Esclaus a Empúries. Els batallons disciplinaris de treballadors a les excavacions entre 1940 i 1942
En acabar la Guerra Civil, els vencedors van potenciar els batallons disciplinaris de treballadors per reprimir els presoners de guerra i els exiliats que tornaren poc després. Sota el control implacable de l’exèrcit i en benefici de l’Estat, milers de persones es van sotmetre a duríssimes condicions d’esclavatge en obres de caràcter civil i militar, i també en corporacions provincials, locals i empreses privades. Entre els anys 1940 i 1942, dues d’aquestes unitats —els batallons 71 i 46— van treballar en el jaciment d’Empúries, unes excavacions arqueològiques que foren determinants per a la construcció del relat històric al servei del poder. A partir dels testimonis d’alguns presoners i la recerca de documentació en diversos arxius de Madrid, Barcelona, Salamanca, Guadalajara i Àvila, aquest llibre explica un episodi de la història significatiu i poc conegut que mostra la repressió franquista a Catalunya, però també la connivència amb els fets d’amplis sectors de la política, la intel·lectualitat i la societat catalanes, els quals van sumar-se —de vegades amb entusiasme— a les estratègies de càstig de la dictadura.

Rome and the north-western Mediterranean
To date, Rome’s intervention to the West from the mid-second century BC has not really been looked at with any sense of overview. Instead, there has been an unconnected series of micro-regional studies looking at particular areas, from the river Ebro in Spain round to Italy on the land front, and from the Balearic Islands to Corsica, Sardinia and even Sicily as regards the seaborne aspect. In contrast, the aim of this volume is to push the historical and archaeological debates about Rome’s expansion beyond these traditional geographical boundaries and the discipline-based previous research. The entire north-western Mediterranean is treated as a micro-region and is addressed using various...
A Twist in the Tail
A Twist in the Tail takes readers on a tantalising voyage through European and American gastronomic history, following the trail of a small but mighty fish: the anchovy. Whether in ubiquitous Roman garum, mass-produced British condiments, elaborate French haute cuisine or modern Spanish tapas, anchovies have been enhancing the flavour of many dishes for thousands of years. Yet, depending upon the time and place—and who was eating them—they have also been disdained as worthless little fish, deemed too small, bony and inconsequential for popular or elite consumption. From Western Europe to the USA, Christopher Beckman shows how the evolving and ambiguous position of anchovies provides surprising insights into the relationship between food, class and status throughout history. Drawing on cookbooks, literature and art, this is the hidden story of the diminutive anchovy, and its outsized role in shaping the West’s cuisine.
