        by Erwin Mortier, Ira Wilhelm

        Joris wächst bei Onkel und Tante auf; sein Vater ist früh gestorben, die Mutter nach Spanien gezogen – viel mehr weiß Joris nicht über sie. In Stuyvenberghe, seinem Dorf, geht es beschaulich zu; der Kirchturm schaut seit Jahrhunderten schläfrig auf die Häuser herunter, und selbst das Schloß mit den hohen, dunklen Zypressen verfällt auf pittoreske Weise. Bis der Gemeinderat eines Sommers bekanntgibt, daß die Gräber auf dem Kirchhof wegen Umbauten verlegt werden müssen. Das heißt: auch das Grab von Joris’ Vater. Von dem hat Joris die allerschönste Vorstellung – und eine alte Keksdose mit wenigen Fotos, der Rest ist: unscharfe Erinnerung, Wunsch, Erfindung und die Geschichten der Verwandtschaft. Als Joris sich in diesem Sommer zum ersten Mal verliebt, wird das Unterscheiden von Erträumtem und Erlebtem, von Wunsch und Realität noch schwieriger. Erwin Mortier erzählt Joris’ Suche nach der eigenen Geschichte, der eigenen Identität mit einem feinen Ohr für Stimmungen und psychologische Details; beschreibt mit meisterhafter Eleganz, wie Joris seine Kindheit anhand von alten Fotos zu rekonstruieren versucht – und nach und nach die feinen Risse in den Bildern erkennt, die er sich von seinem Vater, dem Dorf und der Liebe gemacht hat.

        The IRA 1956–69

        Rethinking the Republic

        by Matt Treacy

        While there have been many books written about the IRA since 1916, comparatively little attention has been paid to the organisation during the 1960s, despite the fact that the internal divisions culminating in the 1969 split are often seen as key to the conflict which erupted that year. This book, newly available in paperback, redresses that vacuum and through an exhaustive survey of internal and official sources, as well as interviews with key IRA members, provides a unique and fascinating insight into radical Republican politics which will be of interest to those interested in Irish history and politics. The author looks at the root of the divisions which centred on conflicting attitudes within the IRA on armed struggle, electoral participation and socialism. He argues that while the IRA did not consciously plan the northern 'Troubles', the internal debate of the 1960s had implications for what happened in 1969.

        The republican line

        Caricature and French republican identity, 1830–52

        by Laura O'Brien, Maire Cross, David Hopkin

        The years between 1830 and 1852 were turbulent ones in French politics - but were also a golden age for French political caricature. Caricature was wielded as a political weapon, so much so that in 1835 the French politician Adolphe Thiers claimed that 'nothing was more dangerous' than graphic satire. This book is the first full study of French political caricature during the critical years of the July Monarchy (1830-48) and the Second Republic (1848-52). Focusing on the crucial question of republicanism, it shows how caricature was used - by both republicans and anti-republicans - to discuss, define and articulate notions of republican identity during this highly significant period in modern French and European history. ;

        Henry Neville and English Republican culture in the seventeenth century

        Dreaming of another game

        by Gaby Mahlberg, Peter Lake, Anthony Milton, Jason Peacey, Alexandra Gajda

        Henry Neville and English Republican Culture in the Seventeenth Century is the first full-length study of the republican Henry Neville as country gentleman, politician, political thinker, rebel and libeller. It traces the development of Neville's political thought from the English Civil Wars to the Exclusion Crisis and beyond, while also challenging the way in which the history of ideas has been conceptualised in recent years by discussing political theory alongside cheap libels, shams and poetry. While studies of early modern English republicanism tend to focus on the Interregnum, Neville's Plato redivivus, which promoted a restructuring of the political order, was only published after the 1660 Restoration of the monarchy. This study therefore draws attention to long-term continuities in English republican thought and introduces the concept of anti-patriarchalism to focus on what Neville and other republicans writing before 1649 or after 1660 had in common. This book will be of interest to students and academics of Early Modern studies ;
