ISBN: 9781138117174 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Each chapter demonstrates how the presence of diverse and often temporary groups of migrants was a core...

ISBN: 9781138107588 / Angielski / Miękka / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first book-length study of physical disability in eighteenth-century England.

In the process, it asks a series of related questions: what constituted ‘disability’ in eighteenth-century culture and society? How was impairment perceived? How did people with disabilities see themselves and relate to others? What do their stories tell... This is the first book-length study of physical disability in eighteenth-century England.

Henry VIII and History
ISBN: 9781138109308 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Henry VIII remains the most iconic and controversial of all English Kings. For over four-hundred years he has been lauded, reviled and mocked, but rarely ignored. In his many guises - model Renaissance prince, Defender of the Faith, rapacious plunderer of the Church, obese Bluebeard-- he has featured in numerous works of fact and faction, in books, magazines, paintings, theatre, film and television. Yet despite this perennial fascination with Henry the man and monarch, there has been little comprehensive exploration of his historiographic legacy. Therefore scholars will welcome this...
