A literary master’s entertaining guide to reading with deeper insight, better understanding and greater pleasure Terry Eagleton. Photograph © Eamonn McCabe.

How to Read Literature Terry Eagleton What makes a work of literature good or bad? How freely can the reader interpret it? Could a nursery rhyme like Baa Baa Black Sheep be full of concealed loathing, resentment and aggression? In this accessible, delightfully entertaining book, Terry Eagleton addresses these intriguing questions and a host of others. How to Read Literature is the book of choice for students new to the study of literature and for all other readers interested in deepening their understanding and enriching their reading experience. In a series of brilliant analyses, Eagleton shows how to read with due attention to tone, rhythm, texture, syntax, allusion, ambiguity and other formal aspects of literary works. He also examines broader questions of character, plot, narrative, the creative imagination, the meaning of fictionality, and the tension between what works of literature say and what they show. Unfailingly authoritative and cheerfully opinionated, the author provides useful commentaries on Classicism, Romanticism, Modernism and Postmodernism along with spellbinding insights into a huge range of authors, from Shakespeare Terry Eagleton is Distinguished and Jane Austen to Samuel Beckett and J. K. Rowling. Professor of English Literature, University of Lancaster, and Excellence in English Distinguished Visitor, University of Notre Dame. He is the author of more than 40 books.

A respected economist warns that Western societies’ expectations for the future are about to collide with reality Protest during the G20 summit, London, April 2009 (Alamy Images).

When the Money Runs Out The End of Western Affluence Stephen D. King The Western world has experienced extraordinary economic progress throughout the last six decades, a prosperous period so extended that continuous economic growth has come to seem normal. But such an era of constantly rising living standards is an historical anomaly, economist Stephen D. King warns, and the current stagnation of Western economies threatens to reach crisis proportions in the not-so-distant future. Praised for the ‘dose of realism’ he provided in the much-praised Losing Control, King follows up in this volume with a plain-spoken assessment of where the West stands today. It’s not just the end of an age of affluence, he shows. We have made promises to ourselves that are only achievable through ongoing economic expansion. The future benefits we expect – pensions, healthcare and social security, for example – may be larger than tomorrow’s resources. And if we reach that point, which promises will be broken and who will lose out? Drawing on historical Stephen D. King is Group Chief parallels from the French Revolution to the disastrous 1931 austerity Economist and Global Head of budget, King demonstrates the links between economic stagnation and Economics and Asset Allocation political and social upheaval, asking whether the West has the courage research at HSBC.

What could prevent China surpassing the United States and becoming the world’s superpower?

Red flags and the Monument to the People’s Heroes, Tiananmen Square. Frederic J. Brown/AFP/Getty Images.

Stumbling Giant The Threats to China’s Future Timothy Beardson While dozens of recent books and articles have predicted the near- certainty of China’s rise to global supremacy, this book boldly counters such widely-held assumptions. Timothy Beardson brings to light the daunting array of challenges that today confront China, as well as the inadequacy of leaders’ responses. Threats to China come from many fronts, Beardson shows, and by their number and sheer weight these problems will thwart the nation’s ambition to take over as the world’s ‘No. 1 power’. Drawing on extensive research and experience living and working in Asia over the last 35 years, the author spells out the details of China’s situation: an inexorable demographic future of remorseless aging, extreme gender disparity, a shrinking labour force and even a falling population. Also, the nation faces social instability, a devastated environment, a low-tech economy with inadequate innovation, the absence of an effective welfare safety-net, an ossified governance structure and radical Islam lurking at the borders. Beardson’s nuanced, first-hand look at China acknowledges its historic achievements while tempering predictions of its imminent hegemony with a no-nonsense dose of reality. Timothy Beardson founded and ran Crosby International Holdings, the largest investment bank in the Far East. Since the late 1990s he has been a frequent speaker on political, economic, environmental and May strategic issues at such forums as the World Economic Forum at Davos 512 pp. 234x156mm. and at prominent universities.

Hardhitting analysis of the cost – both financial and human – of Britain’s involvement in the Afghanistan war British soldiers marking unexploded ordnance for future disposal, Helmand province (Alamy Images).

Investment in Blood The True Cost of Britain’s Afghan War Frank Ledwidge In this follow-up to the extremely successful Losing Small Wars, Frank Ledwidge analyses the cost – both financial and human – of Britain’s involvement in the Afghanistan war. With the aid of interviews, on-the- ground research and countless Freedom of Information requests, he pieces together the enormous burden the Afghan intervention has placed on the shoulders of British soldiers and their families, UK taxpayers and – by far the greatest sufferers – Afghan civilians. Amongst other issues, he highlights the soldiers left horribly maimed, UK funds poured into the corrupt Afghan government, refugees driven out of Helmand province into disease-ridden camps and the long-term damage to the international reputation of the UK military. Ledwidge argues that the only true beneficiaries of the conflict are development consultants, Afghan drugs kingpins and international arms companies. This is both an extraordinary piece of investigative journalism and a heart-breaking account of military adventurism gone horribly wrong. A former Naval reserve military intelligence officer, Frank Ledwidge served on front-line operations in the Balkan wars and Iraq. In civilian life he practised as a criminal barrister for eight years before specialising in international development and human rights law. He has since worked as a civilian advisor all over the world, including in Afghanistan June and Libya. 304 pp. 234x156mm.

The essential history of Anglo-Saxon England, brought completely up-to- date with new discoveries and interpretations Replica of the Sutton Hoo helmet.

The Anglo-Saxon World Nicholas J. Higham and Martin J. Ryan The Anglo-Saxon period, stretching from the fifth to the late eleventh century, begins with the Roman retreat from the Western world and ends with the Norman takeover of England. Between these epochal events, many of the contours and patterns of English life that would endure for the next millennium were shaped. In this authoritative work, Nicholas Higham and Martin Ryan reexamine Anglo-Saxon England in the light of new research in disciplines as wide-ranging as historical genetics, paleobotany, archaeology, literary studies, art history and numismatics. The result is the definitive introduction to the Anglo-Saxon world, enhanced with a rich array of photographs, maps, genealogies and other illustrations. The Anglo-Saxon period witnessed the birth of the English people, the establishment of Christianity and the development of the English language. With an extraordinary cast of characters (Alfred the Great, the Venerable Bede, King Cnut), a long list of artistic and cultural achievements (Beowulf, the Sutton Hoo ship-burial finds, the Bayeux Tapestry) and multiple dramatic events (the Viking invasions, the Battle of Hastings), the Anglo-Saxon era lays legitimate claim to having been one of the most important in Western history.

Restless Valley Revolution, Murder and Intrigue in the Heart of Central Asia Philip Shishkin It sounds like the stuff of a fiction thriller: two revolutions, a massacre of unarmed civilians, a civil war, a drug-smuggling highway, brazen corruption schemes, contract hits and larger-than-life characters who may be villains – or heroes – or possibly both. Yet this book is not a work of fiction. It is instead a gripping, first-hand account of Central Asia’s unfolding history from 2005 to the present. Philip Shishkin, a prize-winning journalist with extensive on-the- ground experience in the tumultuous region above Afghanistan’s northern border, focuses mainly on Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. Both nations have struggled with the enormous challenges of post-Soviet independent statehood; both became entangled in America’s Afghan campaign when US military bases were established within their borders. At the same time, the region was developing into a key smuggling hub for Afghanistan’s booming heroin trade. Through the eyes of local participants – the powerful and the powerless – Shishkin reconstructs how Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan have ricocheted between extreme repression and democratic strivings, how alliances with the US and Russia have brought mixed blessings and how Stalin’s legacy of ethnic gerrymandering incites conflict even now.

A lively, informed account of Putin’s years of rule and the impending crisis that threatens his tsar-like regime

‘Day of Anger’ protest against Putin’s government, Moscow, September 2010 (Alamy Images).

Fragile Empire How Russia Fell In and Out of Love with Vladimir Putin Ben Judah From Kaliningrad on the Baltic to the Russian Far East, journalist Ben Judah has travelled throughout Russia and the former Soviet republics, conducting extensive interviews with President Vladimir Putin’s friends, foes and colleagues, government officials, business tycoons, mobsters and ordinary Russian citizens. Fragile Empire is the fruit of Judah’s thorough research: a probing assessment of Putin’s rise to power and what it has meant for Russia and her people. Despite a propaganda programme intent on maintaining the cliché of stability, Putin’s regime was suddenly confronted in December 2011 by a highly public protest movement that told a different side of the story. Judah argues that Putinism has brought economic growth to Russia but also weaker institutions, a contradiction that leads to dangerous instability. The author explores both Putin’s successes and his failed promises, taking into account the impact of a new middle class and a new generation, the Internet, social activism and globalisation, on the impending crisis facing Russia and its people. Ben Judah is Russia and Central Asia Fellow at the European Council of Foreign Relations.

8 General Interest Christians, Muslims and Jesus Mona Siddiqui Prophet or messiah, the figure of Jesus serves as both the bridge and the barrier between Christianity and Islam. In this accessible and thoughtful book, Muslim scholar and popular commentator Mona Siddiqui takes her reader on a personal, theological journey exploring the centrality of Jesus in Christian–Muslim relations. Christian and Muslim scholars have used Jesus and Christological themes for polemical and dialogical conversations from the earliest days to modern times. The author concludes with her own reflections on the cross and its possible meaning in her Muslim faith. Through a careful analysis of selected works by major Christian and Muslim theologians during the formative, medieval and modern periods of both religions, Siddiqui focuses on themes including revelation, prophecy, salvation, redemption, sin, eschatology, law and love. How did some doctrines become the defining characteristics of one faith and not the other? What is the nature of the theological chasm between Christianity and Islam? With a nuanced and carefully considered analysis of critical doctrines the author provides a refreshingly honest counterpoint to contemporary polemical arguments and makes a compelling contribution to reasoned interfaith conversation.

Isaac and Isaiah The Covert Punishment of a Cold War Heretic David Caute Rancorous and highly public disagreements between Isaiah Berlin and Isaac Deutscher escalated to the point of cruel betrayal in the mid-1960s, yet surprisingly the details of the episode have escaped historians’ scrutiny. In this gripping account of the ideological clash between two of the most influential scholars of Cold War politics, David Caute uncovers a hidden story of passionate beliefs, unresolved antagonism and the high cost of reprisal to both victim and perpetrator. Though Deutscher (1907–67) and Berlin (1909–97) had much in common – each arrived in England in flight from totalitarian violence, quickly mastered English and found entry into the Anglo-American intellectual world of the 1950s – Berlin became one of the presiding voices of Anglo-American liberalism, while Deutscher remained faithful to his Leninist heritage, resolutely defending Soviet conduct despite his rejection of Stalin’s tyranny. Caute combines vivid biographical detail with an acute analysis of the issues that divided these two icons of Cold War politics, and brings to light for the first time the full severity of Berlin’s action against Deutscher.

The dramatic life of the Marquess of Queensberry, nemesis of Oscar Wilde and creator of the famous ‘Rules’

Above left: Marquess of Queensberry cabinet card.

The Marquess of Queensberry Wilde’s Nemesis Linda Stratmann The Marquess of Queensberry is perhaps as famous for destroying one of our greatest literary geniuses as he was for helping establish the rules for modern-day boxing. The trial and two-year imprisonment of Oscar Wilde, following a series of events inspired by Wilde’s romantic interest in Queensberry’s son, remains one of history’s great tragedies. However, Linda Stratmann’s riveting biography of the marquess, also known as John Sholto Douglas, paints a far more complex picture by drawing on new sources and unpublished letters. In his forties, Douglas was altered by a series of setbacks. The events of the Wilde affair – told for the first time from the marquess’s perspective – were directly linked to them. Through the retelling of pivotal events from Douglas’s life, including the death of his brother on the Matterhorn, his fruitless search for him and the suicide of his father, the book reveals a well-meaning man often stricken with a grief he found hard to express, who deserves our compassion. Linda Stratmann is the author of eleven books including Chloroform: The Quest for Oblivion, Notorious Blasted Rascal and Greater London Murders.

Earthmasters The Dawn of the Age of Climate Engineering Clive Hamilton This book goes to the heart of the unfolding reality of the 21st century: international efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have all failed and before the end of the century Earth is projected to be warmer than it has been for 15 million years. The question, ‘can the crisis be avoided?’ has been superseded by a more frightening one, ‘what can be done to prevent the devastation of the living world?’ And the disturbing answer, now under wide discussion both within and outside the scientific community, is to seize control of the very climate of Earth itself. Clive Hamilton begins by exploring the range of technologies now being developed in the field of geoengineering – the intentional, enduring, large-scale manipulation of Earth’s climate system. He lays out the arguments for and against climate engineering, and reveals the extent of vested interests linking researchers, venture capitalists and corporations. He examines what it means for human beings to be making plans to control the planet’s atmosphere, probes the uneasiness we feel with the notion of exercising technological mastery over nature, and challenges the ways we think about ourselves and our place in the natural world.

As a style, punk is about chaos, anarchy and rebellion. Drawing on provocative sexual and political imagery, punks made fashion overtly hostile and threatening.

Since the word ‘dandy’ came into vogue in London in 1813, it has at times been used to describe someone superficial, flamboyant and self-indulgent.

The Mechanical Smile traces the history of the earliest fashion shows in France and the United States from their origins in the 1880s to 1929, situating them in the context of modernism and the rationalisation of the body.

The first single-volume history of Reformed Protestantism from its 16th-century origins to the present Stained glass window, Rundle Memorial United Church.

Calvinism A History D. G. Hart This briskly-told history of Reformed Protestantism takes these churches through their entire 500-year history – from 16th-century Zurich and Geneva to modern locations as far-flung as Seoul and Sao Paulo. D. G. Hart explores specifically the social and political developments that enabled Calvinism to establish a global presence. Hart’s approach features significant episodes in the institutional history of Calvinism that are responsible for its contemporary profile. He traces the political and religious circumstances that first created space for Reformed churches in Europe and later contributed to Calvinism’s expansion around the world. He discusses the effects of the American and French Revolutions on ecclesiastical establishments as well as 19th- and 20th-century communions, particularly in Scotland, the Netherlands, the United States and Germany, that directly challenged church dependence on the state. Raising important questions about secularisation, religious freedom, privatisation of faith and the place of religion in public life, this book will appeal not only to readers with interests in the history of religion but also in the role of religion in political and social life today. D. G. Hart is visiting professor of history, Hillsdale College, and former director of the Institute for the Study of American Evangelicals, Wheaton College. He is author of more than a dozen previous books, including most recently From Billy Graham to Sarah Palin. May 352 pp. 234x156mm. 20 b/w illus.

General Interest 17 Thomas Aquinas A Portrait Denys Turner Leaving so few traces of himself behind, Thomas Aquinas seems to defy the efforts of the biographer. Highly visible as a public teacher, preacher and theologian, he nevertheless has remained nearly invisible as man and saint. What can be discovered about this man, his mind and his soul? In this short, compelling portrait, Denys Turner clears away the haze of time and brings Thomas vividly to life for contemporary readers – those unfamiliar with the saint as well as those well acquainted with his teachings. Building on the best biographical scholarship available today and reading Thomas’ texts with piercing acuity, Turner seeks the point at which the man, the mind and the soul of Thomas Aquinas intersect. Reflecting upon Thomas, a man of Christian Trinitarian faith yet one whose thought is grounded firmly in the body’s interaction with the material world, a thinker at once confident in the powers of human reason and a man of prayer, Turner provides a more detailed human portrait than ever before of one of the most influential philosophers and theologians in all of Western thought.

Gandhi A Spiritual Biography Arvind Sharma In his Autobiography, Gandhi wrote, ‘What I want to achieve – what I have been striving and pining to achieve these thirty years – is self- realisation, to see God face to face ... All that I do by way of speaking and writing, and all my ventures in the political field, are directed to this same end’. While hundreds of biographies and histories have been written about Gandhi (1869–1948), nearly all of them have focused on the political, social or familial dimensions of his life. Very few, in recounting how Gandhi led his country to political freedom, have viewed his struggle primarily as a search for spiritual liberation. Shifting the focus to the understudied subject of Gandhi’s spiritual life, Arvind Sharma retells the story of Gandhi’s life through this lens. Illuminating unsuspected dimensions of Gandhi’s inner world and uncovering their surprising connections with his outward actions, Sharma explores the eclectic religious atmosphere in which Gandhi was raised, his belief in reincarnation, his conviction that morality and religion are synonymous, his attitudes toward tyranny and freedom, and, perhaps most important, the mysterious source of his power to establish new norms of human conduct. This book enlarges our understanding of one of history’s most profoundly influential figures, a man whose trust in the power of the soul helped liberate millions. May 256 pp. 210x140mm.

The story of Northern Ireland’s Troubles – and their complex aftermath

Members of the Real IRA attending 1916 Easter Rising commemoration in Derry, Northern Ireland, April 2010 (Alamy Images).

Northern Ireland The Reluctant Peace Feargal Cochrane In this thoughtful and engaging book, Feargal Cochrane looks at Northern Ireland’s ‘Troubles’ from the late 1960s to the present day. He explains why, a decade and a half after the peace process ended in political agreement in 1998, sectarian attitudes and violence continue to plague Northern Ireland today. Former members of the IRA now sit alongside their unionist adversaries in the Northern Ireland Assembly, but the region’s attitudes have been slow to change and recent years have even seen an upsurge in violence on both sides. In this book, Cochrane, who grew up a Catholic in Belfast in the ’70s and ’80s, explores how divisions between Catholics and Protestants became so entrenched during the thirty years of political violence in Northern Ireland – which killed over 3,500 people – leading up to the peace agreement. Cochrane asks whether the peace process has actually delivered for the citizens of Northern Ireland, and what more needs to be done to enhance the current reluctant peace. Feargal Cochrane is professor of international conflict analysis and director of the Conflict Analysis Research Centre at the University of Kent. He is the author of several previous books on Ireland.

Men from the Ministry How Britain Saved Its Heritage An entirely new – and personal – look at heritage Simon Thurley in Britain in the 20th century Between 1900 and 1950 the British state amassed a huge collection of over 800 historic buildings, monuments and historic sites and opened them to the public. It was an enterprise without precedent. Governments elsewhere had of course assembled collections of paintings, sculptures and books. But Britain created what was effectively an outdoor museum of national history, overseen by a range of voluntary bodies including the Council for the Protection of Rural England, the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings and the National Trust.

A fascinating, wide-ranging survey of the history of possession and exorcism through the ages

St Eligius performing an exorcism. Art Resource.

The Devil Within Possession and Exorcism in the Christian West Brian L. Levack In the 16th and 17th centuries, the era of the Reformation, thousands of Europeans were thought to be possessed by demons. In response to their horrifying symptoms – violent convulsions, displays of preternatural strength, vomiting of foreign objects, displaying contempt for sacred objects and others – exorcists were summoned to expel the evil spirits from victims’ bodies. This compelling book focuses on possession and exorcism in the Reformation period, but also reaches back to the 15th century and forward to our own times. Entire convents of nuns in French and Spanish towns, 30 boys in an Amsterdam orphanage, a small group of young girls in Salem, Massachusetts – these are among the instances of demon possession in the United States and throughout Europe that Brian Lavack closely examines, taking into account the diverse interpretations of generations of theologians, biblical scholars, pastors, physicians, anthropologists, psychiatrists and historians. Challenging the commonly-held belief that possession signals physical or mental illness, the author argues that demoniacs and exorcists – consciously or not – are following scripts encoded in their various religious cultures, and their performances can only be understood in those contexts.

How the greatest change of the modern era revolutionised ordinary lives

William Pickett after P. J. de Loutherbourg, Iron Works, Colebrook Dale, 1805.

Liberty’s Dawn A People’s History of the Industrial Revolution Emma Griffin This remarkable book looks at hundreds of autobiographies penned between 1760 and 1900 to offer an intimate first-hand account of how the Industrial Revolution was experienced by the working class. The Industrial Revolution brought not simply misery and poverty. On the contrary, Griffin shows how it raised incomes, improved literacy and offered exciting opportunities for political action. For many, this was a period of new, and much valued, sexual and cultural freedom. This rich personal account focuses on the social impact of the Industrial Revolution, rather than its economic and political histories. In the tradition of best-selling books by Liza Picard, Judith Flanders and Jerry White, Griffin gets under the skin of the period and illuminates a cast of colourful characters, including factory workers, miners, shoemakers, carpenters, servants and farm labourers. Emma Griffin is senior lecturer in history at the University of East Anglia and an expert on the social and economic history of Britain from 1700 to 1870. She is a frequent contributor to BBC Radio 3’s Night Waves and the author of three previous books, including A Short History of the British Industrial Revolution and Blood Sport: A History of Hunting in Britain.

22 General Interest Democracy in Retreat The Revolt of the Middle Class and the Worldwide Decline of Representative Government Joshua Kurlantzick Since the end of the Cold War, the assumption among most political theorists has been that as nations develop economically, they will also become more democratic – especially if a vibrant middle class takes root. This assumption underlies the expansion of the European Union and much of American foreign policy, bolstered by such examples as South Korea, the Philippines, Taiwan and even to some extent Russia. Where democratisation has failed or retreated, aberrant conditions take the blame: Islamism, authoritarian Chinese influence or perhaps the rise of local autocrats. But what if the failures of democracy are not exceptions? In this thought-provoking study of democratisation, Joshua Kurlantzick proposes that the spate of retreating democracies, one after another over the past two decades, is not just a series of exceptions. Instead, it A Council on Foreign Relations Book reflects a new and disturbing trend: democracy in worldwide decline.

The Electronic Silk Road How the Web Binds the World Together in Commerce Anupam Chander On the ancient Silk Road, treasure-laden caravans made their arduous way through deserts and mountain passes, establishing trade between Asia and the civilisations of Europe and the Mediterranean. Today’s electronic Silk Roads ferry information across continents, enabling individuals and corporations anywhere to provide or receive services without obtaining a visa. But the legal infrastructure for such trade is yet rudimentary and uncertain. If an event in cyberspace occurs at once everywhere and nowhere, what law applies? How can consumers be protected when engaging with companies across the world? In this accessible book, cyber-law expert Anupam Chander provides the first thorough discussion of the law that relates to global Internet commerce. Addressing up-to-the-minute examples, such as Google’s struggles with China, the Pirate Bay’s skirmishes with Hollywood and the outsourcing of services to India, the author insightfully analyses the difficulties of regulating Internet trade.

This timely book provides a gripping account of the realities of power politics among European states and between their leaders. Drawing on long experience working behind the scenes, Luuk van Middelaar captures the dynamics and tensions shaping the European Union from its origins until today. It is a story of unexpected events and twists of fate, bold vision and sheer necessity, told from the perspective of the key players – from De Gaulle to Havel, Thatcher to Merkel. Van Middelaar cuts through the institutional complexity by exploring the unforeseen outcome of decisive moments and focusing on the quest for public legitimacy. As a first-hand witness to the day-to-day actions and decisions of Europe’s leaders, the author provides a vivid narrative of the crises and compromises that united a continent. By revisiting the past, he sheds fresh light on the present state of European unification and offers insights into what the future may hold.

Mutiny and Its Bounty Leadership Lessons from the Age of Discovery Patrick J. Murphy and Ray W. Coye Violent mutiny was common in seafaring enterprises during the Age of Discovery – so common in fact, that dealing with mutineers was an essential skill for captains and other leaders of the time. Mutinies in today’s organisations are much quieter, more social and intellectual and far less violent, yet the coordinated defiance of authority springs from dissatisfactions very similar to those of long-ago shipboard crews. This highly original book mines the seafaring logs and other archives of great 15th- and 16th-century ship captains and discovers instructive lessons for today’s leaders facing challenges to their authority as well as for other members of organisations in which mutinous events occur. The book begins by examining mutinies against great explorer captains of the Age of Discovery: Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan, Sebastian Cabot and Henry Hudson. The authors then identify lessons that entrepreneurs, leaders and other members may apply to organisational insurrections today. They find, surprisingly, that mutiny may be a force for good in an organisation, paving the way to more collaborative leadership and stronger commitment to shared goals and values. Patrick J.

The life story of the ancient and majestic ginkgo tree, from the age of dinosaurs to the 21st century

Ginkgo The Tree That Time Forgot Peter Crane • Foreword by Peter Raven Perhaps the world’s most distinctive tree, ginkgo has remained stubbornly unchanged for more than two hundred million years. A living link to the age of dinosaurs, it survived the great ice ages as a relic in China, but it earned its reprieve when people first found it useful about a thousand years ago. Today ginkgo is beloved for the elegance of its leaves, prized for its edible nuts and revered for its longevity. This engaging book tells the full and fascinating story of a tree that people saved from extinction – a story that offers hope for other botanical biographies that are still being written. Inspired by the historic ginkgo that has thrived in London’s Kew Gardens since the 1760s, renowned botanist Peter Crane explores the evolutionary history of the species from its mysterious origin through its proliferation, drastic decline and ultimate resurgence. Crane also highlights the cultural and social significance of the ginkgo: its medicinal and nutritional uses, its power as a source of artistic and religious inspiration and its importance as one of the world’s most popular street trees. Readers of this extraordinarily interesting book will be drawn to the nearest ginkgo, where they can experience firsthand the timeless beauty of the oldest tree on Earth. Sir Peter Crane is Carl W.

General Interest 25 Franz Kafka The Poet of Shame and Guilt Saul Friedländer Franz Kafka was the poet of his own disorder. Throughout his life he struggled with a pervasive sense of shame and guilt that left traces in his daily existence – in his many letters, extensive diaries and especially in his fiction. This stimulating book investigates some of the sources of Kafka’s personal anguish and its complex reflections in his imaginary world. In this biography, Saul Friedländer probes major aspects of Kafka’s life (family, Judaism, love and sex, writing, illness and despair) that until now have been skewed by posthumous censorship. Contrary to Kafka’s dying request that all his papers be burned, Max Brod, Kafka’s closest friend and literary editor, published and edited the author’s novels and other works soon after his death in 1924. Friedländer shows that, when reinserted in Kafka’s works, deleted segments lift the mask of ‘sainthood’ frequently attached to the writer and thus restore previously hidden aspects of his individuality.

Forbidden Music The Jewish Composers Banned by the Nazis Michael Haas With National Socialism’s arrival in Germany in 1933, Jews dominated music more than virtually any other sector, making it the most important cultural front in the Nazi fight for German identity. This groundbreaking book looks at the Jewish composers and musicians banned by the Third Reich and the consequences for music throughout the rest of the 20th century. Because Jewish musicians and composers were, by 1933, the principal conveyors of Germany’s historic traditions and the ideals of German culture, the isolation, exile and persecution of Jewish musicians by the Nazis became an act of musical self-mutilation. Michael Haas looks at the actual contribution of Jewish composers in Germany and Austria before 1933, at their increasingly precarious position in Nazi Europe, their forced emigration before and during the war, their ambivalent relationships with their countries of refuge, such as Britain and the United States and their contributions within the radically changed post-war music environment.

History 29 Livingstone Revised and Expanded Edition Tim Jeal David Livingstone (1813–73) is revered as one of history’s greatest explorers and missionaries, the first European to cross Africa, and the first to find Victoria Falls and the source of the Congo River. In this exciting new edition, Jeal draws on fresh sources and archival discoveries to provide the most fully rounded portrait of this complicated man – dogged by failure throughout his life despite his full share of success. Using Livingstone’s original field notebooks, Jeal finds that the explorer’s problems with his African followers were far graver than previously understood. From recently discovered letters he elaborates on Livingstone’s decision to send his wife Mary back home to England. He also uncovers fascinating information about Livingstone’s importance to the British Empire and about his relationship with the journalist-adventurer Henry Morton Stanley. In addition Jeal here evokes the full pathos of the explorer’s final journey.

Solomon’s Secret Arts The Occult in the Age of Enlightenment Paul Kleber Monod The late 17th and 18th centuries are known as the Age of Enlightenment, a time of science and reason. But in this illuminating book, Paul Kleber Monod reveals the surprising extent to which Newton, Boyle, Locke and other giants of rational thought and empiricism also embraced the spiritual, the magical and the occult. Although public acceptance of occult and magical practices waxed and waned during this period they survived underground, experiencing a considerable revival in the mid-18th century with the rise of new anti- establishment religious denominations. The occult spilled over into politics with the radicalism of the French Revolution and into literature in early Romanticism. Even when official disapproval was at its strongest, the evidence points to a growing audience for occult publications as well as to subversive popular enthusiasm. Ultimately, finds Monod, the occult was not discarded in favour of ‘reason’ but was incorporated into new forms of learning. In that sense, the occult is part of the modern world, not simply a relic of an unenlightened past, April and is still with us today. 412 pp. 234x156mm. 24 b/w illus.

30 History The Huguenots Geoffrey Treasure Following the Reformation, a growing number of radical Protestants came together to live and worship in Catholic France. The Huguenots survived persecution and armed conflict to win freedom of worship, civil rights and unique status as a protected minority. In 1685, following renewed persecution, the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes abolished their remaining rights. Choosing faith over home, over 200,000 Huguenots fled across Europe and, soon, further afield. In this magnificent book, Geoffrey Treasure explores what it was like to be a Huguenot through their rise, survival and fall, from power politics to religious practice and the psychological pressures of living in a threatened ‘state within a state’. Over a span of a century and a half he weaves together political and religious concerns, those of statesmen, feudal magnates and leading figures of the Catholic revival, a Catherine de Medici seeking compromise, a Louis XIV requiring unity, with the stories of ordinary citizens leading extraordinary lives. Treasure describes the Huguenots’ disciplined community, inspiring in faith and courage and rich in achievement, and illuminates their place within Protestantism and European history. Viewing their exodus as a crucial turning point for Europe, Treasure points to the immense significance of the Huguenot story for all their homelands. April 384 pp. 234x156mm. 16 b/w illus.

History 31 Return from the Natives How Margaret Mead Won the Second World War and Lost the Cold War Peter Mandler Celebrated anthropologist Margaret Mead, who studied sex in Samoa and child-rearing in New Guinea in the 1920s and ’30s, was determined as the Second World War approached to show that anthropology could help sum up the national character of the most complex, modern societies and produce better wartime strategies. This fascinating book follows her and her closest collaborators – her lover and mentor Ruth Benedict, her third husband Gregory Bateson, and her would-be fourth husband, Geoffrey Gorer – to their triumphant climax when Mead was chosen to be one of the principal cultural ambassadors from America to Britain in 1943. Part intellectual biography, part cultural history and part history of the human sciences, Peter Mandler’s book is a reminder that the Second World War and the Cold War were a clash of cultures, not just ideologies; examines how far intellectuals should involve themselves in politics; and speaks to modern-day concerns, such as the United States’ relationships with Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran.

Collection Cartier, Geneva. Edwardian Opulence British Art at the Dawn of the Twentieth Century Angus Trumble and Andrea Wolk Rager With contributions by A. Cassandra Albinson, Tim Barringer, Pamela Fletcher, Imogen Hart, Elizabeth C. Mansfield and Alexander Nemerov Views of the Edwardian era have swung between seeing the period as a golden summer afternoon of imperial and elite complacency and the starkly conflicting depiction of the decade as one of intense political, economic and artistic instability leading up to the chasm of the First World War. This magnificent book explores themes of power and a contrasting lightness of touch through the distinctive architecture, interiors and decorative and fine arts of the time. Creation, consumption and display are enlightened through portraits by Sargent and Boldoni, diamond tiaras and ostrich feather fans and a spectacular embroidered gown belonging to Mary, the American-born wife of Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India. At the same time, the Lumiere brothers’ invention of autochromes enabled informal colour portrait photography that fostered the cult of celebrity. Opulence and leisure were driving forces for the domestic and imperial British economic engine in the early years of the 20th century.

34 Art Vermeer and Music The Art of Love and Leisure Marjorie E. Wieseman Johannes Vermeer (1632–1675) is one of the world’s most captivating artists. Renowned for his sublimely beautiful depictions of everyday Dutch life, Vermeer created exquisite paintings that are sought out by any art lover. Music was a key facet of 17th-century Dutch life, both in public and private. Of Vermeer’s 36 surviving paintings twelve depict musical themes or a musical instrument. These include the magnificent pictures by Vermeer: Young Woman Standing at a Virginal; Young Woman Seated at a Virginal; The Music Lesson; and The Guitar Player, all featured in this book. The book also includes paintings by Vermeer’s contemporaries, such as Gerard ter Borch (1617–1681), Gabriel Metsu (1629–1667) and Jan Steen (c. 1626–1679). Vermeer and Music provides new insight into the Exhibition cultural significance of these images.

Frederic Church And the Landscape Oil Sketch Andrew Wilton • With contributions by Christopher Riopelle The Gallery National • London and Katherine Bourguignon The American painter Frederic Church (1826–1900) rose to fame as a member of the Hudson River School, which inaugurated the great tradition of American landscape painting. He was also a leading proponent of the landscape oil sketch made rapidly out-of-doors, in front of the subject. Such informal and spontaneous works often served as preparatory studies for large-scale paintings, and played a vital role in landscape practice and pedagogy in both Europe and America from the mid-19th century to around 1900. This book features some thirty sketches Church made in the United States, Jamaica, Europe and the Near East over the course of his career.

36 Art Hopper Drawing Carter E. Foster Edward Hopper (1882–1967) is recognised as one of the most well-known American artists of the 20th century. His distinctive style, combining subtle observations of the world with his imagination, has not only influenced other artists but also photographers, filmmakers and popular culture. Although Hopper is primarily known for his oil paintings, including such iconic works as Nighthawks (1942) and Early Sunday Morning (1930), this important publication is the first comprehensive exploration of his drawings and working methods. In 1967, Hopper’s widow, Josephine Nivison Hopper, bequeathed her husband’s artistic estate to the Whitney Museum of American Art, including a fascinating collection of more than 2,000 drawings spanning his entire career. This group of works has never been the subject of in-depth study and many have never been reproduced before. Hopper Exhibition kept these drawings for personal reference as he revisited various themes Whitney Museum of American Art, throughout his career.

Foster also argues that Hopper was, in many ways, a traditional Walker Art Center, draftsman who methodically developed schematic ideas into detailed 15/03/14 – 22/06/14 studies to refine content. However, the steps toward this refinement are unique to Hopper and reveal how he turned the mundane into poetic images with universal appeal. June Carter E.

My Dear Mr. Hopper Edited by Elizabeth Thompson Colleary Edward Hopper (1882–1967), long recognised as the premier 20th-century American realist painter, was famously introverted and reclusive. He rarely spoke about his personal life, and his close friends were few and love interests fewer. Until now, there have been only two known romantic pursuits prior to Hopper’s marriage to Josephine Nivison: a brief relationship in Paris with an English girl and another spanning several years with an older French woman in New York in 1914. The discovery of fifty-eight previously unknown letters and one note from Alta Hilsdale (1884–1948) to Hopper brings to light a previously unknown, possibly one-sided romantic relationship. Hilsdale, who was from Minnesota and spent time in New York and Paris, sent letters to Hopper at various home and studio addresses over the course of ten years. Reverend Arthayer Sanborn, a close friend of Edward and Josephine Hopper, discovered the letters in Hopper’s childhood home in Nyack, New York, after the artist’s death. Fewer than ten people have had the opportunity to read these letters, and they are published in their entirety for the first time in My Dear Mr. Hopper.

Hotel Texas An Art Exhibition for the President and Mrs. John F. Kennedy Essays by Olivier Meslay, Scott Grant Barker, David Lubin and Alexander Nemerov • Illustrated chronology by Nicola Longford The events associated with John F. Kennedy’s death are etched into American national memory. This fascinating book tells a less familiar part of the story, about a special art exhibition organised by a group of Fort Worth citizens. On November 21, 1963, the Kennedys arrived in Fort Worth around midnight, making their way to Suite 850 of the Hotel Texas. There, installed in their honour, was an intimate exhibition that included works by Monet, Van Gogh, Marin, Eakins, Feininger and Picasso. Due to the late hour, it was not until the following morning that the couple viewed the exhibition and phoned one of the principal organisers, Ruth Carter Johnson, to offer thanks. Mrs. Kennedy Exhibition indicated that she wished she could stay longer to admire the beautiful Dallas Museum of Art, works. The couple was due to depart for Dallas, and the rest is history. 26/05/13 – 15/09/13 Amon Carter Museum of American Art, This volume reunites the works in this exhibition for the first time and 12/10/13 – 12/01/14 features some previously unpublished images of the hotel room.

Art 39 Experiments in Modern Realism World Making in Postwar European and American Art Alex Potts This major study offers a new understanding of the aesthetics and politics of postwar European and American art. Questioning the widespread assumption that the most innovative practices were non- representational, it shows how a powerful realist impulse operated alongside a strong commitment to abstraction. Alex Potts makes the case that the ambition to create work that engaged with the everyday and political realities of the world motivated much of the period’s vital experimentation with medium and artistic process. Experiments in Modern Realism is a refreshingly unorthodox account of the artistic and political impulses shaping the diverse practices that emerged in mid-20th century art. The wide variety of canonical and lesser-known work it features ranges from free-form paintings by Dubuffet and De Kooning and assemblages by Rauschenberg and Fahlström to actions and happenings by Beuys and Kaprow. Engaging the fields of history, literature, politics, cultural theory and art history, this book is a remarkably probing analysis of postwar art from one of the most important voices in art history today. Alex Potts is collegiate professor, history of art, at the University of June Michigan. 320 pp. 256x192mm. 60 colour + 120 b/w illus. HB ISBN 978-0-300-18768-7 £35.00*

40 Art Common Ground German Photographic Cultures across the Iron Curtain Sarah E. James This ambitious publication is the first book thoroughly to evaluate the photography that emerged during Germany’s geopolitical division from the 1950s to the 1980s. With richly illustrated and exhaustively researched analyses of photographic projects from East and West Germany, including exhibitions, photo-essays, private archives and photo-books, Common Ground constructs a comparative perspective, examining how sequence, seriality and repetition were mobilised to produce forms of solidarity and political agency. Author Sarah James places German postwar photography in the context of Soviet, American and European photographic developments; the specific cultural experiences of the Cold War; and the shifting politics of German identity. By reconsidering the relationship between divergent cultures of the pre-war Weimar period and the Cold War era, Common Ground prompts new readings of major figures such as Bernd and Hilla Becher, Karl Blossfeldt and August Sander, as well as historically neglected figures such as Karl Pawek, Evelyn Richter and Rudolf Shäfer. The result is a groundbreaking study of the political and pedagogical functions of documentary photography. April Sarah E.

Paula Modersohn-Becker The First Modern Woman Artist Diane Radycki Considered one of the most important of the early German modernists, the painter Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876–1907) challenged traditional representations of the female body in art. She was the first modern woman artist to paint herself nude, as well as mothers and children nude. She also created the first self-portrait while pregnant in the history of art. Modersohn-Becker painted the life she was living as a woman and artist and led the way for generations of women artists. Tragically, her life and career were cut short at age thirty-one, following complications from childbirth. Diane Radycki examines the artist’s fascinating biography, including her friendships with poet Rainer Maria Rilke and sculptor Clara Westhoff; her personal anguish, including years in an unconsummated marriage, a disappointing affair and irresolution about motherhood. Radycki also details the genres of Modersohn-Becker’s work: figure (especially nudes), still life and landscape; and the reception of her work following her death. As the first English-language publication on the artist in over two decades, this book is the authoritative source on Modersohn- Becker, who Radycki convincingly portrays as the first significant woman artist in the history of modernism.

Art 41 What Art Is Arthur C. Danto What is it to be a work of art? Renowned author and critic Arthur C. Danto addresses this fundamental, complex question. Part philosophical monograph and part memoiristic meditation, What Art Is challenges the popular interpretation that art is an indefinable concept, instead bringing to light the properties that constitute universal meaning. Danto argues that despite varied approaches, a work of art is always defined by two essential criteria: meaning and embodiment, as well as one additional criterion contributed by the viewer: interpretation. Danto crafts his argument in an accessible manner that engages with both philosophy and art across genres and eras, beginning with Plato’s definition of art in The Republic, and continuing through the progress of art as a series of discoveries, including such innovations as perspective, chiaroscuro and physiognomy. Danto concludes with a fascinating discussion of Andy Warhol’s famous shipping cartons, which are visually indistinguishable from the everyday objects they represent. Throughout, Danto considers the contributions of philosophers including Descartes, Kant and Hegel, and artists from and Poussin to Duchamp and Warhol in this far-reaching examination of the interconnectivity and universality of aesthetic production.

42 Art Paris 1650–1900 Decorative Arts in the Rijksmuseum Reinier Baarsen From 1650 to 1900 Paris was the undisputed centre of fashion and taste in Europe. Home to a unique concentration of artists, designers, patrons, critics and a keen buying public, Paris was the city where trends were made and where novel types of objects, devised for new ways of life, were invented. This book traces the wonderful story of Parisian decorative arts from the reign of Louis XIV to the triumph of art nouveau, through a selection of 150 breathtaking, and often little-known, masterpieces from the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. It features an exhilarating mixture of furniture, gilt bronze, tapestries, silver, watches, snuff-boxes, jewellery, Sèvres porcelain and other ceramics, as well as some design drawings and engravings. Specially taken photographs reveal the daring design and beautiful execution of the work of some of the greatest artists and craftsmen of their time. Reinier Baarsen discusses the history and significance of each object, presenting the findings of much new research. Reinier Baarsen is Senior Curator of Furniture at the Rijksmuseum.

Salvaging the Past Georges Hoentschel and French Decorative Arts at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1907–2013 Daniëlle Kisluk-Grosheide, Deborah L. Krohn and Ulrich Leben Georges Hoentschel (1855–1915) was a leading French interior designer in historic styles, head of a decorating firm and ceramicist during the Belle Epoque. He found inspiration for his designs in Medieval and 18th-century French art, which he avidly collected amassing more than 4000 pieces of furniture, woodwork, metalwork, sculpture, paintings and textiles. After visiting Hoentschel in Paris, the American financier J. Pierpont Morgan acquired the collection and bequeathed it to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1906 and 1916–17. These works greatly enriched the museum’s medieval art department and became the nucleus of its decorative arts department, profoundly influencing American tastes in the early 20th century.

Ham House Four Hundred Years of Collecting and Patronage Christopher Rowell Built in 1610 during the reign of James I and remodelled in 1637–9 by the future first Earl of Dysart, Ham House and its gardens have endured through centuries of English history while remaining representative of the styles and culture of the original inhabitants. It is one of the few places where Caroline décor – as developed by British architect Inigo Jones and familiar to Peter Paul Rubens and Anthony van Dyck – can still be appreciated. To mark the 400th anniversary of one of the most famous houses in Europe, eighteen internationally recognised scholars join National Trust curators in documenting the history of Ham House and its collections. The new discoveries, reattributions and revelations of the contributors are accompanied by specially commissioned photography of the house and its contents. An appendix includes complete transcriptions of house inventories for the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, published here for the first time. Christopher Rowell is the National Trust’s furniture curator and was formerly curator responsible for Ham House.

Art 45 South Ulster: Armagh, Cavan and Monaghan The Buildings of Ireland Kevin Mulligan The South Ulster volume of the Buildings of Ireland covers the inland counties of Cavan, Monaghan and Armagh, an area stretching from the thinly populated uplands around the Cuilcagh Mountains and the cradle of the Shannon to the fertile Blackwater Valley and the southern shores of Lough Neagh. The architecture of the region is as varied as the landscapes that receive it, with building materials adding to the variety while ensuring that the buildings express a deep sense of belonging. The city of Armagh, set in orchard country, is the major settlement, a Georgian town built on ancient foundations, and the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland, celebrated in two proud cathedrals. Carrickmacross and Bailieborough typify the Irish market town with its lively architectural contrasts. Churches range from the Gothic Revival displays at Bessbrook and Butler’s Bridge, to the vernacular halls of Derryvalley and Carsan. Among country houses, the Early Georgian brick Bellamont Forest and Ballyhaise introduced the Palladian revival to Ireland. St Peter’s Church, Laragh, a roadside Gothic fairytale in corrugated iron, is as memorable a landmark as the august Rokeby Pevsner Architectural Guides obelisk in Armagh.

Sussex: East with Brighton and Hove The Buildings of England Nicholas Antram The East Sussex volume of The Buildings of England covers an area ranging from the High Weald in the north of the county to the massive ridge of the South Downs and the resort towns and ancient ports of the coast. Its coastal resorts are particularly distinguished, none more so than Brighton and Hove, where John Nash’s oriental Pavilion for the Prince Regent sets the tone. Elsewhere castles at Camber, Bodiam and fortified town walls at Rye and Winchelsea attest to its military past and Battle Abbey to its medieval endowments. The towns and villages are especially rich in timber-framed, brick and tile houses for which the county is famous. The 20th century makes its mark in the exhilarating De La Warr Pavilion at Bexhill, and the uncompromising forms of the 1960s University of Sussex campus. Nicholas Antram is co-author of the Brighton and Hove City Guide in the Pevsner series (Yale, 2008) and was formerly on the staff of English Heritage.

48 Art Distinguished Images Prints and the Visual Economy in Nineteenth-century France Stephen Bann This multifaceted book reviews the vast range of types of printmaking that flourished in France during the 19th century. Studies of this period’s printmaking tend to be confined to histories of individual processes, such as lithography or steel engraving. This study surveys the field as a whole and discusses the relationships between the various media in the context of an overall ‘visual economy’. Lithography, etching and engraving are all examined through new research on noteworthy artists of the period, including Hyacinthe Aubry-Lecomte, Léopold Flameng, Ferdinand Gaillard, Aimé de Lemud, Nadar and Charles Waltner. Rather than simply tracing the rise of Modernism in the 19th century, Distinguished Images reconstitutes the period’s cultural milieu through a series of case studies written with an eye to overarching forces at play. The result is the most original analysis of printmaking to appear in many years – a striking new account of a system in which printmaking, printmakers and art May critics played heretofore unrecognised or misunderstood roles. 224 pp. 256x192mm. 10 colour + 95 b/w illus.

Art 49 Interaction of Color 50th Anniversary Edition Josef Albers • Foreword by Nicholas Fox Weber Josef Albers’s Interaction of Color is a masterwork in art education. Conceived as a handbook and teaching aid for artists, instructors and students, this influential book presents Albers’s singular explanation of complex colour theory principles. Originally published by Yale University Press in 1963 as a limited silkscreen edition with 150 colour plates, Interaction of Color first appeared in paperback in 1971, featuring ten colour studies, and has remained in print ever since. With over a quarter of a million copies sold in its various editions since 1963, Interaction of Color remains an essential resource on colour. This new edition presents a significantly expanded selection of close to sixty colour studies alongside Albers’s original text, demonstrating such principles as colour relativity, intensity and temperature; vibrating and vanishing boundaries; and the illusion of transparency and reversed grounds. A celebration of the longevity and unique authority of Albers’s contribution, this landmark edition will find new audiences in studios and classrooms around the world. Josef Albers was a member of the Bauhaus group in Germany during the 1920s. In 1933 he came to the United States, where he taught at Black Mountain College for sixteen years. In 1950 he joined the faculty at Yale University as chairman of the department of design. Albers was elected to the National Institute of Arts and Letters in 1968 and was professor emeritus of art at Yale until his death in 1976. Nicholas Fox Weber is executive director of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation.

Alice Aycock Drawings Jonathan Fineberg • With an introduction by Terrie Sultan Alice Aycock (b. 1946) emerged onto the New York art scene in the 1970s and is best known for her large-scale public sculptures that often combine an industrial appearance with references to weightlessness as well as to science and cosmology. Aycock also has embraced the practice of drawing throughout her enormously productive career. Alice Aycock: Drawings is the first exploration of her spectacular drawings, which include elements of mirage, fantasy and science, and evoke both abstract thinking and bodily sensation. The works on paper featured in this handsome volume highlight the major themes that have governed her artistic practice: the role of architecture as a founding point of reference; the importance of mechanics and structure; and references to nature. As author Jonathan Fineberg demonstrates, Aycock is an artist who thinks on paper. Her works are often equal parts engineering plan and science fiction imagining. Visualising such contradictions allows us to, in her words, transport ourselves ‘farther into another place’.

50 Art Irony; or, The Self-Critical Opacity of Postmodern Architecture Emmanuel Petit In this fascinating reassessment of postmodern architecture at the end of the 20th century, Emmanuel Petit addresses the role of irony and finds a vitality and depth of dialectics largely ignored by historical critiques. A look at five individual architects – Peter Eisenman (b. 1932), Arata Isozaki (b. 1931), Rem Koolhaas (b. 1944), Stanley Tigerman (b. 1930) and Robert Venturi (b. 1925) – reveals the beginning of a phenomenology of irony in architecture. As Petit explains, irony is manifested in the work of these architects as an aesthetic tool, as existential comedy and as cultural satire. Petit frames his discussion between the destruction of two utopian structures by architect Minoru Yamasaki (1912–1986): the demolition of the Pruitt-Igoe housing complex in St. Louis in 1972 and the collapse of the World Trade Center in 2001. Meticulously researched and drawing widely from philosophy and literary criticism, Petit crafts a compelling case for the role of irony during a period when architects struggled to come to terms with significant contradictions within cultural modernity. Emmanuel Petit is associate professor at the Yale School of Architecture. He is editor of Philip Johnson: The Constancy of Change.

Building Seagram Phyllis Lambert • With a foreword by Barry Bergdoll The Seagram Building rises up over New York’s Park Avenue with perfect lines of bronze and glass. Considered one of the greatest icons of 20th-century architecture, the building was commissioned by Samuel Bronfman, founder of the Canadian distillery dynasty Seagram. Bronfman’s daughter, Phyllis Lambert, was twenty-seven years old when she took over the search for an architect and chose Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969), a pioneering master of modern ‘skin and bones’ architecture. Mies, who designed the building clad in bronze and amber-tinted glass along with Philip Johnson (1906–2005), emphasised the beauty of structure and fine materials and set the building back from the avenue, creating the building’s plaza as an urban oasis. Lambert’s choice established her role as a leading architectural patron and singlehandedly changed the face of American urban architecture. Building Seagram is a comprehensive personal and scholarly history of the Seagram Building and its architectural, cultural and urban legacies. Lambert makes use of previously unpublished personal archives, company correspondence and photographs to tell an insider’s view of the debates, resolutions and unknown dramas of the building’s construction, as well as its crucial role in the history of modern art and architectural patronage. Phyllis Lambert is founding director of the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal. A licensed architect, she has contributed essays to numerous books and is the subject of the 2007 documentary film Citizen Lambert: Joan of Architecture. Barry Bergdoll is professor of architectural history in the department of art history and archaeology at Columbia University and the Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Richard Diebenkorn The Berkeley Years, 1953–1966 Timothy Anglin Burgard and Steven A. Nash • With Contributions by Emma Acker In the 1950s American painter Richard Diebenkorn (1922–1993) took a dramatic turn away from his early work, exploring new vocabularies of both abstract and representational styles, which would come to be known as the artist’s ‘Berkeley period’. This era has long been recognised as one of the most interesting chapters in postwar American art, yielding many of Diebenkorn’s best-known works. Richard Diebenkorn: The Berkeley Years, 1953–1966 examines Diebenkorn’s process and output during this decisive period. Three original essays explore the artist’s evolving conceptions of abstraction and representation, emphasising the interrelationships between the abstract paintings and drawings and related landscapes, figurative works and still lifes, as well as Diebenkorn’s ongoing interest in aerial views.

Art 51 James Stirling Revisionary Modernist Amanda Reeser Lawrence James Stirling was one of the most influential architects of the late 20th century. His formally inventive yet historically informed designs inspired a generation of architects in his native England and throughout the world. James Stirling: Revisionary Modernist is the first in-depth, book- length analysis of the architect’s work. Amanda Reeser Lawrence focuses on six of Stirling’s projects from the early 1950s through the late 1970s, offering detailed formal analysis of the buildings and drawings while also mapping his relationship to a broader architectural and cultural context. Though it is widely held that Stirling took a mid-career turn towards postmodernism, Lawrence shows that he was undeniably modern throughout his career. She clarifies the ways in which Stirling understood modernism as inextricably linked to the past and placed his own work in what he termed a ‘dialogue with architectural tradition’. ‘Strikingly original. Amanda Lawrence’s detailed analysis of Stirling’s buildings and drawings allows readers to follow the architect’s design strategies and understand how he employed diverse means to embody them. I have never read such a compelling and persuasive assessment of a 20th-century architect’s work. An exemplary study and a model for future studies.’ – Diane Ghirardo, University of Southern California February 248 pp. 254x178mm.

Building Inside Studio Gang Architects Edited by Jeanne Gang and Zoë Ryan One of the foremost architects working today, Jeanne Gang is widely recognised for her innovative and independent practice. Studio Gang Architects confronts pressing contemporary issues and seeks to answer questions that exist locally but resound globally through architecture. The firm’s work is exemplified by recent projects such as the Aqua Tower in Chicago, an 82-storey mixed-use high-rise, which critic Paul Goldberger described as, ‘Reclaiming the notion that thrilling and beautiful form can still emerge out of the realm of the practical’. With the studio poised to contribute a new set of buildings to the global skyline, Building: Inside Studio Gang Architects, examines its most current work, twelve built and unbuilt projects that address four major Exhibition issues facing contemporary architecture: its relationship to nature, the Art Institute of Chicago, development of dense urban areas, the integration of the ideas of 24/09/12 – 24/02/13 community members, and architecture and performance.

52 Art Pliny and the Artistic Culture of the Italian Renaissance The Legacy of the ‘Natural History’ Sarah Blake McHam Pliny’s Natural History (A.D. 77–79) served as an indispensable guide to and exemplar of the ideals of art for Renaissance artists, patrons and theorists. Bearing the imprimatur of antiquity, the Natural History gave permission to do art on a grand scale, to value it, and to see it as an incomparable source of prestige and pleasure. In this magisterial book Sarah Blake McHam surveys Pliny’s influence, from Petrarch, the first figure to recognise Pliny’s relevance to understanding the history of Greek art and its reception by the Romans, to Vasari and late 16th-century theorists. McHam charts the historiography of Latin and Italian manuscripts and early printed copies of the Natural History to trace the dissemination of its contents to artists from Donatello and Ghiberti to Michelangelo and Titian. Meanwhile, benefactors commissioned works intended to emulate the prototypes Pliny described, aligning themselves with the great patrons of antiquity. This is a richly illustrated, comprehensive reference work of social history, myth making, iconography, theory and criticism. Sarah Blake McHam is professor of art history at Rutgers University.

Roman Fever Influence, Infection and the Image of Rome, 1700–1870 Richard Wrigley During the 18th and 19th centuries, artists and travellers were lured to Rome, the home of civilised values and artistic beauty. But the history of visiting Rome had a pathological side – not only crisis and disorientation but repulsion at its filth and stink. Crucially Rome’s air was considered to contain a chronic source of disease. This book argues that ‘bad air’ (mal’aria) is a neglected aspect of thinking about the city’s history and as a destination for artists, visitors, and Romans both ancient and modern. These problems interfered with exploring Rome, its art and architecture, and representing its landscape. Atmospheric contamination made plein air painting and investigating antique ruins challenging activities. Roman Fever invites an original and alternative perspective on the city and its countryside, revisiting the history of Rome in terms of ideas about climate and the role of the environment. Beautifully illustrated with unfamiliar images, it focuses on the interplay between enthusiasm and inspiration, and debilitation and mortality, all an integral part of discovering and engaging with the Eternal City’s landscape.

56 Art The Photographs of Ray K. Metzker Keith F. Davis Ray K. Metzker (b. 1931) is one of the greatest living photographers of the modern era, although his name may not be as broadly familiar as that of some of his peers. Richly illustrated, The Photographs of Ray K. Metzker brings his extraordinary work to the attention of a larger audience, summarising his life and achievements over the past six decades. With a fresh perspective, curator and author Keith F. Davis explores the roots of Metzker’s innovative vision, from his early interest in photojournalism through his studies with Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind at Chicago’s Institute of Design in the late 1950s, and his bold innovations of the 1960s and 1970s. Metzker’s work is richly diverse, embracing landscape, city scenes and expressive potential of the multiple image. These many themes are united by Metzker’s technical precision and daring, and his graphic use of sunlight and shadow. He has repeatedly reinvented his approach to the medium, and this book testifies to the remarkable range and originality of his work. Exhibition The J. Paul Getty Museum, 25/09/12 – 24/02/13; Henry Art Gallery, University of Washington, Seattle, 22/09/13 – 14/01/14 Keith F.

Heartland The Photographs of Terry Evans Keith F. Davis, Jane L. Aspinwall and April M. Watson The landscape and people of the American Midwest have captivated photographer Terry Evans (b. 1944) throughout her forty-year photographic career. Heartland traces the evolution of Evans’s vision, beginning in the early 1970s with her social documentary images of people in Kansas. She became a landscape photographer in 1978, focusing on the grasses, land and skies of the prairie; this was followed by an aerial survey of the entire Great Plains, from Texas to Canada. She has also photographed Chicago from the air, an abandoned military site, small- town life in Kansas and historical samples of prairie flora and fauna from Chicago’s Field Museum. More recently, she has documented the steel industry in the Midwest and oil and gas drilling in North Dakota. Exhibition The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 20/10/12 – 20/01/13 Keith F.

Abelardo Morell

The Universe Next Door , 2009. Elizabeth Siegel • With contributions by Brett Abbott and Paul Martineau

Over the past twenty-five years, Abelardo Morell (b. 1948) has earned international praise Obscura: Camera for his images that use the language of photography to explore visual surprise and wonder. Born in Havana, Cuba, Morell came to the United States as a teenager in 1962 and later studied photography. He gained attention for intimate, black-and-white pictures of domestic objects from a child’s point of view, inspired by the birth of his son in 1986, as well as images in which he turns a room into a giant camera obscura, projecting exterior views onto interior spaces; and photographs of books that revel in their sensory materiality. In more recent years, he has turned to colour, exploring the camera obscura with a painterly delight and innovating a tent camera that projects outdoor scenes onto a textured ground. This handsome book examines Morell’s career to the present day, including in Bedroom Bridge of the Brooklyn View his earlier works in black-and-white and never before published colour photographs from the last decade.

Art 57 Angels, Demons, and Savages Pollock, Ossorio, Dubuffet Klaus Ottmann and Dorothy Kosinski With essays by Klaus Ottmann and Alicia G. Longwell, a text by Jean Dubuffet and contributions by Elizabeth Steele, Sylvia Albro, Scott Homolka and Chantal Bernicky The artistic relationships among Jackson Pollock (1912–1956), Alfonso Ossorio (1916–1990) and Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985) strongly influenced the development of postwar art. Ossorio, the central figure in the trio, was an early champion of Pollock and the close friend of Dubuffet, whose radically anticultural Art Brut collection was prominently displayed at Ossorio’s Hamptons estate. Dubuffet’s 1951 essay on Ossorio, published here for the first time in English, demonstrates his admiration for the Filipino-American artist and collector. Angels, Demons, and Savages reveals previously unrecognised technical and thematic affinities in the artists’ work, from Dubuffet’s ‘raw’, unconventional style to Ossorio’s use of Christian iconography and grotesque elements to Pollock’s emphasis on medium and gestural force. Complete with two original essays and a conservation study, this groundbreaking catalogue shows how the three artists shaped the aesthetic on both sides of the Atlantic through their exchange of ideas and techniques.

Mexico and American Modernism Ellen G. Landau In the years between the two world wars, the enormous vogue of ‘things Mexican’ reached its peak. Along with the popular appeal of its folkloric and pictorialist traditions, Mexican culture played a significant role in the formation of modernism in the United States. Mexico and American Modernism analyses the complex social, intellectual and artistic ramifications of interactions between avant-garde American artists and Mexico during this critical period. In this insightful book, Ellen Landau looks beyond the well-known European influences on modernism. Instead, she probes the lesser-known yet powerful connections to Mexico and Mexican art that can be seen in the work of four acclaimed American mid-century artists: Philip Guston (1913–1980), Robert Motherwell (1915–1991), Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) and Jackson Pollock (1912–1956). Landau details how these artists’ relationships with the Mexican muralists, expatriate Surrealists and leftist political activists of the 1930s and 1940s affected the direction of their art. Her analysis of this aesthetic cross- fertilization provides an important new framework for understanding the emergence of Abstract Expressionism and the New York School as a whole. Ellen G. Landau is the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of the Humanities at Case Western Reserve University and the leading expert on Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, specialising in 20th-century American and European art and theory.

Literary Studies 61 Selected Poems Seán Ó’Ríordáin Edited by Frank Sewell In the mid-20th century, a new generation of poets writing in Irish emerged, led by young Seán Ó’Ríordáin among others. Ó’Ríordáin’s work has well stood the test of time, and he continues to engage today’s Irish readers and writers. This well-rounded selection of poems brings most of Ó’Ríordáin’s works to English language readers for the first time. The poems appear in their original Irish alongside English translations by some of Ireland’s leading poets. Also included for the first time in English is Ó’Ríordáin’s essay What is Poetry?, considered an extraordinary touchstone of critical insight for poets and literary commentators. The volume reflects Ó’Ríordáin’s seven main concerns: poetry and its place in the artist’s life; the plural self; the relationship between the individual and society; gender relations; the nature of animals; Ireland, its language and culture; and mortality. Seán Ó’Ríordáin (1916–1977) was born in County Cork and lived his life entirely in Ireland. He completed four poetry volumes, the last – The Margellos World Republic of Letters Tar Éis Mo Bháis – published posthumously. He also wrote powerful opinion pieces for The Irish Times during his later years. Frank Sewell is a poet, translator, critic and academic. He is course director of English at the University of Ulster (Coleraine), where he teaches Irish literature May and creative writing. His translations include the poems of Cathal 256 pp. 197x127mm.

The Corpse Washer Sinan Antoon Young Jawad, born to a traditional Shi’ite family of corpse washers and shrouders in Baghdad, decides to abandon the family tradition, choosing instead to become a sculptor, to celebrate life rather than tend to death. He enters Baghdad’s Academy of Fine Arts in the late 1980s, in defiance of his father’s wishes and determined to forge his own path. But the circumstances of history dictate otherwise. Saddam Hussein’s dictatorship and the economic sanctions of the 1990s destroy the socioeconomic fabric of society. The 2003 invasion and military occupation unleash sectarian violence. Corpses pile up, and Jawad returns to the inevitable washing and shrouding. Trained as an artist to shape materials to represent life aesthetically, he now must contemplate how death shapes daily life and the bodies of Baghdad’s inhabitants. Through the struggles of a single desperate family, Sinan Antoon’s novel shows us the heart of Iraq’s complex and violent recent history. Descending into the underworld where the borders between life and death are blurred and where there is no refuge from unending nightmares, Antoon limns a world of great sorrows, a world where the The Margellos World Republic of Letters winds wail. Sinan Antoon is a poet, novelist and translator. Born and raised in Baghdad, he left Iraq after the 1991 Gulf War.

62 Literary Studies The Ingenious Gentleman and Poet Federico García Lorca Ascends to Hell Carlos Rojas • Translated by Edith Grossman In Carlos Rojas’s imaginative novel, the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca, murdered by Francoist rebels in August 1936, finds himself in an inferno that somehow resembles Breughel’s Tower of Babel. He sits alone in a small theatre in this private hell, viewing scenes from his own life performed over and over and over. Unexpectedly, two doppelgängers appear, one a middle-aged Lorca, the other an irascible octogenarian self, and the poet faces a nightmarish confusion of alternative identities and destinies. Carlos Rojas uses a fantastic premise – García Lorca in hell – to reexamine the poet’s life and speculate on alternatives to his tragic end. Rojas creates with a surrealist’s eye and a moral philosopher’s mind. He conjures a profoundly original world, and in so doing earns a place among such international peers as Gabriel García Márquez, Philip Roth, J. M. Coetzee and José Saramago. Carlos Rojas is a novelist, an art historian and a creator of visual works of art. He was born in Barcelona and came to the United States as a young man. In 1960 he joined the faculty of Emory University, where he is now Charles Howard Candler Professor of Spanish Emeritus. Edith Grossman has translated into English many works by major Latin American and Peninsular writers. The Margellos World Republic of Letters May 224 pp. 197x127mm.

The Girl with the Golden Parasol Uday Prakash • Translated by Jason Grunebaum Uday Prakash’s novel of contemporary India is a tender love story – university student Rahul is swept away by a ‘sweet fever’ of love for Analji, the enchanting girl with the golden parasol. But Prakash’s tale is set in a world where the 3,000-year-old Hindu caste system still holds sway and social realities doom the chances of a non-Brahmin boy who loves a Brahmin girl.

La Vida Doble A Novel Arturo Fontaine • Translated by Megan McDowell Set in the darkest years of the Pinochet dictatorship, La Vida Doble is the story of Lorena, a leftist militant who arrives at a merciless turning point when every choice she confronts is impossible. Captured by agents of the Chilean repression, withstanding brutal torture to save her comrades, she must now either forsake the allegiances of motherhood, or betray the political ideals to which she is deeply committed. Ranking with García Márquez and Bolaño on Latin America’s roster of most accomplished authors, Fontaine is a fearless explorer of the most sordid and controversial aspects of Chile’s history and culture. He addresses a set of moral questions specific to Pinochet’s murderous reign, but invites us, four decades later, to consider global conflicts today and question how far we’ve come. Arturo Fontaine was born in Santiago and is professor of philosophy at the Universidad de Chile. He is author of four volumes of poetry and three novels. Megan McDowell is a translator specialising in Chilean and Latin American literature. The Margellos World Republic of Letters June 320 pp. 197x127mm.

64 Politics & Economics The Resurgence of the West How a Transatlantic Union Can Prevent War and Restore the United States and Europe Richard Rosecrance After two centuries of ascent, the United States finds itself in economic decline. Some advise America to cure its woes alone. But the road to isolation leads inevitably to the end of US leadership in the international system, warns Richard Rosecrance in this bold and novel book. Instead, Rosecrance calls for the United States to join forces with the European Union and create a trans-Atlantic economic union. Such a US-Europe community would unblock arteries of trade and investment, rejuvenate the West, and enable Western countries to deal with East Asian challenges from a position of unity and economic strength. In this great merger the author of this far-seeing book offers a positive vision in which members of a tightly knit Western alliance regain economic health and attract Eastern nations to join a new and worldwide international order.

Jewish Studies 65 Totally Unofficial The Autobiography of Raphael Lemkin Edited by Donna-Lee Frieze Among the greatest intellectual heroes of modern times, Raphael Lemkin lived an extraordinary life of struggle and hardship, yet altered international law and redefined the world’s understanding of group rights. He invented the concept and word ‘genocide’ and propelled the idea into international legal status. An uncommonly creative pioneer in ethical thought, he was nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize. Although Lemkin died alone and in poverty, he left behind a model for a life of activism, a legacy of major contributions to international law, and – not least – an unpublished autobiography. Presented here for the first time is his own account of his life, from his boyhood on a small farm in Poland with his Jewish parents, to his perilous escape from Nazi Europe, through his arrival in the United States and rise to influence as an academic, thinker and revered lawyer of international criminal law. Raphael Lemkin (1900–1959), US jurist and Holocaust survivor, served as adviser to the US War Department during World War II and played a crucial role in the discussions leading to the 1948 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.

Rav Kook Mystic in an Age of Revolution Yehudah Mirsky Rav Abraham Isaac Kook (1865–1935) was one of the most influential – and controversial – rabbis of the 20th century. A maverick thinker, he combined strict traditionalism with an embrace of modernity and its heresies, Orthodoxy and tolerance, scholasticism and ecstasy, and passionate nationalism with profound universalism. Though little- remembered outside the Orthodox world to which he belonged, his life and teachings are essential to understanding Israeli politics, contemporary Jewish spirituality and modern Jewish thought. This biography, the first in English in 60 years, offers a full portrait of the man and his contributions. Yehudah Mirsky is Associate Professor of the Practice of Near Eastern and Judaic Studies and the Schusterman Center for Israel Studies at Brandeis University.

Transient Apostle American Zion Paul, Travel, and the Rhetoric of Empire The Old Testament as a Political Text Timothy Luckritz Marquis from the Revolution to the Civil War In a significant reevaluation of Paul’s place in the early Eran Shalev Christian story, Timothy Luckritz Marquis explores the theme The Bible has always been an integral part of American of travel in the apostle’s correspondence. He casts Paul’s political culture. Yet in the years before the Civil War, it was rhetorical strategies against the background of Augustus’s age, the Old Testament, not the New Testament, that pervaded when Rome’s wealth depended on conquests abroad, the political rhetoric. In this book, Eran Shalev examines how this international commerce they facilitated, and the incursion of powerful predilection for Old Testament narratives and foreign customs and peoples they brought about. In so doing, rhetoric in early America shaped a wide range of debates and Luckritz Marquis provides an explanation for how Paul cultural discussions – from republican ideology, constitutional created, maintained and expanded his local communities in interpretation, southern slavery, and more generally the the larger, international Jesus movement and shows how Paul meaning of American nationalism to speculations on the was a product of the material forces of his day. origins of American Indians and to the emergence of ‘This is the single most sophisticated book on Paul to be Mormonism.

US Studies 67 The Gateway Arch Tracy Campbell Rising to a triumphant height of 630 feet, the Gateway Arch in St. Louis is a revered monument to America’s western expansion. Envisioned in 1947 but not completed until the mid-1960s, the arch today attracts millions of tourists annually and is one of the world’s most widely recognised structures. By weaving together social, political and cultural history, historian Tracy Campbell uncovers the complicated and troubling history of the beloved structure. This compelling book explores how a medley of players with widely divergent motivations (civic pride, ambition, greed, among others) brought the Gateway Arch to fruition, but at a price the city continues to pay. Campbell dispels long-held myths and casts a provocative new light on the true origins and meaning of the Gateway Arch. He shows that the monument was the scheme of shrewd city leaders who sought to renew downtown St. Louis and were willing to steal an election, destroy historic buildings, and drive out local people and businesses to achieve Tracy Campbell is professor of their goal.

As a national symbol, the Gateway Arch has a singular place in American culture, Campbell concludes, yet it also stands as an instructive example of failed urban planning.
