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.

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.

August 1999Das Frankfurter Goethe-Haus
by Hans-Georg Dewitz, Petra Maisak, Christoph Perels
Im Mittelpunkt des Ganzen steht ein übersichtlich gestalteter, reich bebilderter und lebendig kommentierter ›Führer‹, der zu einem Rundgang durch die Räume des Goethe-Hauses einlädt: von der Küche im Erdgeschoß bis hinauf in die Mansarde zum Dichterzimmer, in dem der junge Goethe am Stehpult seinen ›Götz‹ und ›Werther‹ schrieb.
