Insurgency and Counterinsurgency in South Asia Moeed W. Yusuf (Ed.) This book underscores the need for South Asian decision makers and relevant actors around the world to systematically examine the nature of intrastate insurgent movements. Using the ‘conflict curve’ theory of conflict evolution, ten experts native to South Asia consider the trajectories of four of the most salient armed insurgencies in a region that has experienced many such sustained conflicts and the counterinsurgent response to each. Case studies on India, Pakistan, Nepal and Sri Lanka lend important lessons on the dynamics of each conflict while collectively offering insights into how and why insurgencies occur and transform as well as how they can be prevented or resolved.

Authoring War

I Freed Myself African American Self-Emancipation in the Civil War Era

The Literary Representation of War from the Iliad to Iraq

David Williams

Kate McLoughlin

This book examines the many ways in which African Americans made the Civil War about ending slavery. Abraham Lincoln's primary goal was to save the Union rather than to absolve the institution of slavery, yet slaves who escaped to Union lines refused to fight for the Union while remaining enslaved, ultimately forcing Lincoln to disband the institution.

In Authoring War, Kate McLoughlin pioneers a bold transhistorical and cross-cultural approach to war writing. Identifying the key challenges involved in representing conflict, she deploys close rhetorical analysis to illuminate how writers have responded to them. The volume will be indispensable to scholars and students interested in war representation.

The Jew, the Cathedral and the Medieval City

The Cambridge Companion to the Italian Renaissance

Synagoga and Ecclesia in the Thirteenth Century

Michael Wyatt (Ed.)

Nina Rowe

The Renaissance in Italy continues to exercise a powerful hold on the popular imagination. This Companion presents a lively, comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to a period that witnessed both a significant revalidation of the classical past and the development of new, vernacular and increasingly secular values.

In the thirteenth century, sculptures of Synagoga and Ecclesia – paired female personifications of the Synagogue defeated and the Church triumphant – became a favoured motif on cathedral façades in France and Germany. This book explores the roots of the Synagoga-Ecclesia motif in antiquity and argues that, within the context of the cathedral façade, the figures conveyed a political message of Christian ascendancy and Jewish submission.

Philosophy 2nd Edition Andrew Janiak (Ed.) This newly expanded second edition contains excerpts from Newton's earliest optical writings, some of his unpublished reflections on the interpretation of Scriptural passages, and his correspondence with important figures in his day. Known now primarily as a scientist, Newton developed important philosophical views that were hugely influential in his era. TX 245pp

Drawing on the findings of a comparative research project, this volume tackles a set of intricate questions about the workings of impunity in India. Why does the world’s largest democracy condone systematic violations of human rights in its periphery? How do victims of abuse and survivors of sexual violence end up being denied justice? What do those on the margins – those with the wrong sex, wrong identity markers, wrong political leanings – tell us about violence by state and non-state actors? Bringing together senior academics, civil society leaders and fresh voices from the regions, the volume offers analysis – contextual, structural and gendered – and breaks new conceptual ground on the underbelly of ‘India Shining’. The volume contains testimonies that were collected during fieldwork in four Indian states.
