The Invention of Art: A Cultural History (Paperback)

With The Invention of Art,Larry Shiner challenges our conventional understandings of art and asks us to reconsider its history entirely,arguing that the category of fine art is a modern invention—that the lines drawn between art and craft resulted from key social transformations in Europe during the long eighteenth century. "Shiner spent over a decade honing what he calls 'a brief history of the idea of art.' This carefully prepared and—given the extent and complexity of what he's

Vico and Naples: The Urban Origins of Modern Social Theory

Vico and Naples is an intellectual portrait of the Neapolitan philosopher Giambattista Vico () that reveals the politics and motivations of one of Europe's first scientists of society. According to the commonplaces of the literature on the Neapolitan,Vico was a solitary figure who,at a remove from the political life of his larger community,steeped himself in the recondite debates of classical scholarship to produce his magnum opus,the New Science. Barbara Ann Naddeo shows,

The Father of Us All: War and History, Ancient and Modern

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hanson, Victor Davis, PUBLISHER: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, Victor Davis Hanson has long been acclaimed as one of our leading scholars of ancient history. In recent years he has also become a trenchant voice on current affairs, bringing a historian's deep knowledge of past conflicts to bear on the crises of the present, from 9/11 to Iran. "War," he writes, "is an entirely human enterprise." Ideologies change, technologies develop, new strategies are invented?but human nature is constant across time and space. The dynamics of warfare in the present age still remain comprehensible to us through careful study of the past. Though many have called the War on Terror unprecedented, its contours would have been quite familiar to Themistocles of Athens or William Tecumseh Sherman. And as we face the menace of a bin Laden or a Kim Jong-Il, we can prepare ourselves with knowledge of how such challenges have been met before. "The Father of Us All "brings together much of Hanson's finest writing on war and society, both ancient and modern. The author has gathered a range of essays, and combined and revised them into a richly textured new work that explores such topics as how technology shapes warfare, what constitutes the "American way of war," and why even those who abhor war need to study military history. "War is the father and king of us all," Heraclitus wrote in ancient Greece. And as Victor Davis Hanson shows, it is no less so today.

The French Riviera: A Cultural History (Paperback)

The French Riviera conjures up images of yachts on an azure blue sea; the dark green of pines and swaying palms; sports cars on the Corniche roads; the Monte Carlo casino and the Cannes film festival. But as Julian Hale reveals in this fascinating volume,there is another Riviera. Above Monaco towers a ruined reminder of Roman power,the Emperor Augustus' Trophy of the Alps. Monuments to Napoleon and Maginot Line forts testify to turbulent times,while statues and gravestones recall the belle Epoque. Church

Ancient Greek Letter Writing: A Cultural History (600 BC-

In this volume,Ceccarelli offers a history of the development of letter writing in ancient Greece from the archaic to the early Hellenistic period. Highlighting the specificity of letter-writing,as opposed to other forms of communication and writing,the volume looks at documentary letters,but also traces the role of embedded letters in the texts of the ancient historians,in drama,and in the speeches of the orators. While a letter is in itself the transcription of an oral message and,as such,c
