Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This is an attempt to combine Soviet and Western views on the life of Lev Davidovich, or Leon Trotsky. Born in 1879 and assassinated by an agent of Stalin in 1940, he was Lenin's closest collaborator in the October Revolution of 1917 and its immediate aftermath. Following the triumph of Stalin in the 1930s, there was a systematic attempt to eliminate Trotsky's name from the history books. Now, with glasnost and a revolution in Soviet historiography, new material has been emerging from the Soviet archives. This book represents an attempt by Soviet scholars and Western academics to rescue Trotsky from "non-person" status, to re-assess his personality, examine his role in the Revolution and the civil war, and to reconsider the origins of his opposition to Stalinism. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good Plus. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 2000, xii, 292pp. B&W illustrations. The book and unclipped dust jacket are both in very good condition with no inscriptions. "Dr. Grant G. Simpson is widely regarded as one of the leading Scottish medievalists of his generation, and the affection in which he is held is second to none. A Festschrift is traditionally a collection of essays on varied and not always related topics. This one is quite different, concentrating on developments and directions in Scottish medieval and early modern history (to c. 1603) during Grant Simpson's career. This is especially relevant since Grant Simpson is associated with a distinguished group of scholars whose work during this period ensured that Scottish history not only survived as a discipline but began to claim parity of status with the history of any other small country. Grant Simpson's contribution to Scottish history is to its future just as much as its past: nearly everyone asked to contribute to this volume is substantially younger than he is. The majority have been his students or were examined by him. Among the first cohort of undergraduates he encountered at Aberdeen was one of the contributors to this volume, Michael Lynch. Five of the twelve Aberdeen postgraduates he supervised are contributors: Alexander Stevenson (on Bruges), Cynthia Neville (on the earldom of Strathearn), Sonja Cameron (on Sir James Douglas), Alastair Macdonald (on warring nobles), and Jane Thomas (on the craftsmen of Elgin).".

"The themes developed at the conference concerned a variety of fissures in British society at that time - which historical research is now identifying, and which the questioning of 'Britishness' today makes all the more relevant. The Aberdeen conference from which These Fissured Isles derives began with reflections on the state of historical knowledge about the rebellions of the United Irishmen and (to a lesser extent) the United Scotsman, in 1798, as it was revealed by the bi-centenary commemorations the year before, particularly in the Irish Republic and the USA. The conference went on to hear papers on a number of related topics, culminating with an in-depth examination of recent work on Chartism. These Fissured Isles is based in part on the papers delivered at the conference, in part on the further reflections of some of the scholars who participated, and in part on specially commissioned papers. The essays cover five main themes: Ireland, Scotland and the British Question; The Horizons of Women; Conservatism and Culture in Scotland; Chartism Revisited, and The Past, the Present and the People. Together they form a historical enterprise highly relevant to the present and to all those concerned with the future of Britain and Ireland in the age of New Labour, the Peace process and the New Europe, and at a time when soaring, present-centred optimisms about all three are constantly coming up against obstacles which only a historically-informed consciousness can properly understand."

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1977 Grant Simpson published a seminal article in the Scottish Historical Review: which asked if 'anything conceivably new can be said about a document so well known in Scotland as the Declaration of Arbroath ' The contributors to this volume demonstrate that there can. The text of the Declaration, written in 1320, followed closely an Irish prototype and was structured in the fashion that was expected at the papal court, where the letter was sent. It drew heavily on political ideologies and legal concepts with which English and continental intellectuals were familiar. And it was brought to papal attention through diplomatic means and practices which were commonly understood across Europe. Although the Declaration disappeared from political discourse in the centuries which immediately followed its dispatch, its rediscovery from the later seventeenth century is traced in hitherto unprecedented depth. Its relevance was not just to Scotland. The question of whether it influenced the American Declaration of Independence has oft been mooted but is here closely investigated. Today the Declaration remains a controversial document, inspirational to many, misappropriated by others, and even feared by some.
