Robert W. Jones A cultural history of the medieval sword
power, piety, and play
In deze studie wordt het zwaard verder bekeken dan zijn functionele rol als hulpmiddel om te doden, en wordt beschouwd als een cultureel artefact en is er aandacht voor de bredere betekenis die het had voor de drager ervan.

Patrick Griffin The age of Atlantic Revolution
the fall and rise of a connected world
"The Age of Atlantic Revolution was a defining moment in western history. Our understanding of rights, of what makes the individual an individual, of how to define a citizen versus a subject, of what states should or should not do, of how labor, politics, and trade would be organized, of the relationship between the church and the state, and of our attachment to the nation all derive from this period (c. 1750-1850). Historian Patrick Griffin shows that the Age of Atlantic Revolution was rooted in...

L. Annaeus Seneca How to do the right thing
an ancient guide to treating people fairly
"It doesn't take long after learning to speak for children to utter the cry, "That's not fair!" That familiar exclamation seems to emerge from a primal human sense: you know how you deserve to be treated, and you know that you have not been treated that way-you've been given a raw deal, you've not been done right by. In this volume for our Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers series, Robert Kaster explores how we treat others at the everyday, person-to-person level, taking as his source the ethical...
