Editing the Nation's Memory
Europe¿s nation-states emerged from a complex of nineteenth-century developments in which cultural consciousness-raising played a formative role. The nineteenth-century reflection on Europe¿s national identities involved a re-inventory and revalorisation of the vernacular cultural past and, above all, the nation¿s literary heritage. Everywhere in Europe, foundational texts (including medieval epics and romances, ancient laws and chronicles) were retrieved from their obscure repositories. In new, printed editions, prepared according to the emerging academic standards of textual scholarship, they were appropriated, contested and canonised as public symbols of the nation¿s permanence in history. This often neglected, but crucially important Europe-wide process of `editing the nation¿s memory¿ involved old states and emerging nations, large and small countries, metropolitan and peripheral regions; it straddled politics, the academic professionalization of textual scholarship and of the human sciences, and literary taste. This collection of studies by outstanding specialists offers a comparative synopsis on exemplary cases from all corners of the European continent.
Secrets of a Buccaneer-Scholar
Like so many young people, James Bach, the son of the famous author Richard Bach (Jonathan Livingston Seagull) struggled in school. While he excelled in subjects that interested him, he barely passed the courses that didn't. By the time he was sixteen he had dropped out. He taught himself computer programming and software design and started working as a manager at Apple Computers only four years later - and he never looked back. With The Secrets of a Buccaneer Scholar, James shows us how he developed his own education on his own terms, how that unorthodox education brought him success, and how the reader can do it too. In his uniquely pithy and anecdotal style James uses the metaphor of a bu...

The Battle Done
"A first novel is presumably autobiographical in its derivation, more certainly sincere in its intentions, but at best a proving ground for its author- as well as for Sgt. Ben Hoffman who is stationed with a German prisoner-of-war unit in South Carolina. Ben, a practising man of good will and liberal faith has been conditioned to compassion by the fact that he is a Jew, and he is sensitive to discrimination in any form, that of the local plantation owners against the Negro, that of the Nazis under him, and that of his own men. In some scattered sequences here, he is unable to check the aggressive inferiority of a subordinate which leads to a courtmartial; he shows a German that a less stringent surveillance is not necessarily stupidity; and he finds that the battle is by no means done when after a night (quite a night) with Anne, a local girl, he confronts anti-semitism at home.... An insubstantial narrative, this puts no flesh on its concepts and convictions- valid as they may be."--Kirkus
