Sentimental Masculinity and the Rise of History, 1790-1890
ISBN: 9781107694255 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mike Goode challenges received accounts of the development of modern historical thought, arguing that, in Romantic and Victorian Britain, struggles over historical authority were as much disputes over the nature of proper masculinity as they were contests over ideas and interpretations. Drawing on primary materials from such diverse fields as political economy, moral philosophy, medicine, antiquarian study, and visual satire, Goode uncovers a Romantic historical tradition - one most influentially realized by historical novels - which held that historians must be manly and sentimental in order...

Impurity of Blood: Defining Race in Spain, 1870-1930
ISBN: 9780807135167 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although Francisco Franco courted the Nazis as allies during the Spanish Civil War in the late 1930s, the Spanish dictator's racial ideals had little to do with the kind of pure lineage that obsessed the Nazis. Indeed, Franco's idea of race -- that of a National Catholic state as the happy meeting grounds of many different peoples willingly blended together -- differed from most European conceptions of race in this period and had its roots in earlier views of Spanish racial identity from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In Impurity of Blood, Joshua Goode traces the...
