American Slavery on Film

Caron Knauer, LaGuardia Community College, USA

In this study of ten films that depict slavery in America, Caron Knauer analyzes how African American slavery has been and continues to be portrayed in major studio blockbusters and independent films alike. In her analysis of such films as the early silent film Uncle Tom's Cabin (1914), the groundbreaking television miniseries Roots (1977); and the Harriet Tubman biopic Harriet (2019), Knauer separates the romanticized and unrealistic depictions of slavery from the more accurate but often unflinching portrayals of its horrors, delivering a comprehensive, readable, and timely examination of enslaved African Americans and slavery in America's film history.

A Revolution in Colour Natural Dyes and Dress in Europe, c 1400-1800

Bringing together an international cast of scholars from a range of disciplines, this highly illustrated book traces the history of colour through its relationship with clothing in Europe over four centuries in the pre-modern period It reveals how, during this era, dyes spurred on aesthetic experiment, new modes of empirical observation and an intensification of globally interconnected trade The book demonstrates that merchants and craftspeople generated much of the social value for new aesthetic possibilities through dye tones, successfully arguing that this set off a ‘revolution in colour’ that intertwined with the first age of globalization and consumerism

A Transnational History of Forced Migrants in Europe

Unwilling Nomads in the Age of the Two World Wars

Edited by Bastiaan Willems, Lancaster University, UK & Michal Adam Palacz, Oxford Brookes University, UK

This book is a vital exploration of the harrowing stories of mass displacement that took place in the first half of the 20th century from the perspective of forced migrants themselves The volume brings together 15 interrelated case studies which show how the deportation, evacuation and flight of millions of people as a result of the First World War intensified rather than alleviated ethnic conflicts which culminated in population transfers on an even larger scale during and immediately after the Second World War

Perspectives on the Holocaust

Israel and the Holocaust

Avinoam J. Patt, University of Connecticut, USA

Avinoam J Patt examines the relationship between the two most significant events in modern Jewish history Is there a causal relationship between these two events, separated by only three years? Put another way, was the creation of the state of Israel made more or less likely by the Holocaust? Patt carefully considers this question, not just from the perspective of historical causality, but also with regard to its major political implications The book then goes on to document and analyse the changing nature of Israel’s relationship to the Shoah in the sixty years since the Eichmann trial

The Roma and the Holocaust

The Romani Genocide under Nazism

María Sierra, University of Seville, Spain

Half a million European Roma were exterminated by the Nazi regime; many more were subjected to a policy of racial discrimination similar to that suffered by the Jewish people However, the persecution and torment of Roma in Hitler's Europe has little presence in the history books This book places the Roma genocide in the context of the widespread violence of the Second World War, while offering an explanation that places it within a broader trajectory of anti-Roma persecution in modern societies It brings together original analysis of the memories of Roma survivors and a critical synthesis of scholarship in the field.

The Soviet Suppression of Academia

The Case of Konstantin Azadovsky

Petr A. Druzhinin, Russian Academic of Sciences, Russia

Translated by Sarah Vitali, University of Cambridge, UK

This book tells of an individual’s struggle with a highly repressive state machine Based on the hitherto inaccessible Soviet Secret Police (KBG) archives and on personal recordings, the book traces Azadovsky’s persecution from the 1970s to his arrest and imprisonment in a labour camp in the 1980s to his struggle for rehabilitation in the 1990s. Here, for the first time in English, the KBG’s secret operations against prominent intellectuals is revealed in full, horrific detail, providing new insight into the lived experience of KBG control and into the relationship between intellectual and state power in Soviet Russia

Written in tribute to the work of Professor Alan Dobson, this collection of essays brings diplomacy and the Anglo-American relationship together, considering political interactions in tandem with cultural interactions. Uniquely placed to define exactly what transatlanticism is, and to explore the ways in which this idea has evolved in the last 150 years, this book asks to what extent can it be argued that there was a transatlantic world; how can it be defined and what was unique about it?

Uprisings in Eighteenth-Century Britain

Mediation and the Transformation of Political Culture

Monika Barget, Maastricht University, The Netherlands

This study examines how the British Empire of the 18th century avoided revolution by integrating opposition agents as new spaces of power opened up Monika Barget convincingly argues that this process of constitutionalisation meant that groups from the aristocracy to the church, from the army to the people at large, were brought into the system in a way that negated the obvious, serious challenges that were posed to the Empire by the Glorious Revolution, the Jacobite Rebellion, the American Revolution, and Jacobin threats of the late-18th century Barget goes on to highlight the lasting political and legal repercussions of this process

Historical representations of Human and non-Human interactions in India

A Cultural History of Genocide in the Middle Ages

Covering the period 800-1400, this volume considers genocidal massacres and actions within the context of the pre-modern state, a time when the term “genocide” did not yet exist In considering rhetoric, discrimination, and political and legal marginalization that impacted the lives of particular peoples, the volume takes as its premise that genocidal practices and massacres can occur when social dynamism and political change challenges the identity of a community Each contribution considers genocide as caused by settling national, religious, and ethnic differences; genocide as designed to enforce or fulfil an ideology; and genocide as designed to colonize

A Cultural History of Race in Antiquity

This volume explores some of the specific ways race was defined and mobilized by different groups— including the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Persians, and Ethiopians— as they came into contact with one another during the Classical era

Drawing on a range of ancient evidence—literature, historical writing, documentary evidence, and ancient art and archaeology—this volume highlights both the complexity of ancient racial ideas and the often violent and asymmetrical power structures embedded in ancient racial representations and practices like war and the enslavement of other persons

A Cultural History of Race in the Renaissance and Early Modern Age

Through the lens of critical race theory, the essays collected here explore new analytical models, theoretical frameworks, and methodological approaches in attempting to reimagine the European Renaissance and early modern periods in terms of global expansion, awareness, and participation Centering race in these periods requires that we acknowledge the people against whom social hierarchies and differential treatment were directed This collection takes Europe as its focus, but White Europeans are not centred in it and the experiences of Black Africans, Asians, Jews and Muslims are not relegated to the margins of a shared history

A Cultural History of Race in the Reformation and Enlightenment

Edited

The essays in this volume trace the complex pattern of intellectual and cultural change from popular bigotry in the Age of Shakespeare to the racial categories developed in the works of Buffon and Kant These essays also link changes in racial thinking to other trends during this age The development of modern ideas of race corresponded with emerging conceptions of the nation state; new acceptance of religious diversity became linked with speculations on racial diversity; transforming ideologies of gender and sexuality overlapped in crucial ways with developing racial attitudes

This volume covers the cultural history of race in ‘the long 19th century’ – the age of empire and nation-state, a transformative period during which a modern world had been forged and complex and hierarchical imperial formations were challenged by the emerging national norm The concept of race emerged as a dominant epistemology in the context of the conflicting entanglement of empire and nation as two alternative but quite compatible forms of social imaginary It penetrated all spheres of life under the novel conditions of the emerging mass culture and mass society and with the sanction of anthropocentric and positivistic science

‘Home’ is a powerful idea throughout antiquity, from Odysseus’ epic journey to recover his own home, nostalgically longed-for through his long absence, to the implanting of Christianity in the domestic sphere in late antiquity Ranging across a period of over a millennium, this collection looks at the home as a force of integration: of the worlds of family and of the outsider in hospitality; of the worlds of leisure and work; of the worlds of public and private life; of the world of practical structures and furnishings and the world of religion

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Age of Enlightenment

Edited by

Covering the period between 1400 and 1650, this volume includes eight lively, original essays which trace the kaleidoscopically shifting dramatic forms, performance contexts, and social implications of tragedy throughout the Early Modern period and across geographic, political, and social references

They attend not only to the familiar cultural lenses of English and mainstream Continental dramas but also to less familiar European exempla from Croatia and Hungary

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Age of Empire

Edited by Michael Gamer, University of Pennsylvania, USA & Diego Saglia, University of Parma, Italy

Covering the period from 1800 to 1920, this volume traces the metamorphoses of tragedy in Western cultures during the bourgeois age of nations, revolutions, and empires, roughly defined by the French Revolution and the First World War Its narrative focuses on hybridization extending across media, genres, demographics, faiths both religious and secular, and national boundaries�

The essays also tell a story of how tragedy and the tragic offered multiple means of capturing the increasingly fragmented perception of reality and history that emerged in the 19th century

Covering the period between 1650 and 1800, this volume is bookended by two shockingly similar historical events: the beheading of a king, Charles I of England in 1649 and Louis XIV of France in 1793 This volume examines the way in which tragedy, which had dominated the European stage at the beginning of this period of enormous political, social and economic changes, gradually saw itself replaced by new literary forms, culminating in the gradual decline of theatrical tragedy from the heights it had reached in the 1660s

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Modern Age

Edited

Covering the period from 1920 to the present, this volume considers the degree to which the definitions, forms and media of tragedy were transformed in the modern period and how far the tragic tradition still spoke to 20th- and 21st-century challenges

While theater remains the primary focus, the essays also cover tragic representation in film, art and installation, photography, fiction and creative non-fiction, documentary reporting, political theory and activism. It also reflects increasing globalization, including intercultural encounters, various forms of hybridity, and postcolonial tragic representations
