First published in 1969, Conflict and Stability in Fifteenth-Century England is a study of a much neglected and misinterpreted century of English history-the century of the Wars of the Roses which, the author shows, had only a comparatively small effect on English life.

This is a unique study of the relationship between religious ritual and ceremonial dining. Blunt's work is based on primary sources documenting the daily running of the king's household and will be of interest to scholars researching the court of Charles I and its material culture as well as the religious and political history of his reign.

Heresy is a brilliant book' - The Times 'Enthralling . . . an absolute pleasure to read' - The Sunday Telegraph ?In the beginning was the Word,' says the Gospel of John. This sentence - and the words of all four gospels - is central to the teachings of the Christian Church and has shaped Western art, literature and language, and the Western mind. Yet in the years after the death of Christ there was not merely one word, nor any consensus as to who Jesus was or why he had mattered. There were many different Jesuses, among them the aggressive Jesus who scorned his parents and crippled those who opposed him, the Jesus who sold his twin into slavery and the Jesus who had someone crucified in his stead. Moreover, in the early years of the first millennium there were many other saviours, many sons of gods who healed the sick and cured the lame. But as Christianity spread, they were pronounced unacceptable - even heretical - and they faded from view. Now, in Heresy, Catherine Nixey tells their extraordinary story, one of contingency, chance and plurality. It is a story about what might have been.

From the author of The Darkening Age, Heresy is perfect for readers of Tom Holland, Karen Armstrong, Mary Beard and Bettany Hughes.

This volume explores how Martin Luther's life and teachings reshaped and redefined masculinity during the Reformation, offering a more nuanced portrayal of him as a man grappling with the complexities of fatherhood, marriage, and the battlegrounds of religious controversy.

[Space for endorsements] Coup in Damascus delves into one of the most pivotal yet under-explored moments in Middle Eastern history: the 1949 military coup in Syria, an event which set the stage for revolving door governments and autocracies across the region. At the interdisciplinary crossroad between economics, politics and history, Carl Rihan challenges prevailing narratives that have either focused on Great Power Politics, cloak-and-dagger regional rivalries, or postcolonial dynamics by affirming the central role of cost-calculating, utility-driven political action in a constrained economic context. Bringing neoclassical and Austrian economic thought in contact with Middle East history, the book uncovers how unsound monetary practices, the disruption of historical trade routes, flawed interventionism, and the waning of market dynamics paved the way for military takeovers, political radicalization, and zero-sum games. By reaffirming the centrality of human action in its objective and praxeological sense, Coup in Damascus offers a fresh perspective on one of the region's most pivotal moments, one which still bares its bitter fruits today.

"This book is international history of the finest quality. It goes beyond the Cold War battle for hearts and minds to say something important about how words and images can reveal or set the contours of a political landscape."—Tony Shaw, coauthor of Hollywood and Israel: A History "Margaret Peacock nimbly shows how Arabic-language radio stations worked in a kind of competitive dialogue in an effort to secure international Arab citizens' loyalty during the Cold War. But the rhetorical world they created became brittle and increasingly disconnected from people's lived experience, finally shattering after the broadcasts falsely claimed victory during the disastrous defeat of the 1967 war."—Andrea L. Stanton, author of This Is Jerusalem Calling: State Radio in Mandate Palestine "Fascinating, important, and timely. Peacock has produced a superb history of the psychological warfare and radio battles that defined—and distorted—the modern Middle East."—James Vaughan, Lecturer in International History, Aberystwyth University "In this dazzling book, Peacock deftly charts the Cold War of international radio propaganda for the hearts and minds of people living in Middle East. She weaves evidence from US, Soviet, British, and Arab sources to map the interplay of lies, selective truths, exaggerations, and wishful thinking that eddied around Arab listeners. Her remarkable study serves as a lesson for our own media-buffeted era, pointing to the price of broken illusions: a stage set for a new generation of extreme propaganda, in this case religious. This is a worthy successor to her excellent study of children in Soviet and American Cold War propaganda and establishes Peacock as a major figure in the field of propaganda history."—Nicholas J. Cull, author of The Cold War and the United States Information Agency: American Propaganda and Public Diplomacy, 1945–1989

On June 8, 1967, Egypt's most famous radio broadcaster, Ahmed Said, reported that Egyptian, Syrian, and Jordanian forces had defeated the Israeli army in the Sinai, had hobbled their British and US allies, and were liberating Palestine. It was a lie. &nbsp; For the rest of his life, populations in the Middle East vilified Said for his duplicity. However, the truth was that, by 1967, all the world's major broadcasters to the Middle East were dissimulating on the air. For two decades, British, Soviet, American, and Egyptian radio voices created an audio world characterized by deceit and betrayal. In this important and timely book, Margaret Peacock traces the history of deception and propaganda in Middle Eastern international radio. Peacock makes the compelling argument that this betrayal contributed to the loss of faith in Western and secular state-led political solutions for many in the Arab world, laying the groundwork for the rise of political Islam.

An epic new history of Ancient China told through the prism of a dozen extraordinary tombsThe three millennia up to the establishment of the first imperial Qin dynasty in 221 BC cemented many of the distinctive elements of Chinese civilisation still in place today: an extraordinarily challenging geography and environment, formidable infrastructure, a society based on the strict hierarchy of the family, a shared written script of characters, a cuisine founded on rice and millet, a material culture of ceramics, bronze, silk and jade, and a unique concept of the universe, in which ancestors continue to exist alongside the living. Records of these early achievements, and their diverse and unexpected expressions, often lie not in written history, but in how people marked the end of their lives: their dwellings for the afterlife. Tombs, and the treasures within them, are almost the only artefacts to survive from Ancient China; their scale and sophistication rivals their equivalents in Ancient Egypt. Jessica Rawson, one of the most eminent Western scholars of China, explores twelve grand tombs - each from a specific historical moment and place - showing how they reveal wider political, dynastic and cultural developments, culminating in the lavish ambition of the First Emperor's monument, guarded by his army of terracotta warriors. Beautifully illustrated and drawing on the latest archaeological discoveries, Life and Afterlife in Ancient China illuminates a constellation of beliefs about life and death very different from our own and provides a remarkable new perspective on one of the oldest civilisations in the world.
