Anthem Americans in Revolutionary Russia

This is the first republication of Rheta Child Dorr's book Inside the Russian Revolution (Macmillan, 1917) that depicts the overthrow of the tsar as a positive, democratic move with hope of a Russia following the American path to constitutional democracy.

Inside the Russian Revolution

Nafeesa T. Nichols analyzes how racialized and gendered spaces are presented in post-apartheid South African literature. Through the examination of four novels, Kopano Matlwa's Coconut (2007), Zukiswa Wanner's The Madams (2006), Niq Mhlongo's After Tears (2007), and Kgebetli Moele's Room 207 (2006), Popular Spaces in Post-Apartheid Literature highlights the interconnections between space, race, gender, and popular culture within the post-apartheid South Africa. Nichols not only explores how post-1994 literature attempts to represent the realities of the post-apartheid condition, but also reveals the innovative and radical contributions that these young authors of the early twenty-first century made within the literary world. This book mediates the dynamics and complexities of space in connection to race and gender, exemplifies the challenge of working with and in violent masculinist textual spaces, and conceptualizes the popular in connection with class, race, and gender struggles. Drawing on an interdisciplinary mix of Black feminist theory, feminist geographical perspectives, and spatial theory, Nichols provides a close reading of each of the selected texts, offering broader insights into the how Black subjects navigate various spaces of oppression. Through these novels, she shows how we are able to imagine the possibilities of liberatory spaces, celebrate local knowledge, creativity, the popular, and, most importantly, the beauty and resistance found in the everyday. In the end, this book contributes to the academic conversations that continue to take place surrounding gender, space, literature, and liberation in South Africa.

"König der Welt ist eines der anregendsten und unterhaltsamsten Werke über europäische Geschichte, das seit langem erschienen ist.' Wall Street JournalLudwig XIV., das meinte bisher: Absolutismus, Zentralismus, "Der Staat bin ich".&nbsp;Seine Regentschaft steht für die Pracht von Versailles, für höfische Intrigen und Machtspiele. Philip Mansel zeigt uns eine neue Seite des Sonnenkönigs: einen Herrscher, dessen Interessen und Ambitionen weit über sein Heimatland hinausreichten. Der Frankreichs Grenzen nicht nur in die Niederlande und Deutschland ausdehnte, sondern auch Kolonien in Amerika, Afrika und Indien errichtete, und dessen Regierungsstil von Brunswick bis Württemberg zahlreiche Nachahmer fand. Das Deutschland des ausgehenden 17. Jahrhunderts ist nur zu verstehen, wenn man Ludwigs diplomatische Schachzüge kennt.&nbsp;Mansels farbig geschriebene Biografie liefert den Schlüssel dazu. &nbsp;
