Beaker Burials in Britain and North-West Europe 2600-1800 BC provides a comprehensive account of the current interpretations of Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age Beaker burials, monuments and their social and cultural contexts in Britain, Ireland and the maritime zone of North-West Europe, from Brittany to Jutland.Burials of the Beaker people have long held a special place in the European imagination because of their highly distinctive and exotic material culture associations, their connection with the spread of copper metallurgy, striking modes of funerary display, and apparent rapidity with which these spread across western and central Europe through population movement, exchange and indigenous adoption. The impact of Beaker people's funerary practices, technologies, social ideals and cosmologies on 'native' communities led to diverse and often radical transformations in wider cultural repertoires, political organizations and social and economic life.Beaker Burials in Britain and North-West Europe 2600-1800 BC considers the Beaker people's funerary record in context of the full range of interpretive frameworks, with comparative reference to wider sources of evidence. There is a particular focus on ethnographic description and interpretation of death ritual, funerary architecture and the social, political, religious and cosmological significance of burials, body treatment and monumentality. A thematic structure allows for the coverage of key topics such as cultural geography and interaction, funerary ritual, monuments and landscape, cultural and social identities, personhood, power and politics, death and living society, and cultural change and history.

A highly illustrated history of the Cold War operations of the submarines of the Royal Navy from 1948 to 1990.

A highly illustrated history of the Cold War operations of the submarines of the Royal Navy from 1948 to 1990.

The Cold War was a period of intense activity for submarines of the Royal Navy, with many hair-raising incidents involving Soviet vessels. They were engaged in frequent hazardous surveillance patrols investigating Soviet submarines and surface warships and their operational tactics, and trailing Soviet strategic submarines (SSBNs), as well as conducting British deterrent SSBN patrols and protecting those patrols using attack submarines (SSNs). There were also dangerous patrols which trialled submarine operation under the Arctic ice-cap. In addition to these activities there were operations in other conflicts and war theatres including the Falklands War, the Suez campaign, the Northern Ireland Troubles, and the Indonesian Confrontation.

Naval history expert Dr Paul Brown presents the full history of the Royal Navy in this pivotal era in a fully illustrated volume, containing stunning black-and-white and colour images, technical drawings and maps. He has interviewed Cold War-era submarine commanders and engineers, submitted Freedom of Information requests, and trawled the National Archives, the archives of the Royal Navy Submarine Museum and Imperial War Museums, as well as been though personal accounts of the senior officers and many secondary sources, to bring to light new information that is published here for the first time.

Magic Rays of Light is an original and ambitious history of the largely unknown early years of television in Britain. A detailed cultural study of the first demonstrations, of the extensive experimental broadcasts between 1928 and 1935, and of the BBC's richly varied daily service starting in November 1936 from Alexandra Palace, the book overturns the popular mis-conception that television in Britain effectively began with Elizabeth II's Coronation in 1953. In tracing this history, John Wyver chronicles the process by which a technology became a medium. He argues that much of what that television as we knew it in the late twentieth century was created within the fluid and at times unstable forms of the interwar medium. Most fundamentally the basics of television's screen language and grammar were developed. As this emerged, television drama flourished in the staging of more than 400 plays, from Shakespeare and Agatha Christie to Pirandello and P.G. Wodehouse, starring luminaries including Laurence Olivier, Sybil Thorndike and Peggy Ashcroft. Outside broadcasts of state occasions, and of Wimbledon and Test matches, were pioneered, along with transmissions of the Derby (from 1931 onwards) and the FA Cup Final. Light entertainment formats, quiz shows and the direct ancestor of countless magazine programmes were devised, alongside ambitious presentations of classical ballet and grand opera. As a striking counterpoint to this story, Magic Rays of Light also celebrates the inchoate, indeterminate nature of interwar television. In certain key ways, from the first imaginaries and sci-fi visions of television, and in aspects of how it was made, of what was produced and how this was seen, early television was entirely distinct from what the medium later became. The book reveals television's forgotten pasts and unrealised futures, including the low resolution, vertical format transmissions of John Logie Baird's first systems, and the live, large-screen electronic projection systems known as 'cinema television'. Relaying sports events and pageantry to cinemas, this pre-war sensation was seen by the BBC as a serious threat to its monopoly. By attending closely to the transmissions of the first fifteen years, to the emerging medium's industrial context, and to its intermedial links with radio, theatre, cinema, music hall, sport and more, Magic Rays of Light illuminates television's place in the cultural and social histories of Britain between the wars.

Iron Age Lives provides the first integrated academic treatment of the Iron Age of Britain and Ireland. After considering the social changes that marked the end of the Later Bronze Age, it examines the environmental, economic, demographic and cultural factors that underpinned the emergence of the fragmented and regionalised societies of the Early Iron Age. Subsequent chapters trace the development of increasingly complex and distinctive social forms across Britain and Ireland. Central themes that cut across the book's broadly chronological structure include: the creation and expression of individual and collective identities; the social role of art and religion; changing gender roles; technological innovation, including iron-working and rotary technology; the complex and varied treatments of the dead; gift-giving, trade and exchange; and the role of conflict and violence.

Subsequent chapters trace the development of increasingly complex and distinctive social forms across Britain and Ireland including the hillfort societies of southern England and the Welsh Marches; village communities of the Upper Thames Valley; the dense settlement landscapes, cemeteries and chariot burials of East Yorkshire; the hillfort communities of Northumbria and south-east Scotland; the broch-building societies of Atlantic Scotland; and the ritual landscapes of Iron Age IrelandCentral themes that cut across the book’s broadly chronological structure include: the creation and expression of individual and collective identities; the social role of art and religion; changing gender roles; technological innovation, including iron-working and rotary technology; the complex and varied treatments of the dead; gift-giving, trade and exchange; and the role of conflict and violence. The text is supported throughout by box features expanding on individual sites, objects, themes or debates and the book focuses, where appropriate, on fresh and exciting new finds and discoveries from the last few years including, for example, the well-preserved bog bodies from eastern Ireland, recently excavated chariot burials from Newbridge and Ferry Fryston, Iron Age roads from East Anglia, the Midlands and Ireland, musical instruments from High Pasture Cave in Skye and Cnip in Lewis, the shrine containing gold torcs from Stirlingshire, and the impact of AMS dating on the chronologies of Iron Age art and burial.

Secrets of the Starlit Sea

A master forger. A hidden fortune. A dangerous game of cat and mouse... In post-war Flanders, Adelais de Wolf's family is slowly, inexplicably, falling apart: her mother evermore lost to religious devotion, her father to alcohol. But with the death of a beloved uncle, Adelais finds herself in receipt of an unexpected legacy: a shuttered house in a rundown district and its contents - contents that hold the promise of independence and wealth. All that is required is application, nerve, and a willingness to break the law. Adelais stifles her doubts and her fortunes are transformed. But with her rise comes complications: her victimless crimes may not be as victimless as she supposed. Nor has she counted on the singular fanaticism of Major de Smet of the Federal Gendarmerie, a brutal detective who never forgives and never forgets. Embroiled in a game that has gone on too long, will Adelais find the cost of her fortunes too high?
