Taylor & Francis The Rise and Fall of Treason in English History
Book SynopsisThis book explores the development and application of the law of treason in England across more than a thousand years, placing this legal history within a broader historical context.Describing many high-profile prosecutions and trials, the book focuses on the statutes, ordinances and customs that have at various times governed, limited and shaped this worst of crimes. It explores the reasons why treason coalesced around specific offences agreed by both the monarch and the wider political nation, why it became an essential instrument of enforcement in high politics, and why, over the past three hundred years, it has gradually fallen into disuse while remaining on the statute book. This book also considers why treason as both a word and a concept remains so potent in wider modern culture, investigating prevalent current misconceptions about what is and what is not treason. It concludes by suggesting that the abolition or 'death' of treason in the near future, while a logical neTable of ContentsIntroduction 1. Origins to 1066 2.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Practices of Ephemera in Early Modern England
Book SynopsisThis collection is the first to historicise the term ephemera and its meanings for early modern England and considers its relationship to time, matter, and place. It asks: how do we conceive of ephemera in a period before it was routinely employed (from the eighteenth century) to describe ostensibly disposable print? In the sixteenth and seventeenth centurieswhen objects and texts were rapidly proliferatingthe term began to acquire its modern association with transitoriness. But contributors to this volume show how ephemera was also integrally related to wider social and cultural ecosystems. Chapters explore those ecosystems and think about the papers and artefacts that shaped homes, streets, and cities or towns and their attendant preservation, loss, or transformation. The studies here therefore look beyond static records to think about moments of process and transmutation and accordingly get closer to early modern experiences, identities, and practices.Table of ContentsTable of ContentsAcknowledgementsList of IllustrationsBiographies introduction/ spawning concepts/ emerging Megan Heffernan, Expired Time: Archiving Waste Manuscripts Anna Reynolds, What do Texts and Insects have in Common?; or, Ephemerality before Ephemera Bruce Boehrer, Time’s Flies: Ephemerality in the Early Modern Insect World Robert Bearman, What is an ‘ephemeral archive’?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Modernising Postwar France
Book SynopsisThis book is about the role played by architects, engineers and planners in transforming France during the three post-war decades of growing prosperity, a period when modernisation was a central priority of the state, promising a way forward from the shame of defeat in 1940 to a place at the centre of the new Europe.The first part of the book examines the scale of transformation, showing how architecture and urbanism both served the cause of modernisation and shaped the identity of the new France. Mainstream modernism was co-opted to the service of the state, from major public buildings to Gaullist plans for the transformation of Paris to establish the city as the âcapitalâ of Europe.By contrast, the second part of the book explores the critique of state-sponsored modernisation by radical architects from Le Corbusier to the young Turks of the 1960s such as Georges Candilis and the students who attacked the banality of mainstream modernism and its inability to address the growing problems of Franceâs cities. Following May 1968, the Beaux-Arts was closed, the Grand Prix de Rome, symbol of the old order, abolished â for a while the establishment might continue as before, but progressive architecture was set on a new course.Beautifully illustrated and written to be accessible to all, the book sets the discussion of architecture and urbanism in its social, political and economic contexts. As such, it will appeal both to students and scholars of the history of architecture and urbanism and to those with a wider interest in Franceâs post-war history.Trade ReviewThis is a fascinating story, very well told. It dives into great detail on some aspects, like the determined efforts to bring in modern construction methods, or the evolving shape of architects’ education, but not in a way that breaks up the narrative, and the treatment of housing and planning choices in Paris and its region is crystal-clear. It’s clearly based on a huge amount of reading and research…knocked into a compelling story of a state and a profession grappling with vital social issues, in ways that sometimes recall British struggles, and sometimes look culturally very different….this is a masterful review of a fascinating period in the development history of our endlessly-interesting neighbour, full of insights into the professions and culture that shaped an era.Martin Crookston, Built Environment Vol 49 No 2Table of ContentsPreface Abbreviations Introduction: Architecture, Urbanism and the Trente Glorieuses Part 1: Modernisation Takes Command: From Austerity to Affluence 1.
