Published to mark the 30th anniver-sary of the street disturbances that took place in Liverpool 8 in 1981, a time inwhich Liverpool was at the forefront of 

events that also rocked other British cit-ies and communities including Brixtonand Birmingham, Liverpool 81 recountsthe fascinating history of what becameknown nationally as ‘the Toxteth Riots.’Drawing together memories of and re-sponses to the 1981 riots from some of the key protagonists, the book exploreswhy they took place and what their con-

sequences and legacies have been.The book goes on to ask what hasbecome of the people and places most

directly affected by the riots – Black andMinority Ethnic communities, and resi-dents of what were then labelled InnerCities, not just in Liverpool but further

aeld – and how these communitieshave reacted to and moved on over thepast 30 years.

Uncontrollable, anarchic, separate andalienated from mainstream England,the Liverpool of popular imaginationis a hotbed of radicalism and creativity.

But is that reputation really justied?Starting in 1911, a year which saw 

a warship on the Mersey suppress-ing near revolution in the LiverpoolTransport Strike, the remarkable exhi-bition of paintings by Picasso, Matisse,Cézanne and the European avant-gardealongside works by local artists at theBluecoat, and the opening of The Liver

Building, the rst major building inthe UK to use reinforced concrete in itsconstruction and crowned by two liver

birds that came to symbolise the city’sresilience, this fascinating book looks atone hundred years of radicals and radi-calism in Liverpool.

Ranging widely across a century of politics, music, football, theatre,architecture and art, Liverpool: Cityof Radicals concludes with a look atthe contemporary city and asks whatrole radicalism can play in the future of Liverpool.

Liverpool gained a unique and notori-ous reputation during the 19th century for being an abnormally violent andcriminal place. The Monster Evil  ex-

plores the historical foundations of thisstigmatization: were the fears real or aninvention of the Victorian newspapers?In answering such questions it examinesLiverpool’s violent crime and how effec-tively it was policed by the newly estab-lished constabulary through the use of local and national press reports, con-temporary accounts and police records.

All forms of criminal interpersonal vio-lence are described and analysed in thecontext of the city; including notorious

murders such as the Tithebarn Streetkicking of 1874 and the ‘wholesale poi-sonings’ by two sisters in 1883.

‘Victorian Liverpool had an unenviablereputation for violence. This book sets

out to assess both the scale and variety 

of Liverpool’s violence, and the means by 

which it was policed. It adds signicantly 

to debates about the history of criminal

violence and of policing. Finally, it might

also be read usefully by contemporary 

politicians and media pundits.’

In 1816, following the scandalous col-lapse of his marriage, Byron left Eng-land forever. His rst destination wasLake Geneva where he stayed with his

private physician, John Polidori, near toPercy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Godwin andClaire Clairmont. Byron in Geneva fo-cuses on the poet’s life during that sum-mer, but also on that crucial moment inthe development of his writing when,urged on by Shelley, Byron tried totransform himself into a Romantic poetof the Wordsworthian variety. The book gives a vivid impression of what Byronthought and felt in these few monthsafter the breakdown of his marriage,

and explores the different aspects of hisnature that emerge in contact with a re-markable cast of supporting characters,also including Madame de Staël and

Matthew Lewis. Ellis challenges recentdamning studies of Byron and throughhis meticulous exploration of his privateand public life at this pivotal time, he re-asserts the value of Byron’s wit, warm-heartedness, and hatred of cant.‘A brilliantly detailed retelling of the

personal and literary crisis in Byron’s

life. Vivid, sympathetic and judicious,

this remarkable book is a provocative

counter to recent biographical and 

critical studies.’  Jenny Uglow

Epicentre of the Revolution of 1789,erstwhile bastion of the skilled working-class and centre of radical agitation,along with Pigalle and Montmartre a fo-

cus for popular and rafsh night-life inthe early twentieth century, the Bastille,Eastern Paris (also known as the Fau-bourg Saint-Antoine) is now an ethni-cally and socially mixed quartier whichbears the traces of its previous avatars.

In a fascinating tour, Keith Readercharts the history and cultural geogra-phy of this unique area of Paris, from thefortress and prison that gave the area itsname to the building of the largest andcostliest opera house in the world.

‘What is provocative is an underlying 

argument that Paris cannot yet be

consigned as a living museum. It is this

spark which catches re soon into the

book and makes it so entertaining and accessible … it not only illuminates

one of the many shadowy places in

Parisian history but has an importance

for anyone interested in cities and what

they might mean.’

This book is the product of DonaldAkenson’s 40 years of research andwriting on Irish social history and its re-lationship to the Irish diaspora – and it

is also the product of 65 years of tryingto gure out where Swedish-Americaactually came from, and why. These twomatters, he shows, are intimately relat-ed. Ireland and Sweden each provide atight case study of a larger phenomenon,one that, for better or worse, shapedthe modern world: the Great EuropeanDiaspora of the ‘true’ 19th century.

Akenson’s original argument em-ploys sharp transnational comparisonsand situates the two case studies in the

context of the Great European Migra-tion and in the even larger issue of whatconstitutes a diaspora, and how the con-cept of diaspora has become central to

twenty-rst century transnational stud-ies. He argues that the history commu-nity still has a lot to learn from econom-ic historians; and, simultaneously, thatnarrow, economically based explana-tions of the Great European Migrationleave out many of the most importantaspects of the whole complex trans-action. He believes that culture andeconomic matters count, and that leav-ing either one on the margins of expla-nation yields no valid explanation at all.

‘A work of impeccable scholarship.’ 

Prof. David Bellos, Princeton University 

The consumer revolution, extendingmarket forces into every area of socialand private life, has been perceived asa challenge to core elements in Frenchculture. Historians and sociologistshave charted the increasing commer-cialisation of everyday life over the

twentieth century, but few have paid systematic attentionto the testimony provided by authors of ction. Consumer Chronicles offers close readings of a series of novels, selectedfor their authentic portrayal of consumer behaviour, and ana-lysed in relation to their social, cultural and historical con-

texts. This study, covering the impact of afuence on Frenchshoppers, shopkeepers and society, provides new insights intothe history and characteristics of the consumer mentality.

‘I was delighted with this work. I thought

it provocative, intellectually engaging.’ 

Dr Wendy Michallat, University of Shefeld 

Although France has changed much inrecent decades, colonial-era imagery continues to circulate widely in comics,in part because the colonial archivesare easily accessible, and through therepublication of colonial-era comics

that are viewed as classics, such as the Belgian Hergé’s Tintin series and Alain Saint-Ogan’s Zig and Puce series.

This important new study situates comics in debates aboutFrench colonialism, arguing that cartoonists still use repre-sentations of colonial history in their comics as a way of inter-

vening in debates about contemporary France and its currentrelationships to its former colonies.

The Noir Atlantic follows the inuence of African Americanauthor Chester Himes on Francophone African crime ction.In 1953, Himes emigrated to Paris where he struggled topublish, just as he had in the US, until his ‘Harlem DomesticSeries’ transformed him into a cult gure. For African

authors, these novels also modelled an escape from a highliterary paradigm inherited from the colonial experience.These authors turned their backs on France and its ideologicalcriteria of literary success and embraced a new aesthetic. In theprocess, the Francophone African authors of noir became lessmotivated by cultural nationalism and more with entertainingthe reader. The book demonstrates why we should considerthis move to a ‘frivolous literature’ as a profoundly signicantmoment in Francophone African literary history.‘A captivating book which carves out new terrain through

absorbing readings of the under-explored corpus of Francophone African crime writing.’   Dominic Thomas, UCLA

French Studies in and for the 21st Century draws together a range of key scholars to examine the current stateof French Studies in the UK, takingaccount of the variety of factors which

national education are changing the ways in which we learn,teach, research and assess. Required reading for all UK French Studies scholars, the book will also be an essential textfor the French Studies community worldwide as it grappleswith current demands and plans for the future.

The steady increase in joint pro-grammes and qualications offered by UK and French universities is a causefor celebration. But language con-straints, nancial pressures and politi-

cal uncertainty present real obstacles tocontinued expansion. How are these tobe overcome? And how can higher edu-cation (HE) institutions on either sideof the Channel help each other to real-

ise the enormous potential of Franco-British partnerships?This book offers a valuable opportunity to take stock of in-

tensifying bilateral cooperation in the HE sector, to share ex-perience and best practice, and to identify new initiatives andareas for collaboration. Boasting contributions from leading

politicians and higher education managers, alongside essaysfrom distinguished international scholars, it will be requiredreading for academics and university leaders.

Despite the number of broad surveysof contemporary French ction thathave appeared recently, the questionof the nouveau roman’s literary legacy remains an under-researched eld.

Consequently, there is an urgentneed to reassess both the thematiclegacy of the nouveau roman and tooffer a more balanced appraisal of the preoccupations of contemporary 

French ction and autoction. Thresholds of Meaning offersevidence not only of a reprise and reworking of certain‘traditional’ themes (family, heritage and history; memory andcommemoration; the relationships between the generations,between the individual and the community etc), but also of 

a reinstatement of meaning at the centre of literary enquiry.

‘A very signicant and exciting 

contribution to the steadily growing 

eld of Galician cultural studies.’ 

José Colmeiro, Prince of Asturias Chair,University of Auckland 

This book   explores a part of Europe’scultural and social landscape that hasuntil now remained largely unmapped:the exciting body of creative work emerging since the 1970s from contact

between the small Atlantic country of Galicia, in the far north-west of the Iberian peninsula, and the Anglophone world.

It traces the innovative mappings of Galician culturalhistory found in literary works by and about Galicians in theAnglophone world in works by artists (Isaac Díaz Pardo),

novelists (Carlos Durán, Manuel Rivas, Xesús Fraga, Xelísde Toro, Almudena Solana) and poets (Ramiro Fonte, XavierQueipo, Erin Moure).

A critical examination of the republicancareer of one of Ireland’s most abiding-ly controversial political gures, SeánMacBride (1904–88), focusing on hissubversive activities prior to his rein-

vention as a constitutional politician.MacBride, a Nobel and Lenin prize-winning humanitarian, was a youthfulparticipant in the Irish Revolution of 1916-23. He was an active member of 

the Dublin Brigade of the IRA during the War of Independ-ence, and found himself on the losing side of the 1922-23 CivilWar. Rising through the ranks of the post-revolutionary re-publican movement, he occupied a leadership position in theIRA for fteen years, bridging the difcult formative years of 

the Irish Free State to the ascent of de Valera and Fianna Fáil.From 1938, he carved out a successful career at the Irish Barthrough the years of the Emergency, while maintaining linkswith both the IRA and the German legation in Dublin.

This book argues that asylum seekers’engagement with the law, and theexclusionary culture of host nations,casts them as the latest incarnation of the infrahuman ‘other’ which was the

A challenging new study about the pro-duction, the spread and the use of un-derstandings of national history and

identity for political purposes in twenti-eth-century Argentina. Based on exten-sive research of primary and publishedsources, it analyses how nationalist

views about what it meant to be Argentine were built into thecountry’s long drawn-out crisis of liberal democracy from the1930s to the 1980s. Eschewing the notion of any straightfor-ward relationship between cultural customs, ideas and politi-cal practices, the study provides a more nuanced framework 

for understanding the interplay between popular culture, in-tellectuals and the state in the promotion, co-option and re-pression of conicting narratives about the nation’s history.

This book positions architecture as a re-search agenda for sociologists interest-ed in the relationship between power,culture and collective identities. Adopt-ing a critical approach, the book frames

architecture as a eld of symbolic andmaterial conict over collective identi-ties. These arguments are developedwith reference to notable architecturalprojects in Europe and N.America, in-

cluding The Reichstag (Berlin); the Millennium Dome (Lon-don) and the rebuilding of the Ground Zero Site (New York).

Drawing on sociological theories, it suggests that major ar-chitectural projects can act as tangible, ‘concrete’ expressionsof the ultimately contested nature of collective identities, and

that as such provide a focus for questioning the processesthrough which identities are constructed and maintained by politically powerful actors through the cultural sphere.

This beautifully illustratedbook explores thearchitectural features andurban character of Haratal-Bilad, the principal

settlement of Manah, animportant oasis of centralOman. Originally a frontiersettlement, Harat al-Bilad

straddles the boundary between the foothills of the GreenMountains and the desert foreland and has long played animportant role in the historical and cultural development of the region. Like its geographical namesake, Manah crossesand dees boundaries—and will be of interest to a wide rangeof readers, including historians, architects, archaeologists,

conservationists, and policy makers.

‘A pleasure to read, this well-written

book offers many thoughtful and 

provocative reections on anatomy and 

exhibition.’ 

Professor Maria FrawleyThe George Washington University 

Anatomy as Spectacle examines publicexhibitions of human anatomy from theearly 1700s to the present day. The way 

in which these exhibitions combine the medical and spectac-ular has made them an inuential and intensely productivecultural space, an important site for the popularisation fornew ideas about bodily health and care. The book traces theinuential role of such exhibitions in popularising a distinctly modern idea of the body as something requiring constantwork and careful self-cultivation—an idea which continues toshape the contemporary fascination with self-improvement.

This collection of essays has its originin a conference held at Oxford to mark the publication of the rst English edi-tion of the Acts of Chalcedon. It placesChalcedon in a broader context, and

bring out the importance of the acts of the early general councils from the fthto the seventh century, documents thatbecause of their bulk and relative inac-cessibility have received only limitedattention until recently.

‘A novel, original, suggestive, and 

profoundly thought-provoking study of 

Latin American independence. A classic

in the making.’ 

Will Fowler, University of St Andrews

The struggles for independence inLatin America during the rst half of the 19th century were accompanied

by a wide-ranging debate about political rights, nationality and citizenship. This book investigates the neglected role of gender in that discussion. Examining women writers fromBrazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, the book tracesthe contradictions inherent in revolutionary movements that,

while arguing for the rights of all, remained ambivalent, atbest, about the place of women. It reveals the complex roleof women in shaping the vexed ideologies of independence.

This volume addresses the question of migration in Europe. It is concernedwith the extent to which racism andanti-immigration discourse has been tosome extent normalised and ‘democra-tised’ in European and national politi-cal discourses.

Mainstream political parties areespousing increasingly coercive policies

and frequently attempting to legitimate such approaches vianationalist-populist slogans and coded forms of racism. Iden-tity, Belonging and Migration shows that that liberalism isnot enough to oppose the disparate and diffuse xenophobiaand racism faced by many migrants today and calls for new-

conceptions of anti-racism within and beyond the state.
