Uniformology CD-2004-17 - The French Colonial Army 1832-1914 (2004).jpg

The French Colonial Army 1832-1914 This is an excellent set of 36 prints was originally published in the early 1930’s. It covers the four most famous French foreign military organizations that supplied effective fighting forces for the French Government for over a Century; the Spahis, the Chasseurs d’Afrique, the Foreign Legion and the Algerian Tirailleurs. While the British has their Gurkas and Indian regiments, and the Germans their African troops no other nation fielded more effective and feared foreign troops than France. Their brilliant and colorful uniforms are every bit as striking as their combat effectiveness. (36 plates)
Detaille’s French Colonial Troops Ca. 1886 8 prints done by Edouard Detaille early in his career. They were done in 1886 of the French Army of Africa. These are the great illustrations portraying the incredible character and detail of these professional warriors. (8 plates)

Michael Sonenscher - Before the Deluge, Public Deb t, Inequality, and the Intellectual Origins of the French Revolution (2007).jpg

All History - Michael Sonenscher - Before the Deluge, Public Debt, ...he Intellectual Origins of the French Revolution 2007.jpg

Ever since the French Revolution, Madame de Pompadour's comment, "Après moi, le déluge" (after me, the deluge), has looked like a callous if accurate prophecy of the political cataclysms that began in 1789. But decades before the Bastille fell, French writers had used the phrase to describe a different kind of selfish recklessness--not toward the flood of revolution but, rather, toward the flood of public debt. In Before the Deluge, Michael Sonenscher examines these fears and the responses to them, and the result is nothing less than a new way of thinking about the intellectual origins of the French Revolution. In this nightmare vision of the future, many prerevolutionary observers predicted that the pressures generated by modern war finance would set off a chain of debt defaults that would either destroy established political orders or cause a sudden lurch into despotic rule. Nor was it clear that constitutional government could keep this possibility at bay. Constitutional government might make public credit more secure, but public credit might undermine constitutional government itself. Before the Deluge examines how this predicament gave rise to a widespread eighteenth-century interest in figuring out how to establish and maintain representative governments able to realize the promise of public credit while avoiding its peril. By doing so, the book throws new light on a neglected aspect of modern political thought and on the French Revolution.

Rana Mitter - A Bitter Revolution, China's Struggl e with the Modern World (2004).jpg

This is a fascinating look at a pivotal time in the formation of the culture of modern China. The "Bitter Revolution" of the title is not the Communist Revolution of 1949 or the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s, but the revolution of ideas that climaxed in the mass anti-imperialist protests of May 4, 1919. Known as the May Fourth Movement, these student-led protests engendered tumultuous cultural eddies that disturbed all aspects of Chinese life. Mitter's focus on this underappreciated fulcrum of modern Chinese history is refreshing. Chinese Communist historiography has mythologized the May Fourth Movement as the youthful harbinger of the 1949 revolution. Mitter goes beyond such teleological myths to recapture the often desperate and heady atmosphere of the "New Culture Movement," which paralleled the political tumult. She reveals antecedents to later events, including developments as disparate as the Cultural Revolution and the recent decades of economic and cultural liberalization. Especially interesting were new attitudes toward gender relations, sexuality, marriage and family. In many ways, the individualism and experimentation of that era have more in common with contemporary China than the intervening decades of wartime and Communist collectivism and conformity—a compelling reason why this history of early 20th-century China is so relevant today. What is most intriguing about Mitter's account is not what was lost in the dark decades that followed, but how much endured.

Siriol Davies - Between Venice and Istanbul, Colon ial Landscapes in Early Modern Greece (2007).jpg

"Despite growing interest, the archaeology of the so-called Post-Byzantine era in Greece remains a poor cousin of classical studies. The papers in this volume survey the different regions of Greece from an archaeological as well as a documentary perspective, attempting to reveal common themes in the development of landscapes and sites between 1500 and 1800.

Steve Pincus - 1688, The First Modern Revolution ( 2009).jpg

For two hundred years historians have viewed England’s Glorious Revolution of 1688–1689 as an un-revolutionary revolution—bloodless, consensual, aristocratic, and above all, sensible. In this brilliant new interpretation Steve Pincus refutes this traditional view.

By expanding the interpretive lens to include a broader geographical and chronological frame, Pincus demonstrates that England’s revolution was a European event, that it took place over a number of years, not months, and that it had repercussions in India, North America, the West Indies, and throughout continental Europe. His rich historical narrative, based on masses of new archival research, traces the transformation of English foreign policy, religious culture, and political economy that, he argues, was the intended consequence of the revolutionaries of 1688–1689.

James II developed a modernization program that emphasized centralized control, repression of dissidents, and territorial empire. The revolutionaries, by contrast, took advantage of the new economic possibilities to create a bureaucratic but participatory state. The postrevolutionary English state emphasized its ideological break with the past and envisioned itself as continuing to evolve. All of this, argues Pincus, makes the Glorious Revolution—not the French Revolution—the first truly modern revolution. This wide-ranging book reenvisions the nature of the Glorious Revolution and of revolutions in general, the causes and consequences of commercialization, the nature of liberalism, and ultimately the origins and contours of modernity itself.

Uniformology CD-2004-15) - Marbot’s French Army of the 16th, 17th and 18th Centuries (2004).jpg

The Marbot Prints - These prints by different artists were published in France between 1840 and 1853. They were carefully researched and provide the best information we have on the French army from the early 1500's until the Napoleonic Wars. They are without question the foundation for most later works.

Jon Abbink - Rethinking Resistance, Revolt and Vio lence in African History (2003).jpg

This work covers the subject of resistance. Were political forms of resistance directed at the imposition or ending of colonial rule or at African elites profiting from the onset of capitalist relations of production? This work aims to answer this question and more.

Lynn Hunt - The Family Romance of the French Revol ution (1993).jpg

This latest work from an author known for her contributions to the new cultural history is a multidisciplinary investigation of the foundations of modern politics. "Family Romance" was coined by Freud to describe the fantasy of being freed from one's family and joining one of higher social standing. Lynn Hunt uses the term broadly to describe the images of the familial order underlying revolutionary politics. In a wide-ranging account using novels, engravings, paintings, speeches, newspaper editorials, pornographic writing, and revolutionary legislation about the family, Hunt shows that politics were experienced through the grid of the family romance.

Alan Barnard - Antropologia (2000).jpg

Książka Alana Barnarda jest jedną z najlepszych książek o historii i teorii antropologii, jakie ukazały się w ostatnich latach na świecie. Autor, antropolog z Uniwersytetu Edynburskiego, przedstawia największe debaty, śledzi pochodzenie koncepcji i szkół oraz zarysowuje najważniejsze zagadnienia tej niezwykle intensywnie rozwijającej się dyscypliny. Rozpoczyna od filozoficznych i socjologicznych prekursorów antropologii, następnie poprzez ewolucjonizm, dyfuzjonizm, funkcjonalizm i ujęcia marksistowskie zmierza w stronę teorii współczesnych: antropologii relatywistycznej, kognitywistycznej i postmodernistycznej. Jest to wyczerpujące wprowadzenie do antropologii kulturowej i społecznej dla osób zainteresowanych tą dyscypliną, a zarazem znakomite kompendium wiedzy dla czytelników zaawansowanych.

Peter McPhee - The French Revolution, 1789-1799 (2 002).jpg

This book provides a succinct yet up-to-date and challenging approach to the French Revolution of 1789-1799 and its consequences. Peter McPhee provides an accessible and reliable overview and one which deliberately introduces students to central debates among historians. The book has two main aims. One aim is to consider the origins and nature of the Revolution of 1789-99. Why was there a Revolution in France in 1789? Why did the Revolution follow its particular course after 1789? When was it 'over'? A second aim is to examine the significance of the Revolutionary period in accelerating the decay of Ancien Regime society. How 'revolutionary' was the Revolution? Was France fundamentally changed as a result of it? Of particular interest to students will be the emphasis placed by the author on the repercussions of the Revolution on the practives of daily life: the lived experience of the Revolution. The author's recent work on the environmental impact of the Revolution is also incorporated to provide a lively, modern, and rounded picture of France during this critical phase in the development of modern Europe.

R. Ewart Oakeshott - Archaeology of Weapons, Arms and Armour from Prehistory to the Age of Chivalry (1996).jpg

All History - R. Ewart Oakeshott - Archaeology of Weapons, Arms and...d Armour from Prehistory to the Age of Chivalry 1996.jpg

This fascinating book is the magnum opus of author and sword-expert Ewart Oakeshott (1916-2002). In it, the author traces the evolution of European (and only European) arms from prehistory to the fifteenth century. He shows how weapons changed in shape and composition, sometimes due to changes in technology (for example in the change from bronze to iron) and sometimes due to changes in society (for example in the development of chivalry).

Overall, I found this to be a highly readable, and yet extremely informative book. The author does a great job of explaining the evolution of weapons in a clear and easy-to-understand manner. I enjoyed the many picture and illustrations that are peppered throughout the book, finding them very useful for understanding the text.

Now, as you might expect with a book by a sword-expert, this book focuses primarily on the development of the sword, but as the sword has usually been considered the king of the pre-gunpowder battlefield, this is not a great surprise. So, let me just say that this is a great book for understanding European weapons of any era, and of the evolution of the weapons in general. I think that this is a great book on ancient and medieval weapons, one that I would not hesitate to recommend to all readers

David Reynolds - Summits. Six meetings that shaped the XXth Century (2009).jpg

Starred Review. John F. Kennedy opined that nations in conflict would do better to meet at the summit than at the brink. Reynolds had the intriguing idea of examining the conflicts of the 20th century through the lens of its pivotal summit meetings. Given his Cambridge professorship and eight books on WWII and the Cold War (Command of History), the author's thorough mastery of his subject is reflected in the fluency and assurance of the writing. As he explains, many summits have been vitiated by misplaced trust: at Munich in 1938, Chamberlain believed Hitler would keep his word on Czechoslovakia. In Reynolds's view, Kennedy and Khrushchev failed at Vienna in 1961 in nearly all respects, and their failure had consequences, including Khrushchev's belligerence—and ultimate humiliation—in the Cuban missile crisis. In 1985, Reagan and Gorbachev held what the author believes was the most successful summit of all, a result of careful preparation and the old-fashioned, behind-the-scenes diplomacy of George Shultz. The Camp David summit with Sadat, Carter and Begin, in this account, rivals Munich for sheer drama. The stories of these summits (plus the post-WWII Yalta conference and Nixon/Brezhnev in 1972) reveal the calculation, bluff, mutual incomprehension and good intentions that make meetings at the top risky and, occasionally, productive.

The figures are grouped into seven periods: The Barbarian Invasion, The Forming of the Germanic Nations, The Teutonic Invasions, The Rise of Nationalities, The Crusades, The Time of Progress and Discovery, and The Struggles of the Nations. In the tapestry which the author weaves may be traced the history of the rise and fall of the various nationalities and the circumstances and mode of life of each.
