Food Information, Communication and Education Eating Knowledge

Edited by Simona De Iulio, University of Lille (Laboratory GERIICO), France & Susan Kovacs, Enssib Library and Information Science school, Villeurbanne, France

This book advances our understanding of the processes of formulation, mediatisation, circulation and reception of knowledge relating to food, within specific social environments and within differing informational and communicational contexts It looks at topics including: the kinds of knowledge about food which were popularised in the past and which circulate today; the public and private sphere actors who carry out the communication and educational initiatives, as well as on the information practices, which underlie and support these initiatives; and the political and ideological implications of food information, communication and education

Alcohol, Binge Sobriety and Exemplary Abstinence

Julie Robert, Griffith University, Australia

Where did Temporary Sobriety Initiatives (TSIs) such as Dry January, FebFast and Ocsober, come from? And what is their role, if any, in prompting people to revisit their relationship with alcohol? This book considers these campaigns as part of a lifestyle movement that transcends single events and even singular national contexts It uses case studies from Australia, the USA and the UK to examine both the short history of TSIs as a response to problematic localized drinking cultures—including binge drinking—and their relationship to a much longer and transnational history of temperance activism

Feeding the People in Wartime Britain

Bryce Evans, Liverpool Hope University, UK

While the history of food on the home front in wartime Britain has mostly focused on rationing, this book reveals the importance and scale of nationwide communal dining schemes during this era Welcomed by some as a symbol of a progressive future in which ‘wasteful’ home dining would disappear, and derided by others for threatening the social order, these sites of food and eating attracted great political and cultural debate Using extensive primary source material, Feeding the People in Wartime Britain examines the cuisine served in these communal restaurants and the people who used them

A Short History of the Weimar Republic

Revised Edition

Colin Storer, University of Warwick, UK

At the same time, however, a vibrant cultural scene flourished. Incorporating original research and a synthesis of the existing historiography, this revised edition will provide students and a general readership with a clear and concise introduction to the history of the first German Republic

This book examines the narratives that surrounded cases of male suicides in 19thcentury Britain, showing how interpretations of suicidal motives were guided by gendered expectations of behaviour, and that these expectations were constructed to create meaning and understanding for family, friends and witnesses Providing an insight into how people of this era understood suicidal behaviour and motives, it challenges the assertion that suicide was seen as a distinctly feminine act, and that men who took their own lives were feminized as a result

Prison and Workhouse Reform in 19th-Century England

Lewis Darwen, Roehampton University, UK & David Orr, University of Central Lancashire, UK

The first study to analyse the joint development of the prison and the workhouse in 19th-century England, focusing on the roles played by key local reformers in shaping their design, form and function Whilst the introduction of the Gaol Act in 1823 marked a shift towards more disciplined institutional regimes, the local nature of prison and workhouse development meant no two institutions operated in the same way As a result, the nature of local prison and workhouse regimes, while impacted by national developments, was chiefly the result of complex and evolving ideas held by local figures.

From World War to Postwar Revolution, Cold War, Decolonization, and the Rise of American Hegemony, 1943-1958

Andrew N. Buchanan, University of Vermont, USA

Offering a global account of the ‘long’ World War II, this book challenges narratives of a clearly defined war period (1939-1945) followed by a postwar era dominated by the encroaching Cold War Arguing that while some aspects of the war did end abruptly in 1945, in many corners of the world ‘war’ bled directly into the ‘postwar’ such as Allied Occupation in Italy, civil war in Greece, US hegemony, and struggles for national liberation in India - showing how critical developments in the latter half of the 20th century were a direct result of the Second World War

Locating the Transatlantic in Twentieth-century Politics, Diplomacy and Culture

Edited by Gaynor Johnson, University of Kent, UK

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?

Nazi Germany, Annexed Poland and Colonial Rule

Resettlement, Germanization and Population Policies in Comparative Perspective

Rachel O'Sullivan, Leibniz Institute for Contemporary History, Germany

This book examines Nazi Germany’s expansion, population management and establishment of a racially stratified society within the Reichsgaue (Reich Districts) of Wartheland and Danzig-West Prussia in annexed Poland (1939-1945) through a colonial lens The topic of the Holocaust has thus far dominated the scholarly debate on the relevance of colonialism for our understanding of the Nazi regime . However, as opposed to solely concentrating on violence to investigate whether the Holocaust can be located within wider colonial frameworks, Rachel O’Sullivan utilizes a broader approach by investigating other aspects, such as discourses and fantasies related to expansion, settlement, ‘civilising missions’ and Germanisation, which were also intrinsic to Nazi Germany’s rule in Poland

An Intellectual History of Liberal Catholicism in Western Europe, 1789-1870

Edited by Aude Attuel-Hallade, Sorbonne University, France

This volume probes and deciphers the tensions and contradictions that underlie modern European Liberal Catholicism Taking the French Revolution as a starting point, seen in this context as the inauguration of an unprecedented sequence of dialogues between European ‘public moralists’, the book discusses the ways in which liberal Catholics loosened their bonds with religion, all the while relying on it It prompts a vital reappraisal of the political, ideological and philosophical pressures that the religious question caused in the redefinition of Western European post-revolutionary liberalism in the 19th century

Sexuality in Premodern Europe

A Social and Cultural History from Antiquity to the Early Modern Age

Franz X. Eder, University of Vienna, Austria

How did sexual relationships work before, in and outside of marriage in the pre-modern era? What problems did contraception and sexually transmitted diseases pose? How did people deal with prostitution and pornography back then? What were the possibilities for same-sex and queer desire and practice? Using numerous examples and sources from across the continent, Sexuality in Premodern Europe shows that even in earlier centuries, sexual life had an elementary significance for the coexistence of couples and communities It was just as decisive for how individuals saw themselves and others as it was for maintaining the social, economic and political order

This multi-contributor volume examines the connections between the size of states and their diplomatic place in modern Europe and beyond It brings together established and up-and-coming scholars from several countries across Europe, as well as the United States, in order to analyse this intriguing area of study

Rather than simply assuming that some states are small and others are big, The Politics of Smallness in Modern Europe delves deep into the construction of different size-based hierarchies in Europe and explores the way Europeans have thought about their own state’s size and that of their continental neighbours since the early 19th century

Voices of American Women's History from Reconstruction to the Present

Contemporary Accounts of Daily Life

Kristine Ashton Gunnell, Claremont Graduate University, USA

Gender alone has never defined women's experiences in America In this volume, Kristine Ashton Gunnell shows that, as much as gender, race, class, religion, citizenship, and sexuality have historically directed the course of women's lives in the United States for more than 200 years Women from diverse backgrounds are represented in media and documents that include pamphlets, book excerpts, personal narratives, photographs, advertisements, congressional testimonies, and Supreme Court rulings Such issues as abortion, marriage equality, domestic violence, and gender parity are shown from historical and contemporary angles, as this collection of primary sources allows readers and students to easily trace how women's lives and histories have and continue to intersect With a historical context for each selection, the book also features structured activities to help teachers with class discussion and exams, including suggestions for further reading, document analysis, essay questions, and manageable research assignments

Mugdars, Masculinity and Marketing

Feeling Dis-ease in Modern History

Experiencing Medicine and Illness

Edited by Rob Boddice, Tampere University, Finland & Bettina Hitzer, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany

Considering all sides of the medical encounter and highlighting the intersection of intellectual history and medical knowledge, of institutional atmospheres and of emotional and sensory experience, Feeling Dis-ease in Modern History presents a complex and affective account of feeling well and of feeling ill Especially occupied with the ways in which dynamics of power and authority have either validated or discounted dis-eased feelings, chapters in this book address the politics of medical expertise, gender normativity, race and class hierarches to better understand situated expressions of illness, their reception and their social, cultural and moral valuation

The Kaiser, Hitler and the Jewish Department Store

The Reich's Retailer

John F. Mueller, University of Cambridge, UK

Tracing a generation of Jews who found fortune and influence in Germany only to have their livelihoods taken from them by the Nazis in the 1930s, The Kaiser, Hitler and the Jewish Department Store draws on a range of archival source to reveal how - contrary to Nazi claims - Jewish-owned department stores were decent employers, popular with customers, and well integrated into society As such, this book cogently argues that their demise cannot solely be attributed to widespread antiSemitism In this book, John F Mueller elegantly challenges common assumptions about consumer culture and the Jewish question and provides fresh insight into the social history of modern Germany
