Book The Superstitious Mind

Download or read book The Superstitious Mind written by Judith Devlin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing book examines popular religion, traditional medicine, witchcraft, apparitions, demonology, and magic in nineteenth-century rural France. Devlin demonstrates that many of the impulses and mental processes now considered superstitious constituted a wholly reasonable response to the pressures of a harsh and impoverished life. Far from the product of a primitive mentality, many of these beliefs have survived in modern culture and can even illuminate the nature of modern mass politics.

Book The Rhine  National Tensions  Romantic Visions

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all European landscapes and regions, the Rhine is one of the most heavily overlaid with cultural and political meaning. Cradle of Romanticism, tourism, and the picturesque, bone of contention between the German and French spheres of cultural and geopolitical influence, the Rhine has attracted armies, artists, activists and tourists for centuries and has featured prominently the key writings of Europe’s literary and intellectual history from Byron to Lucien Febvre. This volume brings together eminent literary and cultural historians to present materials and analyses from various of the central nexus of European culture. The volume also contains a unique and comprehensive anthology of key texts (historical, poetical and polemical) related to the Rhineland and its contested position. Contributors are: Reinhard Baumann, Manfred Beller, Hans-Werner Breunig, Giovanna Cermelli, Joep Leerssen, Elmar Scheuren, Helmut J. Schneider, and Waldemar Zacharasiewicz.

Book The Language Question under Napoleon

Download or read book The Language Question under Napoleon written by Stewart McCain and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new perspective on the cultural politics of the Napoleonic Empire by exploring the issue of language within four pivotal institutions - the school, the army, the courtroom and the church. Based on wide-ranging research in archival and published sources, Stewart McCain demonstrates that the Napoleonic State was in reality fractured by disagreements over how best to govern a population characterized by enormous linguistic diversity. Napoleonic officials were not simply cultural imperialists; many acted as culture-brokers, emphasizing their familiarity with the local language to secure employment with the state, and pointing to linguistic and cultural particularism to justify departures from which what others might have considered desirable practice by the regime. This book will be of interest to scholars of the Napoleonic Empire, and of European state-building and nationalisms.

Book A History of the Alans in the West

Download or read book A History of the Alans in the West written by Bernard S. Bachrach and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1973-07-25 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of the Alans in the West was first published in 1973. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. The Alans, a nomadic people from the steppe lands of south Russia, were among the many invaders of the Roman empire who helped to bring about its fall. Unlike the majority of the invaders, they were not Germans — they were Indo-Iranians—and they were not, like most barbarians, organized in agricultural communities. This history traces their westward movement from the time of their first mention in sources of classical antiquity through the early Middle Ages. Professor Bachrach discusses the social and religious institutions of the Alans and especially their military customs. As he shows, they contributed much to the military repertoire of the West, especially the feigned retreat tactic and the role of the cavalry as the primary part of the army. In their westward movement the Alans were assimilated by people in Gaul and Italy and served the empire in a military capacity during the fourth and fifth centuries. IN addition to their military and political impact in several areas, the Alans also influenced early medieval artistic styles, literary developments, place names, and personal names. A number of illustrations provide examples of the artistic influence of the Alans, and there are maps pertinent to the history.

Book Food Technology  Science  and Marketing

Download or read book Food Technology Science and Marketing written by A. P. den Hartog and published by John Donald. This book was released on 1995 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys the historical dimensions of food technology, science and marketing in relation to the emergence of the modern diet in Europe, and considers trends, developments and processes in the making of this diet from the second part of the nineteenth century to the present day. Shows that although a recognizably European diet does not exist, there is nevertheless a common denominator across Europe. It shows how food technology, science and marketing have transformed the former meager, monotonous food of Europe into the highly diversified diets of today. Considers the social and historical aspects of Europe's experience of nutrition and the food industry, cooling and freezing techniques, bread and the baking industry, milk and milk products, chocolate as a product for mass consumption, industrialization and dietary change, developments from corner shop to supermarket and food advertisements.
