Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2019Hermits and anchorites in England, 1200–1550
by E. A. Jones
This source book offers a comprehensive treatment of solitary religious lives in England in the late Middle Ages. It covers both enclosed recluses (anchorites) and free-wandering hermits, and explores the relationship between them. Although there has been a recent surge of interest in the solitary vocations, especially anchorites, this has focused almost exclusively on a small number of examples. The field is in need of reinvigoration, and this book provides it. Featuring translated extracts from a wide range of Latin, Middle English and Old French sources, as well as a scholarly introduction and commentary from one of the foremost experts in the field, Hermits and anchorites in England is an invaluable resource for students and lecturers alike.

March 2024Today Is a Good Day to Abolish the Patriarchy
by Bettina Schulte (ed.)
Do we still need feminism in Europe? Equality or difference feminism? A new generation of feminists has now broken away from the feminism of the 1960s. The old white Cis man has been discredited, by the "#MeToo" movement at the latest. Sexualised violence against women has been outlawed, perpetrators taken to court. So everything’s good? No, of course not. Men still dominate public discourse; men are unchallenged in leadership positions in politics, society and business; male power still prevails in the domestic environment as well. The extent to which men fight back when they feel threatened by feminism is also evident in the revival of authoritarian nationalist politicians in Europe and around the world. The seven authors shed light on feminist struggles in different areas of life, and illustrate the range of feminism today.

Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2026A queer scrapbook
Britain and Ireland since 1945
by Justin Bengry, Matt Cook, Rebecca Jennings, E-J Scott
A beautifully illustrated compendium of LGBTIQ+ life. A queer scrapbook offers a treasure trove of LGBTIQ+ histories from across Britain and Ireland. Packed with materials, from interviews and newspaper articles to photographs and flyers, the book explores urban, rural and regional queer life since 1945. Commentaries and short essays introduce a changing queer landscape, spotlighting four broad themes: home and family, sex and socialising, arts and culture and politics and activism. The book delves into the meaning and experiences of domesticity and parenting and explores the sometimes unexpected places LGBTIQ+ people met to have fun. It examines the importance of creative work in forming community and identity and shows how people fought injustice and advocated for equal rights. Collecting has been a way for the marginalised to explore and assert identity and community. A queer scrapbook vividly illustrates the diversity of queer and trans lives across the British and Irish isles since the Second World War.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2026A Confucian theory of power
by Sungmoon Kim
In the book's lead essay, Sungmoon Kim offers a comprehensive analysis of Confucian power. Through a blend of philosophical, political, and historical analysis, Kim challenges the dominant idea that Confucianism is primarily centred on virtue ethics. Instead, he argues that Confucianism perceives power through the prism of responsibility. Kim not only traces this perspective throughout history but also demonstrates its relevance to contemporary society. He contrasts this Confucian perspective with Western political theory's view of power as control. Political theorists and philosophers will offer essay responses to Sungmoon Kim's provocation, offering a dialogue approach to provide a comprehensive analysis of the Confucian conception of power.

October 2025A Theory of Dreaming (A Study in Drowning, Band 2)
Träume aus Schatten und Sehnsucht - Historische Fantasy über die Macht der Mythen, Träume und Literatur - Mit Farbschnitt in der 1. Auflage
by Nadine Mannchen
JEDER TRAUM HAT EIN ENDE Effy hat es geschafft: Endlich darf sie als erste Frau in Llyr Literatur studieren! Doch die Ereignisse der letzten Zeit lasten schwer auf ihr. Zumal ihre männlichen Kommilitonen sie alles andere als herzlich willkommen heißen. Einzig Preston gibt ihr Halt – der jedoch selbst zu kämpfen hat. Vor allem, als seine Träume ihn plötzlich in eine versunkene Stadt entführen. Was hat das zu bedeuten? Und wieso verfolgen ihn die Visionen sogar in der Realität? In der Fortsetzung des SPIEGEL-Bestsellers A Study in Drowning zeigt Ava Reid, welche Macht Mythen, Träume und Literatur besitzen. Dabei behandelt sie wichtige Themen wie Mental Health, Feminismus, Nationalismus und Propaganda und verwebt sie gekonnt mit einer berührenden Romantasygeschichte.

Literature & Literary StudiesSeptember 2014A concordance to the rhymes of The Faerie Queene
by Richard Brown, J. B. Lethbridge, J. B. Lethbridge
This book is the first ever concordance to the rhymes of Spenser's epic. It gives the reader unparalleled access to the formal nuts and bolts of this massive poem: the rhymes which he used to structure its intricate stanzas. As well as the main concordance to the rhymes, the volume features a wealth of ancillary materials, which will be of value to both professional Spenserians and students, including distribution lists and an alphabetical listing of all the words in The Faerie Queene. The volume breaks new ground by including two studies by Richard Danson Brown and J. B. Lethbridge, so that the reader is given provocative analyses alongside the raw data about Spenser as a rhymer. Brown considers the reception of rhyme, theoretical models and how Spenser's rhymes may be reading for meaning. Lethbridge in contrast discusses the formulaic and rhetorical character of the rhymes. ;

Literature & Literary StudiesJune 2015A Supplement of the Faery Queene
By Ralph Knevet
by J. B. Lethbridge
Ralph Knevet's Supplement of the Faery Queene (1635) is a narrative and allegorical work, which weaves together a complex collection of tales and episodes, featuring knights, ladies, sorcerers, monsters, vertiginous fortresses and deadly battles - a chivalric romp in Spenser's cod medieval style. The poem shadows recent English history, and the major military and political events of the Thirty Years War. But the Supplement is also an ambitiously intertextual poem, weaving together materials from mythic, literary, historical, scientific, theological, and many other kinds of written sources. Its encyclopaedic ambitions combine with Knevet's historical focus to produce an allegorical epic poem of considerable interest and power. This new edition of Knevet's Supplement, the first scholarly text of the poem ever published, situates it in its literary, historical, biographical, and intellectual contexts. An extensive introduction and copious critical commentary, positioned at the back of the book, will enable students and scholars alike to access Knevet's complicated and enigmatic meanings, structures, and allusions. ;
