        The reign of Richard II

        From minority to tyranny 1377–97

        by Alison McHardy

        The long-awaited prequel to Chronicles of the revolution covers the first twenty years (1377-97) of Richard II's reign. This richly-documented period offers exceptional opportunities and challenges to students, and the editor has selected material from a wide range of sources: well-known English chronicles, foreign chronicles and legal, administrative and financial records. These are arranged chronologically to form a coherent narrative of the reign. Clear and lively commentary and notes enable readers to make the fullest use of each document. The introduction describes the complex domestic and international situation which confronted the young king and offers guidance on the strengths and weaknesses of the reign's leading chronicles. The dramatic and diverse politics of the reign of Richard II make this the ideal special subject and an accessible, affordable, student-friendly documentary history of Richard II's reign has long been needed. This book is designed to fill that gap.

        US diplomacy and the Good Friday Agreement in post-conflict Northern Ireland

        by Richard Hargy

        Richard Haass and Mitchell Reiss, as autonomous diplomats in the George W. Bush State Department, were able to alter US intervention in Northern Ireland and play critical roles in the post-1998 peace process. Their contributions have not been fully appreciated or understood. The restoration of Northern Ireland's power-sharing government in 2007 was made possible by State Department-led intervention in the peace process. There are few references to Northern Ireland in work examining the foreign policy legacy of the George W. Bush presidency. Moreover, the ability to control US foreign policy towards the region brought one of George W. Bush's Northern Ireland special envoys into direct diplomatic conflict with the most senior actors inside the British government. This book will uncover the extent of this fall-out and provide original accounts on how diplomatic relations between these old allies became so fraught.

        Der Fall Wagner

        Der Fall Wagner

        Schriften-Aufzeichnungen-Briefe. Herausgegeben und mit einer Chronik sowie einem Nachwort versehen von Dieter Borchmeyer

        by Friedrich Nietzsche, Dieter Borchmeyer, Dieter Borchmeyer

        Friedrich Nietzsche wurde am 15. Oktober 1844 in Röcken bei Lützen als Sohn eines Pastors geboren. Er studierte in Bonn und Leipzig zunächst Sprachwissenschaften und evangelische Theologie, seinen Abschluß machte er jedoch nur in klassischer Philologie. 1868 lernte er Richard Wagner kennen, der sein Denken neben Schopenhauer stark beeinflußte. Einige Jahre später zerbrach die Freundschaft über Nietzsches Geringschätzung der Bayreuther Festspiele. 1869 wurde er auf eine Professur für Altphilologie nach Basel berufen, die er aus gesundheitlichen Gründen zehn Jahre später wieder aufgab. Fortan lebte er von seiner Pension und finanzierte davon viele Reisen, u.a. in die Schweiz und nach Italien, auf denen seine wichtigsten philosophischen Werke entstanden. In seinen Hauptwerken sagte Nietzsche den Tod Gottes voraus, beschrieb den Übermenschen, trat für die Umwertung aller Werte ein und prägte somit den Nihilismus. Zu seinen bekanntesten Werken zählen Also sprach Zarathustra (1883) und Ecce Homo (1908). In den 1880er Jahren nahmen seine körperlichen und seelischen Leiden zu und gipfelten 1889 in einem Zusammenbruch, von dem er sich nicht mehr erholte. Bis zu seinem Tod am 25. August 1900 in Weimar wurde er von seiner Mutter und seiner Schwester gepflegt. Dieter Borchmeyer, geboren 1941, ist Professor emeritus an der Universität Heidelberg, war Präsident der Bayerischen Akademie der Schönen Künste und lehrt im Rahmen der Stiftungsdozentur »Heidelberger Vorträge zur Kulturtheorie« weiterhin an der Universität Heidelberg.

        Richard Brome

        Place and politics on the Caroline stage

        by Matthew Steggle, Paul Edmondson, Martin White

        Richard Brome was the leading comic playwright of 1630s London. Starting his career as a manservant to Ben Jonson, he wrote a string of highly successful comedies which were influential in British theatre long after Brome's own playwriting career was cut short by the closure of the theatres in 1642. This book offers the first full-length chronological account of Brome's life and works, drawing on a wide range of recently rediscovered manuscript sources. It traces the early hostility to Brome from those who wrote him off as a mere servant; his continuing struggles with plague closures, contract disputes and theatrical takeover bids; and his literary relationships with Jonson, Shakespeare and others. Each of the surviving plays is discussed in relation to its social and political context, and its sense of place. A final chapter reviews Brome's enduring stageworthiness into the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and the most recent Brome revivals. ;

        Richard Lester

        by Neil Sinyard, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard

        Richard Lester is of the most significant yet misunderstood directors of the post-war era. Indelibly associated with the Beatles and the 'swinging Sixties' because of his direction of A Hard Day's Night and Help and his joyous sex comedy The Knack, Lester has tended to be categorised as a modish director whose heyday passed when that decade's optimism slid into disillusionment and violence. This book offers a critical appreciation and reappraisal of his work, arguing that it had much greater depth and variety than he has been given credit for. His versatility encompasses the Brechtian anti-heroics of How I Won the War; the surreal nuclear comedy of The Bed-Sitting Room and the swashbuckling adventure of The Musketeers films. He has even, in his instinctively iconoclastic manner, cut Superman down to size. The book should win new admirers for a director with a gift of making movies whose visual wit and imaginative imagery reveal an intelligent and enquiring scepticism about heroes and society. Including comments from Lester himself and illustrations from his own private collection, the book is a must for film scholars and enthusiasts alike. ;

        Richard Wainwright, the Liberals and Liberal Democrats

        Unfinished business

        by Frances Babbage, Matt Cole

        Richard Wainwright, the Liberals and Liberal Democrats: Unfinished Business now available in paperback, offers new research on familiar themes involving loyalties of politics, faith and locality. Richard Wainwright was a Liberal MP for seventeen years during the Party's recovery, but his life tells us about much more than this. Wainwright grew up in prosperity, but learned from voluntary work about poverty; he refused to fight in World War Two, but saw war at its cruellest; he joined the Liberal Party when most had given up on it, but gave his fortune to it; lost a by-election but caused the only Labour loss in Harold Wilson's landslide of 1966. He then played a key role in the fall of Jeremy Thorpe, the Lib-Lab Pact and the formation of the SDP-Liberal Alliance and the Liberal Democrats; he represented a unique Yorkshire constituency which reflected his pride and hope for society; and though he gave his life to the battle to be in the Commons, he refused a seat in the Lords. Richard Wainwright's story is central to the story of the Liberal Party and sheds light on the reasons for its survival and the state of its prospects. At the same time this book is a parable of politics for anyone who wants to represent an apparently lost cause, who wants to motivate people who have been neglected, and who wants to follow their convictions at the highest level. ;

        The works of Richard Edwards

        Politics, poetry and performance in sixteenth century England

        by Paul Edmondson, Rosalind King, Martin White

        The heart of this book is its fully annotated, critical editions of the surviving work of Richard Edwards, one of the most influential poets and dramatists writing in England before Shakespeare. Ros King's extensive introduction, identifying the holes in the documentary evidence that might accommodate this important but now little known writer, rewrites the history of pre-Shakespearean drama, illustrates new approaches to sixteenth-century prosody and to the modernisation of dramatic poetry, and re-evaluates the public role of theatre and poetry during a particularly turbulent period in English history. While it will be essential reading for specialist scholars, it will also be of much wider interest. The introduction is highly accessible which makes it an appropriate text-book for students in a field where few textbooks are available. It will appeal to the current appetite among the reading public for biography, while the play, poems and songs are themselves very appealing. ;

        Theatre and religion

        Lancastrian Shakespeare

        by Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Richard Wilson

        This important collection of essays focuses on the place of Roman Catholicism in early modern England, bringing new perspectives to bear on whether Shakespeare himself was Catholic. In the Introduction, Richard Wilson reviews the history of the debate over Shakespeare's religion, while Arthur Marotti and Peter Milward offer current perspectives on the subject. Eamon Duffy offers a historian's view of the nature of Elizabethan Catholicism, complemented by Frank Brownlow's study of Elizabeth's most brutal enforcer of religious policy, Richard Topcliffe. Two key Catholic controversialists are addressed by Donna Hamilton (Richard Vestegan) and Jean-Christophe Mayer (Robert Parsons). Robert Miola opens up the neglected field of Jesuit drama in the period, whilst Sonia Fielitz specifically proposes a new, Jesuit source-text for Timon of Athens. Carol Enos (As You Like It), Margaret Jones-Davies (Cymbeline), Gerard Kilroy (Hamlet) and Randall Martin (Henry VI 3) read individual plays in the light of these questions, while Gary Taylor's essay fittingly investigates the possible influence of religious conflicts on the publication of the Shakespeare First Folio. Theatre and religion: Lancastrian Shakespeare as a whole represents a major intervention in this fiercely contested current debate. ;

        Nietzsche, Cosima, Wagner

        Porträt einer Freundschaft

        by Dieter Borchmeyer

        An Pfingsten 1869 besucht Nietzsche Richard Wagner und Cosima von Bülow in deren Haus in Tribschen bei Luzern. Dies ist der Beginn einer innigen Freundschaft – und eine der kulturhistorisch bedeutsamsten Dreierkonstellationen. Zwischen den beiden Männern entwickelt sich fast eine Vater-Sohn-Beziehung, bis es 1878 zum Bruch kommt. Die Entzweiung mit Nietzsche ist die wohl tiefste menschliche Enttäuschung in Wagners Leben gewesen. Und auch Nietzsche, der die Tribschener Jahre immer wieder als die glücklichste Zeit seines Lebens bezeichnet hat, hat die Trennung von Wagner und Cosima nie verwunden. Dieter Borchmeyer entwirft ein lebendiges Porträt dieser epochalen Begegnung.

        Stolz auf unser Land

        Die amerikanische Linke und der Patriotismus

        by Richard Rorty, Hermann Vetter

        Richard Rorty (1931-2007) war einer der bedeutendsten angelsächsischen Philosophen seiner Generation. Er wurde in der Tradition der analytischen Philosophie ausgebildet, wandte sich aber Stück für Stück von dieser ab und entwickelte eine einflussreiche Spielart des Pragmatismus. Richard McKay Rorty wird am 4. Oktober 1931 in New York City geboren und kommt früh mit im weitesten Sinne linken und progressiven Ideen in Berührung. Im Alter von 14 Jahren beginnt er ein Philosophiestudium in Chicago, 1956 promoviert er an der Yale University. Von 1958 bis 1961 ist Rorty Assistant Professor am Wellesley College, danach hat er bis 1982 eine Professur für analytische Philosophie an der Princeton University inne. 1979 erscheint sein bekanntestes Werk, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature (dt. Der Spiegel der Natur), in dem er zahlreiche klassische Fragen der Philosophie einer scharfen Kritik unterzieht; zugleich wendet er sich verstärkt kulturellen und politischen Fragen zu. Als Konsequenz dieser Kehrtwende verlässt Rorty 1982 Princeton und geht als Kenan Professor of the Humanities an die University of Virginia, ab 1998 schließlich lehrt er Vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft an der Stanford University. Am 8. Juni 2007 stirbt Richard Rorty in Palo Alto, Kalifornien.

        The pastor in print

        Genre, audience, and religious change in early modern England

        by Amy G. Tan

        The pastor in print explores the phenomenon of early modern pastors who chose to become print authors, addressing ways authorship could enhance, limit or change clerical ministry and ways pastor-authors conceived of their work in parish and print. It identifies strategies through which pastor-authors established authorial identities, targeted different sorts of audiences and strategically selected genre and content as intentional parts of their clerical vocation. The first study to provide a book-length analysis of the phenomenon of early modern pastors writing for print, it uses a case study of prolific pastor-author Richard Bernard to offer a new lens through which to view religious change in this pivotal period. By bringing together questions of print, genre, religio-politics and theology, the book will interest scholars and postgraduate students in history, literature and theological studies, and its readability will appeal to undergraduates and non-specialists.

        In this now classic textbook, Richard Kearney surveys the work of nineteen of this century's most influential European thinkers, and acts as an introduction to three major movements: phenomenology, critical theory and structuralism. This edition includes a chapter devoted to Julia Kristeva, whose work in the fields of semiotics and psychoanalytic theory has made a significant contribution to recent continental thought. ;

        Die Struktur der Moderne

        Grundmuster und differentielle Gestaltung des institutionellen Aufbaus der modernen Gesellschaften

        by Richard Münch

        Die Moderne verstehen – dies ist ein prominentes Thema der Soziologie. Richard Münch versucht in seinem neuen Buch, durch die soziologische Analyse ihres institutionellen Aufbaus zu einem Verständnis der Grundstruktur und der Strukturprobleme der modernen Gesellschaften zu gelangen. Im Vordergrund der Analyse steht zunächst die gemeinsame institutionelle Tiefenstruktur moderner Gesellschaften. Diese generalisierende Betrachtung wird dann durch die Analyse ihrer unterschiedlichen institutionellen Oberflächenstruktur im inter- und intrakulturellen Vergleich konkretisiert.

        by Richard Saage

        »Die Politik Gorbatschows hat tiefgreifende Veränderungen in der Sowjetunion eingeleitet. Sie ermöglicht nicht nur radikale Reformen in Staat und Wirtschaft der osteuropäischen Länder; sie scheint auch die Grundlagen der kommunistischen Utopie nachdrücklich in Frage zu stellen. Angesichts der Krise des sozialistischen Projekts im Osten wie im Westen dürfte es angebracht sein, über die historische Dimension und die aktuelle Bedeutung der ihm zugrunde liegenden Utopie nachzudenken. Ebendies ist das Thema der in diesem Band enthaltenen Studien Richard Saages.«

        Arbeiterbewegung, Faschismus, Neokonservatismus

        by Richard Saage

        Anhand ausgewählter Beispiele zeigt Richard Saage die ideologischen, politischen und gesellschaftlichen Mechanismen auf, die seit dem Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges in großen Teilen Europas grundlegende Reformen zugunsten der lohnabhängigen Bevölkerung entweder verhindert haben oder rückgängig zu machen suchten. Im ersten Teil des Bandes werden Strukturprobleme der österreichischen und deutschen Arbeiterbewegung in der Zwischenkriegszeit thematisiert. Im zweiten Teil wird dokumentiert, wie das fortschrittliche Erbe der Aufklärung vom Faschismus negiert wurde. Im dritten Teil schließlich geht es um die Frage, mit welchen Strategien der bürgerliche Konservatismus nach 1945 in der Bundesrepublik den Emanzipations- und Demokratisierungsanspruch der Aufklärung zu neutralisieren suchte.
