June 2020Politische Gleichheit
by Danielle Allen, Christine Pries
Wer hat Macht und aufgrund welcher institutionellen Strukturen, Ressourcen und Möglichkeiten? Kann es sein, dass wir in den letzten Jahrzehnten im Schatten eines abstrakten liberalen Gleichheitsideals verlernt haben, die konkreten Machtverhältnisse und Ungleichheiten unserer Gesellschaften zu sehen – und uns die neuen ökonomischen Verwerfungen und rechtspopulistischen Mobilisierungen deshalb relativ unvorbereitet trafen? Ja, sagt Danielle Allen, und entwickelt in ihrem Buch ein neues Verständnis politischer Gleichheit für Gesellschaften großer sozialer und kultureller Vielfalt. Ausgangspunkt ihrer Analyse ist das Verhältnis zwischen negativen und positiven Rechten. Im Gegensatz zur einflussreichen liberalen Theorie à la Rawls plädiert Allen dafür, beiden die gleiche Wichtigkeit einzuräumen – und gelangt so zu einer Theorie der Gerechtigkeit, die auf dem Prinzip »Differenz ohne Herrschaft« basiert. Im Lichte dieses Prinzips lassen sich beispielsweise Probleme des gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalts produktiv bearbeiten. Echte politische Gleichheit, so Allen, lässt sich nur in demokratischen Gesellschaften mit starken sozialen Bindungen realisieren. Dazu gilt es, Differenzen auszuhalten und neue Kulturen der Interaktion aufzubauen. Und es braucht eine Politik, die genau dies etwa durch entsprechende sozial- und wirtschaftspolitische Maßnahmen fördert. Eine Theorie für das 21. Jahrhundert.

British & Irish historyJuly 2013The Cooke sisters
Education, piety and politics in early modern England
by Gemma Allen
This book is a study of five remarkable sixteenth-century women. Part of the select group of Tudor women allowed access to a formal education, the Cooke sisters were also well-connected through their marriages to influential Elizabethan politicians. Drawing particularly on the sisters' own writings, this book demonstrates that the sisters' education extended far beyond that normally allowed for sixteenth-century women, challenging the view that women in this period were excluded from using their formal education to practical effect. It reveals that the sisters' learning provided them with opportunities to communicate effectively their own priorities through their translations, verse and letters. By reconstructing the sisters' networks, it demonstrates how they worked alongside - and sometimes against - family members over matters of politics and religion, empowered by their exceptional education. Providing new perspectives on these key issues, it will be essential reading for early modern historians and literary scholars.

Humanities & Social SciencesDecember 2004Eastward bound
Travel and travellers, 1050–1550
by Rosamund Allen
Eastward bound looks at travel and travellers in the medieval period. An international range of distinguished contributors offer discussions on a wide range of themes, from the experiences of Crusaders on campaign, to the lives of pilgrims, missionaries and traders in the Middle East. It examines their modes of travel, equipment and methods of navigation, and considers their expectations and experiences en route. The contributions also look at the variety of motives - public and private - behind the decision to travel eastwards. Other essays discuss the attitudes of Middle-Eastern rulers to their visitors. In so doing they provide a valuable perspective and insight into the behaviour of the Europeans and non-Europeans alike. There have been few such accessible volumes, covering such a broad range of material. The book will be of use to students and scholars involved in the history, literature and historical geography of the medieval period. ;

Windows for the world
Nineteenth-century stained glass and the international exhibitions, 1851–1900
by Jasmine Allen
Windows for the world explores the display and reception of nineteenth-century British stained glass in a secular exhibition context. International in scope, the book focuses on the global development of stained glass in this period as showcased at, and influenced by, these exhibitions. It recognises those who made and exhibited stained glass and demonstrates the long-lasting impact of the classification and modes of display at these events. A number of exhibits are illustrated in colour and are analysed in relation to stylistic developments, techniques and material innovations, as well as the broader iconographies of nation and empire in the nineteenth century.

Humanities & Social SciencesSeptember 2025Industrial memory in North East England
Negotiating northernness
by Victoria Allen
Industrial memory in North East England examines how the region's industrial myth and memory have been articulated in the renegotiation of northernness. The book offers a critical contextualisation of the concept of northernness and the English North, and an introduction to the concept of the PopCultural Portfolio, a mixed-methods approach to conjunctural analysis in cultural and memory studies. The book provides six richly illustrated case studies to demonstrate the practical application of cultural studies' expansive and inclusive understanding of texts, bringing together materials from North East football, folk, indie and exhibition culture to establish how the North East's industrial past continues to be remembered and functionalised as industrial memory. In turn, the conjunctural analysis demonstrates how industrial memory is articulated and mythologised as north(east)ernes in contemporary popular culture.
