A Cultural History of the Sea in the Age of Enlightenment
ISBN: 9781474299046 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume covers a period when Europeans were making great advances in the production and application of pure knowledge, especially in the fields of navigation and discovery. Thus European powers gained empires around the globe and the benefits that came with them, while the rest of the world had to be content with supplying the raw material (i.e labour, bullion, wood, plants, ore) of these good things. This would not have been possible without navies and trading monopolies, enterprises in which the freedom of the seas was disputed, then gained or lost. The essays in this...

A Cultural History of the Sea in the Early Modern Age
ISBN: 9781474299039 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For the first time during the Early Modern period, ships regularly traveled between and among all of basins that comprise the World Ocean. During this period European mariners ventured into new waters, where they encountered new trading partners, new environments, and new opportunities. In the Caribbean and Atlantic coast of the Americas, European mariners sought everything from pearls to gold to codfish, and in pursuing these resources they fractured Indigenous communities. Entering into the ancient monsoon routes of the Indian Ocean brought European ships in touch with the...

A Cultural History of the Sea in the Age of Empire
ISBN: 9781474299084 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Across the 19th century, maritime globalization expanded at a hitherto unimaginable pace, transforming transport and communications over the seas into oceanic networks at a planetary scale. These networks shaped culture in its most expansive sense, affecting seafaring, warfare, empire, commerce, communications, passenger travel, leisure and science. Authors recover the sea experience of people and groups entangled with and yet neglected in an earlier generation of maritime history focused on conquest, empire, and knowledge. Thus, across a century when Britannia nominally ruled...

Indigenous Autocracy: Power, Race, and Resources in Porfirian Tlaxcala, Mexico
ISBN: 9781503636279 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When General Porfirio DÃaz assumed power in 1876, he ushered in Mexico's first prolonged period of political stability and national economic growth—though "progress" came at the cost of democracy. Indigenous Autocracy presents a new story about how regional actors negotiated between national authoritarian rule and local circumstances by explaining how an Indigenous person held state-level power in Mexico during the thirty-five-year dictatorship that preceded the Mexican Revolution (the Porfiriato), and the apogee of scientific racism across Latin America. Although he was one of few...

Musical Wordsworth: Romantic Soundscape and Harmony
ISBN: 9781802078312 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In his Essay of 1815, Wordsworth asserts that 'a pure and refined scheme of harmony' must prevail in all 'higher poetry'. This idea of a structured and complex form of 'harmony' was similarly noted earlier in The Prelude (1805), where Wordsworth famously claimed that the human mind is 'framed even like the breath / And harmony of music'. Musical Wordsworth presents an original understanding of Wordsworthian harmony by examining an organised but dynamic sense of musicality that shapes his poetic theory and practice. This book is the first study to draw on music psychology and aesthetics to...
