In many respects, cancer exemplifies the flexibility of early modern medical thought, which managed to accommodate, seemingly without friction, the notion that cancer was a disease with humoral origins alongside the conviction that the malady was in some sense ontologically indep…

An Unspecific Dog: Artifacts of This Late Stage in History
A nationwide survey conducted by an institute for philosophical research has determined that nihilists, on the whole, have good intentions. In An Unspecific Dog, Joshua Rothes collects 150 short texts as fables for our time, a veritable catalog of agnotology, a series of situations and propositions that revel in the dark irony at the root of our early-twenty-first-century existence. A man rea…

An Overview of the Pre-suppression Society of Jesus in SpainÂ
In An Overview of the Pre-suppression Society of Jesus in Spain, Patricia W. Manning offers a survey of the Society of Jesus in Spain from its origins in Ignatius of Loyola's early preaching to the aftereffects of its expulsion.

An Annotated Guide to Tactics
The philosophy on which the Marine Corps' seminal warfighting doctrine is based rests on a tradition of professional military scholarship that reaches back to Carl von Clausewitz's treatise On War. Clausewitz's lesser-known and often-misunderstood Guide to Tactics, republished here for the first time as a standalone English text with critical annotations, serves as the foundation of the Marine …

Art, Play, Labour: the Music Profession in Germany (1850–1960)
Germany is considered a lauded land of music: outstanding composers, celebrated performers and famous orchestras exert great international appeal. Since the 19th century, the foundation of this reputation has been the broad mass of musicians who sat in orchestra pits, played in ensembles for dances or provided the musical background in silent movie theatres. Martin Rempe traces their lives and …

A New Vision for Islamic Pasts and Futures
Karya digital yang inovatif ini mengundang pembaca untuk membayangkan Islam secara baru. Melampaui pendekatan teologis, nativis, dan orientalis konvensional, Shahzad Bashir melepaskan Islam dari identifikasi geografis dengan Timur Tengah, artikulasi melalui otoritas laki-laki saja, dan asumsi bahwa ekspresi pramodern lebih otentik Islami daripada yang modern. Berfokus pada waktu sebagai konstru…
