Teaching, Language & ReferenceAugust 2024Aid to Armenia
Humanitarianism and intervention from the 1890s to the present
by Joanne Laycock, Francesca Piana
Interventions on behalf of Armenia and Armenians have come to be identified by scholars and practitioners alike as defining moments in the history of humanitarianism. This book reassesses these claims, critically examining a range of interventions by governments, international and diasporic organizations, and individuals that aimed to 'save Armenians'. Drawing on multidisciplinary perspectives, it traces the evolution of these interventions from the late-nineteenth century to the present day, paying particular attention to the aftermaths of the genocide and the upheavals of the post-Soviet period. The contributions connect diverse places (the Caucasus, Russia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, South America, and Australia) to reveal shifting transnational networks of aid and intervention. Aid to Armenia explores this history, and engages critically with contemporary humanitarian questions facing Armenia, the South Caucasus region and the wider diaspora.

January 1998Bertolt Brechts »Terzinen über die Liebe«
by Bertolt Brecht, Jan Knopf
Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert, daß Kunst vermag, »die Schönheit in ihrer reitzenden Gestalt«, wie Johann Jacob Bodmer 1741 zu Dantes Francesca-Darstellung formulierte, so abzuschildern, »als ob der Vorwurf derselben in der nackenden Natur vor Sinnen geleget wäre«. Die Schönheit von Brechts Versen, ihre nachhaltige Wirkung und der Vergleich mit lyrischen Bearbeitungen desselben Stoffs aus sechs Jahrhunderten beweisen: die Terzinen über die Liebe gehören ins Pantheon der Weltliteratur.

Humanities & Social SciencesSeptember 2020Manliness in Britain, 1760–1900
Bodies, emotion, and material culture
by Joanne Begiato
This book offers an innovative account of manliness in Britain between 1760 and 1900. Using diverse textual, visual and material culture sources, it shows that masculinities were produced and disseminated through men's bodies -often working-class ones - and the emotions and material culture associated with them. The book analyses idealised men who stimulated desire and admiration, including virile boxers, soldiers, sailors and blacksmiths, brave firemen and noble industrial workers. It also investigates unmanly men, such as drunkards, wife-beaters and masturbators, who elicited disgust and aversion. Unusually, Manliness in Britain runs from the eras of feeling, revolution and reform to those of militarism, imperialism, representative democracy and mass media, periods often dealt with separately by historians of masculinities.
