        Witchcraft narratives in Germany

        Rothenburg, 1561–1652

        by Joseph Bergin, Alison Rowlands, Penny Roberts, William G. Naphy

        Looks at why witch-trials failed to gain momentum and escalate into 'witch-crazes' in certain parts of early modern Europe. Exames the rich legal records of the German city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a city which experienced a very restrained pattern of witch-trials and just one execution for witchcraft between 1561 and 1652. Explores the social and psychological conflicts that lay behind the making of accusations and confessions of witchcraft. Offers insights into other areas of early modern life, such as experiences of and beliefs about communal conflict, magic, motherhood, childhood and illness. Offers a critique of existing explanations for the gender bias of witch-trials, and a new explanation as to why most witches were women.

        The operation of the UK electoral system since 1945

        by Ron Johnston, Charles Pattie, Danny Dorling, David Rossiter

        The British electoral system treats parties disproportionately and differentially. This original study of the fourteen general elections held between 1950 and 1997 shows that the amount of bias in those election results increased substantially over the period, benefiting Labour at the expense of the Conservatives. Labour's advantage peaked at the 1997 general election when, even assuming there had been an equal share of the votes for the two parties, it would have won 82 more seats than its opponents. This situation came about because of different aspects of two well-known electoral abuses - malapportionment and gerrymandering. With the use of imaginative diagrams the book examines these processes in detail, illustrating how they operate and stresses the important role of tactical voting in the production of recent election results.

        Visible strangers

        Early modern urban identities, social visibility, and the Mediterranean paradigm

        by Filomena Viviana Tagliaferri

        Visible strangers is a collection of essays on the nature of cultural pluralism in the Mediterranean and the different ways in which this was managed in various cities during the early modern period. The book's nine chapters considers new case studies, where authors offer a diachronic view of the nature of the co-presence of minorities in different urban spaces, investigated through the lens of the fascinating relationship between visibility and identity. The considered case studies cover different areas of the Mediterranean space: the Adriatic, the Ottoman empire between Asia and Africa, the Italian and Iberian peninsulas, the island of Malta, at the centre of the Mare Nostrum and host to many of its influences. The analysis of the way cultural pluralism expressed itself wishes to overcome the bias induced by 'Mediterraneanism', that has led to the Mediterranean as an area of study hardening into a conceptual category.

        Pride and Prejudice

        Novel | Timeless classic in an elegant design with sprayed edges

        by Jane Austen

        Elizabeth Bennett and her four sisters are to be married off to men befitting their status. The handsome and wealthy Mr Darcy seems like he would make the perfect son-in-law and husband. But in a society where the marriage market is based less on feelings and more on status and wealth, love faces all kinds of obstacles ... Jane Austen is one of the most successful authors of all time. Ever since the publication of her first novel, Sense and Sensiblity, in 1811, she has captivated her readers, and to this day, her novels about the entanglements of love continue to inspire millions of people around the world.

        Wild for Austen

        A rebellious, subversive, and untamed Jane

        by Devoney Looser

        Publishing for Jane Austen's 250th birthday, this unmissable book offers an incisive and entertaining look at her life, writing, and legacy. You may have thought Jane Austen was a quiet spinster, but Devoney Looser puts that myth to rest. Tracing the author's life and legacy across 250 years, she reveals an Austen far wilder than the one we know. Looser takes a deep dive into Austen's work, offering fresh insights into her six completed novels, as well as her juvenilia, unfinished fiction, essays, and poetry. She also reveals new information about Austen's relationship to the abolitionist movement and women's suffrage. Examining the author's legacy, she turns up extraordinary stories about ghost-sightings, Austen novels used as evidence in court, and the eclectic members of the Austen family, whose own outrageous lives are wilder than fiction. Written with warmth and humour, and filled with remarkable details never before published, Wild for Austen is the ultimate tribute to one of the world's most beloved novelists.

        Adaptation revisited

        Television and the classic novel

        by Sarah Cardwell

        Offers a critical reappraisal of a prolific and popular genre, as well as bringing new material into the broader field of Television Studies. Surveys the traditional discourses about adaptation, unearthing the unspoken assumptions and common misconceptions that underlie them and explores the problems inherent in previous approaches, developing an original perspective that considers the particularly televisual nature of this genre. Examines four major British serials: 'Brideshead Revisited', 'Pride and Prejudice', 'Moll Flanders', and 'The Tenant of Wildfell Hall' revealing the genre's importance in constituting and moderating our understanding of the past and of television itself. The first sustained and coherent book on the subject in almost a decade.
