Literary studies: classical, early & medievalNovember 2015Annotated Chaucer bibliography
1997–2010
by Mark Allen, Stephanie Amsel
Author of The Canterbury Tales and foundation of the English literary tradition, Geoffrey Chaucer has been popular with readers, writers and scholars for over 600 years. More than 4600 books, essays, poems, stories, recordings and websites pertaining to Chaucer were published between 1997 and 2010, and this bibliography identifies each of them separately, providing publication information and a descriptive summary of contents. The bibliography also offers several useful discovery aids to enable users to locate individual items of interest, whether it be a study of the Wife of Bath's love life, a video about Chaucer's language, advice on how to teach a particular poem by Chaucer, or a murder mystery that features Chaucer as detective. Useful for scholars, teachers and students alike, this volume is a must for academic libraries.

Botany & plant sciencesDecember 1997Pathology of Food and Pasture Legumes
by Edited by David J Allen, Jillian M Lenné
The plant family Leguminosae is second in economic importance only to Gramineae, which includes the world's cereals and pasture grasses. Indeed, about one quarter of the total output of crop protein in the world as a whole is derived from legumes, which are of great importance both in human diets and in the feeding of livestock. Production is nevertheless limited by major diseases, and therefore there is a great need for a reference book on the pathology of food and pasture legumes. This book fills that need and provides substantial critical reviews of each crop type. It is written by leading research workers from the USA, UK, India, Nigeria, Malawi, New Zealand, Syria and Uganda. The content is thus applicable to both the developed and the developing world, and to temperate and tropical zones. Well illustrated with both monochrome and colour plates, and thoroughly referenced to the research literature, it represents an indispensable volume for plant pathologists and legume agronomists.

Biology, life sciencesMarch 2015Pest Risk Modelling and Mapping for Invasive Alien Species
by Manuel Colunga-Garcia, Hazel Parry, Catherine Jarnevich, Roger Magarey, Darren Kriticos, Susan Worner, Christelle Robinet, Patrick Tobin, David Cook, Craig Allen, Richard Baker, Marla Downing, Rieks van Klinken, Frank Koch, Denys Yemshanov, Steven Venette. Edited by Robert C Venette.
Over the past century, the number of species that have been transported to areas outside their native range has increased steadily. New pests and pathogens place biological pressure on valuable resident species, but strict bans may conflict with trading and travel needs. An overview of how the conflict can be managed using pest risk mapping and modelling, this book uses worked examples to explain modelling and help development of tool kits for assessment.

March 2006Allen Gewalten zum Trutz sich erhalten
Gedichte und Bilder
by Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Hans-Joachim Simm
In Liedern auf die Liebe und die Freundschaft, in Hymnen auf das Unendliche und in Versen voller Einsicht und Weisheit hat Goethe das Leben bedichtet und besungen. Jede Gelegenheit konnte Anlaß sein für ein Gedicht, in freien Rhythmen oder in strengen Strophen, in Sonetten oder Epigrammen – Dichtung als Spiegel des Lebens und als Fluchtraum zugleich. Goethes Haltung zur Welt zeigen die in diesem Band versammelten Gedichte, ebenso wie seine Zeichnungen und Aquarelle. Im entschiedenen Eintreten für die Wahrheit und in ihrem Appell zur Selbstbestimmung sind sie heute noch genauso aktuell wie 1777, als die Verse für das Singspiel Lila entstanden: »Allen Gewalten / Zum Trutz sich erhalten, / Nimmer sich beugen, / Kräftig sich zeigen, / Rufet die Arme / Der Götter herbei!«

Literature & Literary StudiesOctober 2024The Legacy of John Polidori
The Romantic Vampire and its Progeny
by Sam George, Bill Hughes
John Polidori's novella The Vampyre (1819) is perhaps 'the most influential horror story of all time' (Frayling). Polidori's story transformed the shambling, mindless monster of folklore into a sophisticated, seductive aristocrat that stalked London society rather than being confined to the hinterlands of Eastern Europe. Polidori's Lord Ruthven was thus the ancestor of the vampire as we know it. This collection explores the genesis of Polidori's vampire. It then tracks his bloodsucking progeny across the centuries and maps his disquieting legacy. Texts discussed range from the Romantic period, including the fascinating and little-known The Black Vampyre (1819), through the melodramatic vampire theatricals in the 1820s, to contemporary vampire film, paranormal romance, and science fiction. They emphasise the background of colonial revolution and racial oppression in the early nineteenth century and the cultural shifts of postmodernity.
