Philippe Foret, Andreas Kaplony - The Journey of M aps and Images on the Silk Road (2008).jpg

This book covers new ground on the diffusion and transmission of geographical knowledge that occurred at critical junctures in the long history of the Silk Road. Much of twentieth-century scholarship on the Silk Road examined the ancient archaeological objects and medieval historical records found within each cultural area, while the consequences of long-distance interaction across Eurasia remained poorly studied. Here ample attention is given to the journeys that notions and objects undertook to transmit spatial values to other civilizations. In retracing the steps of four major circuits right across the many civilizations that shared the Silk Road, "The Journey of Maps and Images on the Silk Road" traces the ways in which maps and images surmounted spatial, historical and cultural divisions.

John King - Kingdoms of the Celts; A History and G uide (2000).jpg

Interest in things Celtic has grown in the last generation, with an increasingly political aspect, for example in the establishment of a Scottish Parliament and the enhanced status granted to the Welsh language. The claims of the Celtic nations often stem from medieval and earlier events, many of which are poorly documented. King, a writer, teacher, and speaker of Cornish, a Celtic language revived in this century, has written a readable and informative introduction to the Celtic kingdoms. He gives clear descriptions of distant and complicated periods and also discusses major mythological or semihistorical figures like Cuhullain and King Arthur. Most titles in the field cover a specific area, but King provides a more general survey, discussing not only Ireland, Scotland, and Wales but Brittany and Cornwall as well. The book includes helpful maps, illustrations, and reasonable notes for a general work, plus several lists, such as the Irish High Kings and principal Scottish clans. Highly recommended for Celtic collections.ACharles V. Cowling, Drake Memorial Lib., Brockport, NY

R. J. Stewart - Celtic Myths, Celtic Legends (1996 ).jpg

As English composer Stewart states, this is not an academic translation but a collection of tales that are retold with lavish illustrations. Stewart selected the Celtic stories from collections and man-uscripts, interpretations and reworkings of Celtic myths, and traditional ballads and tales. The ten stories come from Wales, Ireland, Brittany, England, and Scotland, suggesting the storytelling range of the Celts. These are hard-edged stories that illustrate the cruelty of an early people, but they are also fanciful and lovely. The author's retelling of these stories is very poetic and beautiful. Recommended for collections with a high interest in Celtic myths and stories.

Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann - The Politics of Sociabili ty; Freemasonry and German Civil Society, 1840-191 8 (2007).jpg

Historia2 - Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann - The Politics of Sociability F...y Freemasonry and German Civil Society, 1840-1918 2007.jpg

An ambitious, original work, The Politics of Sociability is Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann's exploration of the social and political significance of Freemasonry in German history. Drawing on de Tocqueville's theory that without civic virtue there is no civil society, and that civic virtue unfolds only through the social interaction between citizens, Hoffmann examines the critical link between Freemasonry and the evolution of German civil society in the late nineteenth century. The practice of Masonic sociability reflected an enlightened belief in the political significance of moral virtue for civil society, indeed, for humanity. Freemasons' self-image as civilizing agents, acting in good faith and with the unimpeachable idea of universal brotherhood, was contradicted not only by their heightened sense of exclusivity; Freemasons unintentionally exacerbated nineteenth-century political conflicts---for example, between liberals and Catholics, or Germans and French---by employing a universalist language.

Using a wealth of archival sources previously unavailable, Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann shows how Freemasonry became a social refuge for elevated and liberal-minded bourgeois men who felt attracted to its secret rituals and moral teachings. German Freemasons sought to reform self and society but, Hoffmann argues, ultimately failed to balance modern politics with a cosmopolitan ethos. Hoffmann illuminates a capacious history of the political effects of Enlightenment concepts and practices in a century marked by nationalism, social discord, and religious conflict.

Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann is Assistant Professor of Modern History at Ruhr-University Bochum. The German edition of this book, Die Politik der Geselligkeit: Freimaurerlogen in der deutschen Bürgergesellschaft, 1840-1918 (Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2000), won the Association of German Historians' 2002 Hedwig Hintze Prize for Best First Book.

Tom Lampert was born in Boston in 1962 and grew up in northern California. He received a BA in political science from Stanford University (1986) and a PhD in government from Cornell (1998). His book, Ein einziges Leben (Hanser Verlag 2001) was published as One Life by Harcourt in 2004, which he translated himself. Lampert has worked as a freelance translator since 1998. He currently lives in Bad Kreuznach, Germany.

Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann - The Politics of Sociabili ty; Freemasonry and German Civil Society, 1840-191 8 (2007).pdf

"This is an exemplary study of the role of Freemasonry in the German Bürgergesellschaft (civil society) of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, concise, comprehensive, and well written. It combines social profiling with a careful examination of contemporary concepts in a long-term diachronic study, based on an impressive amount of primary material. . . . Hoffmann's empirically and methodologically convincing study is not only a major contribution to our understanding of Freemasonry in the German Bürgergesellschaft. It also reflects the complex social and political transformation of German society in the nineteenth century and the difficulties contemporaries faced in responding to it."
---German History

"Hoffmann's arguments are theoretically informed, supported by a wealth of archival sources. . . . Indeed, in many ways this is the best combination of painstaking social history and well-argued Begriffsgeschichte (conceptual history). . . . One of the great virtues of this book is that Hoffmann does not shy away from the contradictions in the Freemasons' rhetoric and actions. Such contradictions, in fact, are key to the Mason's importance, because they force us to rethink some of our assumptions about Imperial Germany. . . . This is an important book that encourages us to rethink many of our characterizations of the German Kaiserreich and our assumptions about civil society."
---Central European History

"Based on a rich variety of sources. . . . Hoffmann explores the evolving relationship between Freemasonry and the monarchy, state, and church, and he also scrutinizes the internal practices and discourse of these notoriously secretive and cosmopolitan societies. . . . Hoffmann engages fruitfully with a wide historiography covering themes such as masculinity and racism, he dissects the complex attitude of Freemasonry to Jews and Catholics, and he scrutinizes the attacks of its conservative, clerical, and antisemitic critics."

Christoppher A. Faraone, Laura K. McClure - Prosti tutes and Courtesans in the Ancient World (2006).jpg

"Demonstrates, quite splendidly, how the study of prostitution in the ancient world provides crucial insight into the nature of ancient life, its mores, social practices, and political ideologies and discourses."
—Ellen Greene, author of The Erotics of Domination

Prostitutes and Courtesans in the Ancient World explores the implications of sex-for-pay across a broad span of time, from ancient Mesopotamia to the early Christian period. In ancient times, although they were socially marginal, prostitutes connected with almost every aspect of daily life. They sat in brothels and walked the streets; they paid taxes and set up dedications in religious sanctuaries; they appeared as characters—sometimes admirable, sometimes despicable—on the comic stage and in the law courts; they lived lavishly, consorting with famous poets and politicians; and they participated in otherwise all-male banquets and drinking parties, where they aroused jealousy among their anxious lovers.

The chapters in this volume examine a wide variety of genres and sources, from legal and religious tracts to the genres of lyric poetry, love elegy, and comic drama to the graffiti scrawled on the walls of ancient Pompeii. These essays reflect the variety and vitality of the debates engendered by the last three decades of research by confronting the ambiguous terms for prostitution in ancient languages, the difficulty of distinguishing the prostitute from the woman who is merely promiscuous or adulterous, the question of whether sacred or temple prostitution actually existed in the ancient Near East and Greece, and the political and social implications of literary representations of prostitutes and courtesans.

"This volume engages provocatively with previous studies on the topic of prostitution in Greece, Rome, and the Near East. The readable style and lively English translations will make this book accessible not only to students and specialists but also to the broader reading public."—Judith P. Hallett, coeditor of Roman Sexualities

Christopher A. Faraone is professor of classics at the University of Chicago, author of Ancient Greek Love Magic, and coeditor of Magika Hiera: Ancient Greek Magic and Religion. Laura K. McClure is professor of classics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, author of Courtesans at Table: Gender and Greek Literary Culture in Athenaeus, and editor of Sexuality and Gender in the Ancient World.

Stephanie Budin - Myth of Sacred Prostitution in A ntiquity (2008).jpg

In this study, Stephanie Budin demonstrates that sacred prostitution, the sale of a person??'s body for sex in which some or all of the money earned was devoted to a deity or a temple, did not exist in the ancient world. Reconsidering the evidence from the ancient Near East, the Greco-Roman texts, and the Early Christian authors, Budin shows that the majority of sources that have traditionally been understood as pertaining to sacred prostitution actually have nothing to do with this institution. The few texts that are usually invoked on this subject are, moreover, terribly misunderstood. Furthermore, contrary to many current hypotheses, the creation of the myth of sacred prostitution has nothing to do with notions of accusation or the construction of a decadent, Oriental ???Other.??? Instead, the myth has come into being as a result of more than 2,000 years of misinterpretations, false assumptions, and faulty methodology. The study of sacred prostitution is, effectively, a historiographical reckoning.

Sharon Bailey Glasco - Constructing Mexico City; C olonial Conflicts over Culture, Space, and Authori ty (2010).jpg

Historia2 - Sharon Bailey Glasco - Constructing Mexico City Coloni...ial Conflicts over Culture, Space, and Authority 2010.jpg

Constructing Mexico City: Colonial Conflicts over Culture, Space, and Authority examines the spatial, material, and cultural dimensions of life in eighteenth-century Mexico City, through programs that colonial leaders created to renovate and reshape urban environments. Focusing particularly on the administration of Viceroy Juan Vicente de Güemes Pacheco y Padilla, the second count of Revillagigedo (1789-1794), this book considers how the Spanish Bourbon reforms were re-imagined at the local level in Mexico City, within the context of the built environment and the people who define, occupied, and used space within the colonial capital. The plans and ideas of Revillagigedo place him within a broader network of colonial bureaucrats who sought to improve and transform the Spanish Empire in the age of Enlightenment.

As a representative of these Bourbon reforms, Revillagigedo lived among the subjects of his plans. However, these urban groups: Indians, Spanish elites, and those of mixed race background, were not simply passive recipients of his agenda, but contested and questioned his vision of a modern urban milieu. By focusing on the tensions between the colonial state and its citizens within the realm of urban planning and reform, this study reveals various points of conflict and discord not only over how various social groups defined and shared the public spaces in the city, but also how they understood their place within a wider colonial system. Bailey Glasco, drawing on research from numerous archives in Mexico City, sheds new light on the critical roles that urban planning and renewal played in the social and cultural dynamics of the city, as well as how it anticipated early definitions of modern Mexican identity.

Historia2 - John Jeffries Martin, Dennis Romano - Venice Reconside...ivilization of an Italian City-State, 1297--1797 2002.jpg

Venice Reconsidered offers a dynamic portrait of Venice from the establishment of the Republic at the end of the thirteenth century to its fall to Napoleon in 1797. In contrast to earlier efforts to categorize Venice's politics as strictly republican and its society as rigidly tripartite and hierarchical, the scholars in this volume present a more fluid and complex interpretation of Venetian culture. Drawing on a variety of disciplines--history, art history, and musicology--these essays present innovative variants of the myth of Venice--that nearly inexhaustible repertoire of stories Venetians told about themselves.g

Richard W. Unger - Ships on Maps; Pictures of Powe r in Renaissance Europe (2010).jpg

Ships on maps in the sixteenth century were signs of European conquest of the seas. Cartographers commemorated the new found dominion over the oceans by putting the most technically advanced ships of the day all over oceans, estuaries, rivers, and lakes on all kinds of maps. Ships virtually never appeared on maps before 1375. The dramatic change from medieval practice had roots in practical problems but also in exploration and new geographical knowledge. Map makers produced beautiful works of art and decorated them with the accomplishments which set Europeans apart from their classical past and from all the other peoples of the world. Ships on Maps investigates how, long admired but little understood, the many ships big and small that came to decorate maps in the age when sailors began to sail around the world were an integral part of the information summarizing a new age.

Historia2 - I. E. S. Edwards, C. J. Gadd, N. G. L. Hammond, E. Sol...Middle East and the Aegean Region, c.1800-1380 BC 2008.jpg

Volumes I and II of The Cambridge Ancient History have had to be entirely rewritten as a result of the very considerable additions to knowledge which have accrued in the past forty-five years. For the same reason it has also been necessary to increase the size of the volumes and to divide each of them into two separately published parts. The individual chapters have already appeared as fascicles, but without maps, indexes and chronological tables which, for practical reasons, have been reserved for these volumes. Some additions and corrections have also been made in order to bring the text, as far as possible, up to date. Together the new volumes provide a history of Egypt and the Ancient Orient (including Greece and the Aegean region) down to 1000 BC in a form suitable for both specialist and student. Volume II, Part I, deals with the history of the region from about 1800 to 1380 BC. This was the era of Hammurabi in Western Asia, the Hyksos and warrior-kings of the Eighteenth Dynasty in Egypt, and the Minoan and early Mycenaean civilizations in Crete and mainland Greece.

Ian Inkster - History of Technology Volume 29; Tec hnology in China (2009).jpg

"The common question from the western point of view is of the sort; why did China lose its early leadership of productive technologies to Europe during the early modern period? Answers to this seemingly clear enquiry vary from general cultural inwardness to the interferences of imperial governance. This collection surveys such theories but alters the issue by raising the notion that Chinese technologies did not so much fail as move along a path different from that of Europe Our second collection on the Mindful Hand, also shifts common ground by querying and modifying common views of the links between knowledge and technique in early-modern European development. Scientific or related knowledge was not brought to technique as a socio-cultural gift from an educated elite to the working man. Rather, educated gents, practitioners, instrument makers, craftsfolk and technicians of all kinds intermingled both socially and in terms of the recognition of technical problems as well as in the assemblage of the mental, commercial and cognitive resources required to pursue innovative production projects."

Markus Bockmuehl and Guy G. Stroumsa - Paradise in Antiquity; Jewish and Christian Views (2010).jpg

The social and intellectual vitality of Judaism and Christianity in antiquity was in large part a function of their ability to articulate a viably transcendent hope for the human condition. Narratives of Paradise - based on the concrete symbol of the Garden of Delights - came to play a central role for Jews, Christians, and eventually Muslims too. These collected essays highlight the multiple hermeneutical perspectives on biblical Paradise from Second Temple Judaism and Christian origins to the systematic expositions of Augustine and rabbinic literature. They show that while early Christian and Jewish sources draw on texts from the same Bible, their perceptions of Paradise often reflect the highly different structures of the two sister religions. Dealing with a wide variety of texts, these essays explore major themes such as the allegorical and literal interpretations of Paradise, the tension between heaven and earth, and Paradise's physical location in space and time.

Concord - Tim Newark - Ancient Armies (2000).jpg

This is another wonderfully illustrated title for Concord Publishing along with 'Barbarians' and 'Imperial Rome at War.' Tim Newark provides short ovreviews of the various militaries of the the ancient world, adding some interesting anecdotes here and there - for instance, he mentions one Roman centurion charging into battle with a burning coal attached to his helmet, in order to scare the superstitious Celts!

Unfortunately, not all of Newark's writings are up to date with modern scholarship, and there are a few errors in the text. Still, the main reason to buy the book is to see Angus McBride's wonderful colour plates. There are 20 in all, these include -

1.Sumerian Warband gather outside city temple in southern Iraq, c.2500 BC.
2.Egyptian Pharaoh Horemhab fighting Nubians in Upper Nile, late 14th century BC.
3.Muwattalis, King of the Hittites, late 14th century BC.
4.Syrian archers, 14th Century BC.
5.Egyptian Pharaoh Ramesses II at the battle of Qadesh in Syria, 1300 BC.
6.Tiglath-Pileser III, King of Assyria, recieves the acclamation of his warriors, late 8th century BC.
7.Hoplites clash with Hoplites, Greece, 7th century BC.
8.Nabopolassar, king of Babylon, and king of Scythia at fall of Nineveh, 612 BC.
9.Cyrus, King of the Persians, at fall of Babylon, 539 BC.
10.Battle of Salamis, 480 BC.
11.Etruscans battle Celtic raiders, northern Italy, 5th century BC.
12.Alexander the Great at the siege of Tyre, 332 BC.
13.Alexander the Great's army defeats Indian warriors at the battle of Hydaspes in northern India, 326 BC.
14.Carthaginian and Celtic Warriors, 218 BC.
15.Carthaginian African cavalry drive Romans into the river at Trebia, 218 BC.
16.Carthaginian war elephant attacking Romans, 218 BC.
17.Carthaginians attack Romans at the battle of Zama, 202 BC.
18.Seleucid war elephant, 190 BC.
19.Romans clash with Gauls, 52 BC.
20.Celtic British chariots charge Roman formations in southern Britain, 1st century BC.

There are also two pages on ancient headgear and helmets, although these are just black and white line drawings.

All in all, I recommend this to anyone who is curious about Bronze and Iron age warfare and would like a great visual guide to this period.

Historia2 - Nicholas Hooper, Matthew Bennett - The Cambridge Illus...rated Atlas of Warfare The Middle Ages, 768-1487 1996.jpg

Warfare in the Middle Ages is often characterized as being dominated by lone, heroic knights or enormous mobs of plodding infantry. In this colorful and informative book, authors Hooper and Bennett debunk many of the myths surrounding medieval warfare to present a picture of a military culture as sophisticated as our modern one, with well organized armies and a high degree of tactical intelligence. The authors make their case by masterful use of high-quality maps, battle plans, and pictorial essays that explore such topics as siege warfare, the use of cavalry, the development of naval warfare, medieval science and warfare, and the legacy of the Middle Ages in modern military warfare. The Atlas spans the period from the coronation of Charlemagne to the last of the English Wars of the Roses and covers campaigns in and around Europe and the Mediterranean. The illustrations depict all levels of warfare from the strategic campaigns down to individual battles, fortifications, and weaponry. The lucid narrative that accompanies the pictures explains the course of campaigns and lessons to be learned from them. This book is written for the general reader with an interest in the history of warfare.
