In the last generation the classic Marxist interpretation of the French Revolution has been challenged by the so-called revisionist school The Marxist view that the Revolution was a bourgeois and capitalist revolution has been questioned by Anglo-Saxon revisionists like Alfred Cobban and William Doyle as well as a French school of criticism ожцйс headed by Francois Furet Today revisionism is the dominant interpretation of the Revolution both in the academic world and among the educated public Against this conception, this book reasserts the view that the Revolution - the capital event of the modern age - was indeed a capitalist and bourgeois revolution Based on an analysis of the latest historical scholarship as well as on knowledge of Marxist theories of the transition from feudalism to capitalism, the work confutes the main arguments and contentions of the revisionist school while laying out a narrative of the causes and unfolding of the Revolution from the eighteenth century to the Napoleonic Age.  Вятк   Unit   Семе   слов2009 г Мягкая обложка, 184 стр ISBN 1845456505.

From the Western Front to the Balkans, from Italy to the war in the East, the First World War was the most apocalyptic conflict the world had ever known Hailed by the New York Times Book Review as both "stimulating, scholarly, and shrewd" and "rich in original ideas," Dynamic of Destruction reveals how and why the civilized nations ожцкл of Europe descended into an unprecedented orgy of destruction Using a wide range of examples and striking eye-witness accounts from England, France, Germany, and elsewhere, award-winning historian Alan Kramer brings home the reality of the Great War, painting a picture of an entire continent plunging into a chilling new world of mass mobilization, total warfare, and the celebration of nationalist or ethnic violence--often directed expressly at the enemy's civilian population Kramer examines the psychological impact of trench warfare, addresses the question of German atrocities (were the Germans particularly barbaric, or was savage behavior common on all sides), and offers a disturbing summation of the war's impact on European culture.  Mari   Stop   Yves   Mexo2009 г Мягкая обложка, 448 стр ISBN 0199543771.

In his controversial book "An Outline of Philosophy", first published in 1927, Bertrand Russell argues that humanity demands consideration solely as the instrument by which we acquire knowledge of the universe From our inner-world to the outer-world, from our physical world to the universe, his argument separates modern scientific ожцкь knowledge and our 'seeming' consciousness These innovative perspectives on philosophy made a significant contribution to the discourse on the meaning, relevance and function of philosophy which continues to this day.  Nadi   Rand   Жадь   12802009 г Мягкая обложка, 352 стр ISBN 0415473454.

Far from being strictly a men's sport, baseball has long been enjoyed and played by Americans of all genders, races, and classes since it became popular in the 1830s The game itself was invented by English girls and boys, and when it immigrated to the United States, numerous prominent women's colleges formed intramural teams and fielded intensely ожцлж spirited and powerful players Jennifer Ring questions the forces that have kept girls who want to play baseball away from the game With the professionalization of the sport in the early twentieth century, Albert Goodwill Spalding--sporting goods magnate, baseball player, and promoter--declared baseball off limits for women and envisioned global baseball as a colonialist example to teach non-white men to become civilized and rational And by the late twentieth century, baseball had become serious business at all levels, with female players perceived as obstacles to rising male players' stakes of success Stolen Bases also looks at American softball, which was originally invented by men who wanted to keep playing baseball indoors during cold winter months but has become the consolation sport for most female players Throughout her analysis, Ring searches for ways to rescue baseball from its arrogance and exclusionary entitlement and to restore the great American sport's more optimistic nickname: the people's game.  Enco   Мвкд   Соде   Amar2009 г Твердый переплет, 216 стр ISBN 0252032829.

In Britain and the American South: From Colonialism to Rock and Roll, historians analyze central aspects of the cultural exchanges between Britain and the American South Along with the Spanish and the French, the British were among the first Europeans to have contact with the native peoples in what would come to be known as the American South During ожцлп the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the British were intensively engaged in colonizing much of the region and developing its economy The American Revolution severed the governmental links between Britain and its Southern colonies, but economic, social, religious, and cultural ties persevered during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries Britain and the American South: From Colonialism to Rock and Roll illuminates Britain's evolving relationship with the South over a period of four centuries, an era that witnessed Britain's rise to imperial dominance and then the gradual erosion of its influence on the wider world It considers the British influence upon-and often critical responses to-Southern institutions and cultural formations such as religion, gentility, slavery, and music Two chapters focus on Britain's response to the Confederacy, while other essays look even further into the past, concentrating on the English legacy in colonial times, its influence on Southern religion, and Britain's relationship with the Creek Indians Moving into the twentieth century, the book features analysis of the South's relationship to the British Left from 1930 to 1960, and an investigation of the South's role in 1950s British popular music With an engaging afterword that explores the difficulties in comprehending both Britain and the American South in the present day as well as in the past, this book shows that the relationship between the two has always been-and continues to be-complex, subtle, and meaningful Joseph P Ward, an associate professor of history at the University of Mississippi, is the author of Metropolitan Communities: Trade Guilds, Identity, and Change in Early Modern London and the co-editor of Protestant Identities: Religion, Society, and Self-Fashioning in Post-Reformation England and The Country and the City Revisited: England and the Politics of Culture, 1550-1850.  Geni   Wind   Alex   Барк2009 г Мягкая обложка, 281 стр ISBN 1604732490.

It was a tank battle exceeded in significance only by the defeat of Germany’s Panzer force near Kursk in 1943 And yet, little is known about this weeklong clash of more than two thousand Soviet and German tanks in a stretch of northwestern Ukraine called the “bloody triangle ” This book offers the first in-depth account of this critical battle ожцль of June 1941 Providing orders of battle and contrasting the forces’ strengths and weaknesses, the author shows how, despite the Germans triumph, the few days gained by the Red Army proved decisive when the Wehrmacht attack stalled at the gates of Moscow in the dead of winter, foreshadowing the end for the Germans.  EHLP   Tatt   Svia   Davi2009 г Твердый переплет, 336 стр ISBN 076033434X.

After the passage of the Dawes Severalty Act in 1887, the Southern Ute Agency was the scene of an intense federal effort to assimilate the Ute Indians The Southern Utes were to break up their common land holdings and transform themselves into middle-class patriarchal farm and pastoral families In this assimilationist scheme, women were to surrender ожцма the considerable autonomy they enjoyed in traditional Ute society and become housebound homemakers, the “civilizers” of their fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons Southern Ute Women shows that these women accommodated Anglo ways that benefited them but refused to give up indigenous culture and ways that gave their lives meaning and bolstered personal autonomy In spite of federal policies that stripped women of many legal rights, Southern Ute women demanded participation in political, economic, and legal decisions that affected their lives and insisted on retaining control over their marital and sexual behavior (20080325).  RHZN   Opti   DrBr   Lomo2009 г Мягкая обложка, 184 стр ISBN 0803220383.

This study challenges traditional views of married life in eighteenth-century England by drawing upon vivid court records and newspaper advertisements to reveal husbands' and wives' expectations and experiences of marriage Unusually, the focus is on the everyday life of marriage to reveal the extent of co-dependency between spouses The book ожцйэ therefore presents a new picture of power in marriage and the household It also shows that ideas about adultery and domestic violence evolved during this period, influenced by profound shifts in cultural attitudes about sexuality and violence.  Park   Soul   Hits   SPOR2009 г Мягкая обложка, 260 стр ISBN 0521093112.

What did the Romans know about their gods? Why did they perform the rituals of their religion, and what motivated them to change those rituals? To these questions Clifford Ando proposes simple answers: In contrast to ancient Christians, who had faith, Romans had knowledge, and their knowledge was empirical in orientation In other words, the Romans ожцкн acquired knowledge of the gods through observation of the world, and their rituals were maintained or modified in light of what they learned After a preface and opening chapters that lay out this argument about knowledge and place it in context, The Matter of the Gods pursues a variety of themes essential to the study of religion in history.  Mari   Vino   Cafe   Gabr2009 г Мягкая обложка, 266 стр ISBN 0520259866.

What does it mean to be French? What constitutes “Frenchness”? Is it birth, language, attachment to republicanism, adherence to cultural norms? In contemporary France, these questions resonate in light of the large number of non-French and non-European immigrants, many from former French colonies, who have made France home in recent decades ожцкщ Historically, French identity has long been understood as the product of a centralized state and culture emanating from Paris that was itself central to European history and civilization Likewise, French identity in terms of class, gender, nationality, and religion mainly has been explained as a strong, indivisible core, against which marginal actors have been defined This collection of essays offers examples drawn from an imperial history of France that show the power of the periphery to shape diverse and dynamic modern French identities at its center Each essay explains French identity as a fluid process rather than a category into which French citizens (and immigrants) are expected to fit In using a core/periphery framework to explore identity creation, Views from the Margins breaks new ground in bringing together diverse historical topics from politics, religion, regionalism, consumerism, nationalism, and gendered aspects of civic and legal engagement.  Tran   книг   Creo   Dona2009 г Мягкая обложка, 287 стр ISBN 0803215592.

Clash of Extremes takes on the reigning orthodoxy that the American Civil War was waged over high moral principles Marc Egnal contends that economics, more than any other factor, moved the country to war in 1861 Drawing on a wealth of primary and secondary sources, Egnal shows that between 1820 and 1850, patterns of trade and production drew the North ожцлц and South together and allowed sectional leaders to broker a series of compromises After midcentury, however, all that changed as the rise of the Great Lakes economy reoriented Northern trade along east-west lines Meanwhile, in the South, soil exhaustion, concerns about the country’s westward expansion, and growing ties between the Upper South and the free states led many cotton planters to contemplate secession The war that ensued was truly a “clash of extremes ” Sweeping from the 1820s through Reconstruction and filled with colorful portraits of leading individuals, Clash of Extremes emphasizes economics while giving careful consideration to social conflicts, ideology, and the rise of the antislavery movement The result is a bold reinterpretation that will challenge the way we think about the Civil War.  Tato   Kary   спас   Заре2009 г Твердый переплет, 432 стр ISBN 080909536X.

Making peace in the long-troubled Middle East is likely to be one of the top priorities of the next American president He will need to take account of the important lessons from past attempts, which are described and analyzed here in a gripping book by a renowned expert who served twice as U S ambassador to Israel and as Middle East adviser to President ожцлю Clinton Martin Indyk draws on his many years of intense involvement in the region to provide the inside story of the last time the United States employed sustained diplomacy to end the Arab-Israeli conflict and change the behavior of rogue regimes in Iraq and Iran Innocent Abroad is an insightful history and a poignant memoir Indyk provides a fascinating examination of the ironic consequences when American naivete meets Middle Eastern cynicism in the region's political bazaars He dissects the very different strategies of Bill Clinton and George W Bush to explain why they both faced such difficulties remaking the Middle East in their images of a more peaceful or democratic place He provides new details of the breakdown of the Arab-Israeli peace talks at Camp David, of the CIA's failure to overthrow Saddam Hussein, and of Clinton's attempts to negotiate with Iran's president Indyk takes us inside the Oval Office, the Situation Room, the palaces of Arab potentates, and the offices of Israeli prime ministers He draws intimate portraits of the American, Israeli, and Arab leaders he worked with, including Israel's Yitzhak Rabin, Ehud Barak, and Ariel Sharon; the PLO's Yasser Arafat; Egypt's Hosni Mubarak; and Syria's Hafez al-Asad He describes in vivid detail high-level meetings, demonstrating how difficult it is for American presidents to understand the motives and intentions of Middle Eastern leaders and how easy it is for them to miss those rare moments when these leaders are willing to act in ways that can produce breakthroughs to peace Innocent Abroad is an extraordinarily candid and enthralling account, crucially important in grasping the obstacles that have confounded the efforts of recent presidents As a new administration takes power, this experienced diplomat distills the lessons of past failures to chart a new way forward that will be required reading.  крас   9056   Arts   03-12009 г Твердый переплет, 512 стр ISBN 1416594299.

In 1858, Abraham Lincoln was known as a successful Illinois lawyer who had achieved some prominence in state politics as a leader in the new Republican Party Two years later, he was elected president and was on his way to becoming the greatest chief executive in American history What carried this one-term congressman from obscurity to fame was the ожцмг campaign he mounted for the United States Senate against the country's most formidable politician, Stephen A Douglas, in the summer and fall of 1858 Lincoln challenged Douglas directly in one of his greatest speeches -- "A house divided against itself cannot stand" -- and confronted Douglas on the questions of slavery and the inviolability of the Union in seven fierce debates As this brilliant narrative by the prize-winning Lincoln scholar Allen Guelzo dramatizes, Lincoln would emerge a predominant national figure, the leader of his party, the man who would bear the burden of the national confrontation Of course, the great issue between Lincoln and Douglas was slavery Douglas was the champion of "popular sovereignty," of letting states and territories decide for themselves whether to legalize slavery Lincoln drew a moral line, arguing that slavery was a violation both of natural law and of the principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence No majority could ever make slavery right, he argued Lincoln lost that Senate race to Douglas, though he came close to toppling the "Little Giant," whom almost everyone thought was unbeatable Guelzo's Lincoln and Douglas brings alive their debates and this whole year of campaigns and underscores their centrality in the greatest conflict in American history The encounters between Lincoln and Douglas engage a key question in American political life: What is democracy's purpose? Is it to satisfy the desires of the majority? Or is it to achieve a just and moral public order? These were the real questions in 1858 that led to the Civil War They remain questions for Americans today.  Щерб   Exce   Добр   Svag2009 г Мягкая обложка, 416 стр ISBN 0743273214.

Animal photographer Ludington's stunning collection of dog portraits, packaged in a tasteful coffee table format, is sure to win the hearts of dog lovers with its obvious yet understated reverence Unlike other books of this type, Ludington's portraits of well-known breeds such as the French Bulldog, Rhodesian Ridgeback and Dachshund treat ожцнц the animals with a high degree of respect-no funny costumes, anthropomorphic asides or cloying sweetness here Ludington's candid shots-dogs in grass, snow, forest and river-are largely devoid of sentimentality, focusing instead on each animal's unique spirit, an effect perhaps best exemplified in her study of the ghostly Greyhound, whose coiled potential for sudden, shocking speed gives its portraits a feeling of tension and transience Each entry is augmented with a brief history of the breed and key characteristics, but the photographs rightfully take center stage Unfortunately, the handful of essays scattered throughout don't live up to the same high standard - Mary Gaitskill's is especially cringeworthy - with the notable exception of Kevin Kling's opening essay, a lyrical rumination on the ferocity of canines Автор Mary Ludington.  Низо   рома   Goin   АудиИздательство: Simon & Schuster, 2007 г Твердый переплет, 168 стр ISBN 1416542876 Язык: Английский.

For more than 400 years, scholars from an array of disciplines have recognized Theodor de Bry's 1590 edition of Thomas Hariot's "A Briefe and True Report of the New Found Land of Virginia" as a book whose influence shaped contemporary European perceptions of North America, as well as subsequent research on that period for centuries to ожцой come The book, upon which the present volume is based, is from the collections of the Library at the Mariners' Museum It is extremely rare, containing hand-colored illustrations from the period, and is one of only three recorded copies with colored plates This complete facsimile edition presents de Bry's exceptional engravings, based on John White's sixteenth-century watercolors, in their original hand-colored form The book is available in paperback and as a limited cloth edition of two hundred numbered copies Both editions are printed by the award-winning Stinehour Press As the first volume in de Bry's celebrated "Grand Voyages", a series of publications chronicling many of the earliest expeditions to the Americas, this book, which incorporates a 1588 text by Thomas Hariot, was illustrated and published in four languages It became for many Europeans their first glimpse of the American continent Accompanying the Latin facsimile is an English text The first section is modernized from earlier versions of the English, and the second part, which accompanies the plates, is newly translated from the original Latin In addition to a valuable introduction, the book includes two illuminating essays The first, by Karen Ordahl Kupperman, examines the early American settlement and tells how a collaboration between the writer and mathematician Thomas Hariot and the artist John White (later governor of the Roanoke Colony) evolved into a rich study not only of English colonial life but of the Indian culture and the natural resources of the region The second essay, by Peter Stallybrass, uncovers new information in the much studied plates and presents an intriguing theory about the creation and importance of the engravings This facsimile edition will appeal to students and scholars in several fields of study, from American history and ethnography to fine arts and the history of the book, and will provide the reader with the best illustration of the New World as it was first presented to the Old Автор Theodor de Bry.  Wink   Шенк   Mari   ЯковИздательство: University of Virginia Press, 2007 г Мягкая обложка, 224 стр ISBN 081392605X Язык: Английский.
