Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2025A grand strategy of peace
Britain and the creation of the United Nations Organization, 1939-1945
by Andrew Ehrhardt
A grand strategy of peace is the first detailed account of Britain's role in the creation of the United Nations Organization during the Second World War. As a work of traditional diplomatic history that brings in elements of intellectual history, the book describes how British officials, diplomats, politicians, and writers - previously seen to be secondary actors to the United States in this period - thought about, planned for, and helped to establish a future international order. While in the present day, many scholars and analysts have returned to the origins of the post- 1945 international system, this book offers an exhaustive account of how the statesmen and more importantly, the officials working below the statesmen, actually conceived of and worked to establish a post-war world order.

June 2025Das Bildnis des Oscar Wilde
Romanbiografie | Über das schillernde und tragische Leben des großartigen Schriftstellers und Dandys
by Stephen Alexander
Zwei junge Männer schreiten die Freitreppe des Londoner St. James's Theaters hinab. Applaus brandet auf: Er gilt Oscar Wilde, der auf dem Weg ist, der erfolgreichste Autor Großbritanniens zu werden – seine Theaterstücke werden gefeiert; sein Roman Das Bildnis des Dorian Gray ist ein verruchter Bestseller. Er wird verehrt, doch auch kritisch beäugt. Denn den klatschsüchtigen Londonern entgeht nicht, dass der verheiratete Familienvater enge Beziehungen zu jungen Männern pflegt. An diesem Abend begleitet ihn ›Bosie‹, Lord Alfred Douglas, der Sohn des Marquess of Queensberry. Ihr Glück wird bald ein Ende finden: Homosexuelle Liebesbeziehungen sind im viktorianischen England verboten, und als Bosies Vater Oscar Wilde öffentlich der Sodomie bezichtigt, ist die Katastrophe nicht mehr aufzuhalten …

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2025The Jacobites and the Grand Tour
Educational travel and small-states' diplomacy
by Jérémy Filet
In the first monograph to fully examine the intersecting networks of Jacobites and travellers to the continent, Filet considers how small states used official diplomacy and deployed soft power - embodied by educational academies - to achieve foreign policy goals. This work uses little-known archival materials to explain how and why certain small states secretly supported the Jacobite cause during the crucial years surrounding the 1715 rising, while others stayed out of Jacobite affairs.At the same time, the book demonstrates how early modern small states sought to cultivate good relations with Britain by attracting travellers as part of a wider trend of ensuring connections with future diplomats or politicians in case a Stuart restoration never came.This publication therefore brings together a study of Britain, small states, Jacobitism, and educational travel, in its nexus at continental academies.

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2026The promise of violence
Collective memory and the making of revolutionaries in Iran
by Younes Saramifar
Revolutionaries in Iran choose to identify memories of the Iran-Iraq War as their 'collective' memory to mark the war era as the temporal reference in history - the time of times, or sometimes even a time beyond time. Can a sole event and its violence truly become - for some - the all-encompassing, constituting element of history and memory? This book pursues this question and follows revolutionaries in the maze of 'collective' memory to offer a temporal account of the breakdown of happenings - as well as the mending of happenings through the force of remembrance.

Humanities & Social SciencesNovember 2025The lure of violence
The Right and the Edwardian crisis in Britain, 1901–14
by Alessandro Saluppo
This book provides a comprehensive examination of conservative and right-wing responses to the Edwardian crisis in Britain (1901-1914). It stresses how the upsurge of right-wing extremism within and outside the Conservative party was accompanied by the crystallization of a culture of violence. The preparation, instigation or threatening of violent acts against all those who appeared to threaten the organic nature and vigour of the national community found expression in a myriad of ultra-nationalist organisations, citizen policing groups, private military associations, and paramilitary formations. The book innovatively reconstructs the belief system and the practices of those right-wing actors, which pursued the goals of military preparedness, "racial regeneration" and imperial unity, while defending the amorphous goals of authority, order and 'national efficiency' against the forces of radicalism and socialism. The book helps to cast light on the bellicose and authoritarian reflexes that traversed British conservatism in the turbulent prewar years.

Literature & Literary StudiesApril 2025Speculative endeavors
Cultures of knowledge and capital in the long nineteenth century
by Selina Foltinek, Karin Hoepker, Katrin Horn
Speculative endeavours contributes to an emerging field of scholarship that focuses on alternative forms of knowledge production and speculation in nineteenth century US-American society. It sheds light on unofficial knowledges such as insider information, rumour, gossip, slander, emphasising how knowledges excluded by institutional discourses and authorities form a core part of the developing market economy. Ranging from the Early Republic to the Gilded Age, contributions analyse entanglements of financial, cultural, and social capital. They focus on social actors who differ from the newly minted ideal of the (free, white, male) entrepreneurial individual. The speculative endeavours discussed include illicit communications located in slave quarters and domestic spaces, communal interventions into a commercialised print market, debates on immigrant fiduciary and legal competency, and disciplinary techniques of pecuniary pedagogy. Taken together they offer unprecedented interdisciplinary insights into an emerging age of capital.

May 2024Fish in Distress
On the careful management of an endangered resource
by Manfred Kriener, Stefan Linzmaier
Consumers stand perplexed at the fish counter. Cod or salmon; mackerel or sea bass? Or perhaps rather carp and trout? How about flounder and dab? Dab what? A terrific flatfish, but sadly hardly anyone has heard of it. And what was it again about organic, aquaculture, wild-caught, and that little blue sustainability certificate? Is catching your own a way out? Before you start thinking it’s time to opt for a chop and fried potatoes instead, read this book. It provides readers with deep blue facts from the world’s waters and analyses the global and local habitat of the finned creature.

Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2025Europeanisation as violence
Souths and Easts as method
by Kolar Aparna, Daria Krivonos, Elisa Pascucci
The book offers a novel lens to situate Europeanisation as violence - through institutions and technologies of development, cultural heritage, and borders, among others - by bringing South and East within a relational frame. Through four inter-related sections, it foregrounds Europeanisation as infrastructural violence and colonial asymmetries, slow violence and the construction of stratified subalternities, epistemic dispossession, and border epistemologies.

May 2025»Ich kann allem widerstehen außer der Versuchung«
Kleine Bosheiten vom Meister der Bonmots
by Oscar Wilde, Christina Schenk, Denis Scheck, Denis Scheck, Christina Schenk
»Bosheit ist ein Mythos, den gute Menschen erfunden haben, um die seltsame Anziehungskraft der anderen zu erklären.« Bis heute, 125 Jahre nach seinem Tod, gehört Oscar Wilde zu den beliebtesten und meist zitierten Autoren – nicht zuletzt wegen seiner Spitzzüngigkeit und dem Scharfsinn seiner Beobachtungen. Ob sich seine Polemik gegen überflüssige Zeitungen oder schlechte Literatur richtet, gegen geistlose Frauen oder langweilige Männer, gegen scheinheilige Moralvorstellungen oder die Ignoranz der Unkultivierten – immer ist sie treffsicher, brillant formuliert und äußerst unterhaltsam. Mehr als pure Gehässigkeit, ist sie Ausdruck des künstlerischen Selbstverständnisses Wildes, seine Extravaganz gegen die Meinung der anderen zu leben und seine Kunst, die elegante Schönheit und kritischen Geist verbindet, über die gesellschaftlichen Konventionen stellen zu dürfen.

Literature & Literary StudiesJuly 2023In the company of wolves
Werewolves, wolves and wild children
by Sam George, Bill Hughes
In the company of wolves presents further research from the Open Graves, Open Minds Project. It connects together innovative research from a variety of perspectives on the cultural significance of wolves, wild children and werewolves as portrayed in different media and genres. We begin with the wolf itself as it has been interpreted as a cultural symbol and how it figures in contemporary debates about wilderness and nature. Alongside this, we consider eighteenth-century debates about wild children - often thought to have been raised by wolves and other animals - and their role in key questions about the origins of language and society. The collection continues with essays on werewolves and other shapeshifters as depicted in folk tales, literature, film and TV, concluding with the transition from animal to human in contemporary art, poetry and fashion.
