Based on research in national and local archives and copious secondary literature, the study argues that, in the context of total war, physical violence became a predominant means of conceptualizing and expressing social-political demands as well as a means of demarcating various notions of community and belonging. The authors apply an interdisciplinary understanding of violence informed by sociological and psychological theories as well as by rigorous empirical historiographical approach. First, they examine the most severe kind of physical violence - murder - against the backdrop of shifting scientific and media discourses during the war and its immediate aftermath. Second, the authors use numerous cases of collective violence, ranging from less serious everyday conflicts to massive hunger demonstrations and riots, to unravel its ''language'', thus deciphering the ...

A Humument - Tom Phillips

The final edition of the late Tom Phillips’s ‘defining masterpiece of postmodernism’. In 1966 the artist Tom Phillips discovered A Human Document (1892), an obscure Victorian romance by W.H. Mallock, and set himself the task of altering every page, by painting, collage or cut-up techniques, to create an entirely new version. Some of Mallock’s original text remains intact and through the illustrated pages the character of Bill Toge, Phillips’s anti-hero, and his romantic plight emerges. First published in 1973, A Humument – as Phillips titled his altered book – quickly established itself as a cult classic. From that point, the artist worked towards a complete revision of his original, adding new pages in successive editions. That process is now finished. This final edition presents an entirely new and complete version of A Humument. It includes a revised Introduction by the late artist, in which he reflects on the 50-year project, and 92 new illustrated pages.

So the Armies of Good and Evil are massing, the four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world's last two remaining witchfinders are getting ready to Fight the Good Fight.

The Illustrated Good Omens - Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett

There is a hint of Armageddon in the air. According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (recorded, thankfully, in 1655, before she blew up her entire village and all its inhabitants, who had gathered to watch her burn), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact.So the Armies of Good and Evil are massing, the four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world's last two remaining witchfinders are getting ready to Fight the Good Fight. Atlantis is rising. Frogs are falling.Tempers are flaring, and everything appears to be going to Divine Plan. Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. They've lived amongst Humanity for millennia, and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle.So if Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they've got to find and kill the AntiChrist (which is a shame, really, as he's a nice kid). There's just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him. This edition features a new revised text, approved by Neil Gaiman and the Pratchett Estate, which clears up many ...

La Promesse du Bonheur - Tom Wesselmann

Published on the occasion of the exhibition Tom Wesselmann: La Promesse du Bonheur, curated by Chris Sharp with the scientific coordination of Cristiano Raimondi, held at Villa Paloma in Monaco June 29, 2018, through January 6, 2019, this catalogue is a critical overview of a key American Pop artist and an important opportunity to analyze specific aspects of his work: Victorian and post-Victorian sexuality, female agency, postwar economic abundance, beauty, the erotics of anticipation, the politics of the gaze, and strategies of indeterminacy. Every aspect of the book’s design, including its more than 170 color illustrations, is conceived to reflect on the artist’s haptic, indexical painterly approach and oversize scale system. Through Steven Marcus’s concept of “pornotopia” and the perspective of economy and abundance in postwar American society, the critical essay by Chris Sharp examines Wesselmann’s depictions of the sexual, developed formally in the works by means of hyperbole, hierarchies of elements, elision, and omission. The second critical essay by Sabrina Tarasoff leverages Julian Wasser’s iconic 1963 photograph Duchamp Playing Chess with a Nude, the 1969 “breast action” during one of Theodor W. Adorno’s classes, and more to deliberate the intentional in-betweenness in Wesselmann’s work, “interest” as a category preceding ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Forces of the Hanseatic League - Dr David Nicolle

A commercial and defensive federation of merchant guilds based in harbour towns along the North Sea and Baltic coasts, the Hanseatic League eventually dominated maritime trade in Northern Europe and spread its influence much further afield.The League was formed to protect the economic and political interests of member cities throughout a vast and complex trading network. During its 300 years of dominance the League’s large ships – called ‘cogs’ – were at the forefront of maritime technology, were early users of cannon, and were manned by strong fighting crews to defend them from pirates in both open-sea and river warfare. David Nicolle explores these approaches, as well as the fortifications and gunpowder weapons they invested in, to protect them from the sieges they were subjected to.Featuring specially commissioned artwork, this is first detailed, illustrated study in English of the fighting men, weapons and ships of the greatest mercantile and naval power of medieval northern Europe.

The Fall of English France 1449–53 - Dr David Nicolle

A highly illustrated account of the defeat of the English Kingdom in France at the battles of Formigny (1450) and Castillon (1453).Despite the great English victories at Crécy, Poitiers and Agincourt, the French eventually triumphed in the Hundred Years War. This book examines the last campaign of the war, covering the great battles at Formigny in 1450 and Castillon in 1453, both of which hold an interesting place in military history. The battle of Fornigny saw French cavalry defeat English archers in a reverse of those earlier English victories, while Castillon became the first great success for gunpowder artillery in fixed positions.Alongside battlescene maps and illustrations, David Nicolle explains how the seemingly unmartial King Charles VII of France all but drove the English into the sea, succeeding where so many of his predecessors had failed.
