Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2010Orangism in the Dutch Republic in word and image, 1650–75
by Jill Stern, Joseph Bergin, Penny Roberts, Bill Naphy
This remarkable study represents a completely original presentation of the language and imagery used by the Orangists in the critical period in the mid-seventeenth century Netherlands as they sought the restoration of the stadholderate in the person of the young prince William III. Stern argues that the Orangists had no desire for the prince to become a monarch, rather that they viewed the stadholderate as an essential component of the Dutch constitution, the Union of Utrecht, and fulfilling a key role as defender of the rights and privileges of the citizenry against an overwheening urban oligarchy. Source material is drawn not only from books and political pamphlets but also from contemporary drama, poetry, portraits, prints, and medals. This enables the author to examine the imagery used by the supporters of the House of Orange, in particular the symbols of rebirth and regeneration which were deployed to propagate the restoration of the stadholderate in the person of William III. ;

February 2023Book Love
Eine Liebeserklärung an das Lesen - Ein Muss für alle, die Bücher lieben (deutsche Hardcover-Ausgabe)
by Debbie Tung, Debbie Tung, Katharina Hartwell
Jeder Tag ist ein guter Tag für Bücher. Zumindest für Debbie, die an keiner Buchhandlung vorbeigehen kann, ohne einen großen Bücherstapel mitzunehmen. Debbie genießt Bücher mit allen Sinnen. Sie kann an ihnen riechen, sie streicheln, sogar Sport damit machen. Und manchmal kann sie sie hören. Dann ruft ein Buch: „Lies mich!“, wenn Debbie eigentlich gerade etwas ganz anderes tun wollte. Vor allem aber gilt für Debbie: Bücher können zaubern und uns in andere Welten versetzen. Denn wer ein Leseleben führt, lebt viele Leben auf einmal. Book Love ist eine einzige Liebeserklärung an das Medium Buch und das Lesen und ein Must-have für alle Buchliebhaber*innen.

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2025Joining up in the Second World War
Enlistment, masculinity and the memory of the Great War
by Joel Morley
This book connects the First and Second World Wars. It uses oral histories and Mass Observation material to explore men's attitudes to Second World War enlistment and the relationship they perceived between military service and masculinity, and how these were influenced by understandings of the First World War. Locating the cultural legacy of First World War in the subjectivities of men who participated in the Second World War demonstrates the breadth of sources that informed men's understandings of the First World War in interwar Britain. Its cultural legacy was omnipresent and diverse, and informed young men's attitudes and service preferences, but it reinforced Edwardian conceptions of wartime masculinity as often as it undermined them. Two decades after the First World War ended, they remained resilient in the subjective understandings of men who grew up in the Great War's shadow.
