In these histories people are important, even crucial, actors, but not the only ones. Offering a novel approach to the writing of Latin American history, this book brings nine thought-provoking chapters together with a historiographical introduction and critical afterword to centre nonhuman beings and things. The oscillating glare of the sun, the resourcefulness of insects, the tectonic instability of national territories, and the life-giving and intractable impassivity of rivers are some of the other-than-human agents driving history in the volume’s chapters. It problematises Latin American(ist) historiography’s tendency to frame ‘nature’ as a separate ontological domain that is only acted upon – conquered, manipulated, devastated – lacking the self-propelled dynamics capable of shaping the course of events. With broad regional and temporal coverage across Latin America and the Caribbean from the pre-colonial period to the present day, the book responds to environmental history’s call to write biophysical environments into the human past – a reconsideration of historical agency that, in this era of climate change, is needed now more than ever.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/cmpd3083_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240725 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249517 13 15 9781915249500 06 15 9781915249524 06 15 9781915249692 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:bfaeb46b-fd44-42f2-894d-e2b4e477aadc 03 01 01 urn:uuid:bfaeb46b-fd44-42f2-894d-e2b4e477aadc 15 9781912250417 06 10.14296/0520.9781912250417 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:bfaeb46b-fd44-42f2-894d-e2b4e477aadc 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/natural-resource-development-and-human-rights-in-latin-america/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0520.9781912250417.pdf 1 B01 Malayna Raftopoulos 2 B01 Radosław Powęska 01 eng 00 232 03 B2 Environmental Humanities 20 indigenous people 12 JPVH 93 JPVH 10 POL044000 10 BUS099000 20 environment 12 KCN 93 KCVG B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 20 human rights 20 extractivism 20 China 20 rainforest 20 healing plants 20 nature 20 trees 20 REDD+ 20 Human Rights Impact Assessments 20 violence 20 neogeography 20 urbanism 20 floods 20 landslides 20 Grand Canal 20 Nicaragua 20 decoloniality 20 colonialism 20 neocolonialism 20 eco-violence 20 ecology 20 natural environment 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Contemporary development debates in Latin America are marked by the pursuit of economic growth, technological improvement and poverty reduction, and are overshadowed by growing concerns about the preservation of the environment and human rights. This collection’s multidisciplinary perspective links local, national, regional and transnational levels of inquiry into the interaction of state and non-state actors involved in promoting or opposing natural resource development. Taking this approach allows the book to contemplate the complex panorama of competing visions, concepts and interests grounded in the mutual influences and interdependencies which shape the contemporary arena of social-environmental conflicts in the region.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0520.9781912250417_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200522 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912250011 06 15 9781912250417 06 15 9781912250103 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:8e7885e4-98fd-4000-92ee-f45fe1bcdb17 03 01 01 urn:uuid:8e7885e4-98fd-4000-92ee-f45fe1bcdb17 15 9781914477409 06 10.14296/420.9781914477409 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:8e7885e4-98fd-4000-92ee-f45fe1bcdb17 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/new-fragments-of-menanders-epitrepontes/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/420.9781914477409.pdf 1 B01 William D.

Charisios has left his young wife Pamphile over a suspected infidelity and moved in with his neighbour to drown his sorrows in wine and women, specifically, a spirited harp-girl called Habrotonon. The irate father-in-law will not tolerate this waste of a good dowry and demands of his daughter that she divorce. Bravely she holds out against her father's tirades and remains loyal to her husband.</p><p>A complex and masterly dramatic sequence ensures that by the end 'all's well that ends well' - and Menander has struck a blow for equality of the sexes, for understanding over arrogance and pride. Menander's subtle and, ultimately, good-natured treatment of marital crisis and family tensions, themes which, despite the ancient dress of strict metre and theatrical convention, are strikingly modern, not to say timeless.</p><p>A large portion of the <i>Epitrepontes</italic> was recovered from oblivion in 1905. Now, this startling collection of the new fragments, complete with papyrological readings, translation and commentary, brings together the scholarly work from separate fragments to date, including the author's own edition and interpretation and a revised text of the play in entirety included as an appendix.</p><p>The commentary aims to explain the printed text, to place Menander's language in the context of Athenian dramatic art and rhetoric, and to appreciate his subtle insights into the psychology of his characters, from the huffy father-in-law Smikrines to the 'little people' of the comedy, the slaves, each with their private agenda.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/420.9781914477409_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210601 2021 02 WORLD 06 15 9781914477409 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5a0c233d-24a2-41ce-9c00-338eacd1323a 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5a0c233d-24a2-41ce-9c00-338eacd1323a 15 9781908857835 06 10.14296/2104.9781908857835 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5a0c233d-24a2-41ce-9c00-338eacd1323a 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/new-world-objects-of-knowledge/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2104.9781908857835.pdf 1 B01 Mark Thurner 2 B01 Juan Pimentel 01 eng 00 301 03 93 AGA 10 ART015020 12 HBJK B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 20 New World 20 Inca 93 NHK 10 SCI100000 12 WN 93 1K 20 North America 93 2ACB 20 Central America 93 3M 20 Darwin 20 nature 20 artefacts 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>From the late fifteenth century to the present day, countless explorers, conquerors, and other agents of empire have laid siege to the New World, plundering and pilfering its most precious artefacts and treasures.

In her lifetime she was widely regarded as an authority on a broad range of social problems. Yet despite her early pre-eminence, and the remarkable success of the institutions which she helped to found, Hill fell from public favour in the twentieth century. This book provides a nuanced portrait of Hill and her work in a broader context of social change, reflecting recent scholarship on nineteenth-century society in general, and on philanthropy and preservation, and women’s role in them, in particular.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781909646582_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20171201 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646001 06 15 9781909646582 06 15 9781909646346 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:cb1dd0cb-ac9c-4771-b585-04b092d41f91 03 01 01 urn:uuid:cb1dd0cb-ac9c-4771-b585-04b092d41f91 15 9781909646568 06 10.14296/118.9781909646568 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:cb1dd0cb-ac9c-4771-b585-04b092d41f91 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/118.9781909646568.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/people-texts-and-artefacts/ 1 B01 David Bates 2 B01 Edoardo D'Angelo 3 B01 Elisabeth Houts 01 eng 00 295 03 12 HBLC1 10 HIS000000 B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 93 N 20 Normans 93 3K 20 medieval 20 Norman culture 20 conquest 20 Europe 20 medieval history 20 cultural exchange 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This volume is based on two international conferences held in 2013 and 2014 at Ariano Irpino, and at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. It contains essays by leading scholars in the field. Like the conferences, the volume seeks to enhance interdisciplinary and international dialogue between those who work on the Normans and their conquests in northern and southern Europe in an original way. It has as its central theme issues related to cultural transfer, treated as being of a pan-European kind across the societies that the Normans conquered and as occurring within the distinct societies of the northern and southern conquests. These issues are also shown to be an aspect of the interaction between the Normans and the peoples they subjugated, among whom many then settled.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/118.9781909646568_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20180131 2018 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646537 06 15 9781909646568 06 15 9781909646544 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:faba92ce-8327-4081-aa96-5789a641f60b 03 01 01 urn:uuid:faba92ce-8327-4081-aa96-5789a641f60b 15 9781905670680 06 10.14296/917.9781905670697 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:faba92ce-8327-4081-aa96-5789a641f60b 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781905670697.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/persuasive-language-in-ciceros-pro-milone-a-close-reading-and-commentary/ 1 A01 Lynn S.

Having come to the UK as a journalist, he started his academic career at the University of London in the aftermath of World War I (1919) and played an important role in the early days of the Institute of Historical Research. Known in this time for his re-interpretation of the sixteenth-century Dutch Revolt against the Habsburgs, that challenged existing historiographies of both Belgium and the Netherlands but was also linked to his political activism in favour of the Flemish movement in Belgium, Geyl left his stamp on the British perception of Low Countries history before moving back to his country of origin in 1935. Having spent World War II in German hostage camps, he famously coined the adage of history being ‘a discussion without end’ and re-engaged in public debates with British historians after the war, partly conducted on the airwaves of the BBC. A prolific writer and an early example of a ‘public intellectual’, Geyl remains one of the most influential thinkers on history of his time. The present volume re-examines Geyl’s relationship with Britain (and the Anglophone world at large) and sheds new light on his multifaceted work as a historian, journalist, <i>homme de lettres </italic>and political activist.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/vfsr7023_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220929 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249005 06 15 9781915249012 06 15 9781913002084 06 15 9781915249029 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:802820ed-a809-40a1-b4f1-0d6728949709 03 01 01 urn:uuid:802820ed-a809-40a1-b4f1-0d6728949709 15 9781914477904 06 10.63674/wujq4585 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:802820ed-a809-40a1-b4f1-0d6728949709 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/wujq4585.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/postcards-translators-and-esperanto-pioneers/ 1 A01 Guilherme Fians 01 ORCID 0000-0002-5223-3362 2 A01 Bernhard Struck 01 ORCID 0000-0003-0438-5633 3 A01 Claire Taylor 01 ORCID 0000-0002-3868-3754 01 eng 20 Esperanto 12 HBJD 10 HIS015000 B2 History 93 NHTB 12 CBX 93 CBX 20 globalisation 10 LAN009000 B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies 12 GTC 93 GTC 10 HIS037070 20 modern 12 1DBKS 20 internationalism 93 JBSF1 10 SOC032000 93 1DDU-GB-S 12 2ZXP 20 transnational 93 2ZXP 12 3JH 20 history 12 3JJ 93 3MN 20 European 93 3MP 20 Scotland 20 constructed languages 20 correspondence 20 exchange 20 networks 20 community-building 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The early twentieth century was a time when steamships, international postal services and the telephone were setting the pace of an early wave of globalisation in Europe. In this increasingly international scenario, what role did language play? To address the geopolitical problem of cross-border linguistic (mis)understanding, international auxiliary languages like Esperanto were created. But what happened to a constructed language when it travelled to different places?</p><p>This book tackles these questions by exploring the letters, postcards and activities of John Beveridge (1857–1943) and his family. This Scottish clergyman was a proficient Esperanto speaker, translator and co-founder of several Esperanto organisations. His long-standing engagement with the language left a unique archive that reveals how many Esperanto speakers exchanged letters across borders, produced literature for an international readership, organised congresses and used this language as an entry point into modernity and globalisation from their ‘marginal’ positions in the world.</p><p>By tracing this language-based form of grassroots internationalism, the book uncovers wide-reaching networks connecting a corner of Scotland with rural settings and villages in Finland, Bulgaria and Brazil. Ultimately, it asks: what do we learn about international communication and globalisation through the lens of Esperanto and postcards? Focusing on a constructed language and communication technologies that preceded the dominance of global English and social media, this book offers an alternative vantage point on the history of international communication.</p></p> 04 01 https://bibliocloudimages.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/400/supportingresources/375991/jpg_rgb_original.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20251113 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477881 13 15 9781914477874 06 15 9781914477904 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:e8d43213-c624-4735-a77a-928c33af71fa 03 01 01 urn:uuid:e8d43213-c624-4735-a77a-928c33af71fa 15 9781912702633 06 10.14296/202110.9781912702633 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:e8d43213-c624-4735-a77a-928c33af71fa 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202110.9781912702633.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/precarious-professionals/ 1 B01 Heidi Egginton 2 B01 Zoë Thomas 01 eng 00 368 03 12 HBLW 10 HIS015070 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 20 LGBT 93 NHTB 12 HBJD1 93 JBFA 10 POL029000 20 women 10 1.1.2.0.0.0.0 12 1DBK 20 equality 93 LAQG 93 1DDU 12 2AB 20 feminism 93 2ACB 12 3JJ 20 homophobia 93 3MP 20 misogyny 20 the Home Office 20 Britain 20 law 20 ballet 20 white-collar work 20 profession 20 advertising 20 League Secretariat 20 worker's rights 20 the Pay Gap 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>Precarious Professionals</italic> uncovers the inequalities and insecurities which lay at the heart of professional life in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Britain. The book challenges conventional categories in the history of work, exploring instead the everyday labour of maintaining a professional identity on the margins of the traditional professions. Situating new historical perspectives on gender at the forefront of their research, the contributors explore how professional cultures could not only define themselves against, but often flourished outside of, the confines of patriarchal codes and structures.</p><p>Putting the lives of precarious professionals in dialogue with master narratives in modern British history, the chapters in this volume re-evaluate the relationship between professional identity and social change. The collection offers twelve fascinating studies of women and men who held positions in art and science, high culture and popular journalism, private enterprise and public service between the 1840s and the 1960s. From pioneering women lawyers and scientists to ballet dancers, secretaries, historians, humanitarian relief workers, social researchers, and Cold War diplomats, the book reveals that precarity was a thread woven throughout the very fabric of modern professional life, with far-reaching implications for the study of power, privilege, and expertise. Together, these essays enrich our understanding of the histories and mysteries of professional identity and help us to reimagine the future of work in precarious times.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202110.9781912702633_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20211015 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702602 13 15 9781912702596 06 15 9781912702633 06 15 9781913002138 06 15 9781912702619 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5854e75e-c308-4b7d-84fd-a035d6426788 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5854e75e-c308-4b7d-84fd-a035d6426788 15 9781905670697 06 10.14296/917.9781905670680 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5854e75e-c308-4b7d-84fd-a035d6426788 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781905670680.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/profession-and-performance-aspects-of-oratory-in-the-greco-roman-world/ 1 B01 Christos Kremmydas 2 B01 Jonathan Powell 3 B01 Lene Rubinstein 01 eng 00 140 03 B2 Classical Studies ⇒ Classical Literature and Drama 10 DRA006000 12 HBLA1 93 NHC 20 rhetoric 93 DNS 12 DNS 20 oratory 20 ancient Greece 20 ancient Rome 20 performance 20 law 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This volume brings together six papers relating to oratory and orators in public <em>fora</italic> of Classical Greece and Rome.</p><p>Edwards and Bers explore aspects of oratorical delivery in the Athenian courts and Assembly, including the demands placed on orators by the physical settings.

It brings together some of the wider arguments concerning the nature of welfare during economically testing times, and navigates the rising bureaucracy inherent in the system, to produce a radical new history of the Old Poor Law in astonishing detail. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/npin8958_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220829 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477119 13 15 9781914477102 06 15 9781914477140 06 15 9781913002206 06 15 9781914477126 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:39fc5f04-6ff2-4a61-b088-482d5a293062 03 01 01 urn:uuid:39fc5f04-6ff2-4a61-b088-482d5a293062 15 9781908857811 06 10.14296/0420.9781908857811 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:39fc5f04-6ff2-4a61-b088-482d5a293062 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0420.9781908857811.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/provincialising-nature-multidisciplinary-approaches-to-the-politics-of-the-environment-in-latin-america/ 1 B01 Michela Coletta 2 B01 Malayna Raftopoulos 01 eng 00 218 03 B2 Environmental Humanities 12 JPSL 20 Latin America 93 PSAF 10 SCI030000 93 1KL 20 environmental crisis B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 20 nature 20 identity 20 climate change 20 politics 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Provincialising Nature: Multidisciplinary Approaches to the Politics of the Environment in Latin America offers a timely analysis of some of the crucial challenges, contradictions and promises within current environmental discourses and practices in the region.

Two interconnected analytical frameworks guide the discussions in the book: the relationship between nature, knowledge and identity and their role in understanding recent and current practices of climate change and environmental policy.

Chronicling the gay struggle for acceptance and liberation, this book demonstrates how the fight for representation was often waged secretly between the covers of books at a time when public spaces for queer identities were limited. The chapters provide an array of voices and histories – from the famous, Derek Jarman and Oscar Wilde, to the lesser-known and underappreciated John Wieners and Valerie Taylor. It includes first-hand accounts of seminal moments in queer history, including the birth of Hazard Press and the Defend Gay’s the Word Bookshop campaign in the 1980s.</p><p>The book demonstrates how the queer community could be brought together through shared literature. The works discussed show the imaginative and radical ways in which queer texts have fought against censorship and repression and could be used as a tool for political organisation and production. From the powerful community-wide demonstrations for Gay’s the Word during their battle with the British government, the mapping of Chicago’s queer spaces within Valerie Taylor’s pulp novels, or the anonymous but likely shared authorship of the 19th-century queer text Teleny. Queer publishing often involved a range of creative tactics to beat the censor, from self-publishing to anonymous authorship. The book also shows how collage and the repurposing of found image and text became a key queer publishing practice, from Derek Jarman’s vast creative repertoire to book artwork created by the Hazard Press.</p><p>A fascinating and poignant analysis of some key historic moments for queer lib in publishing and book history, this is an essential read for those interested in how LGBTQ people throughout modernity have used literature as an important forum for self-expression and self-actualisation when spaces and sites for queer expression were taboo.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2105.9781913002053_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210512 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781913002046 06 15 9781913002053 06 15 9781913002213 06 15 9781913002060 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:a23069cb-67b8-49a9-931c-80e4c2e97761 03 01 01 urn:uuid:a23069cb-67b8-49a9-931c-80e4c2e97761 15 9781913002015 06 10.14296/1218.9781913002015 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:a23069cb-67b8-49a9-931c-80e4c2e97761 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/radical-collections-re-examining-the-roots-of-collections-practices-and-information-professions/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1218.9781913002015.pdf 1 B01 Jordan Landes 2 B01 Richard Espley 01 eng 00 90 03 20 curation 10 EDU029060 12 GLC 93 GLM B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 12 GLH 93 GLH 10 LAN025040 20 stories 20 representation 20 diversity 20 politics 20 archives 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Do archivists ‘curate’ history?

From the fourth century onwards it suffered decline in economic terms. Yet its geographical position, its status as an imperial capital, and above all its role as a connecting point between East and West, ensured that it remained an intermittent attraction for early medieval kings and emperors throughout the period from the late fifth to the eleventh century. Ravenna’s story is all the more interesting because it was complicated and unpredictable: discontinuous and continuous, sometimes obscure, sometimes including bursts of energetic activity. Throughout the early medieval centuries its flame sometimes flared, sometimes flickered, but never went out.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781909646728_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170731 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646148 06 15 9781909646728 06 15 9781909646339 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:1a4b919f-df48-4949-b7df-bbe7331dead0 03 01 01 urn:uuid:1a4b919f-df48-4949-b7df-bbe7331dead0 15 9781915249425 06 10.14296/xisg9568 DG 002 New Historical Perspectives 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:1a4b919f-df48-4949-b7df-bbe7331dead0 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/xisg9568.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/xisg9568.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/reading-gender-and-identity-in-seventeenth-century-england/ 1 A01 Hannah Jeans 01 eng 12 HBLH 10 HIS015040 B2 History ⇒ Early Modern History 93 NHTB 20 women 12 HBTB 93 JBSF1 10 LIT025050 20 reading habits 10 1.1.2.2.0.0.0 93 1DDU-GB-E 12 2AB 20 literature 93 2ACB 20 early modern 93 3MG 20 gender norms 20 identity 20 genre 20 books 20 news 20 religious texts 20 romances 20 cook books 20 treatises 20 household records 20 annotation 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This ambitious and interdisciplinary book redraws the history of early modern Englishwomen’s reading, exploring the connections between gender, reading habits and genre throughout the seventeenth century. It challenges accepted historiographical narratives about reading that have privileged male experience and the impact of the Civil War, and highlights the multiplicity and complexity of women’s reading practices, focusing on the ways in which they used reading in constructing their gender identity. Reading was a gendered act in the early modern period; in reading certain genres, women were negotiating a range of gendered behavioural norms. From religious texts, romances and cookbooks, to news, scientific and medical treatises, and household records, this book draws on archival sources across a wide range of writing types to offer a more complete picture of women’s reading experiences, ultimately questioning the accepted notion of ‘the woman reader’ itself.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/xisg9568_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250410 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249418 13 15 9781915249401 06 15 9781915249425 06 15 9781913739119 06 15 9781915249432 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:3bedb9a9-658b-4184-9ad7-f7efe643cbf9 03 01 01 urn:uuid:3bedb9a9-658b-4184-9ad7-f7efe643cbf9 15 9781908857682 06 10.14296/kgqq6780 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:3bedb9a9-658b-4184-9ad7-f7efe643cbf9 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/kgqq6780.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/recasting-commodity-and-spectacle-in-the-indigenous-americas/ 1 B01 Helen Gilbert 2 B01 Charlotte Gleghorn 01 eng 12 ACBK 93 AGA 10 ART041000 20 indigenous B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 93 JBCC 12 JFC 20 Latin America 10 SOC002010 20 identity 93 JHM 12 JHM 10 SOC020000 20 belonging 20 performance 20 spectacle 20 representation 01 06 03 03 <p><p>Indigenous artists frequently voice concerns over the commodification of their cultures, a process acutely felt by those living with the consequences of colonialism. This timely book, which features color illustrations throughout, examines the ways in which contemporary indigenous peoples in different parts of the Americas have harnessed performance practices to resist imposed stereotypes and shape their own complex identities. Essays by leading academics and practitioners show the vibrancy of a wide array of indigenous arts and cultural events in the United States, Mexico, Peru, Bolivia, Canada, Nicaragua, Ecuador, and Belize. As well as analyzing performance idioms, the authors trace the circulation of creative products and practices as commodities, as cultural capital, and/or as heritage. Making reference to aesthetic forms, intellectual property, and political empowerment, these essays weigh the impact of music, festivities, film, photography, theater, and museum installations among diverse audiences and discuss ways in which spectacles of cultural difference are remodeled in the hands of indigenous practitioners.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/kgqq6780_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20140930 2014 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857088 06 15 9781908857682 University of London Press 09 99 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:85a7d250-2f5f-47e1-b7f0-d4fd8d7007d1 03 01 01 urn:uuid:85a7d250-2f5f-47e1-b7f0-d4fd8d7007d1 15 9781912250400 06 10.14296/0420.9781912250400 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:85a7d250-2f5f-47e1-b7f0-d4fd8d7007d1 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0420.9781912250400.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/reconciling-rwanda/ 1 A01 Jennifer Melvin 01 eng 00 232 03 B2 Human Rights 12 JPSL 93 JPSL 10 POL062000 20 Rwanda B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 genocide 12 JPVH 93 LBBR 10 POL035010 93 1HFGR 20 law 20 justice 20 human rights 20 atrocities 20 reconciliation 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>In July 1994, the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) set out to stabilise and secure Rwanda, a country decimated by genocide. This mandate was later extended to include the herculean task of promoting unity and reconciliation to a population torn apart by violence. More than two decades later, these goals appear to have been achieved. Beneath the veneer of reconciliation lies myriad programmes and legislation that do more than seek to unite the population - they keep the RPF in power. In Reconciling Rwanda: Unity, Nationality and State Control, Jennifer Melvin analyses the highly controversial RPF and its vision of reconciliation to determine who truly benefits from the construction of the new post-genocide Rwanda.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0420.9781912250400_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200501 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9780993110207 06 15 9781912250400 06 15 9781912250059 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:7f427c40-5278-4854-9acc-908b7fdf86fa 03 01 01 urn:uuid:7f427c40-5278-4854-9acc-908b7fdf86fa 15 9781908590947 06 10.63674/yrab7358 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:7f427c40-5278-4854-9acc-908b7fdf86fa 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/yrab7358.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/reframing-failure-in-digital-scholarship/ 1 B01 Anna-Maria Sichani 01 ORCID 0000-0001-6778-4610 2 B01 Michael Donnay 01 ORCID 0000-0002-7500-7915 01 eng 10 COM032000 B2 Digital Humanities 20 scholarship 93 UXA 10 EDU037000 20 failure 93 GPS 93 3MR 20 computational 20 digital humanities 20 interdisciplinary 20 research 20 collaboration 20 obsolescence 20 sustainability 20 innovation 20 technology 20 institutions 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Failure is ordinary.

Through a comparative analysis of the politics surrounding the welcome afforded to refugees, this book offers an original perspective on refugee hosting in Southern Africa. Using the cases of Zambia and South Africa, the book explores why some countries maintain encampment reception policies for refugees, and others use more liberal ‘free settlement’ approaches, whereby refugees are granted freedom of movement and permitted to settle in cities and towns. While state-based reception is frequently framed as one-off moments, such as registration, <em>Refugee Reception in Southern Africa</italic> examines reception as a complex and ongoing process of negotiations between refugees and state, with reception policies vital in shaping a refugee’s ability to settle and engage with local communities and labour markets.</p><p>With its new ‘refugee reception’ framework and in-depth case studies full of concrete examples, this book is a significant theoretical and methodological contribution to migration studies more broadly.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/wmpx9915_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240718 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908590756 13 15 9781908590749 06 15 9781908590763 06 15 9781912250622 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:f77f0fa2-674d-4586-8ff9-f3907287731a 03 01 01 urn:uuid:f77f0fa2-674d-4586-8ff9-f3907287731a 15 9781908857996 06 10.14296/2105.9781908857996 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:f77f0fa2-674d-4586-8ff9-f3907287731a 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/rethinking-past-and-present-in-cuba/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2105.9781908857996.pdf 1 B01 Antoni Kapcia 01 eng 00 250 03 20 Cuba 10 HIS024000 93 JBSL 12 JFSL4 B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 12 1KJC 93 1KJC 20 history 20 culture 20 politics 20 Latino studies 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This collection of essays and research articles has been designed, by its breadth of expertise and discipline, to pay suitable homage to the seminal influence and contribution made by the late Alistair Hennessy towards the development of Cuban studies.

It has been broadly perceived as an absurd confrontation, the echoes of which, despite the brevity of its duration, and some four decades on, resonate still not least in the lasting wounds that bear testimony yet to its underlying causes. </p><p>This book probes the reasons behind the conflict’s tragic occurrence and the processing of its consequences in and beyond the sovereign states that suffered and suffer still from the exacerbating of nationalist identities in the resolution of their differences and the consequent challenges to be addressed. Drawing on perspectives that bring together contributors from markedly differing backgrounds, whether national or disciplinary, this collection reinforces the spirit of critical questioning that historical and sociological research must ever value and pursue. Prejudices and preconceptions are acknowledged and confronted yet contextualised and revised through filters of new questions and answers which are not always anticipated or, for the stubbornly partisan, readily embraced.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1220.9781908857804_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210222 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857569 06 15 9781908857804 06 15 9781915249609 06 15 9781908857859 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:31413410-1c44-4a5f-936d-28051faa3df0 03 01 01 urn:uuid:31413410-1c44-4a5f-936d-28051faa3df0 15 9780992725723 06 10.14296/718.9780992725723 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:31413410-1c44-4a5f-936d-28051faa3df0 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/718.9780992725723.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/shakespeare-and-revision/ 1 A01 Stanley Wells 01 eng 00 29 03 93 DDA 12 DSG 10 LIT004120 B2 Literary Studies 20 theatre 10 DRA010000 12 DSBD 93 DSG 20 plays 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 editing 10 HIS015030 12 3JD 93 3MG 20 omissions 93 5PX-GB-S 20 additions 20 literature 20 Shakespeare 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This lecture was originally published by the Institute of English Studies, University of London in 1987.<break/><break/> The Hilda Hulme Memorial Lectures were established in 1985 following a donation from Mr Mohamed Aslam in memory of his wife, Dr Hilda Hulme.

But for what purpose and with what value?</p><p><em>Talking History</italic> provides a defence of the seminar as a central element in historians’ teaching, research and sense of community. Covering a range of the IHR’s long-running seminar series, the book presents the seminars as a local, national and international hub for scholarship that emerges from and is sustained by the ongoing learning practices of historians as scholars and people. It bears witness to a seminar culture of evolving, multifarious synergies between teaching, researching and learning, historiography and participation – intertextual, interpersonal, intergenerational and intercultural. Viewed as such, the seminars constitute a living tradition, stimulating and incorporating dynamic change over time to contribute not just to the development of historiography but to intellectual life more generally, often in conversation with major political events and cultural phenomena.</p><p>This original and significant book delivers fresh insight into the evolution of historical research and its role in wider society today.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/lbja4300_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240509 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249043 13 15 9781914477614 06 15 9781915249050 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:ec40850c-b59d-4383-8462-c475d2d978fa 03 01 01 urn:uuid:ec40850c-b59d-4383-8462-c475d2d978fa 15 9780854572779 06 10.14296/420.9780854572779 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:ec40850c-b59d-4383-8462-c475d2d978fa 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/television-drama-in-spain-and-latin-america/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/420.9780854572779.pdf 1 A01 Paul Julian Smith 01 eng 12 APT 93 ATJS B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 10 PER010090 93 1KL 10 FOR026000 93 2ADSL 10 5.0.0.0.0.0.0 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>Television Drama in Spain and Latin America </italic>addresses two major topics within current cultural, media, and television studies: the question of fictional genres and that of transnational circulation. While much research has been carried out on both TV formats and remakes in the English-speaking world, almost nothing has been published on the huge and dynamic Spanish-speaking sector. This book discusses and analyses series since 2000 from Spain (in both Spanish and Catalan), Mexico, Venezuela, and (to a lesser extent) the US, employing both empirical research on production and distribution and textual analysis of content. The three genres examined are horror, biographical series, and sports-themed dramas; the three examples of format remakes are of a period mystery (Spain, Mexico), a romantic comedy (Venezuela, US), and a historical epic (Catalonia, Spain).</p><p>Paul Julian Smith is Distinguished Professor at the Graduate Center, City University of New York.

Bennett unveils how one election transformed Britain’s electoral system and redefined party alliances for decades to come.</bold></p><p>The General Election of 15 November 1922 was a pivotal election in British political history. As parties adjusted to peacetime conditions and an electoral system changed forever by the enfranchisement of women and working-class men, the 1922 election stood as the first real test of party performance and engagement with voter priorities in a Britain fundamentally altered by the First World War. The result was a general election that would set national polling culture for the next century, and mark a significant step towards the decline of the Liberal Party and the emergence of a Conservative-Labour duopoly.</p><p>This book examines the way the 1922 election was fought, the performance of the parties and the operation of a semi-official, but undeclared, party pact between the Conservative and Coalition Liberal Parties to manage the outcome, as they emerged from the Lloyd George Coalition and attempted to shut the Labour Party out of power. Capturing the high and the low politics of the election, and making use of newly available archival collections and digitised resources, this concise and accessible volume shows how the 1922 election marked the birth of the modern British general election as we know it today.</p></p> 04 01 https://uolpress.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/9781914477713_cover-1-wpv_652x.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250918 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477713 13 15 9781914477706 06 15 9781914477737 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:c34bf09a-27a9-4e47-bb4f-8d816707150d 03 01 01 urn:uuid:c34bf09a-27a9-4e47-bb4f-8d816707150d 15 9781905670956 06 10.14296/121.9781905670956 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:c34bf09a-27a9-4e47-bb4f-8d816707150d 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/121.9781905670956.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-afterlife-of-apuleius/ 1 B01 F.

The aim of this collection of essays is to highlight a few major aspects of this afterlife, from the High Middle Ages to early Romanticism, in the fields of literature, linguistics and philology, within a wide geographical scope.</p><p>The volume gathers the proceedings of an international conference held in March 2016 at the Warburg Institute in London, in association with the Institute of Classical Studies. It includes both diachronic overviews and specific case-studies. A first series of papers focuses on <i>The Golden Ass</italic> and its historical and geographical diffusion, from High Medieval Europe to early modern Mexico. The oriental connections of the book are also taken into account. The second part of the book examines the textual and visual destiny of Psyche’s story from the Apuleian <i>fabula</italic> to allegorical retellings, in poetical or philosophical books and on stage. As the third series of essays indicates, the fortunes of the book led many ancient and early modern writers and translators to use it as a canonical model for reflections about the status of fiction. It also became, mostly around the beginning of the fifteenth century, a major linguistic and stylistic reference for lexicographers and neo-Latin writers : the last papers of the book deal with Renaissance polemics about ‘Apuleianism’ and the role of editors and commentators.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/121.9781905670956_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210128 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905670888 06 15 9781905670956 06 15 9781914477461 06 15 9781905670963 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:8a429243-5db0-4d13-b22c-3f3cfcd86dfd 03 01 01 urn:uuid:8a429243-5db0-4d13-b22c-3f3cfcd86dfd 15 9781911507079 06 10.14296/517.9781911507079 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:8a429243-5db0-4d13-b22c-3f3cfcd86dfd 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/electronic-evidence/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/517.9781911507079.pdf 1 B01 Stephen Mason 2 B01 Daniel Seng 01 eng 00 421 03 20 electronic evidence 12 LAS B2 Law 10 LAW061000 93 LND 20 technology 20 artificial intelligence 20 fingerprints 20 administrative law 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>In this updated edition of the well-established practitioner text, Stephen Mason and Daniel Seng have brought together a team of experts in the field to provide an exhaustive treatment of electronic evidence.

In doing so, it foregrounds the importance of emptiness as a productive prism through which to interrogate a variety of imperial, national, cultural and urban history. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781909646520_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20190902 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646490 06 15 9781909646520 06 15 9781909646506 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:ed04513c-46e2-42c2-8a17-a4a075e0580f 03 01 01 urn:uuid:ed04513c-46e2-42c2-8a17-a4a075e0580f 15 9780993110283 06 10.14296/818.9780993110283 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:ed04513c-46e2-42c2-8a17-a4a075e0580f 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/envisioning-global-lgbt-human-rights/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/818.9780993110283.epub 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/818.9780993110283.pdf 1 B01 Nancy Nicol 2 B01 Adrian Jjuuko 3 B01 Richard Lusimbo 4 B01 Nick Mulé 5 B01 Susan Ursel 6 B01 Amar Wahab 7 B01 Phyllis Waugh 01 eng 00 458 03 B2 Human Rights 93 JPVH 12 JPVH 20 LGBT 10 POL035010 B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 human rights 93 JBSF 12 JFSJ 20 colonialism 20 British Empire 20 resistance 20 homophobia 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>Envisioning Global LGBT Human Rights: (Neo)colonialism, Neoliberalism, Resistance and Hope</italic> is an outcome of a five-year international collaboration among partners that share a common legacy of British colonial laws that criminalise same-sex intimacy and gender identity/expression. The project sought to facilitate learning from each other and to create outcomes that would advance knowledge and social justice. The project was unique, combining research and writing with participatory documentary filmmaking. This visionary politics infuses the pages of the anthology. <break/> The chapters are bursting with invaluable first hand insights from leading activists at the forefront of some of the most fiercely fought battlegrounds of contemporary sexual politics in India, the Caribbean and Africa. As well, authors from Canada, Botswana and Kenya examine key turning points in the advancement of SOGI issues at the United Nations, and provide critical insights on LGBT asylum in Canada. Authors also speak to a need to reorient and decolonise queer studies, and turn a critical gaze northwards from the Global South. It is a book for activists and academics in a range of disciplines from postcolonial and sexualities studies to filmmaking, as well as for policy-makers and practitioners committed to envisioning, and working for, a better future.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/818.9780993110283_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20180913 2018 02 WORLD 13 15 9780993110238 06 15 9780993110283 06 15 9780993110290 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:1ffbe007-2b94-4f35-9ae9-b6a4ab5fc340 03 01 01 urn:uuid:1ffbe007-2b94-4f35-9ae9-b6a4ab5fc340 15 9781905670789 06 10.14296/917.9781905670789 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:1ffbe007-2b94-4f35-9ae9-b6a4ab5fc340 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781905670789.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/eros-and-the-polis-love-in-context/ 1 B01 Ed Sanders 01 eng 00 103 03 B2 AG 12 HBLA1 10 LIT004190 93 NHC 20 sexuality 93 DSC 12 DSC 20 gender 20 social convention 20 politics 20 ancient Greece 20 socio-political 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Arising out of a conference on ‘<em>Erôs</italic> in Ancient Greece’, the articles in this volume share a historicizing approach to the conventions and expectations of <em>erôs</italic> in the context of the <em>polis</italic>, in the Archaic and Classical periods of ancient Greece.</p><p>The articles focus on (post-Homeric) Archaic and Classical poetic genres – namely lyric poetry, tragedy, and comedy – and some philosophical texts by Plato, Xenophon, and Aristotle.</p><p>They pursue a variety of issues, including: the connection between homosexual <em>erôs</italic> and politics; sexual practices that fell outside societal norms (aristocratic homosexuality, chastity); the roles of <em>sôphrosynê</italic> (self-control) and <em>akrasia</italic> (incontinence) in erotic relationships; and the connection between <em>erôs</italic> and other socially important emotions such as <em>charis</italic>, <em>philia</italic>, and <em>storgê</italic>.</p><p>The exploration of such issues from a variety of standpoints, and through a range of texts, allows us to place <em>erôs </italic>as an emotion in its socio-political context.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781905670789_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20190930 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905670444 06 15 9781905670789 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:e7526cc7-2591-405e-8b3c-030791a35b41 03 01 01 urn:uuid:e7526cc7-2591-405e-8b3c-030791a35b41 15 9781912702701 06 10.14296/0620.9781912702701 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:e7526cc7-2591-405e-8b3c-030791a35b41 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0620.9781912702701.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/european-religious-cultures/ 1 B01 Miri Rubin 01 eng 00 168 03 12 HBJD B2 History ⇒ Religious History 93 NHD 10 REL015000 20 religion 20 culture 12 HR 93 QR 12 1D 93 1D 20 European history 20 pilgrimage 20 saints 20 monasteries 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><em>European Religious Cultures</italic> is a set of stimulating essays first written as offerings for Christopher Brooke on his eightieth birthday.

It assesses how socialist networks were influenced by relations with socialist parties and groups outside Europe, and how they navigated local, national and global politics. Collectively, the chapters explore four main areas: the relationship between the ideals of European cooperation and daily, routine and domestic politics; the shifting definitions of political elites and popular understandings of Europe, including the influence of people of African, Caribbean and Asian descent on the transformation of socialist thought, policies and practices in the European (ex-) imperial powers; the extent to which European socialists attempted to propose a postcolonial, postimperial agenda for Europe; and how European institutions were used, and with what results, by socialists and their contacts.</p><p>Reflecting on the successes and failures of transnational processes of socialisation, the role of cultural intermediaries and bridge-builders, and the reasons behind misunderstandings, failed projects and missed opportunities for peace and equality, the book examines how socialist politicians and activists conceived of Europe’s role in worldmaking in the transition out of conflict and empire. In doing so, the volume contributes to a better understanding of, and support for, cooperation across borders.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/vjit1721_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250116 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249715 13 15 9781915249708 06 15 9781915249739 06 15 9781915249722 06 15 9781915249746 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:91e63348-69b8-42b5-8b94-cc5e51337153 03 01 01 urn:uuid:91e63348-69b8-42b5-8b94-cc5e51337153 15 9781908590688 06 10.63674/ssgx3409 DG 002 New Historical Perspectives 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:91e63348-69b8-42b5-8b94-cc5e51337153 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/forging-fraternity-in-late-medieval-society/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/ssgx3409.pdf 1 A01 Rachael Harkes 01 ORCID 0000-0003-2175-2431 01 eng 20 guilds 12 HBJD1 10 HIS015020 B2 History 93 NHDJ 12 HRC 20 medieval 93 QRMP 10 REL108020 10 1.1.0.0.0.0.0 12 1DB 93 1DDU 20 Reformation 12 3H 93 3KLN 20 fraternity 20 community 20 urban 20 rural 20 politics 20 networks 20 nobility 20 religion 20 governance 20 pre-Enlightenment 20 Palmers’ Guild 20 Ludlow 20 mid-thirteenth century 20 membership 20 society 20 England 20 Wales 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><strong>The untold story of how a medieval guild united the worlds of commerce and religion and changed local life and international influence on the eve of the Reformation.</bold></p><p><em>Forging Fraternity in Late Medieval Society</italic> is an ambitious and innovative study of the social, political and religious histories of medieval England and Wales. Using the Palmers’ Guild of Ludlow as a prism, it sets out to consider the almost ubiquitous membership of religious guilds in both urban and rural society on the eve of the Reformation. With over 18,000 members recorded in the guild’s massive extant archive, drawn from across the social spectrum and spread throughout Wales, England, Iberia, Ireland and France, the Palmers offer a unique opportunity to investigate the interplay between institutions and individuals in the Middle Ages.</p><p>Why did thousands of men and women join this particular organization in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries? What influenced people’s decision to become a member, how can we reconstruct these decisions from surviving documents, and what do they reveal about the communities that made up late medieval society? By posing these questions, this book charts individual and collective experiences, reconstructing the life-stages, political circumstances, and social pressures incumbent on individuals as they engaged in a moral and fiscal commitment to a guild. Departing from traditional guild studies, <em>Forging Fraternity</italic> crosses conventional historiographical boundaries to reconceptualise guild membership as both a structure for and mirror of complex social relations and identities, demonstrating with ingenuity how medieval sources can be put to use in unconventional ways.</p></p> 04 01 https://bibliocloudimages.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/400/supportingresources/374309/jpg_rgb_original.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20251106 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908590671 13 15 9781908590664 06 15 9781908590688 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:d6b9bedb-ec69-4d50-bec2-54edc0dd24b3 03 01 01 urn:uuid:d6b9bedb-ec69-4d50-bec2-54edc0dd24b3 15 9781912702947 06 10.14296/202202.9781912702947 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:d6b9bedb-ec69-4d50-bec2-54edc0dd24b3 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/freedom-seekers/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202202.9781912702947.pdf 1 A01 Simon P.

Interrogating how emotional expectations are established as gendered, racialised and class-based notions, the volume explores the ways these expectations have been generated, stratified and maintained by institutions, societies, media and those with access to power.</p><p>The collection draws upon a diverse set of case studies to present a chronologically and geographically broad intervention. The authors identify and explore connections between the depiction of twentieth-century transnational feminists, settler colonies in southern Africa, post-unification Italy, Maoist China, the twentieth-century Soviet Union and the medicalized spaces of the British Raj. Contributions also move across time from notions of eighteenth-century British masculinity, through Victorian Britain and whiteness in settler colonialism, to the Liverpool docks of the 1990s and contemporary Russia. Collectively, the volume’s authors seek to understand how the normalisation of emotions as a range of gendered qualities forms the basis upon which notions of self, and connectedly, social identities are performed. As such, this is an important contribution to the history of emotions that addresses how gender and emotions are formed as co-constituents within dominant power structures, in different geographic and temporal spaces.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/cwfb4352_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20231130 2023 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249166 13 15 9781915249159 06 15 9781915249197 06 15 9781915249661 06 15 9781915249173 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:315be9cb-1692-44b5-8022-54714353e878 03 01 01 urn:uuid:315be9cb-1692-44b5-8022-54714353e878 15 9781909646858 06 10.14296/119.9781909646858 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:315be9cb-1692-44b5-8022-54714353e878 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/119.9781909646858.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/119.9781909646858.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/gender-in-medieval-places-spaces-and-thresholds/ 1 B01 Victoria Blud 2 B01 Diane Heath 3 B01 Einat Klafter 01 eng 00 283 03 20 gender 12 HBLC1 10 HIS015010 B2 History ⇒ Medieval History 93 NHDJ 12 3H 93 3KL 10 HIS015020 20 medieval history 10 1.0.0.0.0.0.0 20 space 20 spatial studies 20 place 20 women 20 domestic history 20 public history 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This collection addresses the concept of gender in the middle ages through the study of place and space, exploring how gender and space may be mutually constructive and how individuals and communities make and are made by the places and spaces they inhabit.

From <i>quickening</italic> through to <i>confinement, giving caudle, </italic>delivery and<i> lying-in, </italic>birth was once a complex ritual that involved entire communities. Drawing on an extensive and under-researched body of materials, such as letters, diaries and recipe books, this book offers critical new perspectives on the history of the family and community. It explores the rituals of childbirth, from birthing clothing to the foods traditionally eaten before and after birth, and also how a woman’s relationship with her family, husband, friends and neighbours changed during pregnancy and beyond. In this important and deeply moving study, we are invited on a detailed and emotive journey through motherhood in an age of immense intellectual and sociocultural change.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2204.9781914477072_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220413 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477065 13 15 9781914477058 06 15 9781914477072 06 15 9781908590879 06 15 9781914477089 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:6105d3ae-4faa-45b2-8263-cae0d036cc01 03 01 01 urn:uuid:6105d3ae-4faa-45b2-8263-cae0d036cc01 15 9781909646650 06 10.14296/517.9781909646650 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:6105d3ae-4faa-45b2-8263-cae0d036cc01 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/517.9781909646650.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/healthcare-in-ireland-and-britain-1850-1970-voluntary-regional-and-comparative-perspectives/ 1 B01 Donnacha Sean Lucey 2 B01 Virginia Crossman 01 eng 00 294 03 12 HBJD1 10 HIS015000 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 NHD 20 Public health 12 1DBK 93 1DDR 20 British healthcare system 10 HIS018000 12 1DBR 93 1DDU 20 Voluntary hospitals 20 Poor Law 20 Workhouses 20 Edwardian era 20 Irish hospitals 20 N.H.S. 20 Catholic Church 20 Nation -building 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This volume explores developments in health and social care in Ireland and Britain during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The central objectives are to highlight the role of voluntarism in healthcare, to examine healthcare in local and regional contexts, and to provide comparative perspectives. The collection is based on two interconnected and overlapping research themes: voluntarism and healthcare, and regionalism/localism and healthcare. It includes two synoptic overviews by leading authorities in the field, and ten case studies focusing on particular aspects of voluntary and/or regional healthcare in Ireland and Britain.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/517.9781909646650_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170119 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646025 06 15 9781909646650 06 15 9781909646322 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:dc3c4633-47c7-4952-9887-e9ca7c1ec586 03 01 01 urn:uuid:dc3c4633-47c7-4952-9887-e9ca7c1ec586 15 9781909646643 06 10.14296/517.9781909646643 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:dc3c4633-47c7-4952-9887-e9ca7c1ec586 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/517.9781909646643.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/heroic-chancellor-winston-churchill-and-the-university-of-bristol-1929-to-1965/ 1 A01 David Cannadine 01 eng 00 86 03 12 HBLW 10 HIS015000 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 N 20 Winston Churchill 12 BGH 20 Bristol 93 DNBH 93 3MP 20 Higher education 20 University Chancellor 20 Post-war Britain 20 Wartime Britain 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>"Not only was Churchill the most illustrious and the most distinguished Chancellor that the University of Bristol has ever had, but he was also in his prime, from the 1940s onwards, probably the most famous and the most distinguished chancellor of any university anywhere in the world." </p><p>David Cannadine</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/517.9781909646643_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170608 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646186 06 15 9781909646643 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:0f30bc70-79dd-4db6-a0cf-f5a61c837dff 03 01 01 urn:uuid:0f30bc70-79dd-4db6-a0cf-f5a61c837dff 15 9781912250134 06 10.14296/518.9781912250134 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:0f30bc70-79dd-4db6-a0cf-f5a61c837dff 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/human-rights-sexual-orientation-and-gender-identity-in-the-commonwealth/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/518.9781912250134.pdf 1 B01 Corinne Lennox 2 B01 Matthew Waites 01 eng 00 572 03 B2 Human Rights 93 JPVH 12 JPVH 20 LGBT 10 POL035010 B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 human rights 93 JBSF 12 JFSJ 10 SOC032000 12 1QFC 93 1QFC 20 gender identity 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 activism 93 5PT 20 reform 20 Commonwealth 20 British Empire 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Human rights in relation to sexual orientation and gender identity are at last reaching the heart of global debates. Yet 78 states worldwide continue to criminalise same-sex sexual behaviour, and due to the legal legacies of the British Empire, 42 of these – more than half – are in the Commonwealth of Nations.

Written by leading European experts from numerous fields, this theoretically sophisticated collection analyses a wide range of intellectual practices and disciplines. Avoiding narrow approaches to scholasticism, the book addresses ethics, history, heresy, law, inquisition, metaphysics, pastoral care, poetry, religious orders, saints’ cults and theology. A substantial introduction establishes an accessible historiographical context for the volume’s agenda, and a final afterword examines implications for future research.</p><p>The history of individuals and institutions in scholasticism has often been unhelpfully treated either as a simple intellectual genealogy of schools and doctrines, or a constitutional history of particular organizational forms. This volume advances our understanding by reconsidering these fields as a whole and addressing two large questions. What was the relationship between particular intellectuals and their wider networks? How did individuals alter their institutions, and how did those institutions shape their individuality?</p><p>This volume is of major importance to intellectual, religious and cultural historians as well as historians of knowledge and science. It will engage those working on individuals and institutions in the middle ages as well as in other periods. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/520.9781912702305_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200731 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702275 13 15 9781912702268 06 15 9781912702305 06 15 9781913002282 06 15 9781912702282 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:53aa205d-5898-4104-86f3-29a9bd55fc60 03 01 01 urn:uuid:53aa205d-5898-4104-86f3-29a9bd55fc60 15 9781908590633 06 10.14296/yypo7070 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:53aa205d-5898-4104-86f3-29a9bd55fc60 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/innovations-in-teaching-history/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/yypo7070.pdf 1 B01 Ruth Larsen 2 B01 Alice Marples 3 B01 Matthew McCormack 01 eng 12 HBA 10 HIS035000 B2 History ⇒ Modern History 93 NHA 20 pedagogical 12 3JF 10 HIS037050 20 historical studies 93 JNU 20 practical 10 PT010 93 YPJH 93 3ML 20 guide 93 4CT 20 teachers 20 strategies 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><strong>An essential teaching companion offering practical strategies for enhancing learning for all teachers of history in higher education.</bold></p><p>The study of the eighteenth century has been a growth area in university research and teaching in recent decades. Although widely taught in history departments, the eighteenth century also presents challenges, including new students’ unfamiliarity with the period, the theoretical and interdisciplinary nature of the critical writings, and extensive online source material requiring digital skills for its evaluation.</p><p>Focusing on pedagogical innovation and current developments in the discipline, this collection of essays reflects on how we teach the history of the long eighteenth century, exploring current subfields such as histories of material culture, the senses, gender, crime and empire. It presents practical case studies showcasing how novel teaching methods can be employed in the classroom that promote active learning and invite students to think critically about the nature of their discipline. Methods covered include decolonising the curriculum, digital history, transferable skills, engaging with objects, working in non-classroom settings and multisensory approaches.</p><p>Grounded in real academic practice, this is a valuable guide for all history educators, whether specialising in the eighteenth century or beyond.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/yypo7070_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240627 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908590602 13 15 9781908590619 06 15 9781908590633 06 15 9781908590626 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:deac4aff-d539-4a76-870a-e4cf8aa36da8 03 01 01 urn:uuid:deac4aff-d539-4a76-870a-e4cf8aa36da8 15 9781911507369 06 10.14296/grch4849 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:deac4aff-d539-4a76-870a-e4cf8aa36da8 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/grch4849.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/international-handbook-on-clinical-tax-education/ 1 B01 Amy Lawton 2 A01 Annette Morgan 3 A01 David Massey 4 A01 Donovan Castelyn 01 eng 12 L B2 Law 10 LAW059000 93 LNUP 20 tax clinics 10 LAW062000 20 legal aid 93 LNUY 20 tax law 20 taxpayers 20 tax system 20 clinical legal education 20 legal studies 20 pro bono representation 20 advocacy 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>While tax clinics have existed in the US since the 1970s, they are now being established throughout the world, with recent clinical developments in Australia, the UK and Ireland in particular.</p><p>Of interest to higher education professionals, the tax profession and policymakers, this practical handbook explores the benefits that a clinical tax education can have and equips readers with the tools needed to start a clinical tax project.

This collection illustrates the breadth of those developments, providing a sociolegal perspective on a range of topics across criminal, property, family, commercial, environmental and public law, and legal education. It examines the social, political and economic context of the decade to reveal how legal developments in the 1950s have much greater significance than has generally been acknowledged to date. Drawing on case studies from the Great London Smog in 1952, the treatment of women in the Wolfenden Report and divorce law reform, to the takeover battle for the Savoy Hotel in 1953, law on the radio and more, the chapters throw new light on current debates about the relationship between law and issues of justice, inclusion and equality in different spheres of activity.</p><p>Written for historians and legal specialists alike, this book explores the stories behind the laws in this neglected decade. In revealing the historical context, arguments and controversies raised at the time and the different perspectives of the parties involved, it offers a greater understanding of why we have the law we have now and of these issues as they continue to be played out in the early twenty-first century.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/yqyj7969_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20260122 2026 02 WORLD 13 15 9781911507543 13 15 9781911507536 06 15 9781911507567 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:7cd71216-ff39-4923-b213-2e17f9886b02 03 01 01 urn:uuid:7cd71216-ff39-4923-b213-2e17f9886b02 15 9781911507291 06 10.14296/ancx5218 DG 002 Reimagining Law and Justice 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:7cd71216-ff39-4923-b213-2e17f9886b02 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/ancx5218.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/law-humanities-and-the-covid-crisis/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/ancx5218.epub 1 B01 Carl F.

By focussing on praxis – the lived experiences, spiritual, and embodied practices of those engaged in social action – the book challenges the assumption that liberation theology had reached its twilight by the late 1970s. Indeed, it demonstrates that liberationist Christianity was more diverse and internally conflicted, more widely resonant outside ecclesial confines, and more interconnected over time, than often allowed.</p><p>The chapters provide new perspectives on liberationist engagements with, and influence on, ecclesiology, Participatory Action Research, architecture and urbanism, feminism, human rights, ecofeminist political theology, and more, from the 1960s to the present moment in Latin America. Drawing these threads together, the book invites us to reconsider liberation theology’s praxis in retrospect and the continuities and changes that reach into the present day.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/hflc8361_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250220 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249616 13 15 9781915249593 06 15 9781915249630 06 15 9781915249623 06 15 9781915249647 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:579ccda6-ca8d-4738-910b-e2d126d273b3 03 01 01 urn:uuid:579ccda6-ca8d-4738-910b-e2d126d273b3 15 9781909646445 06 10.14296/117.9771909646445 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:579ccda6-ca8d-4738-910b-e2d126d273b3 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/london-and-beyond-essays-in-honour-of-derek-keene/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9771909646445.pdf 1 B01 Matthew Davies 2 B01 James A.

Dedicated to the late Derek Keene (1942-2021), the forefather of urban history, this book helps us better understand the development, role and allure of the metropolis throughout history, from medieval times to the 20th century. The chapters offered posit the city as a centre for innovation and political might juxtaposed against a sprawling, diverse community in constant flux. Therein we visit the high and lows of city dwelling, from the migrant population and London poor, to the judges and continental merchants trading in ‘exotic’ goods. “An exemplary volume” (Urban History), this is not one to be missed.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9771909646445_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170117 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905165704 06 15 9781909646445 06 15 9781909646315 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:fd5a8a5e-01ba-423b-a75a-1652c57da046 03 01 01 urn:uuid:fd5a8a5e-01ba-423b-a75a-1652c57da046 15 9781909646889 06 10.14296/718.9781909646889 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:fd5a8a5e-01ba-423b-a75a-1652c57da046 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/718.9781909646889.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/magna-carta-history-context-and-influence/ 1 B01 Lawrence Goldman 01 eng 00 138 03 12 HB 10 HIS015000 B2 History ⇒ Medieval History 20 Magna Carta 93 NH 12 HBLC1 93 NHDJ 20 politics 20 American revolution 93 GTM 12 HBJ 12 1DBK 93 1DDU 20 Civil War 20 British history 20 American history 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This book examines the history and influence of Magna Carta in British and American history. In a series of essays written by notable British specialists, it considers the origins of the document in the political and religious contexts of the thirteenth century, the relevance of its principles to the seventeenth century disputes that led to the Civil War, the uses made of Magna Carta to justify the American Revolution, and its inspiration of the radical-democratic movement in Britain in the early nineteenth century. The introductory essay considers the celebration of Magna Carta's 800th anniversary in 2015 in relation to ceremonials and remembrance in Britain in general. Given as papers to a joint conference of British and Chinese historians in Beijing in 2015, these essays provide a clear and insightful overview of the origins and impact of a medieval document that has shaped the history of the world. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/718.9781909646889_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20180731 2018 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646872 06 15 9781909646889 06 15 9781909646896 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:fc72683e-dac3-4e11-9659-946103aa4c5c 03 01 01 urn:uuid:fc72683e-dac3-4e11-9659-946103aa4c5c 15 9781912250387 06 10.14296/920.9781912250387 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:fc72683e-dac3-4e11-9659-946103aa4c5c 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/920.9781912250387.epub 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/920.9781912250387.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/mapping-crisis/ 1 B01 Doug Specht 01 ORCID 0000-0001-6480-3732 01 eng 00 276 03 B2 Human Rights 20 maps 12 RGV 93 RGV 10 SOC015000 12 HBTQ 93 JBFG 20 mapping 10 SOC066000 20 data 12 JFFD 93 NHTQ 10 TEC048000 93 1A 20 crisis 93 3MR 20 cartography 20 humanitarian work 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The digital age has thrown questions of representation, participation and humanitarianism back to the fore, as machine learning, algorithms and big data centres take over the process of mapping the subjugated and subaltern. Since the rise of Google Earth in 2005, there has been an explosion in the use of mapping tools to quantify and assess the needs of those in crisis, including those affected by climate change and the wider neo-liberal agenda. Yet, while there has been a huge upsurge in the data produced around these issues, the representation of people remains questionable. Some have argued that representation has diminished in humanitarian crises as people are increasingly reduced to data points. In turn, this data has become ever more difficult to analyse without vast computing power, leading to a dependency on the old colonial powers to refine the data collected from people in crisis, before selling it back to them.</p><p>This book brings together critical perspectives on the role that mapping people, knowledges and data now plays in humanitarian work, both in cartographic terms and through data visualisations, and questions whether, as we map crises, it is the map itself that is in crisis. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/920.9781912250387_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200914 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912250332 06 15 9781912250387 06 15 9781912250561 06 15 9781912250370 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:335e1ffd-fa1d-4b8e-bb65-1f8773babb07 03 01 01 urn:uuid:335e1ffd-fa1d-4b8e-bb65-1f8773babb07 15 9780854572854 06 10.14296/wxvs7011 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:335e1ffd-fa1d-4b8e-bb65-1f8773babb07 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/wxvs7011.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/mapping-post-war-italian-literature/ 1 A01 Giulia Brecciaroli 01 eng 12 D 93 DSBH B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies 10 LIT000000 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>In the aftermath of the reconstruction period immediately after the Second World War, Italy experienced an unprecedented and unexpected phase of economic development, which transformed it from a traditionally agrarian and impoverished country into one of Europe’s most industrialized nations. The idea, treasured to this day by many Italians, of this period as a sort of ‘golden age’ has increasingly been called into question by historical research that has delved into the deeper, persistent contradictions of Italian society at the time. Mapping Post-War Italian Literature embraces the boom years and their legacy, exploring the long-lasting impact of post-war Italy’s urbanization and modernization on the imagination of Italian writers. It does so by looking at how socio-spatial transformations affecting the main industrial cities of the North – Milan and Turin – as well as the provinces (a space generally deemed ‘peripheral’) and the national landscape have been conceptualized in contemporary novels and travel accounts.

Eschewing traditional approaches to the 1832 Reform Act, it draws from a significant new archival discovery – the working papers of the boundary commission – and a range of innovative quantitative techniques to provide a major reassessment of why and how the 1832 Reform Act passed, its impact on reformed politics both at Westminster and in the constituencies, and its significance to the expansion of the modern British state.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/mpgh8387_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240919 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249258 13 15 9781914477393 06 15 9781915249265 06 15 9781914477751 06 15 9781915249272 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:98612de3-d0d0-4d5f-8fc4-3018f2695b85 03 01 01 urn:uuid:98612de3-d0d0-4d5f-8fc4-3018f2695b85 15 9781905670819 06 10.14296/1019.9781905670819 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:98612de3-d0d0-4d5f-8fc4-3018f2695b85 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1019.9781905670819.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/marathon-2500-years-proceedings-of-the-marathon-conference-2010-bics-supplement-124/ 1 B01 Christopher Carey 2 B01 Michael Edwards 01 eng 00 298 03 B2 AG 12 HBLA1 10 LCO003000 20 Marathon 93 NHC 20 ancient Greece 93 DSBB 12 DSBB 20 Athens 20 battle 20 Persian wars 20 history 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Some two and a half millennia ago, in the summer of 490 BC, a small army of 9,000 Athenians, supported only be a thousand troops from Plataea, faced and overcame the might of the Persian army of King Darius I on the plain of Marathon.<break/><break/>While this was only the beginning of the Persian Wars, and the Greeks as a while would face a far greater threat to their freedom a decade later, the victory at Marathon had untold effects on the morale, confidence, and self-esteem of the Athenians, who would commemorate their finest hour in art and literature for centuries to come.<break/><break/>This volume, which includes twenty-one papers originally presented at a colloquium hosted by the Faculty of Philology at the University of Peloponnese, Kalamata in 2010 to mark the 2,500th anniversary of the battle, is a celebration of Marathon and its reception from classical antiquity to the present era.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1019.9781905670819_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20191108 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905670529 06 15 9781905670819 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:9ef68faf-97fe-45d0-aed7-1398bf01b304 03 01 01 urn:uuid:9ef68faf-97fe-45d0-aed7-1398bf01b304 15 9781912702251 06 10.14296/1120.9781912702251 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:9ef68faf-97fe-45d0-aed7-1398bf01b304 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1120.9781912702251.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/masculinity-and-danger-on-the-eighteenth-century-grand-tour/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1120.9781912702251.pdf 1 A01 Sarah Goldsmith 01 eng 00 288 03 12 HBLL 10 HIS015050 B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 20 masculinity 93 NHD 20 danger 12 HBJD 93 NHT 10 TRV009000 12 1D 93 1D 20 Grand Tour 10 HIS037040 12 2AB 93 2ACB 10 HIS037050 20 travel 10 1.0.0.0.0.0.0 12 3JF 93 3MGQ 20 adulthood 12 3JH 93 3ML 20 Europe 93 6AG 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The Grand Tour was a journey to continental Europe undertaken by British nobility and wealthy landed gentry during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. As a rite of passage, the Tour also played an important role in the formation of contemporary notions of elite masculinity.</p><p>Examining letters, diaries and other records left by Grand Tourists, tutors and their families, this book demonstrates how the Tour was used to educate elite young men in a wide variety of skills, virtues and masculine behaviours that extended well beyond polite society. Sarah Goldsmith argues that dangerous experiences, in particular, were far more central to the Tour as a means of constructing Britain’s next generation of leaders than has previously been acknowledged. Influenced by aristocratic concepts of honour and cultures of military leadership, elites viewed experiences of danger and hardship as powerfully transformative and therefore as central to the process of constructing masculinity.</p><p>Far from viewing danger as a disruptive force, Grand Tourists willingly tackled a variety of social, geographical and physical perils, gambling their way through treacherous landscapes; scaling mountains, volcanoes and glaciers; and encountering war and disease. Through this innovative study of danger, Goldsmith offers a revision of eighteenth-century elite masculine culture and the critical role the Grand Tour played within this.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1120.9781912702251_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20201130 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702220 13 15 9781912702213 06 15 9781912702251 06 15 9781914477539 06 15 9781912702237 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5530fdee-ced7-4cd3-969b-c8cdf6e3a23c 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5530fdee-ced7-4cd3-969b-c8cdf6e3a23c 15 9781912702152 06 10.14296/1019.9781912702152 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5530fdee-ced7-4cd3-969b-c8cdf6e3a23c 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1019.9781912702152.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/medieval-londoners/ 1 B01 Elizabeth A.

The Handbook offers direction on how to establish and run student law clinics and sets out guidance on both the pedagogical and regulatory considerations involved in the delivery of clinical programmes. It also provides an introduction to the existing body of research and scholarship on Clinical Legal Education (CLE).</p><p>CLE has become an increasingly popular method of legal education in recent years. Despite the popularity of CLE, there is very little guidance available in England and Wales as to how clinics ought to be set up or how clinical programmes might best be delivered. Although the legal regulators have a statutory duty to improve access to justice, it is not always readily apparent how pro bono and CLE fit into a complex regulatory framework. This Handbook aims to address those gaps.</p><p>The <i>Handbook </italic>will be used by staff involved in running law clinics as a practical guide to establishing and running their programmes and can also be used as a teaching resource and recommended text on clinical programmes. It will also be a valuable resource for clinical legal education researchers who wish to engage in regulatory, pedagogic and legal service delivery research in this area.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/520.9781911507178_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200529 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781911507161 06 15 9781911507178 06 15 9781911507208 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:34d97e9c-f96d-4663-972b-9c408bc06a1f 03 01 01 urn:uuid:34d97e9c-f96d-4663-972b-9c408bc06a1f 15 9781914477218 06 10.14296/202112.9781914477218 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:34d97e9c-f96d-4663-972b-9c408bc06a1f 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-control-of-the-past/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202112.9781914477218.pdf 1 A01 Patrick Salmon 01 eng 00 118 03 12 HBAH 20 Herbert Butterfield 10 HIS016000 B2 History ⇒ Political History 93 NHAH 93 JBCC9 12 JNA 20 Nazi 10 POL010000 93 1DDU 20 collective memory 10 HIS015070 12 JNAM 10 1.1.2.0.0.0.0 12 1DBK 93 2ACB 20 World War 2 12 1QDB 93 3MPBLB 20 archive 12 2AB 93 3MP 20 GLAM 12 3JJP 93 3MRB 20 museum 20 Duke of Windsor 20 Hitler 20 Britain 20 colonial history 20 India 20 Germany 20 Ireland 20 Bletchley Park 20 suppressed history 20 forgotten history 20 war crimes 20 jingosim 20 national histories 20 National Trust 20 slavery 20 education 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Herbert Butterfield (1900–1979) was one of the earliest and strongest critics of what he saw as the British government’s attempts to control the past through the writing of so-called, ‘official histories’. His famous diatribe against the 'pitfalls' of government-mandated history first appeared in 1949, at a time when the British government was engaged in publishing official histories and diplomatic documents on an unprecedented scale following the Second World War. But why was Butterfield so hostile to official history, and why do his views still matter today?</p><p>Written by one of the few historians employed by the British government, this important book details how successive governments have applied a selective approach to the past in order to tell or <em>re-tell</italic> Britain’s national history, with implications for the future.</p><p>Providing a unique overview of the main trends of official history in Britain since the Second World War, the book details how Butterfield came to suspect that the British government was trying to suppress vital documents revealing the Duke of Windsor’s dealings with Nazi Germany. This seemed to confirm his long-held belief that all governments would seek to manipulate history if they could, and conceal the truth if they could not. At the beginning of the 21st century, official history is still being written and the book concludes with an insider’s perspective on the many issues it faces today– on freedom of information, social media and reengaging with our nation’s colonial legacy. Governments have recently been given many reminders that history matters, and it is Herbert Butterfield above all who reminds us that we must remain vigilant in monitoring how they respond to the challenge.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202112.9781914477218_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20211206 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477195 06 15 9781914477218 06 15 9781913002114 06 15 9781914477225 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:3a7e8f55-88da-4e6e-86f1-fd12b7c729e1 03 01 01 urn:uuid:3a7e8f55-88da-4e6e-86f1-fd12b7c729e1 15 9781912702749 06 10.14296/fsxl6641 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:3a7e8f55-88da-4e6e-86f1-fd12b7c729e1 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-creighton-century-1907-2007/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/fsxl6641.pdf 1 B01 David Bates 2 B01 Jennifer Wallis 3 B01 Jane Winters 01 eng 00 334 03 12 HBG 10 HIS016000 20 history B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 NHB 12 HBAH 20 historiography 93 NHAH 20 Creighton 93 GTB 20 University of London 20 lecture series 20 change 20 continuity 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>The Creighton Century, 1907–2007</italic> offers a selection of ten lectures from the first 100 years of the University of London’s prestigious Creighton Lecture series.

Beginning with King George V’s first Christmas broadcast, Buckingham Palace worked with the Church of England and the media to initiate a new phase in the House of Windsor’s approach to publicity. </p><p>This book also focuses on audience reception by exploring how British readers, listeners, and viewers made sense of royalty’s new media image. It argues that the monarchy’s deliberate elevation of a more informal and vulnerable family-centred image strengthened the emotional connections that members of the public forged with the royals, and that the tightening of these bonds had a unifying effect on national life in the unstable years during and either side of the Second World War. Crucially, The Family Firm also contends that the royal household’s media strategy after 1936 helped to restore public confidence in a Crown that was severely shaken by the abdication of King Edward VIII.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1019.9781909646957_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20191015 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646988 13 15 9781909646940 06 15 9781909646957 06 15 9781908590862 06 15 9781909646964 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5a81417c-fcdd-40df-bf89-46ed9f24ae41 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5a81417c-fcdd-40df-bf89-46ed9f24ae41 15 9781909646780 06 10.14296/fyax1274 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5a81417c-fcdd-40df-bf89-46ed9f24ae41 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/fyax1274.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-glasgow-sugar-aristocracy/ 1 A01 Stephen Mullen 01 eng 00 340 03 20 economy 12 HBTM 10 HIS015090 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 NHTM 12 HBTS 93 NHTS 10 POL011020 20 sugar 93 1DDU-GB-S 20 Atlantic trade 10 SOC054000 12 TRLT 12 1DBKS 93 1KJ 10 LAW066000 20 Scotland 12 1KJ 93 2ACB 20 British Empire 10 HIS037050 12 2AB 93 3ML 10 HIS037060 20 sea merchants 10 1.1.2.5.0.0.0 12 3JF 93 3MNB 12 3JH 10 4.1.0.0.0.0.0 93 6AG 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This important book assesses the size and nature of Caribbean slavery’s economic impact in British society. The Glasgow Sugar Aristocracy, a grouping of West India merchants and planters, became active before the emancipation of chattel slavery in the British West Indies in 1834. Many acquired nationally significant fortunes, and their investments percolated into the Scottish economy and wider society. At its core, the book traces the development of merchant capital and poses several interrelated questions during an era of rapid transformation, namely, what impact the private investments of West India merchants and colonial adventurers had on metropolitan society and the economy, as well as the wider effects of such commerce on industrial and agricultural development.</p><p>The book also examines the fortunes of temporary Scottish economic migrants who travelled to some of the wealthiest of the Caribbean islands, presenting the first large-scale survey of repatriated slavery fortunes via case studies of Scots in Jamaica, Grenada and Trinidad before emancipation in 1834. It therefore takes a new approach to illuminate the world of individuals who acquired West India fortunes and ultimately explores, in an Atlantic frame, the interconnections between the colonies and metropole in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/fyax1274_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20221110 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702336 13 15 9781909646773 06 15 9781909646780 06 15 9781908590657 06 15 9781909646933 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:4fe83974-86a2-4053-bf5b-2c2fd6183820 03 01 01 urn:uuid:4fe83974-86a2-4053-bf5b-2c2fd6183820 15 9781914477034 06 10.14296/202202.9781914477034 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:4fe83974-86a2-4053-bf5b-2c2fd6183820 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-margins-of-late-medieval-london-1430-1540/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202202.9781914477034.pdf 1 A01 Charlotte Berry 01 eng 00 320 03 12 HBLC1 10 HIS015020 B2 History ⇒ Medieval History 20 middle ages 93 NHDJ 12 HBLC 93 JBFC 20 marginality 10 POL002000 12 1DBKESL 20 capital city 93 JBSD 10 SOC045000 12 2AB 10 ARC010000 93 KCVS 20 poverty 12 3H 10 HIS015000 20 London 93 RGCU 10 1.1.2.2.0.1.0 93 1DDU-GB-ESLF 20 London poor 93 2ACB 20 begging 93 3KLW 20 refugees 93 6AG 20 medieval London 20 disease 20 prostitution 20 sewage 20 countryside 20 migrant 20 migration 20 workers 20 labour 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>The Margins of Late Medieval London</italic> is a powerful study of medieval London’s urban fringe. Seeking to unpack the complexity of urban life in the medieval age, this volume offers a detailed and novel approach to understanding London beyond its institutional structures. Using a combination of experimental digital, quantitative and qualitative methodologies, the volume casts new light on urban life at the level of the neighbourhood and considers the differences in economy, society and sociability which existed in different areas of a vibrant premodern city. It focuses on the dynamism and mobility that shaped city life, integrating the experiences of London’s poor and migrant communities and how they found their place within urban life. It describes how people found themselves marginalized in the city, and the strategies they would employ to mitigate that precarious position.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202202.9781914477034_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220215 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477027 13 15 9781914477010 06 15 9781914477034 06 15 9781911507444 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:a915c32f-b608-4021-9493-1fd12bfb347f 03 01 01 urn:uuid:a915c32f-b608-4021-9493-1fd12bfb347f 15 9781905670932 06 10.14296/121.9781905670932 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:a915c32f-b608-4021-9493-1fd12bfb347f 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/themes-in-plato-aristotle-and-hellenistic-philosophy/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/121.9781905670932.pdf 1 B01 Fiona Leigh 01 eng 00 262 03 B2 Classical Studies ⇒ Classical Philosophy 12 DB 10 PHI002000 20 philosophy 93 QDHA 93 3KB 20 Frege 12 HPC 12 3D 20 Stoics 20 Plato 20 ethics 20 Phaedo 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The present volume collects together papers based on the annual Keeling Memorial Lecture in ancient philosophy given at University College London, over 2011-18 (and one from 2004, previously unpublished). It contains contributions to theoretical as well as practical ancient philosophy, and in some cases, to both. Susanne Bobzien argues that Frege plagiarised the Stoics in respect of logic, Gail Fine compares uses of <i>doxa</italic> and <i>epistêmê</italic> in the <i>Phaedo</italic> to contemporary notions of belief and knowledge, David Sedley offers a novel interpretation of ‘safe’ causal explanation in the <i>Phaedo</italic>, and Gábor Betegh understands the ingredients of the soul in the <i>Timaeus</italic> as structuring thought and speech. Dorothea Frede presents new considerations against a ‘particularist’ reading of Aristotle’s ethics, Lesley Brown examines the role of agreement in establishing what is just and the correctness of names in Plato, and Gisela Striker gives an analysis of the role of Stoic therapy in the good life. A. A. Long details a new reading of divinity in the <i>Republic</italic> that reveals the Good as the essence of the divine, and Malcolm Schofield explores the tension between unfettered theoretical debate and the demand of determinacy in practical philosophy in Cicero. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/121.9781905670932_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210128 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905670901 06 15 9781905670932 06 15 9781905670949 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:057b84fd-8cad-4026-92ab-5d3d23b2b674 03 01 01 urn:uuid:057b84fd-8cad-4026-92ab-5d3d23b2b674 15 9780992725716 06 10.14296/518.9780992725716 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:057b84fd-8cad-4026-92ab-5d3d23b2b674 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/518.9780992725716.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-narrators-in-macbeth/ 1 A01 Barbara Hardy 01 eng 00 33 03 12 DSG 93 DSG 10 LIT013000 B2 Literary Studies 20 narrative 10 DRA010000 12 DSBD 93 DSBD 20 Shakespeare 12 2AB 93 2ACB 10 HIS037040 20 storytelling 12 3JD 93 3MG 20 play 93 5PX-GB-S 20 Macbeth 20 literature 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p> This lecture was originally published by the Institute of English Studies, University of London in 1986.<break/><break/> The Hilda Hulme Memorial Lectures were established in 1985 following a donation from Mr Mohamed Aslam in memory of his wife, Dr Hilda Hulme.

First instituted for John Dryden in 1668, the laureateship developed from an honorific into a functionary office with a settled position in court (c.1689–1715), and was bestowed upon Robert Southey in 1813, whose tenure eventually transformed the office. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this book examines the office’s institutional changes and public reception, the mechanics of each laureate’s appointment, and the works produced by the laureates before and after their appointments. It argues that the laureateship played a key part in some of the most vital trends in eighteenth-century culture.</p><p>The conclusion is arrived at by employing a new research paradigm that it calls the conceptual geography of culture. It shows that Britons routinely used spatial concepts to understand culture throughout the period, which became increasingly abstract over time. As part of this, the court evolved from a concrete space in London to an abstract space capable of hosting the entire British public. The laureateship was a dynamic office positioned at the interface of court and public, evolving in line with its audiences. An important intervention in eighteenth-century historiography, this book presents a nuanced understanding of eighteenth-century culture and society, in which the laureateship exemplified the enduring centrality of the court to the British conceptual geography of culture. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/sner2422_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220831 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477300 13 15 9781914477294 06 15 9781914477324 06 15 9781913002091 06 15 9781914477331 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:564cdbd2-6241-4249-9ec1-0ee495ef2687 03 01 01 urn:uuid:564cdbd2-6241-4249-9ec1-0ee495ef2687 15 9781912702985 06 10.14296/2111.9781912702985 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:564cdbd2-6241-4249-9ec1-0ee495ef2687 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-politics-of-womens-suffrage/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2111.9781912702985.pdf 1 B01 Alexandra Hughes-Johnson 01 ORCID 0000-0001-6632-4196 2 B01 Lyndsey Jenkins 01 eng 00 422 03 12 HBLL 10 HIS058000 B2 History ⇒ Political History 93 NHTB 20 women's suffrage 93 JBSF1 12 JFSJ1 10 POL003000 20 politics 20 activism 93 JPHF 12 JPVH1 10 POL052000 12 3JJ 93 JPVH 10 POL004000 20 women's history 93 1A 20 grassroots 93 3MP 20 change 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>From 1832 to the present day, from the countryside in Wales to the Comintern in Moscow, from America to Finland and Ireland to Australia, from the girls’ school to the stage, women’s suffrage was the most significant challenge to the constitution since 1832, seeking not only to settle demands for inclusion and justice but to expand and redefine definitions of citizenship. This collection advances ongoing debates within suffrage history whilst also drawing on a range of new sources, different intellectual techniques and methodological approaches, which challenge established interpretations. </p><p>With its focus on politics and political activism in its broadest sense, this collection makes a timely and substantial contribution to understanding the meaning of politics and political activism across the UK (and indeed, across the world) in this period, particularly as defined and experienced by women at the grassroots. This collection is a reminder of the ways in which women have often encountered and battled a hostile political climate, but pushed forward with determination, skill, tenacity and optimism: resonating with the renewed interest in women’s history and feminist politics today. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2111.9781912702985_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20211101 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702961 13 15 9781912702954 06 15 9781912702985 06 15 9781913002121 06 15 9781912702992 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5b213aa4-92c5-4408-83b0-545763237c4d 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5b213aa4-92c5-4408-83b0-545763237c4d 15 9781911507321 06 10.14296/zbwc8919 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5b213aa4-92c5-4408-83b0-545763237c4d 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-signature-in-law/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/zbwc8919.pdf 1 A01 Stephen Mason 01 eng 00 122 03 93 LAFC 12 LAFC B2 Law 10 LAW103000 20 signature 20 authentication 10 LAW060000 93 LAZ 20 facsimile transmission 20 common law 20 adapting 20 technological developments 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This book explores the judicial development of the concept of the signature from the thirteenth century to the age of the facsimile transmission. It puts the concept of the signature into a broad legal context to set out the purposes that can be attributed to a signature, and to explain the functions a signature is capable of performing. Drawing on cases from common law jurisdictions across the world, the book demonstrates that judges expanded the meaning of a signature as technologies developed and were used in unanticipated ways.</p><p>Following an overview of the methods used to demonstrate proof of intent and authentication, the book considers the judicial response to the array of variations in the form that manuscript signatures have been subject over the past two hundred years, from initials, partial signatures and fingerprints, to rubber stamps and typewriting. Past judicial decision-making not only demonstrates the flexibility of the form a signature can take, but also confirms that judges had the flexibility of mind to accept the first forms of electronic signature (telex, facsimile transmission) as merely one further development without the aid of special legislation.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/zbwc8919_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220801 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781911507338 06 15 9781911507321 06 15 9781911507413 06 15 9781911507314 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:924cd0ff-1a66-4eb3-9b34-69e71d514fb3 03 01 01 urn:uuid:924cd0ff-1a66-4eb3-9b34-69e71d514fb3 15 9781908857989 06 10.14296/gljm4371 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:924cd0ff-1a66-4eb3-9b34-69e71d514fb3 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-social-and-political-life-of-latin-american-infrastructures/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/gljm4371.pdf 1 B01 Jonathan Alderman 01 ORCID 0000-0002-6928-2849 2 B01 Geoff Goodwin 01 eng 00 280 03 20 infrastructure 12 JP 93 JP B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 10 SOC008050 12 JFSL4 20 Latin America 20 colonialism 20 state 20 citizenship 20 resistance 20 protest 20 capitalism 20 urban development 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>From houses to roads, infrastructures offer a unique lens through which to explore social and political change. Serving as an important conduit between states and citizens, infrastructures provide governments with a powerful tool to mould subjects and control populations. Yet, at the same time they also give individuals, communities, and movements a platform to challenge the state and forge alternative forms of citizenship and politics. Infrastructures therefore shape social and political relations in unexpected ways and never dutifully follow the scripts of politicians, bureaucrats, and engineers. </p><p>Latin America provides fertile terrain to explore these issues. The region has been subject to extensive foreign intervention for centuries and much of its infrastructure has primarily been constructed to benefit colonial and imperial powers. Yet Latin America has also seen widespread resistance to colonial-capitalist expansion, and infrastructures have been central to these diverse struggles. Drawing on recent empirical research, this cross-disciplinary book demonstrates the value of analysing social and political change through infrastructure. The authors explore a diverse range of Latin American infrastructures, from a sparkling new tram network in Ecuador to a crumbling old nuclear plant in Cuba. Building on the empirical chapters, the editors demonstrate the value of conceptualising infrastructure as a relational and experimental process. In addition to making a novel contribution to global infrastructure debates, the volume offers important new insights into Latin American history, society, and politics.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/gljm4371_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20221005 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857958 06 15 9781908857989 06 15 9781915249548 06 15 9781908857972 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:2ee074f0-5ef0-4cbd-ab0a-9f96a451c882 03 01 01 urn:uuid:2ee074f0-5ef0-4cbd-ab0a-9f96a451c882 15 9781912250486 06 10.14296/202110.9781912250486 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:2ee074f0-5ef0-4cbd-ab0a-9f96a451c882 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202110.9781912250486.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/the-terms-of-our-surrender/ 1 A01 Elizabeth Cassell 01 eng 00 360 03 B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 Innu 12 JFSL9 93 JPN 10 SOC062000 20 indigenous people 93 JPVH 12 JPVH 10 POL035010 20 Canada 93 KCVG 10 LAW094000 12 LBBP 93 JPFA 12 KCN 20 Labrador 10 LAW107000 93 1KBC 20 First Nations 10 LAW036000 12 LNKJ 93 2ACB 12 ACBK 20 land grab 10 LAW110000 12 1KBC 93 3MR 20 ecology 10 LAW047000 12 2AB 93 3MP 10 4.0.2.0.0.0.0 20 land protector 12 3JM 93 5PB 20 human rights 12 3JJ 20 land defender 20 settler violence 20 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples 20 Truth and Reconciliation Commission 20 James Bay & Northern Quebec Agreement 20 Comprehensive Land Claims Process 20 oil 20 extraction 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Based on extensive fieldwork and oral history, <i>The Terms of Our Surrender</italic> is a powerful critical appraisal of unceded indigenous land ownership in eastern Canada. Set against an ethnographic, historical and legal framework, the book traces the myriad ways the Canadian state has successfully evaded the 1763 Royal Proclamation that guaranteed First Nations people a right to their land and way of life. </p><p>Focusing on the Innu of Quebec and Labrador, whose land has been taken for resource extraction and development, the book strips back the fiduciary duty to its origins, challenging the inroads which have been made on the nature and extent of indigenous land tenure—arguing for preservation of land ownership and positioning First Nations people as natural land defenders amidst a devastating climate crisis. It offers a voice to the Innu people, detailing the spirituality practices, culture and values that make it impossible for them to willingly cede their land.</p><p>The text is intended to bridge the gap in knowledge between legal practitioners and those working at the intersections of human rights, social work and public policy. The book offers a potent template for how we can use the law to fight back against the indignities suffered by all indigenous peoples.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202110.9781912250486_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20211001 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912250455 06 15 9781912250486 06 15 9781913002145 06 15 9781912250462 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:0ae5c98c-3737-4689-93e8-206e04cd48b5 03 01 01 urn:uuid:0ae5c98c-3737-4689-93e8-206e04cd48b5 15 9781912702039 06 10.14296/919.9781912702039 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:0ae5c98c-3737-4689-93e8-206e04cd48b5 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781912702039.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/thomas-frederick-tout-1855-1929/ 1 B01 Joel T.

The son of an unsuccessful publican, he was described at his Oxford scholarship exam as ‘uncouth and untidy’; however he went on to publish hundreds of books throughout his distinguished career with a legacy that extended well beyond the academy. Tout pioneered the use of archival research, welcomed women into academia and augmented the University of Manchester’s growing reputation for pioneering research.</p><p>This book presents the first full assessment of Tout’s life and work, from his early career at Lampeter, to his work in Manchester and his wide-ranging service to the study of history. Selected essays take a fresh and critical look at Tout’s own historical writing and discuss how his research shaped, and continues to shape, our understanding of the middle ages, particularly the fourteenth century. The book concludes with a personal reflection on Tout by his grandson, Tom Sharp.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781912702039_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20190902 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646995 06 15 9781912702039 06 15 9781912702022 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:f1498318-7a5f-4c60-9a00-61a48766ee68 03 01 01 urn:uuid:f1498318-7a5f-4c60-9a00-61a48766ee68 15 9781912250424 06 10.14296/620.9781912250424 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:f1498318-7a5f-4c60-9a00-61a48766ee68 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/620.9781912250424.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/thou-shalt-forget-indigenous-sovereignty-resistance-and-the-production-of-cultural-oblivion-in-canada/ 1 A01 Pierrot Ross-Tremblay 01 eng 00 312 03 20 communities B2 Human Rights 93 JBSL11 12 JFSL9 10 SOC062000 B2 Commonwealth Studies 12 HBTQ 20 minority 93 NHTQ 10 POL045000 93 1KBC-CA-QP 12 1KBCQ 20 colonialism 10 HIS037030 12 2AB 93 2ACBR 10 4.0.2.0.11.0.0 20 indigenous people 12 2ADF 93 2ADFQ 20 territory 12 3J 93 3M 93 5PB 93 6AG 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Following a decade-long research project, this devastating book examines colonial state imperatives to oppress indigenous peoples and history from mainstream national narratives.

She was there to testify in the apartheid State’s case against eleven Soweto school student activists, on trial for sedition. She confirmed her name as Mary Masabata Loate. Loate would live with the consequences of this decision to talk for the rest of her short life.</p><p>Who spoke about the liberation struggle whilst it was ongoing? When did they speak and how? And what effects does the gendered history of speech and silence within anti-apartheid politics continue to have upon our knowledge of the past? Arguing that she is emblematic of the way gendered narratives of the struggle have been made, this book listens for the voice and silence of Masabata Loate and her contemporaries within political trials; newspapers; photography; human rights reportage; creative fiction, drama, poetry and song; autobiography and memoir; and oral histories. The result is an unconventional biography that sees this young woman as a shadow within the story of South Africa’s anti-apartheid liberation struggle.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/rync2520_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250320 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249456 13 15 9781915249449 06 15 9781915249463 06 15 9781915249999 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:c5668531-5208-4ac3-9b8f-fc7d3727d72e 03 01 01 urn:uuid:c5668531-5208-4ac3-9b8f-fc7d3727d72e 15 9781915249142 06 10.63674/cxiv5434 DG 002 New Historical Perspectives 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:c5668531-5208-4ac3-9b8f-fc7d3727d72e 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/cxiv5434.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/waterscapes-reservoirs-environment-and-identity-in-modern-england-and-wales/ 1 A01 Andrew McTominey 01 eng 12 HBTB 10 HIS054000 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 NHTB 20 waterworks 12 HBTP 10 HIS015060 93 NHTP 20 reservoirs 12 1DBK 93 1DDU 10 HIS015070 20 water industry 10 1.1.2.0.0.0.0 12 3JH 93 3MNQ-GB-V 20 water management 12 3JJ 93 3MP 20 rural 20 urban 20 landscapes 20 environment 20 England 20 Wales 20 culture 20 leisure 20 nineteenth century 20 twentieth century 20 historical geography 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><strong>How did reservoirs alter the countryside and city life? The answer is a riveting story of water and identity in modern Britain.</bold></p><p>The building of reservoirs in England and Wales was key to urban growth across the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, with the management of waterworks projects closely tied to the social and economic fortunes of rural areas, as well as the treatment of urban populations. Drawing on methods from environmental history, cultural history and historical geography, this book explores the multiple and long-term impacts of reservoir construction and management in rural England and Wales from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. It examines how reservoirs transformed the rural environment, the management of the urban-rural hinterland, the development of cultural landscapes, the expansion of novel leisure activities, and the social impact on local communities.</p><p>Incorporating case studies from Leeds’s Washburn Valley, Liverpool’s Vyrnwy Reservoir and Birmingham’s Elan Reservoir, amongst others, the book’s comparative approach highlights commonalities and differences in waterworks management across the country, thereby transforming our understanding of the national water industry during this period, contemporary attitudes to the environment, and the identities – civic, gender and professional – that were intertwined with these waterscapes.</p></p> 04 01 https://bibliocloudimages.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/400/supportingresources/349793/jpg_rgb_original.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250828 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249111 13 15 9781915249104 06 15 9781915249142 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5f81f2e6-00d3-4ef4-b5b8-efde850e4db3 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5f81f2e6-00d3-4ef4-b5b8-efde850e4db3 15 9780992725730 06 10.14296/818.9780992725730 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5f81f2e6-00d3-4ef4-b5b8-efde850e4db3 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/818.9780992725730.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/ways-into-shakespeares-sonnets/ 1 A01 Helen Vendler 01 eng 00 29 03 12 DSC 93 DSC 10 LIT014000 B2 Literary Studies 20 Shakespeare 12 DSBD 93 DSBD 10 LIT004120 20 poetry 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 genre 10 HIS037040 12 3JD 93 3MG 20 form 93 5PX-GB-S 20 structure 20 sonnets 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This lecture was originally published by the Institute of English Studies, University of London in 1990.<break/><break/> The Hilda Hulme Memorial Lectures were established in 1985 following a donation from Mr Mohamed Aslam in memory of his wife, Dr Hilda Hulme.

They developed a political critique, but are above all distinctive for their overwhelming emphasis on culture and the symbolic. In particular, reading and writing had a uniquely prestigious status for West German protesters, who produced an extraordinary textual culture ranging from graffiti and flyers to agit-prop poetry and autobiographical prose. By turns witty, provocative, reflective and offensive, the avantgarde roots of anti-authoritarianism are as palpable in their texts as their debt to high literature. But due to this culture’s (apparently) anti-literary tone, it has often remained illegible to traditional criticism. This volume presents close readings and analyses of emblematic examples of texts, some forgotten, others better known, embedding them in historical, cultural, theoretical and aesthetic context, and illuminating representative moments and preoccupations in anti-authoritarian culture, from the Vietnam War to the Nazi past, to dirt and hygiene. They outline an anti-authoritarian poetics and uncover some of the texts’ latent content, revealing often hidden tensions and contradictions, above all in relation to the German past and questions of authority.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0420.9780854572762_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200416 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9780854572519 06 15 9780854572762 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:75904af1-a72f-4361-9e4e-deac1d7ee7ee 03 01 01 urn:uuid:75904af1-a72f-4361-9e4e-deac1d7ee7ee 15 9781911507192 06 10.14296/202201.9781911507192 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:75904af1-a72f-4361-9e4e-deac1d7ee7ee 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202201.9781911507192.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/achieving-access-to-justice-in-a-business-and-human-rights-context/ 1 A01 Virginie Rouas 01 eng 00 360 03 20 Access to justice B2 Law 10 LAW034000 93 LBBM5 12 LBBP 20 corporate accountability B2 Human Rights 12 KCN 93 LBG 10 POL044000 12 1D 93 1D 20 Europe 10 HIS037080 10 1.0.0.0.0.0.0 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 France 12 3JM 93 3MR 20 Netherlands 93 6AG 20 human rights 20 business and human rights 20 human rights due diligence 20 civil-law countries 20 European law 20 law 20 MNE 20 multi-national enterprises 20 abuse 20 big business 20 oil spill 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>Achieving Access to Justice in a Business and Human Rights Context</italic> explores the interplay between access to justice and business and human rights- a growing area of international human rights law- in European civil-law countries.</p><p>Multinational enterprises (MNEs) can contribute to economic prosperity and social development in the countries where they operate. At the same time, their activities may directly or indirectly cause harm to humans and to the environment. However, MNEs are rarely held accountable for their involvement in human rights abuses and environmental damage. In recent years, activists have challenged corporate impunity by introducing innovative claims seeking to hold parent companies directly liable for the harm caused by their group’s activities. They have also strategically used this type of litigation to trigger corporate accountability reforms at international, regional, and national levels. Using national litigation experiences as a starting point and focusing on European civil-law countries, the book evaluates the extent to which litigation against MNEs has been effective in achieving access to justice and corporate accountability. It also considers whether ongoing regulatory developments, such as the adoption of mandatory human rights due diligence norms and the negotiations for a business and human rights treaty, can contribute to the realisation of access to justice and corporate accountability in the future.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/202201.9781911507192_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20220114 2022 02 WORLD 13 15 9781911507185 06 15 9781911507192 06 15 9781911507420 06 15 9781911507277 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:248d4199-dd4a-4ed1-a57c-f6bb77cdb0a7 03 01 01 urn:uuid:248d4199-dd4a-4ed1-a57c-f6bb77cdb0a7 15 9781912702787 06 10.14296/0920.9781912702787 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:248d4199-dd4a-4ed1-a57c-f6bb77cdb0a7 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0920.9781912702787.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/administering-the-empire-1801-1968/ 1 A01 Mandy Banton 01 eng 00 444 03 20 Colonial administration 12 HB 10 HIS030000 93 N B2 Reference 20 British empire 12 GBC 93 GBC B2 History 10 POL045000 12 HBTQ 20 London 93 NHTQ 20 Colonial Office 20 Commonwealth 20 British Government Departments 20 National Archives 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><i>Administering the Empire, 1801-1968</italic> is an indispensable introduction to British colonial rule during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Ideas of adulthood are currently under intense scrutiny, as individuals increasingly reach midlife without necessarily acquiring the 'traditional' markers of maturity. Yet this volume shows that this is not a uniquely turbulent period, and it does not represent the overturning of norms that were previously settled and unquestioned. Expectations for adults have altered over time, just as other age-categories such as childhood, adolescence and old age have been shaped by their cultural and social context.</p><p>In historicising adulthood, this collection is the first to employ adulthood as a category of historical analysis, arguing that consideration of age is crucial for all scholarship that addresses power and inequality. Collectively, the authors explore four key ideas: adulthood as both burden and benefit; adulthood as a relational category; collective versus individual definitions of adulthood; and adulthood as a static definition.</p><p>The book also engages with the intersectional identities of gender, race, class, sexuality and disability, and how these affect understandings of adulthood: who gets to be an adult, and who decides?</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/tpsq9748_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20241128 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908590831 13 15 9781908590824 06 15 9781908590848 06 15 9781915249845 06 15 9781908590855 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:829de4ea-8dbb-4e41-bd54-fa57624530d6 03 01 01 urn:uuid:829de4ea-8dbb-4e41-bd54-fa57624530d6 15 9781909646483 06 10.14296/117.9771909646483 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:829de4ea-8dbb-4e41-bd54-fa57624530d6 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9771909646483.epub 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9771909646483.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/a-history-of-the-french-in-london/ 1 B01 Debra Kelly 2 B01 Martyn Cornick 01 eng 00 488 03 20 French émigrés 12 HB 10 HIS010020 B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 93 NHD 20 French exiles 20 London 20 cultural exchange 20 French cuisine 20 French Catholics 20 Huguenots 20 Commune 20 Charles de Gaulle 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This book examines, for the first time, the history of the social, cultural, political and economic presence of the French in London, and explores the multiple ways in which this presence has contributed to the life of the city. The capital has often provided a place of refuge, from the Huguenots in the 17th century, through the period of the French Revolution, to various exile communities during the 19th century, and on to the Free French in the Second World War.It also considers the generation of French citizens who settled in post-war London, and goes on to provide insights into the contemporary French presence by assessing the motives and lives of French people seeking new opportunities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It analyses the impact that the French have had historically, and continue to have, on London life in the arts, gastronomy, business, industry and education, manifest in diverse places and institutions from the religious to the political via the educational, to the commercial and creative industries.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9771909646483_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170119 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905165865 06 15 9781909646483 06 15 9781905165872 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5b2dcba0-e7e4-4e84-abfc-8db4c9c84d33 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5b2dcba0-e7e4-4e84-abfc-8db4c9c84d33 15 9781908857927 06 10.14296/2109.9781908857927 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5b2dcba0-e7e4-4e84-abfc-8db4c9c84d33 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/a-horizon-of-impossibilities/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2109.9781908857927.pdf 1 B01 Katerina Hatzikidi 2 B01 Eduardo Dullo 01 eng 00 220 03 12 JP 93 JP B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 10 POL057000 20 Populism 12 JPFM 93 JPFQ 20 Latin American politics 10 POL042020 93 1KLSB 12 1KLSB 20 Brazil 20 far-right 20 2018 20 Bolsonaro 20 conservatism 20 Trump 20 authoritarianism 20 democracy 20 elections 20 protest 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The 2018 presidential election result in Brazil surprised and shocked many.

Pointing to the continuities and disruptions in the course of those years, the analyses offered are an invaluable guide to unpacking and understanding the limits of Brazilian democracy, including what has already come to pass, but also what is yet to come.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2109.9781908857927_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210915 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857897 06 15 9781908857927 06 15 9781908590954 06 15 9781908857910 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:36e7322b-a0c0-4d9b-aa2f-25b437e8d7a0 03 01 01 urn:uuid:36e7322b-a0c0-4d9b-aa2f-25b437e8d7a0 15 9781912250356 06 10.14296/1220.9781912250356 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:36e7322b-a0c0-4d9b-aa2f-25b437e8d7a0 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1220.9781912250356.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1220.9781912250356.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/a-matter-of-trust/ 1 B01 Anne Thurston 01 eng 00 300 03 B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 data 93 GTP 12 J 10 SOC042000 10 COM021030 20 humanitarian work B2 Human Rights 93 KCM 93 1A 10 3.0.0.0.0.0.0 20 United Nations 93 1H 20 statistics 20 infographics 20 data collection 20 corruption 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals initiative has the potential to set the direction for a future world that works for everyone. Approved by 193 United Nations member countries in September 2016 to help guide global and national development policies in the period to 2030, the 17 goals build on the successes of the Millennium Development Goals, but also include new priority areas, such as climate change, economic inequality, innovation, sustainable consumption, peace and justice. Assessed against common agreed targets and indicators, the goals should facilitate inter-governmental cooperation and the development of regional and even global development strategies. </p><p>However, each goal presents considerable challenges in terms of collecting and analysing relevant data and producing the statistics needed to measure progress. Most governments in lower resourced countries simply do not yet have the systems and controls in place to produce high quality, reliable data and statistics, and it is questionable whether the quality and integrity of the available information is adequate to support meaningful decisions and set direction for the future.</p><p>There are substantial implications: where progress cannot be measured accurately because of inadequate or flawed statistics, the result can be misguided decisions, doubts about achievement of the goals and significant wasted resources. Getting statistics ‘right’ depends upon the quality and integrity of the data used to produce them and on the quality of the processes for collecting, manipulating and analysing the data. Without a documentary records as evidence of how the data were gathered and analysed or how statistics were produced and disseminated, it is not possible to confirm that the statistics are complete, accurate and relevant. </p><p>Various global organisations do recognise the importance of high quality data and statistics for measuring the SDG indicators reliably, but there has been little attention to the role of records in providing the evidence needed to trust the data and statistics. There is, moreover, a lack of awareness that digital information simply will not survive without policies and procedures to manage and preserve it through time. As a result, digital data, statistics and records are being lost regularly on a large scale, particularly in lower resource countries, where the structures needed to protect and preserve them are not yet in place. </p><p>This book explores, through a series of case studies, the substantial challenges for assembling reliable data and statistics to address pressing development challenges, particularly in Africa. Hopefully, by highlighting the enormous potential value of creating and using high quality data, statistics and records as an interconnected resource and describing how this can be achieved, the book will contribute to defining meaningful and realistic global and national development policies in the critical period to 2030. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/1220.9781912250356_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20201201 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912250349 06 15 9781912250356 06 15 9781911507475 06 15 9781912250431 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5298aea0-cc2f-4fe1-b820-0fd4150e3632 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5298aea0-cc2f-4fe1-b820-0fd4150e3632 15 9781914477454 06 10.14296/vfdc4362 DG 002 Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplements 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5298aea0-cc2f-4fe1-b820-0fd4150e3632 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/vfdc4362.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/ancient-athens-and-modern-ideology/ 1 A01 Mohammad Nafissi 01 eng 00 325 03 20 Ancient Athens B2 Classical Studies ⇒ Classical Philosophy 12 HBJD 10 HIS010000 93 NHD 20 Classical Political Economy 12 HBLA 10 HIS002010 93 NHC 93 1QBAG 12 1QDAG 20 Marxism 20 Max Weber 20 Carl Menger 20 Sozialpolitik 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>For over a century the foundations of Athenian political economy have been debated by scholarly camps broadly described as primitivist/substantivist, modernist and Marxist and involving political economists, sociologists and anthropologists as well as historians and classicists.<break/><break/><em>Ancient Athens and modern ideology</italic> demonstrates the dialectic of intellectual and substantive history and offers a consensual resolution to the debate by examining the interplay of values, theories and evidence in the contributions of Max Weber (1864-1920), Karl Polanyi (1886-1964) and Moses Finley (1912-86), widely recognised as successive champions of the primitivist cause.

In the West, the driving catalyst for the phenomenon was anti-communism. While much has been written on the post-war American red scare commonly known as McCarthyism, the domestic British response to the ‘red menace’ during the early Cold War has until now received little attention. <i>Anti-Communism in Britain During the Early Cold War </italic>is the first book to examine how British Cold War anti-communism transpired and manifested as McCarthyism raged across the Atlantic. </p><p>Drawing from a wealth of archival material, this book demonstrates that while policymakers and politicians in Britain sought to differentiate their anti-communist initiatives from the ‘witch hunt hysteria’ occurring in the United States, they were often keen to conduct – albeit less publicly – their own hunts as well. Through analysing how domestic anti-communism exhibited itself in state policies, political rhetoric, party politics and the trade union movement, it argues that an overreaction to the communist threat occurred. In striking detail, this book describes a nation at war with a specific political ideology and its willingness to use a variety of measures to disrupt or eradicate its influence. </p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/giub4814_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20230413 2023 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477355 13 15 9781914477348 06 15 9781914477386 06 15 9781915249494 06 15 9781914477362 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5f35c02f-69d9-44cd-9b95-5ff9eff603f1 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5f35c02f-69d9-44cd-9b95-5ff9eff603f1 15 9781908857842 06 10.14296/0520.9781908857842 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5f35c02f-69d9-44cd-9b95-5ff9eff603f1 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/a-return-to-the-village-community-ethnographies-and-the-study-of-andean-culture-in-retrospective/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0520.9781908857842.pdf 1 B01 Francisco Ferreira 2 B01 Billie Jean Isbell 01 eng 00 328 03 20 Anthropology 93 JHMC 12 JHMC B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 10 SOC002010 20 Communities 93 JBCC6 12 JHBT 10 SOC062000 20 Andean Culture 93 JBSL11 12 JFSL9 10 SOC015000 93 1KL 12 1KLSX 20 Fieldwork 20 Ethnohistory 20 Indigenous Studies 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This edited volume brings together several scholars who have produced outstanding ethnographies of Andean communities, mostly in Peru but also in neighbouring countries. These ethnographies were published between the 1970s and 2000s, following different theoretical and thematic approaches, and they often transcended the boundaries of case studies to become important reference works on key aspects of Andean culture: for example, the symbolism and ritual uses of coca in the case of Catherine J. Allen; agricultural rituals and internal social divisions in the case of Peter Gose; social organisation and kinship in the case of Billie Jean Isbell; the use of khipus and concepts of literacy in the case of Frank Salomon; and the management and ritual dimensions of water and irrigation in the case of Ricardo Valderrama and Carmen Escalante.</p><p>In their chapters the authors revisit their original works in the light of contemporary anthropology, focusing on different academic and personal aspects of their ethnographies. For example, they explain how they chose the communities they worked in; the personal relations they established there during fieldwork; the kind of links they have maintained; and how these communities have changed over time. They also review their original methodological and theoretical approaches and findings, reassessing their validity and explaining how their views have evolved or changed since they originally conducted their fieldwork and published their studies.</p><p>This book also offers a review of the evolution and role of community ethnographies in the context of Andean anthropology. These ethnographies had a significant influence between the 1940s and 1980s, when they could be roughly divided – following Olivia Harris – between ‘long-termist’ and ‘short-termist’ approaches, depending on predominant focuses on historical continuities or social change respectively. However, by the 1990s these works came to be widely considered as too limited and subjective in the context of wider academic changes, such as the emergence of postmodern trends, and reflective and literary turns in anthropology. Overall, the book aims to reflect on this evolution of community ethnographies in the Andes, and on their contribution to the study of Andean culture.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0520.9781908857842_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200529 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857248 06 15 9781908857842 06 15 9781908857255 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:5f056bda-71b4-4c4b-bff5-58d30630a2c1 03 01 01 urn:uuid:5f056bda-71b4-4c4b-bff5-58d30630a2c1 15 9781915249227 06 10.63674/hyzm1338 DG 002 New Historical Perspectives 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:5f056bda-71b4-4c4b-bff5-58d30630a2c1 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/atlantic-isles-travel-and-identity-in-the-british-and-irish-west-1880-1940/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/hyzm1338.pdf 1 A01 Gareth Roddy 01 eng 00 288 03 12 HBTB 10 HIS054000 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 93 NHTB 20 political separatism 20 First World War 12 HBJD1 10 HIS015060 93 JPFN 93 1DDU 20 Cornwall 10 HIS015070 12 JPFN 10 1.1.0.0.0.0.0 12 1DB 93 1DDR 20 Isle of Skye 10 1.1.1.0.0.0.0 12 1DBR 93 3MNQ 20 north-west Wales 12 3JJC 20 west Connacht 20 historiographical 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p><strong>From remote islands to sunken lands, Gareth Roddy traces how travel writing and tourism shaped the cultural and political imagination of the British and Irish West between 1880 and 1940.</bold></p><p>The west has long gripped the imagination. In <em>Atlantic Isles</italic>, Gareth Roddy examines the cultural and political prominence of the ‘westward gaze’, which flourished in late-nineteenth century Britain and Ireland. From Cornish cliffs and Welsh mountains to Hebridean islands and the Connemara highlands, the west was an imagined geography that transcended the national territories of these isles. In the west, geologists uncovered ancient layers of rock, ethnologists described older racial ‘types’, philologists looked for the survival of Celtic languages, and antiquarians and archaeologists marvelled at megalithic monuments at the Atlantic coastline.</p><p>The book draws on wide-ranging contemporary sources, including works of geology, philology, ethnology, history, geography, archaeology, folklore, literature, sociology and an extensive collection of travel writing that popularised western landscapes among readers and tourists who explored the increasingly accessible west by road, rail, and steamer. <em>Atlantic Isles</italic> reveals that western landscapes were especially powerful spaces of modern enchantment, where stories of sunken lands and mythical islands produced a sense of mystery and wonder in a supposedly disenchanted world. The significance of western landscapes for national identities is well known, but this book demonstrates that the west was also central to debates about Britishness and to the bold attempt to construct a narrative of multinational union that claimed deep historical roots at a time when the subject of Home Rule periodically dominated political debate.</p></p> 04 01 https://bibliocloudimages.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/400/supportingresources/371636/jpg_rgb_original.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20251030 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249210 13 15 9781915249203 06 15 9781915249227 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:b690b4c1-0f51-4d0c-9bc5-1ef608292a92 03 01 01 urn:uuid:b690b4c1-0f51-4d0c-9bc5-1ef608292a92 15 9781912250394 06 10.14296/420.9781912250394 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:b690b4c1-0f51-4d0c-9bc5-1ef608292a92 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/420.9781912250394.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/a-world-you-do-not-know/ 1 A01 Colin Samson 01 eng 00 284 03 20 colonial history B2 Human Rights 93 JHM 12 JHM 10 SOC062000 B2 Commonwealth Studies 20 indigenous 93 JBCC 12 JFC 10 POL038000 10 4.0.2.0.0.0.0 20 colonisation 93 JBSL11 12 JFSL9 12 1KBC 93 1KBC 20 Innu 93 2JNCG 20 Quebec 93 5HCT 20 Canada 20 US 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>A World You Do Not Know explores the wilful ignorance demonstrated by North America’s settlers in establishing their societies on lands already occupied by indigenous nations. Using the Innu of Labrador-Quebec as one powerful contemporary example, Colin Samson shows how the processes of displacement and assimilation today resemble those of the 19th century as the state and corporations scramble for Innu lands. While nation building, capitalism and industrialisation are shown to have undermined indigenous peoples’ wellbeing, the values that guide societies like the Innu are very much alive.

Yet the Grenfell Tower fire was a disaster foretold – the culmination of successive decades of deregulation, corporate greed and institutional failure to learn from the lessons of past multiple-fatality fires. By advocating a historical approach spanning the twentieth century, <em>Before Grenfell</italic> deepens our contemporary understanding of the events surrounding the disaster and reveals how past decisions taken by governments and industry bodies created the conditions under which the fire occurred. Drawing upon unexplored archives as well as extensive use of published records, Shane Ewen’s book traces the underlying causes of the fire through more than four decades of deregulation of fire precautions, scientific governance and building regulations by successive governments in thrall to the ideology of neoliberalism. In drawing upon several previous, and often forgotten, multiple-fatality fires, the book sheds light on the historic failures of policymakers to heed the lessons of the past in protecting vulnerable communities, arguing that good policymaking necessitates learning <em>with</italic> history as well as learning <em>from</italic> history.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/rkft3410_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20230720 2023 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477256 06 15 9781914477263 06 15 9781914477553 06 15 9781914477287 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:0fe904f7-3712-4e18-8fea-0ba66ae3e7a6 03 01 01 urn:uuid:0fe904f7-3712-4e18-8fea-0ba66ae3e7a6 15 9781913739041 06 10.14296/ufnt1799 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:0fe904f7-3712-4e18-8fea-0ba66ae3e7a6 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/ufnt1799.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/books-readers-and-libraries-in-fiction/ 1 B01 Karen Attar 01 ORCID 0000-0002-0898-808X 2 B01 Andrew Nash 01 ORCID 0000-0003-4925-7627 01 eng 12 DSK 93 DSK 20 english studies 10 LIT007000 B2 Literary Studies 93 DSA 12 DSA 20 gender 10 LIT024000 93 1DDU 12 2AB 20 genre 93 2ACB 12 3J 20 library history 93 3M 20 reception theory 20 intratextuality 20 intertextuality 20 reading 20 materiality 20 novel 20 text 20 poetry 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>It is easy to find books and libraries within fiction from the earliest times onwards in works for all age groups, in canonical literature and in books that form part of popular culture. From <em>Don Quixote</italic> to Louisa M. Alcott’s March girls and Terry Pratchett’s Unseen University wizards, the reading material of fictional personae is part of their characterisation; we are often reading readers. This volume breaks new ground in offering a chronological range of essays exploring the depiction of books, libraries and reading specifically in fiction from the medieval period to the present. Through detailed case studies from primarily British fiction that address common themes such as gender, genre and the relation between reading and writing itself, the collection examines the ways in which authors of fiction mediate and interpret books, libraries, and the act of reading to their own readers. Fiction enables writers to teach readers how to read, but it can also portray subversive acts of reading that engage with contemporary cultural anxieties or moral debates. The volume draws on approaches from literary studies, book history, library history, and theories and histories of reading, to examine what fictional representations of reading tell us about changing cultural attitudes to different reading practices, and the use (and abuse) of books beyond actual reading, both in the context of specific works and about the reception of books more widely.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/ufnt1799_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250130 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781913739034 13 15 9781913739027 06 15 9781913739041 06 15 9781913739102 06 15 9781913739058 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:95e2d32b-6e36-4062-84c7-091c1c947ff6 03 01 01 urn:uuid:95e2d32b-6e36-4062-84c7-091c1c947ff6 15 9781909646452 06 10.14296/117.9781909646452 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:95e2d32b-6e36-4062-84c7-091c1c947ff6 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/brave-new-world-imperial-and-democratic-nation-building-in-britain-between-the-wars/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9781909646452.pdf 1 B01 Laura Beers 2 B01 Geraint Thomas 01 eng 00 288 03 12 HBJD1 10 HIS015000 B2 History ⇒ British and Irish History 20 Inter-war Britain 93 NHD 20 Conservatives 20 British Empire 20 Fabian Colonial Bureau 20 British press 20 Modernism 20 Black intellectuals 20 Daily Mirror 20 Save the Children Fund 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>After the First World War, Britain faced a number of challenges as it sought to adapt to domestic conditions of mass democracy while maintaining its position in the empire in the face of national independence movements. As politicians at home and abroad sought to legitimize their position, new efforts were made to conceptualize nationality and citizenship, with attempts to engage the public using mass media and greater emphasis on governing in the public interest. Brave New World reappraises the domestic and imperial history of Britain in the inter-war period, investigating how 'nation building' was given renewed impetus by the upheavals of the First World War. The essays in this collection address how new technologies and approaches to governance were used to forge new national identities both at home and in the empire, covering a wide range of issues from the representation of empire on film to the convergence of politics and 'star culture'. The book is an invaluable resource for scholars of British social, political and imperial history, as well as being of interest to the general reader.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/117.9781909646452_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20170109 2017 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905165582 06 15 9781909646452 06 15 9781905165759 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:62c43edf-64e4-4de6-9b74-24903a51e765 03 01 01 urn:uuid:62c43edf-64e4-4de6-9b74-24903a51e765 15 9781908857613 06 10.14296/618.9781908857613 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:62c43edf-64e4-4de6-9b74-24903a51e765 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/brazil-essays-on-history-and-politics/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/618.9781908857613.pdf 1 A01 Leslie Bethell 01 eng 00 232 03 12 HBJK 93 JP B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 20 Latin America 10 POL057000 12 JP 20 Leslie Bethell 93 NHK 12 1KLSB 93 1KLSB 20 Bolsonaro 93 3MN 20 Paraguayan War 93 3MP 20 fascism 93 3MR 20 populism 20 politics 20 slavery 20 democracy 20 Partido dos Trabalhadores 20 Partido da Social Democracia Brasileira 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Leslie Bethell is the most respected scholar of Brazil of his generation.

Gustav Klaus on British labouring-class, socialist and anarchist writing traditions as its foundation, the volume embraces variety to reflect the richness of working-class and radical cultures across the last three centuries. Cross-cutting topics include the ways in which working-class writers got into print, the obstacles they faced in doing so and in expressing their views, the rise of women writers and their involvement in radical culture, representations of animals and more-than-human perspectives, socialism and environmentalism, feminism, anti-imperialism, and the intersection of working-class and diasporic identities.</p><p>Questions of genre and form are also addressed, from dialect poetry to the novel, pastoral to melodrama, and life writing to theatre. Showcasing a wide range of innovative approaches, the volume contributes significantly to recovering the literary work and radicalism of several little-studied and forgotten working-class authors, as well as reappraising better-known figures such as John Clare and Ethel Carnie Holdsworth.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/jimx5453_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250925 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781913739072 13 15 9781913739065 06 15 9781913739089 06 15 9781913739096 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:4705fcf9-ba63-47e5-84f2-b8fa9a081cbc 03 01 01 urn:uuid:4705fcf9-ba63-47e5-84f2-b8fa9a081cbc 15 9781912250608 06 10.14296/lsbs7954 DG 002 Critical Human Rights Studies 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:4705fcf9-ba63-47e5-84f2-b8fa9a081cbc 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/capitalism-colonisation-and-the-ecocide-genocide-nexus/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/lsbs7954.pdf 1 A01 Martin Crook 01 ORCID 0000-0002-9356-8521 01 eng 00 272 03 20 eco-genocidal B2 Human Rights 12 JPVH 93 JPVH 10 POL035010 20 capitalism 10 POL023000 93 RN 12 RN 12 HBTZ 93 NHTZ 10 POL061000 20 production 20 developmentalism 12 KCP 93 KCSA 10 POL045000 12 1HFGK 10 3.3.5.0.0.0.0 93 KCP 20 political economy 93 1HFGK 12 1MBF 10 6.0.1.0.0.0.0 20 human rights 93 1MBF 20 exterminism 20 dispossession 20 Kenya 20 Australia 20 settler colonies 20 Indigenous people 20 colonialism 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>With climate change and a looming ecological crisis impacting the systems and institutions that support life, this timely publication examines the drivers of ecologically induced genocide – the environmental destruction resulting in conditions of life that fundamentally threaten a social group’s cultural or physical existence. Focusing on the former British colonies of Kenya and Australia, both united by a discourse of developmentalism, the book draws attention to the critical role that the destructions of ecologies has historically played, and continues to play, in the genocide of Indigenous and place-based peoples. It synthesises radical political ecology with a political-economic approach to illuminate the nexus between the inherently genocidal and ecocidal properties of the capitalist global system and the manner in which the ecocidal logic of capital intersects with settler and post-colonial structures. In exploring the genocidal effects of climate governance and market environmentalism on Indigenous peoples in Kenya and forms of energy extraction on Indigenous groups in Australia, the book also draws on original interviews to prioritise the lived experiences of, and give voice to, the groups that have suffered structural violence and social harms. Fundamentally, it puts forward <em>a political economy of genocide</italic>, which seeks to explain the manner in which material forces, on local and global scales, underpin and give rise to ever-evolving relations of genocide. As such, this important book deepens and enriches our knowledge of genocide and the eco-genocidal nature of colonisation, and the capitalist mode of production that underpins developmentalism.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/lsbs7954_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20241121 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912250592 13 15 9781912250585 06 15 9781912250608 06 15 9781912250677 06 15 9781912250615 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:da6e3856-bdec-4206-ae8b-351767da1ab8 03 01 01 urn:uuid:da6e3856-bdec-4206-ae8b-351767da1ab8 15 9780992725778 06 10.14296/319.9780992725778 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:da6e3856-bdec-4206-ae8b-351767da1ab8 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/319.9780992725778.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/charlotte-brontes-city-of-glass/ 1 A01 Isobel Armstrong 01 eng 00 32 03 20 Bronte 93 D 12 DSBF 10 LIT004120 B2 Literary Studies 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 Crystal Palace 10 HIS018000 12 3JH 93 3MNB 20 glass 93 5PX-GB-S 20 juvenilia 20 Vilette 20 fantasy 20 dreams 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>This lecture was originally published by the Institute of English Studies, University of London in 1992.<break/><break/> The Hilda Hulme Memorial Lectures were established in 1985 following a donation from Mr Mohamed Aslam in memory of his wife, Dr Hilda Hulme.

The Church was disestablished, and godly puritan practices promoted in parish churches and everyday life. Some clergy and parishioners embraced change; others were horrified, experiencing these as times of madness and trouble. Historians continue to debate the extent of the social disruption that resulted, and the impact of godly ideals. </p><p>With an introduction from Professor Bernard Capp, pre-eminent social historian of the period, this collection of essays assesses interregnum religious practice at ground level, based on a sophisticated understanding of the complex and unique pattern of record-keeping and survival from the period. Each chapter takes an original approach, using a specific local or institutional case study or previously under-examined source from England, Scotland or Wales. In the process, we see how ever-evolving national initiatives met local spaces, local traditions and individual personal agendas. We see the tensions produced by the emergence of religious plurality in a society still yearning for social conformity under a uniform practice of religion, the forces for inclusion and exclusion, of acceptance of or estrangement from godly religion.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/2106.9781912702664_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210623 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702657 13 15 9781912702640 06 15 9781912702664 06 15 9781913002183 06 15 9781912702688 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:c7dd96fd-3197-4d11-a44e-37cae51ccc2b 03 01 01 urn:uuid:c7dd96fd-3197-4d11-a44e-37cae51ccc2b 15 9781912702367 06 10.14296/0320.9781912702367 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:c7dd96fd-3197-4d11-a44e-37cae51ccc2b 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0320.9781912702367.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0320.9781912702367.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/cinemas-and-cinema-going-in-the-united-kingdom/ 1 A01 Sam Manning 01 eng 00 250 03 93 ATFA 20 cinema 12 HB 10 HIS015070 B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 12 APF 20 leisure 93 NH 10 PER004030 10 1.1.2.0.0.0.0 93 1DDU-GB-EYKS 12 HBLW3 20 television 12 1DBK 93 1DDU-GB-NB 20 programming 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 post-war 12 3JJ 93 3MPQ 93 6AG 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Cinema-going was the most popular commercial leisure activity in the first half of the twentieth century, peaking in 1946 with 1.6 billion recorded admissions. Though ‘going to the pictures’ remained a popular pastime, the transition to peacetime altered citizens’ leisure habits. During the 1950s increased affluence, the growth of television ownership and the diversification of leisure led to rapid declines in attendance. Cinema attendances fell in all regions, but the speed, nature and extent of decline varied widely across the United Kingdom.</p><p>By linking national developments to detailed case studies of Belfast and Sheffield, this book adds nuance to our understanding of regional variations in film exhibition, audience habits and cinema-going experiences during a period of profound social and cultural change. Drawing on a wide range of quantitative and qualitative sources, Cinema and Cinema-Going conveys the diverse nature of this important industry, and the significance of place as a determinant of film attendance in post-war Britain.</p><p>Dr Sam Manning teaches at Queen’s University Belfast and is a postdoctoral researcher on the AHRC European Cinema Audiences project at Oxford Brookes University.

Villages and towns across the densely populated Central Belt owe their existence to coal mining’s expansion during the nineteenth century and its maturation in the twentieth. Colliery closures and job losses were not just experienced in economic terms: they had profound implications for what it meant to be a worker, a Scot and a resident of an industrial settlement. <i>Coal Country</italic> presents the first book-length account of deindustrialization in the Scottish coalfields. It draws on archival research using records from UK government, the nationalized coal industry and trade unions, as well as the words and memories of former miners, their wives and children that were collected in an extensive oral history project.</p><p>Deindustrialization progressed as a slow but powerful march across the second half of the twentieth century. In this book, big changes in cultural identities are explained as the outcome of long-term economic developments. The oral testimonies bring to life transformations in gender relations and distinct generational workplaces experiences. This book argues that major alterations to the politics of class and nationhood have their origins in deindustrialization. The adverse effects of UK government policy, and centralization in the nationalized coal industry, encouraged miners and their trade union to voice their grievances in the language of Scottish national sovereignty. These efforts established a distinctive Scottish national coalfield community and laid the foundations for a devolved Scottish Parliament. <i>Coal Country </italic>explains the deep roots of economic changes and their political reverberations, which continue to be felt as we debate another major change in energy sources during the 2020s.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/321.9781912702589_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20210215 2021 02 WORLD 13 15 9781912702558 13 15 9781912702541 06 15 9781912702589 06 15 9781911507468 06 15 9781912702565 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:40db12bf-f0a1-491f-9408-4a1e3643a63c 03 01 01 urn:uuid:40db12bf-f0a1-491f-9408-4a1e3643a63c 15 9781912250219 06 10.14296/0120.9781912250219 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:40db12bf-f0a1-491f-9408-4a1e3643a63c 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/contemporary-challenges-in-securing-human-rights/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0120.9781912250219.pdf 1 B01 Corinne Lennox 01 eng 00 164 03 20 human rights B2 Human Rights 12 JPVH 93 JPVH 10 POL035010 B2 Commonwealth Studies 93 JBFA 12 JPW 10 POL004000 20 refugees 93 JPW 20 women's rights 20 justice 20 change 20 legal protections 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p> To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the MA in Understanding and Securing Human Rights offered at the School of Advanced Study, University of London, we are pleased to publish a commemorative edited volume on human rights themes authored by distinguished alumni and faculty. <break/> The chapters reflect on cutting-edge challenges in the field of human rights.

Many of these had well-established pre-conquest ethnic identities which can be compared with Roman perceptions of them. In other cases, the ethnicity of peoples conquered by Rome has been perceived almost entirely through the lenses of Roman ethnographic writing and administrative structures.</p><p>The formation of such identities, and the shaping of these identities by Rome, was a vital part of the process of Roman imperialism. Comparisons across the empire reveal some similarities in the processes of identity formation during and after the period of Roman conquest, but they also reveal a considerable degree of diversity and localisation in interactions between Romans and others.</p><p>This volume explores how these practices of ethnic categorisation formed part of Roman strategies of control, and how people living in particular places internalised them and developed their own senses of belonging to an ethnic community. It includes both regional studies and thematic approaches by leading scholars in the field.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/917.9781905670796_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20191025 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781905670468 06 15 9781905670796 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:095ad48c-8f7a-43a7-a8b3-7143f0cc8964 03 01 01 urn:uuid:095ad48c-8f7a-43a7-a8b3-7143f0cc8964 15 9781908857699 06 10.14296/519.9781908857699 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:095ad48c-8f7a-43a7-a8b3-7143f0cc8964 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/519.9781908857699.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/creative-spaces/ 1 B01 Niall H.D.

The essays within the collection reassess dominant theoretical notions of ‘marginality’ in the region and argue that, in contemporary society, it invariably allows for (if not leads to) the production of the new.</p><p>While Latin American cities have, since their foundation, always included marginal spaces (due, for example, to the segregation of indigenous groups), the massive expansion of informal housing constructed on occupied land in the second half of the twentieth century have brought them into the collective imaginary like never before. Originally viewed as spaces of deprivation, violence, and dangerous alterity, the urban margins were later romanticized as spaces of opportunity and popular empowerment. Instead, this volume analyses the production of new art forms, political organizations and subjectivities emerging from the urban margins in Latin America, neither condemning nor idealizing the effects they produce.</p><p>To account for the complex nature of contemporary urban marginality, the volume draws on research from a wide spectrum of disciplines, ranging from cultural and urban studies to architecture and sociology. Thus the collection analyzes how these different conceptions of marginal spaces work together and contribute to the imagined and material reality of the wider city.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/519.9781908857699_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20190510 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857484 06 15 9781908857699 06 15 9781908857491 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:70294a8d-2969-49d5-a3a9-f562bc64bf63 03 01 01 urn:uuid:70294a8d-2969-49d5-a3a9-f562bc64bf63 15 9781908857750 06 10.14296/520.978190885775 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:70294a8d-2969-49d5-a3a9-f562bc64bf63 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/cultural-worlds-of-the-jesuits-in-colonial-latin-america/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/520.978190885775.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/520.978190885775.epub 1 B01 Linda A.

They pioneered an interest in indigenous languages and cultures, compiling dictionaries and writing some of the earliest ethnographies of the region. They also explored the region’s natural history and made significant contributions to the development of science and medicine. On their estates and in the missions they introduced new plants, livestock, and agricultural techniques, such as irrigation. In addition, they left a lasting legacy on the region’s architecture, art, and music. <break/><break/> The volume demonstrates the diversity of Jesuit contributions to Latin American culture. This volume is unique in considering not only the range of Jesuit activities but also the diversity of perspectives from which they may be approached. It includes papers from scholars of history, linguistics, religion, art, architecture, music, medicine and science.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/520.978190885775_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20200406 2020 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857620 06 15 9781908857750 06 15 9781915249579 06 15 9781908857743 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:7a6819ea-eaf7-4430-bf62-c72849f99816 03 01 01 urn:uuid:7a6819ea-eaf7-4430-bf62-c72849f99816 15 9781908857729 06 10.14296/919.9781908857729 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:7a6819ea-eaf7-4430-bf62-c72849f99816 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781908857729.pdf 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781908857729.epub 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/cultures-of-anti-racism-in-latin-america-and-the-caribbean/ 1 B01 Peter Wade 01 ORCID 0000-0003-4070-4187 2 B01 James Scorer 01 ORCID 0000-0002-9728-9060 3 B01 Ignacio Aguiló 01 ORCID 0000-0001-6312-1457 01 eng 00 232 03 93 JBSL 12 JFSL4 B2 Languages, Cultures and Societies ⇒ Latin American and Caribbean Studies 10 POL057000 20 racism 93 1KJ 12 1KJ 10 HIS024000 20 politics 12 1KL 93 1KL 20 global 10 HIS041000 12 2AB 93 2ACB 10 4.0.0.0.0.0.0 20 post-racial 12 2ADSL 93 2ADSL 10 4.1.0.0.0.0.0 20 attitudes 12 3J 93 3M 10 ET038 93 5PB 93 6AG 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Latin America’s long history of showing how racism can co-exist with racial mixture and conviviality offers useful ammunition for strengthening anti-racist stances. This volume asks whether cultural production has a particular role to play within discourses and practices of anti-racism in Latin America and the Caribbean. The contributors analyse music, performance, education, language, film and art in diverse national contexts across the region. </p><p>The book also places Latin American and Caribbean racial formations within a broader global context. It shows that the region provides valuable opportunities for thinking about anti-racism, not least when recent political events worldwide have shown that, far from a 'post-racial' age, we are living in an era of intensified racist expression and racial injustice.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/919.9781908857729_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20190930 2019 02 WORLD 13 15 9781908857552 06 15 9781908857729 06 15 9781908857712 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:506598e3-1c58-4a4a-ac58-85393f3f4c65 03 01 01 urn:uuid:506598e3-1c58-4a4a-ac58-85393f3f4c65 15 9781913739010 06 10.14296/0720.9781913739010 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:506598e3-1c58-4a4a-ac58-85393f3f4c65 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/0720.9781913739010.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/dante-and-rossetti-translation-pastiche-ritual-fate/ 1 A01 Jerome J.

Nine research-led chapters provide an ‘inside’ perspective on democracy in modern British history, covering the complex relationship between Britain and its Empire, the democratisation of metropolitan culture, and how experts aimed to inform public debate in a changing democratic society. An ‘outside’ perspective is brought by six interludes that engage with the democratising forces at work in the twenty-first-century academy that are reshaping the profession, and thus the histories that scholars produce. In bringing these two histories of democracy together within a single conceptual framework, this book narrates an important shift in the landscape of UK higher education from the ‘inside’ and the ‘outside’, insisting that professional and intellectual changes must be seen alongside one another. Collectively, this volume responds to the scholarly and professional contributions of Peter Mandler, whose sensitive readings of cultural discourses and their social reach has inspired a generation of modern British historians. Through novel methods, insightful case studies and broader reflections on the profession, it shows how modern British history is being transformed by these questions and wider social and economic changes in contemporary Britain.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.63674/TWQX3656_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20250807 2025 02 WORLD 13 15 9781915249906 13 15 9781915249890 06 15 9781915249920 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:480fd680-6470-4f8a-8f2c-d79770425d0e 03 01 01 urn:uuid:480fd680-6470-4f8a-8f2c-d79770425d0e 15 9781914477508 06 10.14296/mgyc2910 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:480fd680-6470-4f8a-8f2c-d79770425d0e 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/designed-for-play-childrens-playgrounds-and-the-politics-of-urban-space-1840-2010/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/mgyc2910.pdf 1 A01 Jon Winder 01 ORCID 0000-0003-4868-5208 01 eng 12 HBTB 10 HIS052000 B2 History 93 NHTB 20 playground 20 history 12 RPC 93 RPC 10 SOC047000 20 childhood 93 RGCS 10 SOC026030 10 1.1.0.0.0.0.0 93 1DDU 20 social 93 3MN 20 geography 93 3MP 20 urban 20 planning 20 space 20 design 20 education 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>Children’s playgrounds are commonly understood as the obvious place for children to play: safe, natural and out of the way. But these expectations hide a convoluted and overlooked history of children’s place in public space – one shaped by implicit social, political and environmental values, and by government intervention in spaces and lives across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This book is the first empirically grounded historical account of the modern playground, drawing on the archival materials of social reformers, park superintendents, equipment manufacturers and architects in Britain and beyond to chart the playground’s journey from marginal obscurity to popular ubiquity. In exploring the evolution of play space design, the book shows that the ideal playground has long represented a space where changing conceptions of nature, health, childhood, commerce and technology have all been played out. It covers the development of garden gymnasiums in the 1890s, the influence of Charles Wicksteed, increasing standardisation in the interwar period, the impact of progressive education, pioneering female designers and the adventure playground movement in the twentieth century, and more recent challenges to the playground’s status as a site of health, nature and safety.</p><p><em>Designed for Play</italic> is an original and accessible contribution to modern British history, urban and environmental history, and histories and geographies of childhood.</p></p> 04 01 https://uolpress.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/9781914477485_cover-scaled-wpv_652x.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20240711 2024 02 WORLD 13 15 9781914477492 13 15 9781914477485 06 15 9781914477508 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:1cbc7572-c819-4542-a7fc-b0087ea6e19b 03 01 01 urn:uuid:1cbc7572-c819-4542-a7fc-b0087ea6e19b 15 9781909646834 06 10.14296/718.9781909646834 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:1cbc7572-c819-4542-a7fc-b0087ea6e19b 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/718.9781909646834.pdf 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/dethroning-historical-reputations-universities-museums-and-the-commemoration-of-benefactors/ 1 B01 Jill Pellew 2 B01 Lawrence Goldman 01 eng 00 166 03 12 HB 10 HIS000000 B2 History ⇒ Social and Cultural History 20 monuments 93 NH 10 1.1.2.0.0.0.0 20 ethics 93 NHTR 20 Cecil Rhodes 93 NHTS 20 memorialisation 20 statues 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>The campaigns in universities across the world to reject, rename and remove historic benefactions have brought the present into collision with the past. In Britain the attempt to remove a statue of one of Oxford’s most famous benefactors, the imperialist Cecil Rhodes, has spread to other universities and their benefactors, and now also affects civic monuments and statues in towns and cities across the country. In the United States, memorials to leaders of the Confederacy in the American Civil War and to other slaveholders have been the subject of intense dispute. Should we continue to honour benefactors and historic figures whose actions are now deemed ethically unacceptable? How can we reconcile the views held by our ancestors with those we now hold today? Should we even try, acknowledging, in the words of the novelist L. P. Hartley, that ‘the past is another country; they do things differently there’? </p><p>The essays in this interdisciplinary collection are drawn from a conference at the Institute of Historical Research in the University of London. Historians, fundraisers, a sociologist and a museum director examine these current issues from different perspectives, with an introductory essay by Sir David Cannadine, president of the British Academy. Together they explore an emerging conflict between the past and present, history and ideology, and benefactors and their critics.</p></p> 04 01 https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/718.9781909646834_frontcover.jpg University of London Press 01 University of London Press https://uolpress.co.uk/ London, GB 04 20180731 2018 02 WORLD 13 15 9781909646827 06 15 9781909646834 06 15 9781912702015 University of London Press 09 99 R Open access 01 0.01 USD urn:uuid:6b3ee0f8-4d00-42e8-a726-880ec88568d8 03 01 01 urn:uuid:6b3ee0f8-4d00-42e8-a726-880ec88568d8 15 9780992725761 06 10.14296/419.9780992725761 DG 002 01 Thoth WorkID urn:uuid:6b3ee0f8-4d00-42e8-a726-880ec88568d8 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://uolpress.co.uk/book/dickens-george-eliot-and-george-henry-lewes/ 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.uolpress.co.uk/10.14296/419.9780992725761.pdf 1 A01 Rosemary Ashton 01 eng 00 32 03 12 DSBF 93 DSBF 20 George Eliot 10 LIT004120 B2 Literary Studies 12 2AB 93 2ACB 20 George Henry Lewes 12 3JH 93 3MN 20 Charles Dickens 20 psychological realism 20 19th century literature 01 06 47 Open access - no commercial use 46 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode 03 03 <p><p>When the Victorian journalist and critic, George Henry Lewes invited George Eliot and Charles Dickens to dinner in 1859, few imagined it would lead to one of the greatest creative exchanges in literary history. </p><p>From the non-traditional ‘marriage’ of Eliot and Lewes, to the unconventional eye Lewes cast over Dickens’ work, this book throws fresh light on the chief subject of their critical interest by looking at the complex relationships between Dickens, Eliot and Lewes.
