Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2024Sexual politics in revolutionary England
by Sam Fullerton
Sexual politics in revolutionary England recounts a dramatic transformation in English sexual polemic that unfolded during the kingdom's mid-seventeenth-century civil wars. In early Stuart England, explicit sexual language was largely confined to manuscript and oral forms by the combined regulatory pressures of ecclesiastical press licensing and powerful cultural notions of civility and decorum. During the early 1640s, however, graphic sex-talk exploded into polemical print for the first time in English history. Over the next two decades, sexual politics evolved into a vital component of public discourse, as contemporaries utilized sexual satire to reframe the English Revolution as a battle between licentious Stuart tyrants and their lecherous puritan enemies. By the time that Charles II regained the throne in 1660, this book argues, sex was already a routine element of English political culture.

FictionJuly 2015Born To Be Evil
by James Marsh
Adversity gives rise to opportunity. Albert Littlejohn and his black market gang operate in the town of Southampton during World War Two. Dockers by day but gangsters by night, these men take full advantage of the darkness of the blackout conditions to burgle and steal whatever they need to ply their illicit trade. Marked by hard case characters like George (the cosh) Harcourt and the equally dangerous Salty Sam the Bournemouth knifeman, this story builds to an inevitable and explosive climax in the New Forest on VE day. Albert Littlejohn and his boys have to stay one jump ahead of the law and their rival gangs from Swaythling and Bournemouth.
