Book Social Attitudes and Political Structures

Download or read book Social Attitudes and Political Structures written by Tim Thornton and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2001-02-13 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume includes papers on political, religious, social and economic history and the history of ideas during the 15th century. The papers challenge existing conceptions and open new avenues of discussion on longstanding debates. Themes covered include parliaments and their relationships with the monarchs of the period, both in Scotland and in England; queens and their role in the 15th century English polity; the ideas that lay behind the English claims to the French throne, and the rituals of peace-making in the Hundred Years War. Debates over the importance of lordship and service are also touched upon, in a paper which examines Lord Hastings' retainers in the defence of Calais, while another chapter discusses the local politics of a small Welsh marcher lordship. The crucial subject of Lancastrian government finances in the 1450s also receives a fresh examination. In religious history, papers examine the activity of monastic propagandists and the religious life of cathedrals through the activity of fraternities based in them. There are also considerations of a noble widow, and of the 15th century rural economy.

Book Essays on French History and Historians

Download or read book Essays on French History and Historians written by John Stuart Mill and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1985-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J.S. Mill's deep interest in French intellectual, political, and social affairs began in 1820 when, in his fourteenth year, he went to France to live for a year with the family of Sir Samuel Bentham. French became his second language, and France his second home, where he died and was buried in 1873. His interest in history began even earlier when, as a child of seven, he tried to imitate his father's labours on the History of British India; though he never wrote a history in his maturity, study of the past remained a passion and helped shape the philosophy of history that informed his views of society and ethics. His intense interest in contemporary French politics also led him to seek connections between historical developments and present trends, both seen by his from a Radical perspective approproate to what he believed to be an age of transition. The English historians of France, including Walter Scott and Thomas Carlyle, as well as the French, some of whom were themselves political figures, are judged by their historical methods, but those methods are seen as having practical effects in shaping as well as revealing the mind of the times. This volume brings together for the first time the essays, running from 1826 to 1849, that meld these abiding interests. They give as well insights into Mill's personal aspirations, his developing view of comparative politics and sociology, his concern for freedom, and his feminism. During these years Mill worked on a published his System of Logic, Book VI of which shows in condensed form the results of the speculations here developed; reading these essays with that work, which made his reputation as a philosopher, enables one to see the effects of romanticism on analytic thought in a way not as clearly evident even in Mill's Autobiography. Independently important, then, the essays in this volume also enable us to interpret anew the practical and theoretical concerns fundamental to his formative years and maturity. John C. Cairns' Introduction demonstrates how the essays reveal, through their reactions to the Revolutions of 1789, 1830, and 1848, and to French historiography, politics, and thought, the effect of France on Mill's ideas, and also the way in which his other concerns influenced his reactions to France. The texts, with the variants and notes that are the hallmark of this edition, are described in John M. Robson's Textual Introduction, which explains the editorial principles and methods.

Book The Intellectual Property of Food and Hospitality  From Sybaris    Banquets to NASA   s Deep Space Food Challenge

Download or read book The Intellectual Property of Food and Hospitality From Sybaris Banquets to NASA s Deep Space Food Challenge written by Nuno Pires de Carvalho and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuno Pires de Carvalho, widely honored for his incomparable research in the origins and development of intellectual property, has devoted a considerable portion of his writing to the role this field of law plays in specific areas of human endeavor, including medicine and fashion. In this book, he brings his meticulous scholarship to bear on how society has constructed intellectual property so as to adapt it to the needs of the industries of food and hospitality and how entrepreneurs have extracted from intellectual property the most appropriate means for capturing knowledge and reputation in these two fields of business. Presenting a comprehensive collection of more than two hundred documentary sources illustrating this evolution since antiquity ¬– with notes explaining the context and relevance of each source – the book delineates the enchainment of important moments in the development of intellectual property in the context of food and hospitality. Along the way, the book details the particular development of such specific aspects as the following: rules against unfair competition among food producers and preparers; patents for culinary recipes, foodstuffs, and hospitality services; exclusions from patentability; marking of goods and containers; inventions of devices and processes in food preparation; identifiers in such industries as cutlery, baking, winemaking, cheesemaking, and brewing; emergence of intellectual property for plant varieties; database protection for organized compilations of recipes. To illustrate some of the peculiarities of intellectual property as applied to food and hospitality, the book includes numerous pictures of patent and copyright claim documents, trademarks, advertisements, labels, culinary book covers, and food preparation devices. Because of the multiple nature of the human activities behind it, food calls for every variant of intellectual property. Thus, this matchless volume will be of great interest to all concerned with any branch of intellectual property law, including practitioners, academics, magistrates, government officials, and even the legal community as a whole. The book will reveal not only the ways intellectual property evolves and adapts to social changes but also how intellectual property law accommodates the needs and aspirations of entrepreneurs in the fields of food and hospitality.
