An exploration of pilgrimage, through nineteen breath-taking sites across the globe

Hurlock Kathryn: Holy Places / B

Holy Places

How Pilgrimage Changed the World

Reimagining Law and Justice

The 1950s was a decade of considerable legal development in England and Wales, despite often being regarded as very conservative in contrast to the more radical 1960s and 1970s. This collection illustrates the breadth of those developments, providing a sociolegal perspective on a range of topics across criminal, property, family, commercial, environmental and public law, and legal education. It examines the social, political and economic context of the decade to reveal how legal developments in the 1950s have much greater significance than has generally been acknowledged to date. Drawing on case studies from the Great London Smog in 1952, the treatment of women in the Wolfenden Report and divorce law reform, to the takeover battle for the Savoy Hotel in 1953, law on the radio and more, the chapters throw new light on current debates about the relationship between law and issues of justice, inclusion and equality in different spheres of activity.Written for historians and legal specialists alike, this book explores the stories behind the laws in this neglected decade. In revealing the historical context, arguments and controversies raised at the time and the different perspectives of the parties involved, it offers a greater understanding of why we have the law we have now and of these issues as they continue to be played out in the early twenty-first century.

The Pact

Climates – Cultures – Contexts

Der Idylle wird traditionell der Blick in ein (vergangenes) ideales oder fiktives Goldenes Zeitalter zugeschrieben. Nicht nur in der Literaturgeschichte, sondern auch in aktuellen Analysen arkadisch konfigurierter Texte entsteht daher oft der ernüchternde Eindruck, die Idylle sei auf Eskapismus und Flucht aus dem Alltag festgelegt. Die Beiträger*innen räumen mit diesem Vorurteil auf und zeigen, warum es sich lohnt, gerade die Idyllen zu beleuchten, die diesem regressiven Moment nicht folgen. Dazu arbeiten sie die produktiven Impulse dieser Zukunftsentwürfe für aktuelle ökologische, politische und soziale Krisen heraus und analysieren progressive Idyllen in unterschiedlichen Medien.

Zukunftsentwürfe und futurische Impulse in Literatur und Medien der Gegenwart

Essential Essays for Reckoning with and Reimagining Faith

Braving the Truth

'This fascinating intellectual history of imagined paradises takes us from Thomas More to Ursula K Le Guin' (Guardian) Utopia is not somewhere you can go. But neither is it an idle fantasy. It runs through history and literature from Plato to Thomas More, Margaret Cavendish to Ursula Le Guin. Utopia, this book shows, was for them a tool for exploring the horizons of thought, asking the unaskable and challenging entrenched assumptions about how society has to be. The Uses of Utopia travels not only to the remote islands, parallel realities and distant planets where this played out, but also the places where those inspired by visions of perfection tried to establish them, from the egalitarian communities built in colonial Mexico to the novelist Étienne Cabet's disastrous attempt to realize socialism on the Mississippi. We see the groundbreaking ideas, about liberty and the law, sex and the sexes, work and wealth, that imagining an ideal society made possible. We hear the voices of radicals of many kinds talking freely to each other - and also to us. Here, in our imperfect world, how will you use utopia?

Kurzweiliges

Ob 'Kippcouch', 'Schneckenbecker', 'Kellerassel', 'Fliegender Holländer', 'Gockel', 'Knoblauch Ede' oder 'Rolli' - Spitznamen sind oft derb, zeigen aber auch Vertrautheit - wie in einer guten, intakten Familie. In die der Leipziger Straßenbahnfahrerinnen und ¿fahrer wurde der Autor Mitte der 1970er-Jahre aufgenommen, als 'Karussell-Muske'.
In diesem Buch entfacht er ein Feuerwerk der Erinnerungen, zugleich eine Geschichte des wichtigsten Verkehrsunternehmens der Messestadt in den letzten über 50 Jahren. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Menschen, die mit Hingabe, größter Disziplin, Pünktlichkeit und Einsatzbereitschaft ihre Fahrgäste tagtäglich durch Leipzig fuhren - keine Heldentaten und aus einer Welt von gestern, aber unterhaltsam, flott und warmherzig erzählt.

'Your book is the "really good book. Just one" that Roger Butler would have wanted' - Sir Ian McKellen 'Absorbing and often very moving' - Peter Parker, Spectator 'Sir, we are homosexuals . . .' So began the letter penned by Roger Butler and sent to several British newspaper editors - some of whom were so shocked they thought it was a hoax - in June 1960. Writing such a letter seven years before the decriminalisation of homosexuality was a radical and dangerous move. It was a risk that set a major milestone in the fight for gay rights - one that has been almost entirely forgotten. This is the story of the first man to come out voluntarily, using his own name, to the entire British public, a decade before activists started petitioning gay people everywhere to 'come out proud'. Taking us through a criminalised underworld of gay pubs, parties and activist meetings, The Light of Day charts how Roger helped bring about the legalisation of homosexuality, but soon found himself marginalised from the movement he kickstarted after losing his sight in his early 30s. Enter Christopher - a student asked to visit and read to an old, blind man at the beginning of a new century. As their intergenerational friendship bloomed, Roger came to trust Christopher with his most precious possession: memoirs of his revolutionary past, locked away in his home. After Roger's death, Christopher opened a series of unsent letters, left in a pink folder, addressed to him. They contained Roger's final wish, for Christopher finally to bring his remarkable, hidden story into the light of day. 'Remarkable . . . a splendidly sprawling part biography, part autobiography, part history and part social commentary . . . the result, a true account, benefits greatly from a lightness, a candour untethered to any agenda or argument' - Times Literary Supplement 'Faithfully and beautifully told' - Mail on Sunday

The Light of Day

2025 AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF PUBLISHERS PROSE AWARDS WINNER: EUROPEAN HISTORY In June 1609, two judges left Bordeaux for a territory at the very edge of their jurisdiction, a Basque-speaking province on the Atlantic coast called the Pays de Labourd. In four months, they executed up to 80 women and men for the crime of witchcraft, causing a wave of suspects to flee into Spain and sparking terror there. Witnesses, many of them children, described lurid tales of cannibalism, vampirism, and demonic sex. One of the judges, Pierre de Lancre, published a sensationalist account of this diabolical netherworld. With other accounts seemingly destroyed, this witch-hunt - France's largest - has always been seen through de Lancre's eyes. The narrative, re-told over the centuries, is that of a witch-hunt caused by a bigoted outsider. Newly discovered evidence paints a very different, still darker picture, revealing a secret history underneath de Lancre's well-known tale. Far from an outside imposition, witchcraft was a home-grown problem. Panic had been building up over a number of years and the region was fractured by factionalism and a struggle over scarce resources. The Basque Witch-Hunt reveals that de Lancre was no outsider; he was a local partisan, married into the Basque nobility. Living at the Franco-Spanish border, the Basques were victims of geography. Geo-politics caused a local conflict which made the witch-hunt inevitable. The same forces eventually sent thousands of religious refugees from Spain to France where they, in turn, became new objects of popular fear and anger. The Basque witch-hunt is justly infamous. This book shows that almost everything historians thought they knew about it is wrong.

A 'musical and moving' (Washington Post) meditation on the colour blue and its role in Black history and culture Throughout history, the concept of Blackness has been remarkably intertwined with another color: blue. In daily life, it is evoked in countless ways. Blue skies and blue water offer hope for a life beyond the current conditions. But blue is also the color of deep melancholy and heartache, echoing Louis Armstrong's question, "What did I do to be so Black and blue?" In Black in Blues, celebrated author Imani Perry uses the world's favorite color as a springboard for a riveting emotional, cultural, and spiritual journey-an examination of race and Blackness that transcends politics or ideology. Drawing deeply from her own life as well as from art and history, Perry traces both blue and Blackness from their earliest roots to their many embodiments of contemporary culture: The dyed indigo cloths of West Africa that were traded for human life in the 16th century. The mixture of awe and aversion in the old-fashioned characterization of dark-skinned people as "Blue Black". The fundamentally American art form of blues music, sitting at the crossroads of pain and pleasure. The blue flowers she plants in memory of a loved one. Attuned to both the harrowing and the sublime aspects of the human experience, Black in Blues is a poignant, spellbinding, and utterly original work from one of our greatest thinkers.
