  • Maurice Hugh Keen 1933–2012
    MAURICE HUGH KEEN Maurice Hugh Keen 1933–2012 THERE MAY HAVE BEEN OTHER Fellows of the Academy described in fiction under their own guise but probably none shown in such seemingly mun- dane activity as the start of a tutorial on the Hussites. So Maurice Keen appeared in Frederick Forsyth’s 1989 novel The Negotiator.1 The scene is appropriate. Maurice was one of the great university tutors of the twentieth century, not just in History and not just in Oxford where he spent the whole of his professional life. This he unassumingly combined with research and publications that placed him in the top flight of historians of his generation. Some distinguished scholars seek the valida- tion of repeated preferment, chasing advancement across institutions, countries and continents. By comparison, Maurice’s professional trajec- tory appears flat, as a tutor for four decades in the same Oxford college where he had himself studied as an undergraduate. Yet his ambitions were of a different order. The apparent parochialism of his curriculum vitae belied a deeply fulfilled academic life in which devotion to teaching formed a natural complement to scholarly research of international reach and impact that transformed (he would probably have disapproved of the term ‘revolutionised’) understanding and appreciation of the culture of the people who ruled Western Europe for over half a millennium. His historical legacy rests equally in the hundreds of pupils he inspired within and beyond historical studies and in major works of subtle, sophisticated scholarship of the highest pedigree and quality. His most important book, 1 F. Forsyth, The Negotiator (London, 1989), p.

VOGEL ★ A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice ★ A Washington Post Best Book of the Year ★ An Economist Best Book of the Year ★ A Wall Street Journal Book of the Year No one in the twentieth century had a greater impact on world history than Deng Xiaoping. And no scholar is better qualified than Ezra Vogel to disentangle the contradictions embodied in the life and legacy of China’s boldest strategist—the pragmatic, disciplined force behind China’s radical economic, technological, and social transformation. “Vogel has gone to enormous lengths to document his subject…Vogel’s painstaking research provides plenty of fascinating detail…On the ways through which Deng set about the enormous task of rebuild - ing the gutted economy, shattered by decades of turmoil under Mao Zedong, Vogel is exhaustive.” —SIMON ELEGANT, TIME “Deng led a long and remarkable life, packed with drama and global significance, one that deserves to be dissected in detail…There’s no question that Vogel has gone farther than anyone else to date in telling Deng’s story. For that he is to be applauded; there is a whole hoard of valuable material here that we probably would not have gained otherwise.” —CHRISTIAN CARYL, FOREIGN POLICY “Ezra Vogel’s encyclopedic Deng Xiaoping and the Transformation of China is the most exhaustive English retelling of Deng’s life. Vogel…seems to have interviewed or found the memoirs of nearly every person who spoke with Deng, and has painstakingly re-created a detailed and intimate chronology of Deng’s roller-coaster career.” —JOSHUA KURLANTZICK, THE NATION “From arguably the most important scholar of East Asia, this is an important book on the force behind China’s transformation in the late twentieth century, whose full fruits are visible only today.

No coincidence there. History was my father’s passion and primary source of intellectual stimulation. History books were his daily companions. Of all the Foundation’s many activities, none gave him greater pleasure than the History Prize. It is an immense sadness that he is not with us to celebrate the fortieth anniversary.

  • Chivalry and Crisis at the Court of Juan II of Castile: the Chivalric Writing of Alonso De Cartagena and His Contemporaries
    Chivalry and Crisis at the Court of Juan II of Castile: The Chivalric Writing of Alonso de Cartagena and his Contemporaries. This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. August 2016 James Michael Ellis Trinity Hall 2 3 Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution, except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. 4 5 Abstract This study addresses chivalric writing and court culture during the reign of Juan II of Castile and aims to examine the changing chivalric ideal in Castile during this turbulent period of Castilian history. My thesis argues that political crisis in Castile led to a corresponding crisis in Castilian chivalry as commentators at the royal court tried to correct the failings of the Castilian nobility. The study is based around the work of Alonso de Cartagena, an esteemed diplomat, translator and the Bishop of Burgos in the latter years of Juan II’s reign.

  • Technological Change and the Evolution of the Law of War*
    International Review of the Red Cross (2015), 97 (900), 1157–1177. The evolution of warfare doi:10.1017/S1816383116000424 OPINION NOTE Technological change and the evolution of the law of war* Rain Liivoja Dr Rain Liivoja is a Senior Lecturer and Society in Science– Branco Weiss Fellow at Melbourne Law School, University of Melbourne, where he co-directs the Programme on the Regulation of Emerging Military Technologies (PREMT). He is also an Affiliated Research Fellow of the Erik Castre´n Institute of International Law and Human Rights, University of Helsinki. Abstract Advances in military technology have led many, including the developers of such technology, to propose new regulation. International lawyers have extensively examined the adequacy of the existing law to address emerging technology, but they have devoted relatively little attention in these analyses to the prior development of the law as a result of, or despite, technological change. This essay highlights two challenges that those wishing to undertake such an exercise might encounter. The first of these is the general paucity of serious engagement with the history of international law applicable in armed conflicts and the perpetuation of a particular “origin myth” of international humanitarian law. The second challenge has to do with the controversies about the impact of technology on society in general, and the impact of military technology on warfare in particular. Nevertheless, the essay concludes by pointing towards some of the insight that might be gained from a more history-conscious analysis of the relationship between technology and law in the military context. * The research for this paper was supported by a Society in Science–Branco Weiss Fellowship (administered by ETH Zurich) and by an Australian Research Council’s Discovery Project.
