Public Opinion and 20th-Century Diplomacy A Global Perspective
Daniel Hucker, University of Nottingham, UK Public Opinion and 20th-Century Diplomacy explores both the influence of public opinion on diplomatic decision making in international history, and its emergence as a legitimate field of study for international historians. The book uses five case studies to examine the impact of public opinion on the "high" politics of diplomacy: British policy at the Paris Peace Conference; French policy in the era of 1930s appeasement; Policy choices of the US during the Vietnam War; global responses to apartheid-era South Africa; and public attitudes across the EU regarding European integration.

Britain and the United States in Greece
Anglo-American Relations and Origins of the Cold War Spero Simeon Z. Paravantes, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg Britain, the US and Greece after World War II provides an in-depth analysis of Anglo-American diplomacy in Greece from 1946 to 1950. This book reveals how the relationship between Britain and the US developed in this formative period, arguing that Britain used the escalating tensions of the Cold War to direct US policy in Greece and encourage the Americans to take a more active role in the region. In the process, Paravantes sheds new light on how the American experience in Greece contributed to the formulation of the Truman Doctrine, the infamous NSC-68 document and the birth of the Cold War.

The Crimean War
Gavin Murray-Miller, Cardiff University, UK
Winfried Baumgart, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, Germany
Politics, Community and Culture in Transnational Context, 1775-1922 Revolutionary Europe is an original examination of radical political movements during Europe’s long 19th century. Rather than assessing revolution as a purely theoretical, socially-driven force or a structural phenomenon, the book presents revolution as a process of community building and cultural identification born from instances of acute social and political crisis. It employs both national and transnational contexts, incorporating new debates in Atlantic history, empire studies and cultural history to give a comprehensive narrative of the period from 1775 to 1922.

A Short History of the Renaissance in Northern Europe Malcolm Vale, University of Oxford, UK
The concept of a ‘Renaissance’ in the arts, in thought, and in more general culture North of the Alps often evokes the idea of a cultural transplant which was not indigenous to, or rooted in, the society from which it emerged. Yet there were certainly differences, divergences and dichotomies between North and South which have to be addressed. Here, Malcolm Vale argues for a Northern Renaissance which, while cognisant of Italian developments, displayed strong continuities with the indigenous cultures of northern Europe. But it also contributed novelties and innovations which often tended to stem from, and build upon, those continuities.

H I S T O R Y – European History
Historians at the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial Their Role as Expert Witnesses Mathew Turner The Frankfurt Auschwitz trial saw the engagement of four of the nation's leading historians as expert witnesses - Martin Broszat, Hans Buchheim, Helmut Krausnick, and Hans-Adolf Jacobsen. Following the trial, the reports of these historians were published in a bestselling book. Mathew Turner here investigates the relationship between the trial and this publication. Based on original research in several German archives and first-hand interviews, Turner addresses these connections through a study of West Germany's most famous trial and the monumental work of history produced from the engagement of historical expertise in court.

People and Policy in the British Zone of Germany, 1945–1949 David Phillips, University of Oxford, UK Educating the Germans examines the role of the British in the 'reconstruction' of education in occupied Germany from 1945 to 1949.

Transforming Occupation in the Western Zones of Germany Politics, Everyday Life and Social Interactions, 1945-55
Edited by Camilo Erlichman, Leiden University, The Netherlands & Christopher Knowles, Kings College London, UK This book provides an in-depth transnational study of power politics, daily life and social interactions in the Western Zones of occupied Germany during the aftermath of the Second World War. Adopting a history from below approach, the volume explores the personal memories and the spatial and environmental history of marginalised groups in occupied zones, highlighting regime change, nation building, transitional justice, reconstruction, and the multifaceted relationship between the occupiers and the occupied. It also provides a new perspective on the impact and legacy of German occupation, one focusing on German occupation as a shared experience.
Nazi Buildings, Cold War Traces and Governmentality in PostUnification Berlin Clare Copley, University of Central Lancashire, UK
This study reflects on post-unification responses to iconic Nazi architecture to reveal insights into power, legitimacy and memory politics in the Berlin Republic. Analysing public debates, physical interventions into the buildings and the structuring of the memory landscapes around them, the book demonstrates that memory politics impact not just upon the built environment of the post-dictatorship city, but upon the way decisions about it are made. In doing so, it makes the case for conceiving of a specifically ‘post-authoritarian’ governmentality and uses the responses to constructions like Goering’s Aviation Ministry and the Olympic complex to explore its features.

Fear in the German Speaking World, 1600-2000
Edited by Thomas Kehoe, University of New England, Australia & Michael Pickering, Trinity College, Melbourne, Australia This book addresses the nature and role of fear in the German world from the early modern period through to the 20th century. Offering the first collection that centres fear in the historical analysis of Central Europe since 1600, these essays demonstrate the importance of emotional experience to the study of the past. In doing so, the chapters reveal a complex, evolving construction of fear that is likely universally human, but also dependent upon its cultural and historical context.

Holocaust Perpetrators of the German Police Battalions
Julia Sneeringer, Queens College and the Graduate Center, City University of New York, USA
Ian Rich, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK
Hamburg from Burlesque to The Beatles, 1956-69
The Mass Murder of Jewish Civilians, 1940-1942
A Social History of Early Rock ‘n’ Roll in Germany explores the people and spaces of Hamburg's rock'n'roll scene in the 1960s. Sneeringer weaves together the histories of youth culture, sex, gender, and the media, to reveal that transnational encounters in the St. Pauli district produced a musical style that provided emotional and physical liberation, and challenged powerful forces of conservatism and conformity with effects that transformed the world for decades to come.
Holocaust Perpetrators of the German Police Battalions examines the structures and actions of two previously unstudied German police battalions in Poland and Ukraine between 1940 to 1942. Using these case studies, Ian Rich draws attention to the actions and motivations of individual lower-ranking policemen who participated in the mass murder of Jews during the Holocaust. He illuminates their pivotal roles as organizers, educators and role models, and the ways they were able to influence their subordinates to carry out these atrocities.

Censorship in Czech and Hungarian Academic Publishing, 1969-1989 Snakes and Ladders
Libora Oates-Indruchová, University of Graz, Austria
Ranging from WWII to the fall of the Berlin Wall, Roman Krakovsky's innovative analysis considers the impact of Stakhanovism, the impossible-to-achieve production targets intended to assert socialism's future potential; the attempt to replace Sunday's Christian attributes with socialist ones; and the profound changes brought about to the public and private spheres, including the culture of informing and the ways this was circumvented. Across a wide range of case studies, State and Society in Communist Czechoslovakia demonstrates both the far-reaching extent of the communist vision and the inherent flaws and contradictions that gradually destabilised it.
Drawing on primary source material from the Editorial Board of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences and policy state documents, Libora Oates-Indruchová explores to what extent scholarly publishing in state-socialist Czechoslovakia and Hungary was affected by censorship. This book provides a fascinating insight into the ambivalent beneficial and detrimental effects of censorship on scholarly work from the Prague Spring of 1968 to the Velvet Revolution of 1989, as well as reflecting on the cultural significance of scholarly publishing in the light of current debates on the neoliberal academia and the future of the humanities.

H I S T O R Y – European History
Warsaw Pact Intervention in the Third World Aid and Influence in the Cold War
Edited by Philip E. Muehlenbeck, George Washington University, USA & Natalia Telepneva, University College London, UK This important book examines the agency of Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania during the 'discovery' of the 'Third World' from the 1950s to the 1970s. Drawing from a diverse range of overlooked archival sources, contributors study the diplomacy of the eastern and central European communist states to reveal their myriad motivations and goals which were, importantly, often in direct conflict with Soviet directives. This work, the first revisionist review of the role of the junior members as a whole, will be of interest to all scholars of the Cold War.
The Fall of the House of Speyer The Story of a Banking Dynasty
George W. Liebmann, Independent Scholar, USA George W. Liebmann here tells the dramatic tale of the plight of the Speyers, a German family of Jewish descent that owned the 3rd largest investment banking firm in the United States.

State, Nationalism, and the Jewish Communities of Modern Greece Evdoxios Doxiadis, Simon Fraser University, Canada
Education and Political Manipulation in the British Empire Antigone Heraclidou
Based on the evidence of numerous Greek consular reports, speeches, memoirs, political interviews and coverage of the status and treatment of the communities by the international Jewish press, State, Nationalism, and the Jewish Communities of Modern Greece sketches a detailed picture of the Greek political elite and the state’s bureaucratic view of the various Jewish communities. By focusing on the state, though not ignoring popular attitudes, the book successfully argues that the Greek state followed policies that did not conform, and often were in opposition to, popular attitudes when it came to minorities and the Jews in particular.
Imperial Control in Cyprus charts the cultural and educational aspects of British colonial rule in Cyprus and analyses what these policies reveal about internal struggles on the island between 1931 and 1960. Cyprus had been under British occupation since 1878, but it was in the 1930s that educational policies acquired a strong political significance. Gradually, the education system reflected the shifting political developments in colonial Cyprus and by the start of the 1950s, schools had become a breeding ground for discontent. Antigone Heraclidou provides a new dimension to understandings of the deadlock that was to prove one of the most intractable in the final years of the British Empire.

Imperial Control in Cyprus
Special Operations in Norway SOE and Resistance in World War II Ian Herrington Between 1940 and 1945, Britain’s Special Operations Executive (SOE) carried out sabotage and organised resistance across occupied Europe. Over 5 years, SOE sent over 500 agents into Norway to carry out a range of operations from sabotage and assassination to attempts to organise an underground guerrilla army. This book is the first multi-archival, international academic analysis of SOE’s policy and operations in Norway and the influences that shaped them, challenging previous interpretations of the relationship between this organisation and both the Norwegian authorities and the Milorg resistance movement.

The Decline of the Congress System
Clashing with Fascism
Miroslav Šedivý, University of West Bohemia, Czech Republic
Louie Dean Valencia-García, Texas State University, USA
In The Decline of the Congress System, Mirolsav Šedivý analyses Austrian Chancellor Metternich’s policy towards the pre-united Italian states from 1830 to 1848. With an emphasis on geopolitics and international law and drawing attention to the unsettled role of the Italian states within European diplomacy in the period, this book explains why the Italian peninsula never developed into the stable region that Metternich hoped to establish at the heart of the Congress System.
This book explores the role of young people in shaping a democratic Spain, focusing on their urban performances of dissent, their consumption of various forms of censored literature, and their involvement in a newly developed punk scene. This antiauthoritarian youth culture reflected a mixture of sexual liberation, a rejection of the perceived 'backwardness' of dictatorship, a reinvention of native Iberian pluralistic traditions and a burgeoning global youth culture that connected the USA, Britain, France and Spain. Antiauthoritarian Youth Culture in Francoist Spain offers a fascinating account of Madrid's youth culture and its role in the transition to democracy.

Sicily
Modern Italy's Founding Fathers
Jeremy Dummett
Steven F. White, Mount St. Mary's University, USA
Island of Beauty and Conflict With settlers from early tribes to the Greeks and Romans, through the Arabs, Normans, French, Spanish and finally Italians, the island’s culture has been changed dramatically by each of the foreign powers. In this book, Jeremy Dummett writes an engrossing history of the entire island, through excess of power, cultural prosperity and flourishing art, to extreme poverty and oppression in times of war and invasion. Dummett delves into the stories and personalities that make up this extraordinary island, with a great cathedral and temples built to impress but never finished; Sicily uncovers the background behind the island’s beauty.

The Anglo-Florentines
The British in Tuscany, 1814-1860 Diana Webb & Tony Webb This book gives a fuller picture than has hitherto been attempted of the variety of Britons who became residents of Florence between the end of the Napoleonic wars and the absorption of Tuscany into the kingdom of Italy. Many of them were leisured, and some aristocratic; a few were writers or artists; the British clergy and physicians who ministered to them were gentlemen. Many others were shopkeepers, merchants and even engineers. Some achieved a more profound knowledge of the country (and its language) than others, but all were affected to some degree by the momentous events which led to Italian unification.

The Making of a Postwar Republic
This book offers a fresh perspective on the genesis of the Italian republic as viewed through the efforts of its three most influential leaders: Christian Democrat Alcide De Gasperi, Socialist Pietro Nenni and Communist Palmiro Togliatti. The author demonstrates how De Gasperi and his fellow statesmen’s shared experience of Fascist oppression, belief in popular sovereignty and ability to compromise despite ideological differences enabled the creation of Italy’s postwar republic. Drawing on personal papers, speeches and writings as well as governmental and party archives, he shows how these leaders' political practices and customs continue to define Italian parliamentary life today.

Britain, France and Europe, 1945-1975 Almost Allies
Anthony Adamthwaite, University of California, Berkeley, USA In the aftermath of the Second World War, France seized the initiative in European construction, gaining ascendancy in Western Europe; Britain became the sick man. How and why did the French outsmart their arch-rivals? Drawing on American, British and French official records, together with private papers and interviews, Anthony Adamthwaite explores the reasons for French success. As well as reassessing Britain’s membership bids for the European Community, the comparative study evaluates key influences: the mentality of decision makers; leadership styles; the post-1945 international system; policy making machinery; the ‘democratic deficit’ in British and French politics and public opinion.

The Making of England
A New History of the Anglo-Saxon World Mark Atherton, Oxford University, UK During the 10th century England began to emerge as a distinct country with an identity that was both part of, yet separate from, 'Christendom'. Here, Mark Atherton shows how the stories, legends, biographies and chronicles of Anglo-Saxon England reflected both this exciting time of innovation as well as the myriad lives, loves and hates of the people who wrote them. Bringing a volatile age to vivid and muscular life, Atherton argues that it was the vernacular of Alfred the Great, as much as Viking war, that truly forged the nation.

Memory and Heritage in the Isle of Man, Orkney and the Channel Islands In this remarkable contribution to British Island Studies, Daniel Travers pursues these histories and their commemoration across numerous local sites of memory: museums, heritage sites, public spaces. He examines the way these island identities assert their own distinctiveness over the British wartime story, and ultimately the way they fit into the ongoing discourse about how the memory of the Second World War has been constructed since 1945.

Seeking Love in Modern Britain charts the emergence of the modern British single through an account of the dating industry that sprang up to serve her and him from the 1970s onwards. It shows how – amid a period of unprecedented sexual and social change – ‘the single’ became a key unisex identity and lifestyle. Refuting the widespread idea that the Internet invented modern dating, this book uses an eclectic and engaging range of first-person accounts and snapshots from the time to show that the story of contemporary romance, mediated courtship and singleness began in a time long before Tinder.

Why do children’s authors want to write about the war? Do they successfully represent the reality of the past, and is accuracy important?

Neo-Tories
The Revolt of British Conservatives against Democracy and Political Modernity (1929-1939) Bernhard Dietz, Johannes Gutenberg-University, Germany The danger to British democracy in the interwar period came from a different source to that which has thus far been assumed: from a network of radical Conservatives who challenged the political system and sought to replace it with an authoritarian corporate state. In this book this network is systematically analysed for the first time and its members are given a name: Neo-Tories. With strong links to the European right, yet a minority back home, this group of British Conservatives are all the more fascinating today because it is on their ultimate failure that the success of British democracy rested.

Tradition, Empire and the Forging of the Conservative Right N.C. Fleming, University of Worcester, UK Britannia's Zealots is the first book-length study to examine the Tory Right from the late19th century to the present day. Neil Fleming explores the overlooked ways in which Tory Right parliamentarians have shaped their party’s policies and propaganda, in and out of office, and their relationships with the press and ordinary activists. It demonstrates that this influence could be circumscribing, and on occasion highly disruptive, with consequences which remain relevant for today’s Conservative party.

Capital and Labour in Victorian England Manufacturing Consensus
Donna Loftus, The Open University, UK Capital and Labour in Victorian England explores how accounts of industrial society evolved in the 19th century and how they inspired reform movements designed to accommodate the conflicts and contradictions that were a feature of industrial capitalism. It traces the rise of capitalist utopianism in the mid-century and looks at how such visions fell apart in the face of industrial unrest, organised labour and more aggressive forms of capitalism. This book reveals and challenges how certain understandings of the past were accepted and offers new interventions by drawing on a range of sources.

The WRNS in Wartime
The Women's Royal Naval Service 19171945 Hannah Roberts, Godalming College, UK The Women's Royal Naval Service (WRNS) was created in 1917, re-formed in 1938 and maintained after 1945. This book determines for the first time the reasons for the expansion and contraction of the service, the impact of key individuals, and in turn, the influence the service had on its members. Hannah Roberts offers new insights into a previously under-studied British military institution, which celebrated its centenary in 2017. She shows how political and military decision-making within the fluctuating national security situation, coupled with the growing cultural acceptability of women taking on military roles, allowed for the unprecedented growth of the service in World War II. Using 21 new oral histories and a multitude of archived personal documents, this book demonstrates the vital importance of the Women's Royal Naval Service in both the world wars.

Ireland and the Great War A Social and Political History
Niamh Gallagher, St Catharine’s College at the University of Cambridge, UK In Ireland and the Great War Niamh Gallagher draws upon a formidable array of original research to offer a radical new reading of Irish involvement in the world’s first total war. Exploring the ‘home front’ and Irish diasporic communities in Canada, Australia, and Britain, Gallagher reveals that substantial support for the Allied war effort continued largely unabated not only until November 1918, but afterwards as well. Often this was a joint effort between Protestants and Catholics, who collaborated in various ways to support an international cause they both believed in. Rich in social texture and with fascinating new case studies of Irish participation in the conflict, this book has the makings of a major rethinking of Ireland’s twentieth century.

The Old Believers in Imperial Russia
Myth Making in the Soviet Union and Modern Russia
Peter T. De Simone, Utica College, USA
Vicky Davis, Independent Scholar, UK
Oppression, Opportunism and Religious Identity in Tsarist Moscow While scholars have commonly painted the history of the Old Believers as one of survival in the face of persistent persecution, Peter De Simone offers a more nuanced picture. Based on research into extensive, yet mostly unknown, archival materials in Moscow, he shows the Old Believers as versatile and opportunistic, and demonstrates that they actively engaged with, and even challenged, the very notion of the spiritual and ideological place of Moscow in Imperial Russia. Ranging in scope from Peter the Great to Lenin, this book will be of use to all scholars of Russian and Orthodox Church history.

H I S T O R Y – Russian History
A Modern History of Russian Childhood
Remembering World War II in Brezhnev’s Hero City The 1943 battle to free the Soviet Black Sea port of Novorossiisk from German occupation was fought from the beach head of Malaia Zemlia, where the young Colonel Leonid Brezhnev saw action. Through the prism of this provincial Russian town, Vicky Davis sheds light on the character of Brezhnev as perceived by his people, and on the process of memory for the ordinary Russian citizen. This book represents a much-needed departure from the study of myth and memory in larger cities of the former Soviet Union, adding nuance to the existing portrait of Brezhnev and demonstrating the continued importance of war memory in Russia today.

Russia in the Time of Cholera
Disease under Romanovs and Soviets John P. Davis, Hopkinsville Community College, Kentucky, USA Drawing on extensive archival research and the so-called 'material turn' in historiography, John P. Davis demonstrates that Romanov-era physicians' environmental approach to disease was not ill-grounded but born of pragmatic scientific considerations. The physicians confronted cholera in a broad and sophisticated way, essentially laying the foundations for the system of public health that the Soviets successfully used to defeat cholera during the New Economic Policy (1922-1928). By focusing for the first time on the conclusion of the cholera epoch in Russia, Davis adds an indispensable layer of nuance to the existing conception of Romanov Russia and its complicated legacy in the Soviet period.

Writing History in Late Imperial Russia Scholarship and the Literary Canon
Frances Nethercott, University of St. Andrews, UK Grounding its analysis in the works of historians Timofei Granovskii, Vasilii Klyuchevskii, and Ivan Grevs, Writing History in Late Imperial Russia explores how Russian thinkers--being sensitive to the social, cultural, and psychological resonances of creative writing--drew on the literary canon as a valuable resource for understanding the past. The result is a novel and nuanced discussion of the influences of literature on the development of Russian historiography, which shines new light both on late Imperial attitudes to historical investigation and considers the legacy of such historical practice on Russia today.

The Communist Party in the Russian Civil War A Political History
Gayle Lonergan, Higher School of Economics, Russia This book challenges the traditional historical view that the communist party in-fighting during the Russian civil war was a dualistic struggle between Trotsky’s democratically inclined party and the bureaucratic Stalinist version. Rather, what emerges from Lonergan’s meticulous research is a party in constant flux, whose unstable membership in many ways actually pushed the leadership into an increasingly authoritarian stance. Examining the six party congresses that took place during the civil war and drawing from the political and personal archives of various party members, this book is a much-needed re-assessment of the Soviet Union’s formative political years.

Gender and Survival in Soviet Russia
Nomads and Soviet Rule
A Life in the Shadow of Stalin’s Terror
Alun Thomas, Staffordshire University, UK
Ludmila Miklashevskaya
The nomads of Central Asia were already well accustomed to life under the power of a distant capital when the Bolsheviks fomented revolution on the streets of Petrograd. Yet after the fall of the Tsar, the nature, ambition and potency of that power would change dramatically, ultimately resulting in the near eradication of Central Asian nomadism. Based on extensive primary source work in Almaty, Bishkek and Moscow, Nomads and Soviet Rule charts the development of this volatile and brutal relationship and challenges the often repeated view that events followed a linear path of gradually escalating violence.
Edited and Translated by Elaine MacKinnon, University of West Georgia, USA Accompanied by a translator’s introduction and historical explanatory notes, Gender and Survival in Soviet Russia sheds new light on the relationship between power, gender, and society in 20th-century Russia. From her Jewish upbringing in Odessa to her exile and false imprisonment in a labour camp, this book tells the important story of Ludmila Miklashevskaya’s persecution in Soviet Russia and provides insight into Soviet artistic, intellectual, and political life set against the tumultuous backdrop of revolutions, wars, and repressive regimes. It is thus a vital primary resource for scholars of modern Russian history and gender studies.

This interdisciplinary volume is important reading for all scholars of modern Russia as well as those interested in international criminality and penology.

The Dutch East India Company in Early Modern Japan Gift Giving and Diplomacy
Michael Laver, Rochester Institute of Technology, USA Michael Laver examines how the giving of exotic gifts in early modern Japan facilitated Dutch trade by ascribing legitimacy to the shogunal government and by playing into the shogun’s desire to create a worldview centered on a Japanese tributary state. The book reveals how formal and informal gift exchange also created a smooth working relationship between the Dutch and the Japanese bureaucracy, allowing the politically charged issue of foreign trade to proceed relatively uninterrupted for over two centuries.

Religion, Rebels and Jihad
Ilyse R. Morgenstein Fuerst, University of Vermont, USA While jihad has been the subject of countless studies in the wake of recent terrorist attacks, scholarship on the topic has so far paid little attention to South Asian Islam and, more specifically, its place in South Asian history. Seeking to address these gaps, Ilyse R. Morgenstein Fuerst examines the 1857 Rebellion, and explores how interpretations of the Rebellion as jihad shaped subsequent discourses, definitions and codifications of Islam in the region. Drawing on extensive primary source analysis, this unique take on Islamic identities in South Asia will be invaluable to scholars working on British colonial history, India and the Raj, as well as to those studying Islam in the region and beyond.

Martyn Smith addresses Japan’s evolving nationalism and national identity in relation to its newly rising consumerism through a study of the transformation of the print media and the market for weekly and monthly magazines. Examining housewife magazines, news magazines and publications aimed at young people, Smith shows how the relationship of nationalism to everyday life is best understood by taking into account the changing nature of consumption. By presenting an alternative to the traditional ‘topdown’ narrative of state-driven economic nationalism, this book makes a unique contribution to the study of postwar Japanese history and Japanese nationalism.

Engineering Asia
Technology, Colonial Development, and the Cold War Order Edited by Hiromi Mizuno, University of Minnesota, USA, Aaron S. Moore, Arizona State University, USA & John DiMoia, Seoul National University, South Korea
Drawing upon written and oral Japanese, Indonesian, Dutch and English-language sources from both wartime and the postwar period, this book narrates the Japanese occupation of Indonesia as a transnational intersection between two complex Asian societies. It places this narrative in a larger wartime context of domestic, regional, and global crisis that was not only military, but also social, cultural, and economic: a crisis of imperial and liberal capitalist modernity itself. Breaking new ground interpretatively as well as thematically and narratively, Mark’s monumental study is vital for students and scholars of modern Asian history.
Weaving together chapters on Imperial Japan’s wartime mobilization, Asia's first wave of postwar decolonization and Cold War geopolitical conflict, Engineering Asia demonstrates how Asia’s present prosperity was born not of a so-called ‘economic miracle’ but of violent and dynamic eras of the 20th century. The book argues that what continued to operate throughout these tumultuous eras were engineering networks of technology and it highlights how these networks helped shape Asia’s contemporary economic landscape.

Karen Radner
Much of our perception of Babylon in the West is filtered through the poignant echoes of loss and longing that resonate in the Hebrew Bible. The lamenting exiles of Judah craved a return to their lost homeland after the sack of Jerusalem in 587 BC and their forcible removal by Nebuchadnezzar to the alien floodlands of the Euphrates. But to see Babylon only as an adjunct to Old Testament history (while it may be fascinating for the correspondences between – for example – Hammurabi’s famous law code and the Book of Deuteronomy, or the biblical story of the Flood and the Epic of Gilgamesh), is misleading. By the time ill-fated Judaean ruler Hezekiah rebelled against his Babylonian overlord, and was blinded, bound and hustled off to captivity in the city that the Book of Revelation portrays as an epicentre of depravity and harlotry, Babylon had already, for fifteen hundred years, enjoyed a rich and independent history. A Short History of Babylon explores the everchanging city that shaped world history for two millennia.

The Wiriyamu Massacre An Oral History, 1960-1974
Mustafah Dhada, California State University, USA Using primary oral narratives, this book shines a light on the infamous Portuguese massacre of Wiriyamu in colonial Mozambique in 1972. Fifteen carefully curated testimonies are presented, covering Portugal’s last colonial war in Mozambique and the nationalist response that led to the massacre. Survivors share their escape from Wiriyamu, while data collectors and journalists tell of their struggle to collect evidence and defend the truth about the killings in the international press. The Wiriyamu Massacre contextualizes the unique importance of oral evidence and reveals the in-depth interview methods used to gather the testimonies and subsequently curate the transcript into engaging narratives.

Gender, Power and Sexual Abuse in the Pacific
Rev. Simpson’s “Improper Liberties” Emily J. Manktelow, University of Kent, UK In 1843 on the island of Tahiti, the evangelical missionary Rev. Alexander Simpson was accused of taking ‘improper liberties’ with several of the female students under his care. Exploring Rev. Simpson's case, this book provides insights into the gender, power and racial dynamics of a case of sexual abuse on the frontiers of European colonialism. In so doing it explores the social and sexual context of clerical abuse, considers the hierarchies of gender and power that determined how the case was handled, and investigates the nature of colonialism, gender and abuse in the 19th century.

H I S T O R Y – Medieval History
Valkyrie
The Women of the Viking World Jóhanna Katrín Friðriksdóttir, Yale University, USA Valkyries: the female supernatural beings that choose who dies and who lives on the battlefield. They protect some, but guide spears, arrows and sword blades into the bodies of others. The fateful agency of women is widespread in Norse sources. Norse sagas and viking myths tell stories of war and strife, loyalty and betrayal, murder and revenge, privation and success. Valkyrie will introduce readers to the diverse and fascinating texts recorded in medieval Iceland, a culture able to imagine women in all kinds of roles carrying power, not just in this world, but pulling the strings in the other-world, too.

Women, Writing and Religion in England and Beyond, 650–1100 Diane Watt, University of Surrey, UK
Women’s literary histories usually start in the later Middle Ages, but recent scholarship has shown that actually women were at the heart of the emergence of the English literary tradition. Women, Writing and Religion in England and Beyond, 650–1100 focuses on the period before the so-called ‘Barking Renaissance’ of women’s writing in the 12th century. By examining the surviving evidence of women’s authorship, as well as the evidence of women’s engagement with literary culture more widely, Diane Watt argues that early women’s writing was often lost, suppressed, and deliberately destroyed. This book provides a much-needed look at women’s writing in the early medieval period that is crucial to understanding women’s literary history more broadly.

County and Nobility in Norman Italy Power and Authority in the Kingdom of Sicily Hervin Fernández-Aceves, Leeds Humanities Research Institute, UK Whilst it is often seen as centralised and administratively advanced, the genesis and social structures of the Norman Kingdom of Sicily were constantly fraught between the forces of royal power and local aristocracy authority. This book is the result of thorough research conducted on the vast source material for the history of this fascinating 12th century world. Starting with the activities of Norman counts and the configuration of the counties, it explores how social control operated in these nodes of regional authority, and argues that the Sicilian monarchy relied on the counties (and the counts' authority) to keep the realm united and exercise control.

The Irish Scholarly Presence at St. Gall Networks of Knowledge in the Early Middle Ages
Sven Meeder, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands The Carolingian period represented a Golden Age for the abbey of St Gall, an Alpine monastery in modern-day Switzerland. Among its books are several of Irish origin, while others contain works of learning originally written in Ireland. This study explores the practicalities of the spread of this Irish scholarship to St. Gall and the reception it received once there. In doing so, this book for the first time investigates a part of the network of knowledge that fed this important centre of learning with scholarship and offers a new viewpoint on the spread and reception of Irish learning in the Carolingian period.

Writing Battles
New Perspectives on Warfare and Memory in Medieval Europe Edited by Máire Ní Mhaonaigh, University of Cambridge, UK, Rory Naismith, King's College London, UK & Elizabeth Ashman Rowe, University of Cambridge, UK Battles have long featured prominently in historical consciousness, as moments when the balance of power was seen to have tipped, or when aspects of collective identity were shaped. But how have perspectives on warfare changed? How similar are present day ideologies of warfare to those of the Medieval period? Looking back over a thousand years of British, Irish and Scandinavian battles, Writing Battles examines how different times and cultures have reacted to war, considering the changing roles of religion and technology in the experience and memorialisation of conflict.

A History of Sorcery and Treason
Francis Young, Independent Scholar, UK Magic as a Political Crime in Medieval and Early Modern England offers the first concerted historical analysis of allegations of the use of magic to either harm or kill the monarch, or else manipulate the course of political events in England, between the 14th century and the dawn of the Enlightenment. This book addresses a subject usually either passed over or elided within the study of witchcraft. It argues that, while charges of treasonable magic certainly were used to destroy reputations or to ensure the convictions of undesirables, magic was also perceived as a genuine threat by English governments into the Civil War era and beyond.

Food, Religion and Communities in Early Modern Europe Christopher Kissane, London School of Economics & Political Science, UK
Food, Religion and Communities in Early Modern Europe employs three key case studies in Castile, Zurich and Shetland to explore what food can reveal about the wider social and cultural history of early modern communities undergoing religious upheaval. Christopher Kissane uses a three-part structure focused on the major historical subjects of the Inquisition, the Reformation and witchcraft to examine issues of identity, culture, gender, symbolism, and community. This is an important study for food historians and anyone seeking to understand the significant issues and events in early modern Europe from a fresh perspective.

Childhood and Modernity in Cold War Mexico City
Eileen Ford, California State University, Los Angeles, USA Childhood and Modernity in Cold War Mexico City traces the transformations that occurred between 1934 and 1968 in Mexico through the lens of childhood. Eileen Ford uses a wealth of primary sources, ranging from oral histories to photojournalism, to reconstruct the reality of childhood in Mexico City during a period of changing global attitudes towards childhood and well-being.

It examines these transformations by focusing on the meaning and intellectual importance of social difference, both as a resource and as an obstacle, for diverse political and intellectual actors.

POWs and Sexual Desire in the United States during the Second World War Matthias Reiss, University of Exeter, UK This is the first book to examine the nature, extent and impact of the sexual activities of Axis prisoners of war in the United States during the Second World War.

By focusing on the fight against fraternisation and same-sex activities, this study treads new ground. It highlights the transnational impact of fraternisation, and argues that the prisoners’ sojourn in the United States also influenced American society as captivity became a site for non-violent encounters in times of war.

This book examines the ways in which white and black southerners used historical material to define and understand themselves. Taking as its thematic starting point the Confederacy's defeat in 1865, it builds on the idea that memories are produced out of experience before reshaping it. Using diaries, letters, reminiscences, magazines, fiction and film, this study illustrates how the creation of the Lost Cause was at once political and emotional, not only reflecting the political, economic and racial interests it served, but also reflecting the genuine desire to compensate for what had been loved and lost.

The Campaign to Control Warfare, 18531914 James Crossland, Liverpool John Moores University, UK War, Law and Humanity tells the story of the transatlantic campaign to either mitigate the destructive forces of the battlefield, or prevent wars from being waged altogether, in the decades prior to the disastrous summer of 1914. Starting with the Crimean War of the 1850s, James Crossland traces this campaign to control warfare from the scandalous barracks of Scutari to the shambolic hospitals of the American Civil War, from the bloody sieges of Paris and Erzurum to the combative conference halls of Geneva and The Hague, uncovering the intertwined histories of a generation of humanitarians, surgeons, pacifists and utopians who were shocked into action by the barbarism and depravities of war.

Nations, Identities and the First World War Shifting Loyalties to the Fatherland
Edited by Nico Wouters, Centre for War and Contemporary Society, Belgium & Laurence van Ypersele, Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium This study examines the significance of ‘the fatherland’ notion during the First World War and its aftermath. The book combines chapters on broad topics like patriotism, nation, and minorities at war with more specific case studies in order to deepen our understanding of how this nationalist concept remained an essential building block of the culture of total war in Europe at this time. This transnational volume also reveals and develops a range of insightful connections between the themes it covers, as well as between different groups, countries and regions within Europe.

World War I in Central and Eastern Europe
Politics, Conflict and Military Experience Edited by Judith Devlin, University College Dublin, Republic of Ireland, John Paul Newman, NUI Maynooth, Republic of Ireland & Maria Falina, University College Dublin, Republic of Ireland In the English language World War I has largely been analysed through the lens of the Western Front. This book examines wartime experiences and the memory of war in the East. Analysing soldiers' letters and diaries to discover the nature and impact of displacement and refugee status on memory, this volume offers a basis for comparison between experiences in these two areas. It also provides intra-regional comparisons that are missing from current research. Was the war in the East wholly 'other'? Were soldiers in this region as alienated as those in the West? Did they see themselves as citizens and was there continuity between their civilian and military identities? How did soldiers and citizens in this region experience and react to the traumas and upheavals of war and with what consequences for the post-war era? In seeking to answer these questions and others, this volume significantly adds to our understanding of World War I as experienced in Central and Eastern Europe.

The Jazz War
Radio, Nazism and the Struggle for the Airwaves in World War II Will Studdert, Independent Scholar, UK Labelled degenerate by Hitler's cultural apparatus, jazz was adopted by the Allies to win the hearts and minds of the German public; it was also used by the Nazi Minister for Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, to deliver a message of Nazi cultural and military superiority. Here, Will Studdert shows how jazz both helped and hindered the Allied cause. As such, this book will appeal to students of the history of jazz and broadcasting, cultural studies, and the history of World War II.
