• Recasts mid-twentieth-century national radicalism as partially motivated by local resistance to nationalization • This interdisciplinary study of nationalism will appeal to scholars of sociology and political science • Provides new insights into the relationship between Nazi Germany and international political organizations on the Jewish question Publications of the German Historical Institute

German Soldiers and the Occupation of France, 1940–1944

Jewish European History between Nation and Empire Malachi Haim Hacohen | Duke University, North Carolina

Julia S. Torrie | St Thomas University, New Brunswick

For four years, German soldiers not only stood guard over and fought in France, but also lived their lives. While the everyday experiences of the occupied French population are well-documented, we know much less about the occupiers. The lives of ordinary German soldiers offer new insights into the occupation of France and the history of Nazism.

• A corrective to standard accounts of the German occupation of France that cover German policy-makers only • Argues that occupied France was integrally linked to the larger war • The book is based on a wide variety of primary sources, including soldiers’ letters, photographs and memoirs Studies in the Social and Cultural History of Modern Warfare

September 2018 228 x 152 mm 300pp 978-1-108-47128-2 Hardback £75.00 / US$105.00

A compelling account of northwest Russia under Nazi occupation, this book highlights the fragility of Soviet identity and loyalty during the ‘Great Patriotic War’. Having lived through collectivization and Stalinist terror, many Soviet Russians invested hope and effort in the German promise of a better life without the Bolsheviks.

• A clear and readable account of the Russian experience under Nazi rule • Draws on both Soviet and German archival sources, as well as eyewitness accounts, diaries, and memoirs • Reconsiders the relationship of ordinary Russians to Stalinism and to the German occupation

The Stalinist Era

European histories have traditionally marginalised the Jews, while Jewish history has told an exclusively Jewish story.

• A major rereading of Jewish history and culture throughout European history • An overview of two millennia of Jewish-Christian relations • Attempts to ‘Europeanise’ traditional rabbinic discourses November 2018 228 x 152 mm 585pp 10 b/w illus.

Colonizing Consent Rape and Political Authority in South Africa in the Nineteenth Century Elizabeth Thornberry | The Johns Hopkins University

By systematically documenting the emergence of politicized homophobia in Malawi, its appropriation by political elites as a strategy to consolidate power, and its effect on different social movements, Currier challenges Western portrayals of Africa as a hotbed of homophobia.

• An account of the rise of politicized homophobia in Malawi, designed to show that it is not an intrinsic part of ‘African culture’ • Highlights how homophobia has been deployed as a political weapon by leaders across Africa • Documents how politicized homophobia affects different social movements – HIV/AIDS, human rights, LGBT rights, and women’s movements – and LGBT people

Drawing on more than a thousand cases from a diverse set of courts, Thornberry provides a ground-breaking social and political history of rape in colonial South Africa, as well as an important case study for comparative legal history, histories of sexuality, and public policy on sexual violence.

• Incorporates evidence from over five hundred rape cases • Draws on records from civil and criminal courts, customary courts, and church displinary proceedings, thereby capturing a broad legal landscape • Reads evidence of court cases alongside political debates

Doing Business in Cameroon

A Developmental History Bill Freund | University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

An Anatomy of Economic Governance Jose Maria Muñoz | University of Edinburgh

Focussing on South Africa’s drive for modernisation and industrialisation throughout the twentieth century, Bill Freund shows that the country can actually be viewed as a ‘developmental state’. This unique history further marries the economic indicators with social history in order to bring the economic data alive with people and places.

• Brings to the fore economic development as a key motivating factor in post-1940 South Africa • Shows how economic development can be involved with sustaining and extending inequality • Marries economic indicators with social history to bring back people and places to the realm of economic history

Focusing on four distinct sectors (cattle trade, transport, public contracts and NGO work), Muñoz combines an ethnographic study of business practices with a lucid analysis of policies and legal rules to provide an in-depth look at how businesses and state bureaucracies cope with unpredictability in times of crisis and reform.

• Builds on intensive fieldwork engagement sustained over a period of ten years • Makes sense of the legal aspects of doing business • Focuses on diverse economic sectors that are often treated separately

Malaria and Victorian Fictions of Empire

Edited by Carolyn Williams | Rutgers University, New Jersey

Jessica Howell | Texas A & M University

Poetry, Media, and the Material Body Autopoetics in Nineteenth-Century Britain Ashley Miller | Albion College, Michigan

This book investigates the often surprising intersections and overlaps between three infrequently related fields: studies of poetry, studies of media, and studies of the body. At these intersections a neglected nineteenth-century theory of poetry becomes visible, one that imagines the body as a reproductive medium for poetry.

• Provides an articulate exploration of the tradition in nineteenth-century that identifies the human body as a material medium for poetry • Combines an exploration of media theory, theories of physiology and literary theory to further understanding of written forms of creativity that appear independent of the author’s will • Includes close readings of the works of nineteenth-century poets including William Wordsworth (1770–1850), Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) and Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809–92)

Exploring a topic at the intersection of science, philosophy and literature, this book traces the history of induction – manipulating textual evidence by selective quotation – as a writerly practice, and accounts for mixtures of poetry and prose in the work of major Romantic-period writers.

• Explores how and why authors of Romantic-era literature adopted compositional practices from experimental science • Delivers a new perspective on a long-standing area of inquiry by reconsidering the importance of Enlightenment empiricism to Romantic period literature • Investigates the connection between contemporary concerns about digital media and early nineteenth-century debates about mass print Cambridge Studies in Romanticism, 120

The Cambridge History of Music

The Cambridge History of Sixteenth-Century Music Edited by Iain Fenlon | King’s College, Cambridge

This book presents new methodologies to explore medieval processes of musical and poetic creation, from plainchant and vernacular French songs to organa, motets and clausulae. It engages with questions of text-music relationships, liturgy and the development of notational technologies, exploring authorship, originality, practices of quotation and reworking.

This volume in The Cambridge History of Music series aims to recover how people in the sixteenth century experienced music as part of their daily lives, and in doing so goes beyond traditional histories of genres, composers or individual countries to shed new light on the varied contexts of Renaissance music.

• Provides an alternative to conventional ‘composers and works’ histories of music • Readers can understand the material without having to be able to read music • Offers chapters by ten different authors who are specialists in their respective fields

TEXTBOOK

Relational Egalitarianism

Philosophy of Language

Living as Equals Kasper Lippert-Rasmussen | Aarhus Universitet, Denmark

Zoltán Gendler Szabó | Yale University, Connecticut

Many contemporary political philosophers reject the so-called distributive paradigm of justice, and believe that it should be replaced with the view that, fundamentally, justice is about social relations. This book refines and assesses this view. It proposes a novel and unique form of egalitarianism, which includes elements from both paradigms.

• Provides a deeper understanding of the ideal of relating as equals than is currently available in the literature • Argues that the relational ideal and ideals of distributive justice are compatible and might even both be rooted in a deeper notion of fairness • Shows that relational equality can be valuable for quite different reasons and offers a defense of a particular view on this matter

This book is for students and scholars of the development of philosophical perspectives on aesthetics, history, politics, and religion in eighteenth-century Germany. It concentrates on contemporaries of Immanuel Kant, the era’s leading philosopher, whose achievements have so long overshadowed those of his German contemporaries.

• Situates Kant’s thought in the context of his German contemporaries • Re-examines the distinctively German inauguration of aesthetics and art history in the eighteenth century • Identifies creative departures from Kant’s thought in the areas of educational and political philosophy • Explores several pressing religious concerns of the period – from questions of pantheism and immortality to the relation of faith and reason – in light of Kant’s responses to them

In his Critique of Pure Reason, Kant criticizes traditional metaphysics and its proofs of immortality, free will and God’s existence. By contrast, this book explains Kant’s less famous but nonetheless plausible account of why rational beings ask metaphysical questions and why answers to these questions appear rationally compelling to them.

• Explains Kant’s account of reason and metaphysics, and highlights its relevance for current debates in philosophy • Presents a new interpretation of the Transcendental Dialectic which appears in Kant’s key work, the Critique of Pure Reason • Provides detailed discussion of some less discussed aspects of the Critique of Pure Reason December 2018 228 x 152 mm 310pp 978-1-108-47263-0 Hardback £75.00 / US$105.00
