Shame and Modernity in Britain: 1890 to the Present
ISBN: 9781349595341 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 323 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

As such, it investigates how social and cultural expectations in both war and peace, changing attitudes to sexual identities and sexual behaviour, new innovations in media and changing representations of reputation, all became sites for shame's reconstruction, making it thoroughly modern and in tune...

Male Suicide and Masculinity in 19th-Century Britain: Stories of Self-Destruction
ISBN: 9781350264922 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book shows how interpretations of suicidal motives were guided by gendered expectations of behaviour, and that these expectations were constructed to create meaning and understanding for family, friends and witnesses. Providing an insight into how people of this era understood suicidal behaviour and motives, it challenges the assertion that suicide was seen as a distinctly feminine act, and that men who took their own lives were feminized as a result. Instead, it shows that masculinity was understood in a more nuanced way than gender binaries allow, and that a man’s masculinity was...

The Policing of Belfast 1870-1914
ISBN: 9781350011090 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Policing of Belfast, 1870-1914 examines the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) in late Victorian Belfast in order to see how a semi-military, largely rural constabulary adapted to the problems that a city posed. Mark Radford explores whether the RIC, as the most public face of British government, was successful in controlling a recalcitrant Irish urban populace. This examination of the contrast in styles between urban and rural policing and semi-rural and civil constabulary offers an important insight into the social, political and military history of Ireland at the turn of the...
