AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS SOCIAL WORLDS OF LATE ANTIQUITY AND THE EARLY MIDDLE AGES

Edited by Jussi Rantala

Gender, Memory, and Identity in the Roman World This volume approaches three key concepts in Roman history - gender, memory and identity - and demonstrates the significance of their interaction in all social levels and during all periods of Imperial Rome. When societies, as well as individuals, form their identities, remembrance and references to the past play a significant role. The aim of this volume is to cast light on the constructing and the maintaining of both public and private identities in the Roman Empire through memory, and to highlight, in particular, the role of gender in that process. While approaching this subject, the contributors to this volume scrutinise both the literature and material sources, pointing out how widespread the close relationship between gender, memory and identity was. A major aim of this volume as a whole is to point out the significance of the interaction between these three concepts in both the upper and lower levels of Roman society, and how it remained an important question through the period from Augustus right into Late Antiquity.

Jussi Rantala (PhD) is a researcher at the University of Tampere. His publications include

The Ludi Saeculares of Septimius Severus. The Ideologies of a New Roman Empire (Routledge 2017) and Dio the Dissident. A Portrait of Severus in Roman History (2016).

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS

By Richard van Leeuwen and Arnoud Vrolijk

The 'Thousand and one Nights' and Orientalism in the Dutch Republic, 1700-1800 Galland, Cuper, De Flines Antoine Galland's French translation of the 1001 Nights started appearing in 1704. One year later a pirate edition was printed in The Hague, followed by many others.

Galland entertained a lively correspondence on the subject with the Dutch intellectual and statesman Gisbert Cuper (1644-1716). Dutch orientalists privately owned editions of the Nights and discreetly collected manuscripts of Arabic fairytales. In 1719 the Nights were first retranslated into Dutch by the wealthy Amsterdam silk merchant and financier Gilbert de Flines (Amsterdam 1690 - London 1739). This book by Richard van Leeuwen and Arnoud Vrolijk explores not only the trail of the French and Dutch editions from the eighteenth-century Dutch Republic and the role of the printers and illustrators, but also the mixed sentiments of embarrassment and appreciation, and the overall literary impact of the Nights on a Protestant nation in a century when French cultural influence ruled supreme.

Richard van Leeuwen teaches at the University of Amsterdam. He has published extensively on the 1001 Nights, including the first Dutch translation directly from the Arabic.

Arnoud Vrolijk is Curator of Oriental Manuscripts and Rare Books at Leiden University. He has published several books on the history of Arabic scholarship in the Netherlands.

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS

Edited by James McElvenny

Gabelentz and the Science of Language The German sinologist and general linguist Georg von der Gabelentz (1840-1893) occupies an interesting place at the intersection of several streams of linguistic scholarship at the end of the nineteenth century. As professor at the University of Leipzig and then at the University of Berlin in the final decades of the 19th century, Gabelentz was present at the main centers of linguistic scholarship at the time. He was, however, generally critical of the narrow, technical focus of mainstream historical-comparative linguistics as practiced by the Neogrammarians and instead emphasized approaches to language inspired by a line of researchers stemming from Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1835). Gabelentz' alternative conception of linguistics led him to several pioneering insights into language that informed linguistic research in the wake the structuralist revolution of the early 20th century. This volume brings together four essays that explore Gabelentz' contribution to linguistics from a historical perspective. In addition, it makes one of Gabelentz' key theoretical texts, "Content and Form of Speech", available to an English-speaking audience for the first time.

Dr James McElvenny is an Alexander von Humboldt postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Romance Studies, University of Potsdam. His specialization is the history of linguistics.

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS THE EARLY MEDIEVAL NORTH ATLANTIC

By Alexander D. Mirrington

Transformations of Identity and Society in Anglo-Saxon Essex A Case Study of an Early Medieval North Atlantic Community This book presents the results of a comprehensive archaeological study of early medieval Essex (c.AD 4001066). This region provides an important case study for examining coastal societies of north-western Europe.

Drawing on a wealth of new data, the author demonstrates the profound influence of maritime contacts on changing expressions of cultural affiliation. It is argued that this Continental orientation reflects Essex's long-term engagement with the emergent, dynamic North Sea network. The wide chronological focus and inclusive dataset enables long-term socio-economic continuity and transformation to be revealed. These include major new insights into the construction of group identity in Essex between the 5th and 11th centuries and the identification of several previously unknown sites of exchange. The presentation also includes the first full archaeological study of Essex under 'Viking' rule.

By Allison Ochs

Would I Have Sexted Back in the 80s?

A Modern Guide to Parenting Digital Teens, Derived from Lessons of the Past Parents across the globe are grasping for guidance in raising their digital teens. In this new book, Allison Ochs offers simple, easy to implement advice to parents who don’t want to feel shamed, but empowered.

With laugh-out-loud anecdotes from Allison’s teen years, Would I Have Sexted Back in the 80's?, according to one mother of three, serves as “an easy, eye-opening and reassuring guide that gives expert advice while feeling like talking to a friend over a cup of tea, or glass of wine.”

Allison’s experience as a social worker and educator, working with hundreds of teens and parents throughout her career, has provided her with the knowledge needed to negotiate topics such as sexting, porn, online/offline bullying, social media, gaming, memes, and too much time online, for both teens and parents.

Allison Ochs was raised one of eleven children in a Mormon family in Utah. She is now a Social Worker/ Teen expert living with her husband and children, combining the knowledge from her youth with her work experience in Europe.

But it’s through her own life, mistakes, past loves, cringeworthy memories that you never forget (no matter how hard you try!), and experience as a mother, that the foundation was set for knowing just what parents need.

January 2019 116 pages, 10 b/w, 15 line art illustrations Paperback 135 x 210 mm ISBN 978 94 6372 191 2 ePub-ISBN 978 90 4854 421 9 €12.95 / £10.49 / $15.95 €12.99 / £12.55 / $18.25

Illustrated by the talented Ricardo Rivera, Allison’s expert advice and honest account of her diverse upbringing will help parents everywhere in raising teens in the digital era.

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS VISUAL AND MATERIAL CULTURE, 1300-1700

By Livia Stoenescu

The Pictorial Art of El Greco Transmaterialities, Temporalities, and Media This book investigates El Greco's pictorial art as foundational to the globalising trends manifested in the visual culture of early modernity. It also exposes the figurative, semantic, and allegorical senses he created to challenge an Italian Renaissance-centered discourse.

Even though he was guided by the unprecedented flowering of devotional art in the post-Tridentine decades and by the expressive possibilities of earlier religious artifacts, especially those inherited from the apostolic past, the author demonstrates that El Greco forged his own independent trajectory. While his paintings have been studied in relation to the Italian and Spanish school traditions, his pictorial art in a global Mediterranean context continues to receive scant attention. Taking a global perspective as its focus, the book sheds new light on El Greco's highly original contribution to early Mediterranean and multi-institutional configurations of the Christian faith in Byzantium, Venice, Rome, Toledo, and Madrid.

Livia Stoenescu is assistant professor of art history at Texas A&M University. She is the editor of Creative and Imaginative Powers in the Pictorial Art of El Greco (Turnhout: Brepols, 2016). Her articles include "El Greco's Laocoön from Toledo," RES: Anthropology and Aesthetics (in press, fall 2017) and "Classical and Devotional Cultures in El Greco's Laocoön of Toledo," Comitatus 46 (2015): 171-209.

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS ASIAN CITIES

Edited by Henco Bekkering, Adèle Esposito, and Charles Goldblum

Ideas of the City in Asian Settings This book explores the multiple and changing ideas, concepts, and representations that shape contemporary cities in Asia in a historical perspective. It does so by using multiple sources, objects (architecture, planning, spaces and practices), and methods of inquiry. At a time when intense dynamics of urban development of Asian cities puzzle and disorient, Ideas of the City in Asian Settings offers knowledge about the ideas that lay beneath the historical and contemporary production of cities in Asia, in order to deepen our understanding of the processes and meanings of urban development in the continent. The book sheds more light on the vast array of rules and perspectives that make cities into complex objects that are continuously 'in the making'.

Because Asian cities have experienced unprecedented dynamics of urban development during the last fifty years, they are considered as crucial places to question the aspirations that multiple actors project onto changing urban environments, as well as the evolution of the role of cities in globalisation.

Henco Bekkering is Emeritus Professor of Urban Design, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands.

Dr. Adèle Esposito is an architect and researcher at the National Centre for Scientific Research.

AMSTERDAM UNIVERSITY PRESS ASIAN BORDERLANDS

By Arik Moran

Kingship and Polity on the Himalayan Borderland Rajput Identity during the Early Colonial Encounter The association of political power with royalty in Himalayan polities has a long and complex history. In the Western Himalaya, this manifests in the near ubiquitous claim of Rajput (lit., "sons of kings") leaders to descent from the Kshatriya sovereigns of Classical India. A close inspection of the early encounters between these leaders' ancestors and the British reveals this is a decidedly modern interpretation that was significantly informed by the area's position along the North Indian borderland. Exploring the interconnected histories of three kingdoms at the Himalayan foothills during the tumultuous transition to British rule (17901840), the book explores the conditions, contingencies and facilitating factors that engendered this novel reading of Pahari ("mountain") kingship. It shows how the continual shifting of boundaries between multiple empires (Sikh, Nepali, and British) led to a reconceptualization of kingship and polity that recast the open ended, caste-inclusive, male and female-led polities as hermetic, caste-exclusive, male-centred constructs, which remain the bedrock of regional identities to date.

Arik Moran (DPhil, Oxon 2010) is a member of the Department of Asian Studies at the University of Haifa, Israel.
