Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2020Knowledge, mediation and empire
James Tod's journeys among the Rajputs
by Florence D'Souza, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie
This study of the British colonial administrator James Tod (1782-1835), who spent five years in north-western India (1818-22) collecting every conceivable type of material of historical or cultural interest on the Rajputs and the Gujaratis, gives special attention to his role as a mediator of knowledge about this little-known region of the British Empire in the early nineteenth century to British and European audiences. The book aims to illustrate that British officers did not spend all their time oppressing and inferiorising the indigenous peoples under their colonial authority, but also contributed to propagating cultural and scientific information about them, and that they did not react only negatively to the various types of human difference they encountered in the field.

Health & Personal DevelopmentLife Coach Yourself to Success
Put Yourself First To Be the One You Want to Be
by Barrie Pearson & Neil Thomas
Are you satisfied with the way your life is going – personally and financially? We often hear of people looking for an easy fix for their problems, but that’s rarely the answer. Perhaps, like many others, you too are busy spending your time thinking about and working for other people - so what about yourself? Are you spending any time thinking about and planning your own future? In this inspiring book, authors Neil Thomas and Barrie Pearson provide life-coaching techniques you can use to build a successful, fulfilling life for yourself. Unlike most coaching books, which are written by coaches themselves, Life-coach Yourself to Success has been written by two highly successful entrepreneurs who’ve actually followed and tested the advice they preach. This book is a tool to help you learn how to put yourself first for a change, how to understand your strengths and weaknesses and how to build a blue-print for success in life that you can turn into a reality. You are the business you have inherited. You can be the best business you will ever get to manage.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2017The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914
by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, Rob David
The Arctic region has been the subject of much popular writing. This book considers nineteenth-century representations of the Arctic, and draws upon an extensive range of evidence that will allow the 'widest connections' to emerge from a 'cross-disciplinary analysis' using different methodologies and subject matter. It positions the Arctic alongside more thoroughly investigated theatres of Victorian enterprise. In the nineteenth century, most images were in the form of paintings, travel narratives, lectures given by the explorers themselves and photographs. The book explores key themes in Arctic images which impacted on subsequent representations through text, painting and photography. For much of the nineteenth century, national and regional geographical societies promoted exploration, and rewarded heroic endeavor. The book discusses images of the Arctic which originated in the activities of the geographical societies. The Times provided very low-key reporting of Arctic expeditions, as evidenced by its coverage of the missions of Sir John Franklin and James Clark Ross. However, the illustrated weekly became one of the main sources of popular representations of the Arctic. The book looks at the exhibitions of Arctic peoples, Arctic exploration and Arctic fauna in Britain. Late nineteenth-century exhibitions which featured the Arctic were essentially nostalgic in tone. The Golliwogg's Polar Adventures, published in 1900, drew on adult representations of the Arctic and will have confirmed and reinforced children's perceptions of the region. Text books, board games and novels helped to keep the subject alive among the young.

August 1984Das Dubliner Tagebuch des Stanislaus Joyce
by Stanislaus Joyce, George Harris Healey, Arno Schmidt
Stanislaus Joyce hat Tagebücher hinterlassen, von denen einige, aus der Zeit vom Herbst 1903 bis zum April 1905, hier vorliegen. Sie ergänzen das uns aus »Meines Bruders Hüter« (st273) bekannte Bild der Familie Joyce und ihrer Freunde, geben ehrlichen, oft mürrischen, häufig haßerfüllten Einblick in deren elendes Alltagsleben und zeigen schon in diesen frühen Jahren die Mischung aus Bewunderung und Verachtung, die für das Verhältnis von Stanislaus zu James lebenslänglich entscheidend gewesen ist. James pflegte diese Aufzeichnungen zu lesen und hat sie bisweilen für seine Werke ebenso ausgenutzt wie Stanislaus später für sein Erinnerungsbuch. Niemand wird in diesen Tagebüchern so häufig erwähnt wie der Bruder James, und so enthalten sie wichtige Aufschlüsse über die Jahre, in denen dieser an »Kammermusik«, »Stephen der Held«, »Ein Porträt des Künstlers als junger Mann« arbeitete. Wieviel Wirklichkeit in die Werke von James eingegangen ist, wird erst sichtbar durch die zahlreichen Anmerkungen, die der Übersetzer Arno Schmidt für den deutschen Leser beigesteuert hat.

December 2001Die Formen des Religiösen in der Gegenwart
by Charles Taylor, Karin Wördemann, Charles Taylor
Ausgehend von William James' 1902 erschienener Untersuchung "Die Vielfalt religiöser Erfahrung" verfolgt Charles Taylor die Verschiebungen im Verhältnis von Religion, Individuum und Gesellschaft, von Spirituellem und Politischem bis in die Gegenwart. Der Rückzug des religiösen aus der öffentlichen Sphäre hat die Religion nicht ins Private eingeschlossen; vielmehr verbirgt sich hinter diesem Prozeß eine Kulturrevolution: Der moderne »expressive« Individualismus hat eine Vielfalt neuer Religionsformen und -gemeinschaften hervorgebracht, die auf die traditionellen Formen zurückwirkt und die Gesellschaft verändert. Der Ort der Religion muß neu bestimmt werden.

Literary studies: c 1500 to c 1800September 2007Authorship and authority: the writings of James VI and I
by Jane Rickard
James VI of Scotland and I of England participated in the burgeoning literary culture of the Renaissance, not only as a monarch and patron, but as an author in his own right, publishing extensively in a number of different genres over four decades. As the first monograph devoted to James as an author, this book offers a fresh perspective on his reigns in Scotland and England, and also on the inter-relationship of authorship and authority, literature and politics in the Renaissance. Beginning with the poetry he wrote in Scotland in the 1580s, it moves through a wide range of his writings, including scriptural exegeses, political, social and theological treatises and printed speeches, concluding with his manuscript poetry of the early 1620s. The book combines extensive primary research into the preparation, material form and circulation of these varied writings, with theoretically informed consideration of the relationship between authors, texts and readers. The discussion thus explores James's responses to, and interventions in, a range of literary, political and religious debates, and reveals the development of his aims and concerns as an author.

September 2019Conga Line on the Amazon
by David Myles Robinson
David Myles Robinson was eight years old when he first got hooked on travel. Since then, he’s seen most of the world—all its continents plus, he laments, “far too many places where travel is now off-limits.”After a lifetime of visiting near and far, in heat and in cold, in comfort and in danger, Robinson has put it all together now in this unique collection of the varied travel adventures he’s found—and the lessons he’s learned from them. A Fellini-esque view of the Amazon, a Mercedes caravan to Istanbul, Jane Goodall's amazing chimps—just part of a travel trunk full of experiences guaranteed to keep you seesawing from “Boy, I'd love to do that" to “Sure glad it was him, not me.”In Conga Line on the Amazon, Robinson brings to his first travel book the same gift for intriguing narrative and sharp characterization that has won praise for his six highly successful novels. Some of his tales may be for the strong of heart, but they’re all for the reader with a yen to be entertained by one intrepid man’s adventures and misadventures exploring the strange and wonderful world we live in.
