        ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF THE PEOPLES OF CHINA

        by ZHANG Haiyang, Paul Richardson

        Encyclopaedia of the Peoples of China is a global project undertaken by Yilin Press and the UK publisher Greene Media. This beautifully illustrated book presents a panorama of life styles, customs, traditions and cultures of the 56 ethnic groups of China, interwoven with the history of how they came to be a great nation. The book combines the wisdom and efforts of many experts of England and China, including Prof. ZHANG Haiyang of Minzu University in China and Prof. Paul Richardson of Oxford Brookes University in the UK. This is a project sponsored by the Chinese Government, with the mission of comprehensively introducing some of the most fundamental elements of Chinese history and culture to readers both in and outside China. It is also hoped that the book will help more western readers better understand China. For this purpose, the structure and layout of the book are tailored for western readership. It strives to present the rich and colorful nature of Chinese culture in a smooth and easy to understand fashion. The ultimate goal is to contribute to world peace and mutual understanding among the nations in this age of globalization.

        The debate on the English Revolution

        by R Richardson, Roger Richardson

        The debate on the English Revolution is firmly established as an essential guide to the literature in its field and appears here in a much revised third edition. Three new chapters are included on twentieth-century historians' treatments of social complexities, politics, political culture and revisionism, and on the Revolution's unstoppable reverberations. All the other chapters have been amended and recast to take account of recent publications. The book provides a searching re-examination of why the English Revolution remains such a provocatively controversial subject and analyses the different ways in which historians over the last three centuries have tried to explain its causes, course and consequences. Claredon, Hume, Macaulay, Gardiner, Tawney, Hill, and the present-day revisionists are given extended treatment, while discussion of the work of numerous other historians is integrated into a coherent, informative readable survey. ;

        The debate on the Norman Conquest

        by Marjorie Chibnall, Roger Richardson

        The debate on the Norman Conquest is still ongoing. Because of the great interest that has always been shown in the subject of conquest and its aftermath, interpretations have been numerous and conflicting; students bewildered by controversies may find this book a useful guide through the morass of literature. In the medieval period writers were still deeply involved in the legal and linguistic consequences of the Norman victory. Later the issues became direcly relevant to debates about constitutional rights; the theory of a "Norman yoke" provided first a call for revolution and, by the 19th century, a romantic vision of a lost Saxon paradise. When history became a subject for academic study controversies still raged round such subjects as Saxon versus Norman institutions. These have gradually been replaced in a broader social setting where there is more room for consensus. Interest has now moved to such subjects as peoples and races, frontier societies, women's studies and colonialism. Changing perspectives have shown the advantage of studying a period from the late 10th to the early 13th century rather than one beginning in 1066. ;
