English | ISBN: 0231209029 | 2023 | 424 pages | PDF | 6 MB
Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken language in the world today. In China, a country with a vast array of regional and local vernaculars, how was this "common language" forged? How did people learn to speak Mandarin? And what does a focus on speech instead of script reveal about Chinese language and history?

Free Download Victor Wallace Germains, "Kitchener Armiesthe Story of a National Achievement 1914-18"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1781519676 | PDF | pages: 324 | 14.5 mb
The fierce image of the pointing finger of Lord Kitchener, sternly summoning Britain's youth to arms in 1914, is emblematic of the patriotic spirit that saw millions volunteer to answer their country's call. This book, originally published in 1930, tells the story of what became the 'New Armies' , including the famous 'Pals' battalions, based on towns and factories of the industrial north. These men, after training, received their tragic blooding on the Somme in July 1916. Kitchener, successful Imperial commander turned War Minister and national icon, was one of the few who saw at the start of the war that the struggle would be a long one, and that Britain's 100,000 strong professional army did not have the numbers to sustain such a protracted struggle. The equipping, training and organising of armies ten times that number was a mammoth task whose successful accomplishment is well told in this valuable and fascinating book, a must for all Great War fans.

Free Download E. Konstantinidi-syvridi, "The Mycenaean Collection of Ivory Combs at the National Archaeological Museum, Athens "
English | ISBN: 9042948906 | 2022 | 77 pages | PDF | 13 MB
Ivory combs of the Late Bronze Age Aegean have not gained the proper attention so far, despite the fact that they belong, together with the pins and pyxis fashioned by the same material, to prestigious toiletry sets documented in the wider area of the Eastern Mediterranean. Although they never became an indispensable accessory for the Mycenaeans, ivory combs indicate prosperity and high status for the male and female burials they furnished, from the exquisite gold-sheathed specimens of Grave Circle A at Mycenae to the later simple ones of the warrior burials in Achaea. The corpus of the 83 Mycenaean combs held at the National Archaeological Museum is the largest of the kind, with specimens covering almost all the Peloponnese and part of Attica, ranging in date from Late Helladic I to Late Helladic IIIC. Aspects of their technology, typology, iconography, context and social significance discussed in the volume, are expected to shed light on yet another important class of Mycenaean craftsmanship.

Free Download 200 Years of National Philologies: From Romanticism to Globalization
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3476059243 | 450 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB
The 17 contributions in this volume pursue a positioning of the philologies, which - based on the 'Volksgeist' (popular spirit) of the 19th century and the cultural studies of the 20th century - must reposition themselves in the 21st century. The contributions address questions such as: What changes are occurring with increasing globalization? Are national literatures increasingly being absorbed into the so-called "world literature"? The authors come from the fields of Romance studies, German studies and English studies. They deal with topics of literary historiography, canonization, comparative literature, and also questions of the future.

Free Download Fighting for NOW: Diversity and Discord in the National Organization for Women By Kelsy Kretschmer
2019 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 1517903157 | PDF | 2 MB
An unparalleled exploration of NOW's trajectory, from its founding to the present-and its future A new wave of feminist energy has swept the globe since 2016-from women's marches and the #MeToo movement to transwomen's inclusion and exclusion in feminism and participation in institutional politics. Amid all this, an organization declared dead or dying for thirty years-the National Organization for Women-has seen a membership boom. NOW presents an intriguing puzzle for scholars and activists alike. Considered one of the most stable organizations in the feminist movement, it has experienced much conflict and schism. Scholars have long argued that factionalism is the death knell of organizations, yet NOW continues to thrive despite internal conflicts.Fighting for NOW seeks to better understand how bureaucratic structures like NOW's simultaneously provide stability and longevity, while creating space for productive and healthy conflict among members. Kelsy Kretschmer explores these ideas through an examination of conflict in NOW's local chapters, its task forces and committees, and its satellite groups. NOW's history provides evidence for three basic arguments: bureaucratic groups are not insulated from factionalism; they are important sites of creativity and innovation for their movements; and schisms are not inherently bad for movement organizations. Hence, Fighting for NOW is in stark contrast to conventional scholarship, which has conceptualized factionalism as organizational failure. It also provides one of the few book-length explorations of NOW's trajectory, from its founding to the modern context.Scholars will welcome the book's insights that draw on open systems and resource dependency theories, as well as its rethinking of how conflict shapes activist communities. Students will welcome its clear and compelling history of the feminist movement and of how feminist ideas have changed over the past five decades.
