        Ireland and the Great War

        'A war to unite us all'?

        by Adrian Gregory, Senia Paseta

        As the twentieth century drew to a close, people in all parts of Ireland began to recover the memory of the First World War as the last great common experience of the island as a whole. Brings together research whilst re-evaluating older assumptions about the immediate and continuing impact of the war on Ireland. Explores some lesser-known aspects of Ireland's war years as well as including studies of more traditional areas: military, social, cultural, political and economic aspects. Analyses how the experience and memory of the War have contributed to identity formation and the legitimisation of political violence. ;

        The annals of Lampert of Hersfeld

        by I. Robinson

        This is a translation of the eleventh-century Latin Annals of Lampert, monk of Hersfeld, with detailed commentary and introduction. No translation has hitherto been published in English, despite the fact that it is one of the best known of all the narrative sources of the Middle Ages, constantly mentioned in the English secondary literature. Lampert produced the most detailed account of the events of 1056-77 (the minority of Henry IV of Germany and the first decade of his personal rule), a period of crisis and rebellion culminating in the conflict between the king and Pope Gregory VII. He is widely regarded as 'the unrivalled master among medieval historians' and 'a superb story-teller', noted for his vivid characterisation and narrative. An English translation of this work is of the greatest value to teachers and students of medieval history and also of interest to the general reader of European literature.

        Die Formen des Religiösen in der Gegenwart

        by Charles Taylor, Karin Wördemann, Charles Taylor

        Ausgehend von William James' 1902 erschienener Untersuchung "Die Vielfalt religiöser Erfahrung" verfolgt Charles Taylor die Verschiebungen im Verhältnis von Religion, Individuum und Gesellschaft, von Spirituellem und Politischem bis in die Gegenwart. Der Rückzug des religiösen aus der öffentlichen Sphäre hat die Religion nicht ins Private eingeschlossen; vielmehr verbirgt sich hinter diesem Prozeß eine Kulturrevolution: Der moderne »expressive« Individualismus hat eine Vielfalt neuer Religionsformen und -gemeinschaften hervorgebracht, die auf die traditionellen Formen zurückwirkt und die Gesellschaft verändert. Der Ort der Religion muß neu bestimmt werden.

        The Papal Reform of the Eleventh Century

        Lives of Pope Leo IX and Pope Gregory VII

        by I. Robinson

        The eleventh-century papal reform transformed western European Church and society and permanently altered the relations of Church and State in the west. The reform was inaugurated by Pope Leo IX (1048-54) and given a controversial change of direction by Pope Gregory VII (1073-85). This book contains the earliest biographies of both popes, presented here for the first time in English translation with detailed commentaries. The biographers of Leo IX were inspired by his universally acknowledged sanctity, whereas the biographers of Gregory VII wrote to defend his reputation against the hostility generated by his reforming methods and his conflict with King Henry IV. Also included is a translation of Book to a Friend, written by Bishop Bonizo of Sutri soon after the death of Gregory VII, as well as an extract from the violently anti-Gregorian polemic of Bishop Benzo of Alba (1085) and the short biography of Leo IX composed in the papal curia in the 1090s by Bishop Bruno of Segni. These fascinating narrative sources bear witness to the startling impact of the papal reform and of the 'Investiture Contest', the conflict of empire and papacy that was one of its consequences. An essential collection of translated texts for students of medieval history.

        Die Geschichte von Doktor Dolittle

        by Hugh Lofting, Reinhard Michl, Eike Schönfeld

        Der Arzt John Dolittle lebt in dem kleinen Städtchen Puddleby-on-the Marsh, mit den Menschen kommt er nicht gut zurecht. Mit Tieren ist das ganz anders, selbst dem kranken Krokodil kann er helfen. Viele bleiben nach der Behandlung bei dem scheuen Doktor, suchen sich einen Platz im Garten oder im Haus, denn er beherrscht auch noch ihre Sprachen! Seiner griesgrämigen Schwester wird das alles zu viel, sie zieht aus. »Normale« Patienten kämen ohnehin nicht mehr in die Praxis… Als in Afrika eine neue und unheilbare Tierkrankheit ausbricht, beschließen er und seine treuen Freunde, trotz Geldmangels ein Schiff zu chartern und zu dem unbekannten Kontinent aufzubrechen, um den Tieren dort zu helfen! Hugh Loftings Kinderbuchklassiker von 1920 wurde für diese Ausgabe von Eike Schönfeld vollständig neu übersetzt. Und der große Tierzeichner Reinhard Michl hat »Doktor Dolittle« für die Insel-Bücherei kongenial illustriert. Eine prachtvolle Wiederentdeckung!
