinant ces questions, Irini-Fotini Viltanioti offre, pour la premiere fois, une etude systematique de la formulation mythique de la fameuse theorie pythagoricienne dite de “l’harmonie des spheres” dans la Republique de Platon et dans le Mode de vie pythagoricien de Jamblique. En comblant un vide important dans la recherche actuelle, ce livre constitue une contribution decisive au domaine des etudes pythagoriciennes et platoniciennes.

Описание: Following the Brexit vote, this book offers a timely historical assessment of the different ways that Britain’s economic future has been imagined and how British ideas have influenced global debates about market relationships over the past two centuries. The 2016 EU referendum hinged to a substantial degree on how competing visions of the UK should engage with foreign markets, which in turn were shaped by competing understandings of Britain’s economic past. The book considers the following inter-related questions: - What roles does economic imagination play in shaping people’s behaviour and how far can insights from behavioural economics be applied to historical issues of market selection? - How useful is the concept of the ‘official mind’ for explaining the development of market relationships? - What has been the relationship between expanding communications and the development of markets? - How and why have certain regions or groupings (e.g. the Commonwealth) been ‘unimagined’- losing their status as promising markets for the future?

Focusing on Oregon in the 1910s and 1920s, Lawrence M. Lipin traces the shift in labor’s thinking about the use of natural resources. As he shows, workers began with the so-called producerist idea that resources and land, whether rural or urban, should be put to productive use rather than set aside as “elitist” nature preserves. But working class views changed as the automobile gave people access to national parks, forests, and beaches. Workers not only accepted the preservation of nature for recreation, they pressured state agencies to provide more outdoor opportunities. Fish and game commissioners responded with more intensive hatchery operations while wildlife advocates pushed for designated wilderness. In these and other ways, the labor movement’s shifting relationship to nature reveals the complicated development of wildlife policy and its own battles with consumerism.
An innovative blend of environmental and labor history, Workers and the Wild examines the battles over the proper use of nature in the early twentieth century.
Описание: With the establishment of the PRC in 1949, the Chinese Communist Party aimed to end capitalism. Karl Gerth argues that despite the socialist rhetoric of class warfare, Communist Party policies developed capitalism and expanded consumerism. This negated the goals of the Communist Revolution across the Mao era (1949-1976) down to the present.
Описание: This work examines the stages by which religious dissidents were persecuted by Tudor monarchs across the 16th century, and the means by which these dissidents counteracted authorities. During each stage of persecution, many dissidents were able to elude capture, counter-interrogate their inquisitors, use time in prison to write letters and prepare for death, and exploit their own executions to forge a final drama of suffering and redemption before a large, public audience. Enforcement was always dependent upon cooperation from the public and local officials, which made successful persecution uncertain at best. This text explores the details of this system of enforcement, and the means by which it was subverted. It also discusses larger questions concerning obedience and disobedience, tolerance and intolerance, and the dynamics of martyrdom.
