Crime at Christmas

Das Geheimnis der Weihnachtstage

Kriminalroman

Penguin Monarchs

When Henry IV seized the throne from his cousin Richard II, people saw it as a hopeful new beginning for England. The first monarch to have English as his mother tongue since the Norman conquest, Henry seemed to embody the ideals of chivalric kingship: mercy, piety, military prowess and learning. Yet deposing a crowned monarch was not a stable foundation on which to build a reign. Henry IV found himself challenged from all sides, plagued by conspiracies, rebellions, assassination attempts and crippling debts, while his tense relationships with Parliament and with his own son, Shakespeare's Prince Hal, saw his grip on power falter. Nevertheless, he was the first king and founder of a Lancastrian dynasty which would go on to shape England for centuries to come. In this lively study, Catherine Nall reappraises a monarch who weathered upheaval and uncertainty and held on to the throne through sheer force of will.

Henry IV (Penguin Monarchs)

The rise in the use of private prosecution is of increasing importance to criminal practitioners as well as civil litigators and commercial practitioners. This book sets out the history of private prosecutions, the statutory bases and the practical issues involved in bringing and conducting a private prosecution. The step-by-step approach begins with the laying of the information and the subsequent issuing of the summons, followed by the investigation process and the gathering of evidence through to the trial process and procedure itself. In addition the work includes the important related aspects of disclosure, costs and confiscation. Extensive use of case law and reference to related literature and statutes, as well as the inclusion of precedents, ensures a comprehensive single source for both the less experienced practitioner taking their first steps into private prosecutions and for the more experienced practitioner as a handy reference source for court.

Despite increasing interest both in the nativisation of 'world' Englishes and in the study of 'lesser-known' varieties, some English-speaking areas are still entirely unexplored. One such area is Micronesia. English became a/the official language of the various Micronesian islands between 1892 and 1945, yet, beyond a couple of recent papers, there have been no published accounts whatsoever of the linguistic structure or sociolinguistic history of these territories. This book, based on empirical analyses of large corpora of spoken data from Palau, Guam, Saipan, Kosrae, Nauru, Kiribati and the Marshall Islands, examines both the structure -phonology, morphosyntax, lexis, discourse - as well as the sociolinguistic history and status of English in each territory. Each chapter takes into account possible substrate influence on these emerging Englishes, as well as contextualising the position of English with respect to other colonial and immigrant languages. The book also contains a chapter on the use of English in pre-20th century Micronesia - when it was used across the islands by whalers, beachcombers and missionaries - as well as a chapter examining the similarities and differences across the different new Micronesian Englishes.

Not since Antonia Fraser's major biography (1975) has there been a life of Cromwell so sympathetic to its subject and based on so many years of scholarship and research. As General Editor for Oxford University Press of the five-volume edition of all the recorded words (writings and recorded speech acts) of Oliver Cromwell, Professor Morrill is perfectly equipped to write this biography. He argues that Cromwell has been seriously misinterpreted by historians, not least by left-wing thinkers such as Tony Benn, who claim Cromwell as their own and thus misunderstand the nature of Cromwell's political thought. This was a product of his religious ideas, and, argues the author, in this Cromwell was entirely sincere. After the Siege of Drogheda he murdered 3,000 people and Catholic clergy and the religious were killed on sight. He cast a long shadow over Irish history which appears to many to verge on genocide, but with this and the signing of the act of execution of Charles I, Cromwell never doubted that he was doing God's will. Morrill's book sheds exciting new light on Cromwell, both political and religious, and is based on the latest scholarship of the highest quality. Morrill argues against contemporary critics and claims that Cromwell was a man of fundamental sincerity and devotion to high Puritan principles.

Oliver Cromwell is one of the most significant figures in British history - and one of the most misinterpreted. 

In this major new biography, John Morrill argues that Cromwell has been seriously misinterpreted by historians, not least by left-wing thinkers such as Tony Benn, who claim Cromwell as their own and thus misunderstand the nature of Cromwell's political thought, which was in fact a product of his religious ideas. And in this, asserts Morrill, Cromwell was entirely sincere.

With new research and insight, this exploration of his life reveals a man who never doubted that he was doing God's will - which included murdering over 3,000 people, among them Catholic clergy, after the Siege of Drogheda, ordering the religious killed on sight, and signing Charles I's execution order. Morrill also looks at the long shadow Cromwell cast over Irish history, with policies that have been accused of verging on genocide. 

He sheds exciting new light on Cromwell, both political and religious, with analysis that is based on the latest scholarship of the highest quality, arguing against contemporary critics and claiming that Cromwell was a man of fundamental sincerity and devotion to high Puritan principles.

From the bestselling author of Meetings With Remarkable Manuscripts, a captivating account of the last surviving relic of Thomas BecketThe assassination of Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on 29 December 1170 is one of the most famous events in European history. It inspired the largest pilgrim site in medieval Europe and many works of literature from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales to T. S. Eliot's Murder in the Cathedral and Anouilh's Becket. In a brilliant piece of historical detective work, Christopher de Hamel here identifies the only surviving relic from Becket's shrine: the Anglo-Saxon Psalter which he cherished throughout his time as Archbishop of Canterbury, and which he may even have been holding when he was murdered. Beautifully illustrated and published to coincide with the 850th anniversary of the death of Thomas Becket, this is an exciting rediscovery of one of the most evocative artefacts of medieval England.

Historically the law of tort has offered limited protection for personal privacy however, since the enactment of the Human Rights Act 1998 this branch of the law of tort has seen rapid development. This book analyses the extent to which the law of tort currently affords protection against invasions of personal privacy and the remedies that are available. The book considers tort law and privacy in other common law jurisdictions including the US, Australia and New Zealand. It then goes on to explore the potential for a common law tort to be developed which would be capable of offering broader protection for personal privacy and its prospects for statutory codification.

Historically the law of tort has offered limited protection for personal privacy using a patchwork of established torts such as private nuisance and battery. Until recently no tort was recognised in English law which was exclusively concerned with protecting what could properly be described as a ‘privacy interest.’ However, since the enactment of the Human Rights Act 1998 which brought about the incorporation into domestic law of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) this is a branch of the law of tort which has seen rapid development, with the judiciary developing a tort of ‘misuse of private information’ which is now capable of preventing and remedying violations of the ‘informational’ aspects of personal privacy. The possibility of introducing a statutory tort of privacy has been considered by a number of review bodies but so far no progress has been made in this area.This book analyses the extent to which the law of tort currently affords protection against invasions of personal privacy and the remedies that are available. The book considers tort law and privacy in other common law jurisdictions including the US, Australia and New Zealand where debates concerning the legal protection of personal privacy are also taking place. It then goes on to explore the potential for a common law tort to be developed which would be capable of offering broader protection for personal privacy and its prospects for statutory codification.
