DETAILS: very good dust-jacket with small chip, small tear, light wear, cover price $20.00, attractive copy, near fine yellow cloth, appears unused. COOPER JR, JOHN MILTON. The warrior and the priest: Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Ha…rvard University Press, 1983, 1st printing number line ending in 1, iv, 442pp., . The colossal figures who shaped the politics of industrial America emerge in full scale in this engrossing comparative biography. In both the depth and sophistication of intellect that they brought to politics and in the titanic conflict they waged with each other, Roosevelt and Wilson were, like Hamilton and Jefferson before them, the political architects for an entire century. All previous efforts to treat the philosophies and programs of Roosevelt's New Nationalism and Wilson's New Freedom have been partial and episodic. Now John Milton Cooper reconstructs in parallel lines the entire range of their ideologies and their struggles--their social identification in terms of class, education, and regional roots; the origins and evolution of their political thought; their party leadership roles; and their psychological characters. After tracking the shared identities of young manhood, Cooper explains the conflict of their mature years that developed from opposing philosophies of government. Not until 1912, when Wilson ran for president, did they come together partially and briefly on common practical grounds of reform of the political process and efforts to curb big business in the public interest. Later, foreign policy in particular pitted them in a deeper conflict that consumed the rest of their lives. 9780674947504 ISBN 0674947509.

Many thousands gone: the first two centuries of slavery in North America. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University P…ress, 1998, x, 497pp., . This volume sketches the complex evolution of slavery and black society from the first arrivals in the early 1600s through the American Revolution. Today most Americans, black and white, identify slavery with cotton, the deep South, and the African-American church. But at the beginning of the nineteenth century, after almost two hundred years of African-American life in mainland North America, few slaves grew cotton, lived in the deep South, or embraced Christianity. The author demonstrates that earlier North American slavery had many different forms and meanings that varied over time and from place to place. He shows that slavery and race did not have a fixed character that endured for centuries but were constantly being constructed or reconstructed in response to changing historical circumstances. This work illustrates that complex nature of American slavery, the falsity of many of our stereotypes, and the unique world wrought by the slaves themselves. - CONTENTS: Prologue: Making slavery, making race -- Emergence of Atlantic Creoles in the Chesapeake -- Expansion of Creole society in the North -- Divergent paths in the lowcountry -- Devolution in the lower Mississippi Valley -- The tobacco revolution in the Chesapeake -- Rice revolution in the lowcountry -- Growth and the transformation of black life in the North --Stagnation and transformation in the lower Mississippi Valley -- Slow death of slavery in the North -- The union of African-American society in the upper South -- Fragmentation in the lower South -- Slavery and freedom in the lower Mississippi Valley -- Epilogue: Making race, making slavery. 9780674810921 ISBN 0674810929.

In den Warenkorbpaperback. Zustand: Near Fine. PAPERBACK, attractive copy, near fine, appears little used if at all. BLATMAN, DANIEL. The death marches: the final phase of Nazi genocide. Translated from the Hebrew by Chaya Galai. Cambridge, Mass: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2011, x, 561pp., . From January 1945, in the last months… of the Third Reich, about 250,000 inmates of concentration camps perished on death marches and in countless incidents of mass slaughter. They were murdered with merciless brutality by their SS guards, by army and police units, and often by gangs of civilians as they passed through German and Austrian towns and villages. Even in the bloody annals of the Nazi regime, this final death blow was unique in character and scope. In this first comprehensive attempt to answer the questions raised by this final murderous rampage, the author draws on the testimonies of victims, perpetrators, and bystanders. Hunting through archives throughout the world, Daniel Blatman sets out to explainto the extent that is possiblethe effort invested by mankinds most lethal regime in liquidating the remnants of the enemies of the Aryan race before it abandoned the stage of history. What were the characteristics of this last Nazi genocide? How was it linked to the earlier stages, the slaughter of millions in concentration camps? How did the prevailing chaos help to create the conditions that made the final murderous rampage possible? In its exploration of a topic nearly neglected in the current history of the Shoah, this book offers unusual insight into the workings, and the unraveling, of the Nazi regime. It combines micro-historical accounts of representative massacres with an overall analysis of the collapse of the Third Reich, helping us to understand a seemingly inexplicable chapter in history. - CONTENTS: The concentration camps, 1933-1944 -- The circumstances of evacuation -- Waves of violence and acts of annihilation -- Administrative chaos and the last order -- Murder is rampant -- Dead men marching -- A society in collapse -- Marched toward Gardelegen -- The burning barn -- After the flames -- The murderers. 9780674725980 ISBN 0674725980 26.00.

SCHWARTZ, BENJAMIN I. The world of thought in ancient China - COPY WITH MARKINGS. Cambridg…e, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 1985, 1st printing number line ending in 1, 490pp., . "The center of this prodigious work of scholarship is a fresh examination of the range of Chinese culture thought during the formative period of Chinese culture. Benjamin Schwartz looks at the surviving texts of this period with a particular focus on the range of diversity to be found in them. While emphasizing the problematic and complex nature of this thought he also considers views which stress the unity of Chinese culture. Attention is accorded to pre-Confucian texts, to the evolution of early Confucianism, to Mo-Tzu, to the "Taoists" the legalists, the Ying-Yang school, the "five classics" as well as to intellectual issues which cut across the conventional classification of schools. The main focus is on the high cultural texts, but Mr. Schwartz also explores the question of the relationship of these texts to the vast realm of popular culture." - CONTENTS: Early cultural orientations: Issues and speculations -- Early Chou thought: Continuity and breakthrough -- Confucius: The vision of the Analects -- Mo-tzu's challenge -- The emergence of a common discourse: Some key terms -- The ways of Taoism -- The defense of the Confucian faith: Mencius and Hsun-tzu -- Legalism: The behavioral science -- Correlative cosmology: The "school of Yin and Yang" -- The five classics. 9780674961906 ISBN 0674961900.

In den WarenkorbSimpson, James, 1954-. Burning to read: English fundamentalism and its Reformation opponents. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2007, viii, 346pp., good dust-jacket but torn at bottom of spine, very good green hardcover, previous owner's name. Jacket text: "The evidence is everywhere: fundamentalist re…ading can stir passions and provoke violence that changes the world. Amid such present day conflagrations, this book reminds us of the sources and profound consequences of Christian fundamentalism in the sixteenth century." - "James Simpson focuses on a critical moment in early modern England, specifically the cultural transformation that allowed common folk to read the Bible for the first time. Widely understood and accepted as the grounding moment of liberalism, this was actually, Simpson tells us, the source of fundamentalism, and of different kinds of persecutory violence. His argument overturns a widely held interpretation of sixteenth-century Protestant reading - and a crucial tenet of the liberal tradition." - "After exploring the heroism and achievements of sixteenth-century English Lutherans, particularly William Tyndale, Burning to Read turns to the bad news of the Lutheran Bible. Simpson outlines the dark, dynamic, yet demeaning paradoxes of Lutheran reading: its demands that readers hate the biblical text before they can love it; that they be constantly on the lookout for unreadable signs of their own salvation; that evangelical readers be prepared to repudiate friends and all tradition on the basis of their personal reading of Scripture. Such reading practice provoked violence not only against Lutheranism's stated enemies, as Simpson demonstrates. It also prompted psychological violence and permanent schism within its own adherents." - "The last wave of fundamentalist reading in the West provoked 150 years of violent upheaval. As we approach a second wave, this powerful book alerts us to our peril." - CONTENTS: Hundred years of biblical violence -- Good Bible news -- Salvation, reading, and textual hatred -- The literal sense and predestination -- Bible reading, persecution, and paranoia -- History as error -- Thomas More and textual trust -- The tragic scene of early modern reading.

Lincoln's tragic pragmatism: Lincoln, Douglas, and moral conflict. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2013, xvii, 814pp., . "In 1858, challenger Abraham Lin…coln debated incumbent Stephen Douglas seven times in the race for a U.S. Senate seat from Illinois. More was at stake than slavery in those debates. In Lincoln's Tragic Pragmatism, John Burt contends that the very legitimacy of democratic governance was on the line. In a United States stubbornly divided over ethical issues, the overarching question posed by the Lincoln-Douglas debates has not lost its urgency: Can a liberal political system be used to mediate moral disputes? And if it cannot, is violence inevitable? As they campaigned against each other, both Lincoln and Douglas struggled with how to behave when an ethical conflict as profound as the one over slavery strained the commitment upon which democracy depends--namely, to rule by both consent and principle. This commitment is not easily met, because what conscience demands and what it is able to persuade others to consent to are not always the same. While Lincoln ultimately avoided a politics of morality detached from consent, and Douglas avoided a politics of expediency devoid of morality, neither found a way for liberalism to mediate the conflict of slavery. That some disputes seemed to lie beyond the horizon of deal-making and persuasion and could be settled only by violence revealed democracy's limitations. Burt argues that the unresolvable ironies at the center of liberal politics led Lincoln to discover liberalism's tragic dimension--and ultimately led to war. Burt's conclusions demand reevaluations of Lincoln and Douglas, the Civil War, and democracy itself." - CONTENTS: Introduction : implicitness and moral conflict.
