Decapitation in Sources on Alexander the Great
ISBN: 9783031191732 / Angielski / Twarda / 129 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores cases of decapitation found in sources on the reign of Alexander the Great. Despite the enormous literature on the career of Alexander the Great, this is the first study on the characterisation of violent deaths during his hectic reign. This historiographical omission has involved the tacit and blind acceptance of the details found in the ancient sources. Therefore, this book seeks to illustrate how cultural expectations, literary models, and ideological taboos shaped these accounts and argues for a close and critical reading of the sources. Given the different cultural...

A series of overlapping myths related to the Black Death emerged based only in part on historical evidence. Cultural memory...

Reimagining the Historian in Victorian England: Books, the Literary Marketplace, and the Scholarly Persona
ISBN: 9783031284601 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book traces the transformation of history from a Romantic literary pursuit into a modern academic discipline during the second half of the nineteenth century, and shows how this change inspired Victorians to reconsider what it meant to be a historian. This reconceptualization of the ‘historian’ lies at the heart of this book as it explores how historians strove to forge themselves a collective scholarly persona that reflected and legitimised their new disciplinary status and gave them authority to speak on behalf of the past. The author argues that historians used the persona as a...
