        Irish Home Rule
        Humanities & Social Sciences
        August 1998

        Irish Home Rule

        by Alan O'Day, Mark Greengrass

        Irish Home Rule considers the pre-eminent issue in British politics during the late nineteenth and early twentieth-centuries. It is the first account to explain the various self-government plans, to place these in context and examine the motives for putting the schemes forward. The book distinguishes between moral and material home rulers, making the point that the first appealed especially to outsiders, some Protestants and the intelligentsia, who saw in self-government a means to reconcile Ireland's antagonistic traditions. In contrast, material home rulers viewed a Dublin Parliament as a forum of Catholic interests. This account appraises the home rule movement from a fresh angle, distinguishing it from the usual division drawn between physical force and constitutional nationalists It maintains that an ideological continuity runs from Young Ireland, the Fenians, the early home rulers including Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell, to the Gaelic Revivalists to the Men of 1916. These nationalists are distinguishable from material home rulers not on the basis of methods or strategy but by a fundamental ideological cleavage. ;

        Objects of affection

        The book and the household in late medieval England

        by Myra Seaman

        Objects of affection recovers the emotional attraction of the medieval book through an engagement with a fifteenth-century literary collection known as Oxford, Bodleian Library Manuscript Ashmole 61. Exploring how the inhabitants of the book's pages - human and nonhuman, tangible and intangible - collaborate with its readers then and now, this book addresses the manuscript's material appeal in the ways it binds itself to different cultural, historical and material environments. In doing so it traces the affective literacy training that the manuscript provided its late-medieval English household, whose diverse inhabitants are incorporated into the ecology of the book itself as it fashions spiritually generous and socially mindful household members.

        Ilias. Odyssee

        Zwei Bände im Schuber

        by Homer, Michael Schroeder, Karl Ferdinand Lempp

        Wer sich bisher nicht an Homer heranwagte, weil er sich durch die Versform oder die altertümliche Sprache der vorliegenden Übersetzungen abgeschreckt fühlte, kann in der Prosaübertragung von Karl Ferdinand Lempp die Ilias und die Odyssee als das erleben, was diese ältesten Dokumente der europäischen Literatur wirklich sind: fesselnde Romane. Die hier erstmals aus dem Nachlaß edierte Gesamtübersetzung von Karl Ferdinand Lempp befreit diese beiden zusammengehörigen Weltbücher, in denen der Krieg der Kriege und die Reise aller Reisen erzählt werden, von den Schlacken, die sich der antiken Vortragsform verdanken, und greift behutsam erklärend ein, wenn der Inhalt dem heutigen Leser nicht ohne weiteres verständlich ist. Ohne sprachliche Anbiederung präsentiert Lempp einen modernen und temporeichen Text, der den Zorn des Achill und die Irrfahrten des Odysseus so unmittelbar vor Augen führt, als wäre alles erst gestern geschehen.

        Max Frisch. Citoyen

        by Max Frisch, Matthias Gunten

        »Wir riefen Gastarbeiter, und es kamen Menschen.« Mit Sätzen wie diesem griff Max Frisch immer wieder in das öffentliche Leben der Schweiz ein. Als politischer Intellektueller war er auch in anderen Ländern ein gefragter Gesprächspartner: Er diskutierte mit Henry Kissinger über den Krieg in Vietnam, war 1977 in der Nacht, in der die »Landshut« gestürmt wurde, bei Helmut Schmidt in Bonn. Dem Citoyen, dem engagierten Bürger Max Frisch hat Matthias von Gunten sein Porträt gewidmet. Zu Wort kommt, neben Kissinger und Schmidt sowie Schriftstellerkollegen wie Christa Wolf, Günter Grass und Peter Bichsel, auch der Autor Max Frisch selbst – seine Tagebucheinträge und Reden werden gelesen von Reto Hänny. »Solche Stimmen fehlen heute in der Schweiz«, sagte von Gunten dazu der Neuen Zürcher Zeitung. Man möchte ergänzen: und anderswo.

        Women of the English Nobility and Gentry, 1066-1500

        Women of the English Nobility and Gentry, 1066-1500

        by Jennifer Ward

        While there is increasing interest in the lives of medieval women, the documentary evidence for their activities remains little known. This book provides a collection of sources for an important and influential group of women in medieval England, and examines changes in their role and activities between 1066 and 1500. For most noble and gentry-women, early marriage led to responsibilities for family and household, and, in the absence of their husbands, for the family estates and retainers. Widowhood enabled them to take control of their affairs and to play an independent part in the local community and sometimes further afield. Although many women's lives followed a conventional pattern, great variety existed within family relationships, and individuality can also be seen in religious practices and patronage. Piety could take a number of different forms, whether a woman became a nun, a vowess or a noted philanthropist and benefactor to religious institutions. This volume provides a broad-ranging and accessible coverage of the role of noble women in medieval society. It highlights the significant role played by these women within their families, households, estates and communities.

        Making home

        Orphanhood, kinship and cultural memory in contemporary American novels

        by Maria Holmgren Troy, Elizabeth Kella, Helena Wahlstrom, Maria Holmgren Troy

        Making home explores the figure of the orphan child in a broad selection of contemporary US novels by popular and critically acclaimed authors Barbara Kingsolver, Linda Hogan, Leslie Marmon Silko, Marilynne Robinson, Michael Cunningham, Jonathan Safran Foer, John Irving, Kaye Gibbons, Octavia Butler, Jewelle Gomez and Toni Morrison. The orphan child is a continuous presence in US literature, not only in children's books and nineteenth-century texts, but also in a variety of genres of contemporary fiction for adults. Making home examines the meanings of this figure in the contexts of American literary history, social history and ideologies of family, race and nation. It argues that contemporary orphan characters function as links to literary history and national mythologies, even as they may also serve to critique the limits of literary history, as well as the limits of familial and national belonging.

        Home front heroism

        Civilians and conflict in Second World War London

        by Ellena Matthews

        Home front heroism investigates how civilians were recognised and celebrated as heroic during the Second World War. Through a focus on London, this book explores how heroism was manufactured as civilians adopted roles in production, protection and defence, through the use of uniforms and medals, and through the way that civilians were injured and killed. This book makes a novel contribution to the study of heroism by exploring the spatial, material, corporeal and ritualistic dimensions of heroic representations. By tracing the different ways that Home Front heroism was cultivated on a national, local and personal level, this study promotes new ways of thinking about the meaning and value of heroism during periods of conflict. It will appeal to anyone interested in the social and cultural history of Second World War as well as the sociology and psychology of heroism.

        The bonds of family

        Slavery, commerce and culture in the British Atlantic world

        by Katie Donington

        Moving between Britain and Jamaica The bonds of family reconstructs the world of commerce, consumption and cultivation sustained through an extended engagement with the business of slavery. Transatlantic slavery was both shaping of and shaped by the dynamic networks of family that established Britain's Caribbean empire. Tracing the activities of a single extended family - the Hibberts - this book explores how slavery impacted on the social, cultural, economic and political landscape of Britain. It is a history of trade, colonisation, enrichment and the tangled web of relations that gave meaning to the transatlantic world. The Hibberts's trans-generational story imbricates the personal and the political, the private and the public, the local and the global. It is both the intimate narrative of a family and an analytical frame through which to explore Britain's history and legacies of slavery.

        Vier moderne Theaterstücke

        by Max Frisch, Heiner Müller, Botho Strauß, Peter Weiss

        "Max Frisch: Triptychon. Drei szenische Bilder. (Revidiert Dezember (1979)Das »Triptychon« besteht aus drei Bildern, die drei szenische Aspekte zum Thema geben: Unsere gesellschaftliche Verlegenheit beim Ableben eines Menschen; die Toten unter sich, ihre langsam versiegenden Gespräche am Styx, wo es die Ewigkeit des Gewesenen, aber keine Erwartung gibt; der Lebende in der unlösbaren Beziehung zum toten Partner, der, was immer der Lebende tue, nicht umzudenken vermag.Heiner Müller: Die HamletmaschineHamlet, das ist nach Heiner Müller »ein Mann, der mehr weiß als er ertragen kann, er weiß mehr als er gebrauchen kann unter den Umständen, in denen er lebt und zu leben gezwungen ist«. Er ist zugleich der Intellektuelle, der ständig Zögernde, Zaudernde. In dieser Zeit politischer Stagnation, in der die Geschichte auf der Stelle tritt, wird Hamlet zur Maschine, die Schmerzen und Gedanken nicht mehr kennt, in Schnee und Eiszeit endet.Botho Strauß: Groß und klein. SzenenEine junge Frau aus der Provinz reist kreuz und quer durch Deutschland - auf der Suche nach ihrem Mann, nach Freunden, nach Verständigung. Eine Welt, die sich in der Hermetik ihrer Alltagszusammenhänge verschließt und nur noch ohnmächtige Rebellionen zuläßt, wird zum Bild der bundesrepublikanischen Gegenwart.Peter Weiss: Die Ermittlung. Oratorium in 11 GesängenAngesichts des Skandals um die Neuinterpretation der »Ermittlung« in der Berliner Volksbühne 1980 ist die Frage nach heutigen Aspekten der Vergangenheitsbewältigung neu zu stellen. Wir drucken den Text und dokumentieren die Neuinterpretation."
