Archibald Gordon Macdonell - Napoleon i jego marsz ałkowie (2009).jpg

Trudno o ciekawsze `dossier` niż losy dwudziestu sześciu marszałków, tworzących zbiór barwnych charakterów i zadziwiających karier. Przez kilkanaście lat ludzie ci, nazywani przez własnych żołnierzy "wielkimi czapami", prowadzili ich do walki, wywracając trony, zmieniając granice i siłą zastępując stary porządek nowym. Ich zalety i wady, talenty i nieudolność wpływały decydująco na zwycięstwa i klęski Napoleona, a zatem na losy świata.

Michael H. Hart - 100 postaci, które miały najwięk szy wpływ na dzieje ludzkości (1995).jpg

Po ukazaniu się w 1987 roku pierwszego wydania książki Michaela Harta "100 postaci..." krytycy zarzucali Autorowi, że ośmielił się nie tylko rozstrzygać, które osobistości wywarły największy wpływ na dzieje świata, lecz i subiektywnie je klasyfikować.

Wbrew zastrzeżeniom krytyków książka odniosła ogromny sukces; sprzedano dziesiątki tysięcy egzemplarzy. Autor z czasem doszedł do wniosku, że od napisania książki ranga niektórych jej bohaterów wzrosła, innych zmniejszyła się, a pewne nazwiska - pierwotnie pominięte - zajaśniały nowym blaskiem. Tak zarysował się pomysł opublikowania nowej i uzupełnionej wersji "100 postaci...". Jak w poprzednim wydaniu, również tutaj jedynym kryterium doboru postaci jest zakres ich wpływu na losy milionów istot ludzkich, powstanie czy upadek cywilizacji lub zmianę biegu historii.

Sumując w poszczególnych biografiach informacje o najbardziej wpływowych przywódcach politycznych i religijnych świata, wynalazcach, filozofach, pisarzach, artystach i odkrywcach - Michael Hart prezentuje nowe spojrzenie na historię i współczesność.

Jego oceny często mogą zaskakiwać. Nie Jezus więc czy Marks, lecz Mahomet jest według Autora postacią, która miała największy wpływ na losy ludzkości. Argumenty Harta bywają prowokujące, lecz nierzadko trafiają do przekonania.

"100 postaci..." to dzieło niezwykłe, książka, która budzi kontrowersje, inspiruje - i z pewnością zdobędzie popularność nie mniejszą niż jej wydanie amerykańskie.

Many American history books begin with the year 1492 and the discovery of the Caribbean Islands by Spanish explorer Christopher Columbus (1451-1506). For the great civilizations of Mesoamerica and South America, though, 1492 proved to be the beginning of the end of their civilization. The products of thousands of years of history the great cities, the architecture, markets, governments, economic systems, legal systems, schools, books, holy shrines even the daily prayers of the people were about to be willfully eliminated by the conquering European nations...

Jaques Barzun - From Dawn to Decadence, 500 Years of Western Cultural Life (2000).jpg

In the last half-millennium, as the noted cultural critic and historian Jacques Barzun observes, great revolutions have swept the Western world. Each has brought profound change--for instance, the remaking of the commercial and social worlds wrought by the rise of Protestantism and by the decline of hereditary monarchies. And each, Barzun hints, is too little studied or appreciated today, in a time he does not hesitate to label as decadent.

To leaf through Barzun's sweeping, densely detailed but lightly written survey of the last 500 years is to ride a whirlwind of world-changing events. Barzun ponders, for instance, the tumultuous political climate of Renaissance Italy, which yielded mayhem and chaos, but also the work of Michelangelo and Leonardo--and, he adds, the scientific foundations for today's consumer culture of boom boxes and rollerblades. He considers the 16th-century varieties of religious experimentation that arose in the wake of Martin Luther's 95 theses, some of which led to the repression of individual personality, others of which might easily have come from the "Me Decade." Along the way, he offers a miniature history of the detective novel, defends Surrealism from its detractors, and derides the rise of professional sports, packing in a wealth of learned and often barbed asides.

Never shy of controversy, Barzun writes from a generally conservative position; he insists on the importance of moral values, celebrates the historical contributions of Christopher Columbus, and twits the academic practitioners of political correctness. Whether accepting of those views or not, even the most casual reader will find much that is new or little-explored in this attractive venture into cultural history.

Andrew H. Gordon, Calvin W. Schwabe - The Quick An d The Dead, Biomedical Theory in Ancient Egypt (20 04).jpg

This volume uses a cross-disciplinary approach to examine the origins of ancient Egyptian medicine in the domestication, care and sacrifice of cattle. Ritual cattle sacrifice in Egypt led to a rudimentary understanding of animal anatomy and physiology, which was then applied to humans. Two original theories developed from this comparative medicine: Life as movement, especially seen in the fasciolations of excised limbs, and the male's role in reproduction. Discussions include Egypt as a cattle culture, the ka as an animating force, 'living flesh,' the possible animal origins of the ankh, djed and was hieroglyphs, the bull's foreleg and the Opening-of-the-Mouth ritual, Egypt's healing establishment, and veterinary medicine as it relates to the origin of human medicine.

Olaf Asbach, Peter Schroder - War, the State and I nternational Law in Seventeenth-Century Europe (20 10).jpeg

One of the great paradoxes of post-medieval Europe, is why instead of bringing peace to a disorganized and violent world, modernity instead produced a seemingly endless string of conflicts and social upheavals. Why was it that the foundation and institutionalization of secured peace and the rule of law seemed to go hand-in-hand with the proliferation of war and the violation of individual and collective rights? In order to try to better understand such profound questions, this volume explores the history and theories of political thought of international relations in the seventeenth century, a period in which many of the defining features and boundaries of modern Europe where fixed and codified. With the discovery of the New World, and the fundamental impact of the Reformation, the complexity of international relations increased considerably. Reactions to these upheavals resulted in a range of responses intended to address the contradictions and conflicts of the anarchical society of states. Alongside the emergence of 'modern' international law, the equation of international relations with the state of nature, and the development of the 'balance of power', diplomatic procedures and commercial customs arose which shaped the emerging (and current) international system of states. Employing a multidisciplinary approach to address these issues, this volume brings together political scientists, philosophers, historians of political thought, jurists and scholars of international relations. What emerges is a certain tension between the different strands of research which allows for a fruitful new synthesis. In this respect the assembled essays in this volume offer a sophisticated and fresh account of the interactions of law, conflict and the nation state in an early-modern European context.

Cathal J. Nolan - The Concise Encyclopedia of Worl d War II, 2 Volume Set (2010).jpg

This “concise” work seeks to provide a synthesis one of the most complex and expansive subjects of the twentieth century and possibly human history into a usable reference tool. In addition to focusing on significant battles, leaders, politics, and diplomacy, author Nolan (International History Institute) devotes considerable attention to issues on the eastern front as well as the effects of the war on peripheral participants and neutrals. Although there is some discussion of related facts, this is not an encyclopedia of the home front, social movements, or the Holocaust. For the most part, this is a work dedicated to the operations, campaigns, battles, and principal political and military actors in what was the most destructive total war to date. Each volume begins with a comprehensive list of entries and 20 black-and-white maps representing engagements in all theaters of the war, for example, the Battle of the Bulge and Leyte Gulf. The alphabetically arranged entries range in length from single lines (Command post, Dime Force, Interdiction, S-phone) to up to several pages for key individuals (Hermann Goring, Henri Pétain), battles, campaigns, and operations (Ardennes Offensive, Philippines, TORCH) as well as general terms (Aircraft carriers, Fascism, Rations). Other examples of entries include Blockade running, Eastern front, Imperial Japanese Navy, RADAR, U-boats, and Yalta Conference. Most of the larger entries include a suggested reading. Numerous see and see also references aid in navigation. Volume 2 concludes with a comprehensive index and a 32-page categorized, select bibliography for further research. Although any work attempting to cover such a huge topic concisely faces the twin pitfalls of selection and exclusion, Nolan has brought his considerable talents and flair for economic and engaging writing to the task and produced what is certainly an impressive reference work, recommended for larger public libraries and undergraduate collections. It may not be a necessary purchase for libraries that already own the five-volume Encyclopedia of World War II: A Political, Social, and Military History (2005), which has numerous black-and-white photographs and several hundred documents in addition to many more entries. Also available as an e-book. --Brian Odom

Cultural imperialism and acculturation find close counterparts in many of the policies and attitudes of Napoleonic administrators in their Italian provinces, explored here from the rich archival sources of the Parisian and Italian archives, long neglected by scholars. Broers repositions the context in which the Napoleonic empire can be studied, and reconfigures the political and historical geography of Italy, in the century before its Unification in 1859.

Holger H. Herwig - The Marne, 1914, The Opening of World War I and the Battle That Changed the World (2011).jpg

All History - Holger H. Herwig - The Marne, 1914, The Opening of Wo...orld War I and the Battle That Changed the World 2011.jpg

Herwig's engrossing narrative of the first battle of the Marne in 1914, really a history of the first six weeks of fighting on the western front, treats the clash as a study in best-laid plans gone awry. The chaos and miscalculation that derailed both the German and French armies' meticulously wrought strategies owed much, Herwig shows, to a new and ghastly style of warfare in which machine guns and heavy artillery rendered courage irrelevant. But his account is also an analysis of generalship, pitting the German commander, Helmuth von Moltke, a weak leader who lost his grip on his armies in the midst of dazzling successes, and French Gen. Joseph Joffre, who imperturbably slapped together new defenses amid disastrous defeats. Herwig combines colorful evocations of the horrors of the fighting with a lucid operational history of the campaign. An immense bloodbath that was supposed to be climactic but proved only a prelude to worse carnage, the Marne becomes, in Herwig's telling, an apt microcosm of the war to end all wars. 16 pages of b&w photos; maps.

Jared Diamond - Guns, Germs, and Steel, The Fates of Human Societies (1999).jpg

Explaining what William McNeill called The Rise of the West has become the central problem in the study of global history. In Guns, Germs, and Steel Jared Diamond presents the biologist's answer: geography, demography, and ecological happenstance. Diamond evenhandedly reviews human history on every continent since the Ice Age at a rate that emphasizes only the broadest movements of peoples and ideas. Yet his survey is binocular: one eye has the rather distant vision of the evolutionary biologist, while the other eye--and his heart--belongs to the people of New Guinea, where he has done field work for more than 30 years.

L. Curtis Jr., L. Perry Curtis - Jack the Ripper a nd the London Press (2001).jpg

Filling a perceived gap in "Ripperature," Curtis examines how 14 London newspapers covered the Whitechapel murders attributed to Jack the Ripper in 1888. Curtis (history, emeritus, Brown) begins with a brief account of the crimes and a description of the impoverished East End of London, where the murders occurred. He then devotes three chapters to the state of Victorian journalism, with emphasis on how murders and other sensational news were reported. Only about half of the book actually analyzes the Ripper reportage, which, like today's journalism, reflected the social, political, and moral climate of the time. Although Victorian sensibilities dictated that certain details be sanitized or omitted altogether, competition among the daily and weekly papers led each to devote increasing space to the investigations and to the associated speculation and analysis. With its decidedly Anglocentric vocabulary and with close to 700 endnotes (many containing details that are far from marginal), this scholarly work may prove slow going for the amateur U.S. Ripperologist.
