"Dan Jones has an enviable gift for telling a dramatic story while at the same time inviting us to consider serious topics like liberty and the seeds of representative government." --Antonia Fraser From the New York Times bestselling author of The Plantagenets, a lively, action-packed history of how the Magna Carta came to be -- by the author of Crusaders. The Magna Carta is revered around the world as the founding document of Western liberty. Its principles--even its language--can be found in our Bill of Rights and in the Constitution. But what was this strange document and how did it gain such legendary status? Dan Jones takes us back to the turbulent year of 1215, when, beset by foreign crises and cornered by a growing domestic rebellion, King John reluctantly agreed to fix his seal to a document that would change the course of history. At the time of its creation the Magna Carta was just a peace treaty drafted by a group of rebel barons who were tired of the king's high taxes, arbitrary justice, and endless foreign wars. The fragile peace it established would last only two months, but its principles have reverberated over the centuries. Jones's riveting narrative follows the story of the Magna Carta's creation, its failure, and the war that subsequently engulfed England, and charts the high points in its unexpected afterlife. Reissued by King John's successors it protected the Church, banned unlawful imprisonment, and set limits to the exercise of royal power. It established the principle that taxation must be tied to representation and paved the way for the creation of Parliament. In 1776 American patriots, inspired by that long-ago defiance, dared to pick up arms against another English king and to demand even more far-reaching rights. We think of the Declaration of Independence as our founding document but those who drafted it had their eye on the Magna Carta.

A beautifully produced account of the signing, impact and legacy of Magna Carta, a document that became one of the most influential statements in the history of democracy, as part of the stunning landmark library series. On a summer's day in 1215 a beleaguered English monarch met a group of disgruntled barons in a meadow by the river Thames named Runnymede. Beset by foreign crisis and domestic rebellion, King John was fast running out of options. On 15 June he reluctantly agreed to fix his regal seal to a document that would change the world. A milestone in the development of constitutional politics and the rule of law, the 'Great Charter' established an Englishman's right to Habeas Corpus and set limits to the exercise of royal power. For the first time a group of subjects had forced an English king to agree to a document that limited his powers by law and protected their rights. Dan Jones's elegant and authoritative narrative of the making and legacy of Magna Carta is amplified by profiles of the barons who secured it and a full text of the charter in both Latin and English.

'A soaring account of the months that transformed a messy feudal squabble into Magna Carta...his crisp storytelling, based around short chapters and rolling rhetoric, is extremely entertaining.' Dan Jones, Mail on Sunday'I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Good history is descriptive, narrative and analytical. This is good history.' Gerard DeGroot, The TimesAt Runnymede, on the banks of the River Thames, on 15 June 1215, the seal of King John was attached to the Magna Carta, and peace descended upon the land. Or that's what successive generations have believed. But is it true? And have we been persuaded (or persuaded ourselves) that the events of 15 June 1215 not only ended a civil war between the king and the barons but - as if by magic - established a British constitution beloved and copied throughout the world?Often viewed as a victory for the people over the monarchy and a cornerstone of democracy, the true significance of Magna Carta is misunderstood and misrepresented. In Magna Carta: The True Story Behind the Charter, David Starkey paints a vivid portrait of the years 1215-1225, ten revolutionary years of huge significance that produced not one but four charters. Peopled by colourful historical figures - John, the boy-king Henry, Pope Innocent III, Archbishop Stephen Langton, William Marshal - Starkey tells a story of treachery and idealism, politics and peace-making that is surprising and enthralling.Informative, entertaining and controversial, Magna Carta: The True Story Behind the Charterchallenges centuries of myth-making to demonstrate how important it is we understand the true significance of that day beside the Thames, over eight hundred years ago.

The Spartan legend has inspired and captivated subsequent generations with evidence of its legacy found in both the Roman and British Empires. The Spartans are our ancestors, every bit as much as the Athenians. But while Athens promoted democracy, individualism, culture and society, their great rivals Sparta embodied militarism, totalitarianism, segregation and brutal repression. As ruthless as they were self-sacrificing, their devastatingly successful war rituals made the Spartans the ultimate fighting force, epitomized by Thermopylae. While slave masters to the Helots for over three centuries, Spartan women, such as Helen of Troy, were free to indulge in education, dance and sport. Interspersed with the personal biographies of leading figures, and based on thirty years' research, Paul Cartledge's The Spartans tracks the people from 480 to 360 BC charting Sparta's progression from the Great Power of the Aegean Greek world to its ultimate demise.

Magna Carta (1215) is a peace treaty drafted by Archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton in coordination with the English barons. Intended as an appeal to King John of England on behalf of the barons, Magna Carta was agreed to on June 15, 1215. Although it was not initially respected, leading to the First Barons' War, Magna Carta was later revised and reissued as part of the Treaty of Lambeth in 1217, establishing peace between King Henry III and the rebel barons. Dissatisfied with the rule of King John, rebel barons gathered in Northampton in May of 1215 to renounce their feudal ties to the crown. Unwilling to accept arbitration with the Pope on behalf of the King, the barons forced John to meet with them at Runnymede on June 10, 1215. Over the next ten days, and under the direction of Stephen Langton, they turned their demands into a charter now known as Magna Carta. Agreed to by King John on June 15, the Magna Carta proposed major political reforms, including the protection of the rights of the church, protection from unjust imprisonment, and limits on feudal payments and other forms of taxation due to the King. Although Magna Carta focuses on the rights of barons, it also articulates the rights of serfs and other free men. Recognized as a foundational document on the concept of liberty, Magna Carta is widely respected in Britain and the United States, and served as a major influence on the creation of the United States Constitution. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Magna Carta is a classic of English political history reimagined for modern readers.

WINNER of the Dublin Literary Award 2024 and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize 2022 NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2022 by the New Yorker , Publishers Weekly , The Financial Times , Words Without Borders A highly-acclaimed master work of fiction from Mircea Cărtărescu, author of Blinding, Solenoid is an existence (and eventually a cosmos) created by forking paths. Based on Cărtărescu's own experience as a high school teacher, Solenoid begins with the mundane details of a diarist's life and quickly spirals into a philosophical account of life, history, philosophy, and mathematics.The novel is grounded in the reality of Romania in the late 1970s and early 1980s, including frightening health care, the absurdities of the education system, and the misery of family life, while on a broad scale Solenoid 's investigations of other universes, dimensions, and timelines attempt to reconcile the realms of life and art. The text includes sequences in a tuberculosis preventorium, encounters with an anti-death protest movement, a society of dream investigators, and an extended visit to the miniscule world of dust mites living on a microscope slide. One character asks another: When you rush into the burning building, will you save the newborn or the artwork? Combining fiction with autobiography and history—Nikola Tesla and Charles Hinton, for example, appear alongside the Voynich manuscript— Solenoid searches for escape routes through the alternate dimensions of life and art, as various monstrous realities erupt within the present.

I et drømmeagtigt Bukarest bevæger hovedpersonen, en navnløs rumænsklærer, sig mellem sit hjem og skolen. Han spekulerer over hvordan hans liv ville have været hvis det digt, han skrev som ung student, havde fået succes, og han i stedet for rumænsklærer var blevet en verdensberømt forfatter. Vekslende med de monotone ture frem og tilbage mellem hans hus og skole nr. 86 møder han en anden virkelighed, en sælsom, hypnotisk virkelighed. Her glitrer huse med gådefulde værelser og udvækster, minder og drømme ligger som et lag over de grå boulevarder, og matematiske, filosofiske og litterære spørgsmål antager en uventet kropslighed. Rundt i byen ligger kæmpestore magnetspoler – solenoider – som får huse, mennesker og genstande til at levitere. Solenoide er en enestående litterær bedrift skrevet at en af vor tids store europæiske forfattere. ”Vor tids Shakespeare” Aftonbladet ”Cărtărescu har en forrygende barnlig fantasi og en fortællermæssig virtuositet som en gammel mester.” Der Spiegel

"Cartan's work provides a superb text for an undergraduate course in advanced calculus, but at the same time it furnishes the reader with an excellent foundation for global and nonlinear algebra." -- Mathematical Review "Brilliantly successful." -- Bulletin de l'Association des Professeurs de Mathematiques "The presentation is precise and detailed, the style lucid and almost conversational . . . clearly an outstanding text and work of reference." -- Annales Cartan's Formes Differentielles was first published in France in 1967. It was based on the world-famous teacher's experience at the Faculty of Sciences in Paris, where his reputation as an outstanding exponent of the Bourbaki school of mathematics was first established. Addressed to second- and third-year students of mathematics, the material skillfully spans the pure and applied branches in the familiar French manner, so that the applied aspects gain in rigor while the pure mathematics loses none of its dignity. This book is equally essential as a course text, as a work of reference, or simply as a brilliant mathematical exercise.

'Cartarescu is one of the great literary voices of Central Europe' Olga Tokarczuk, Nobel Prize winner and author of Flights 'A Danubian Narnia. . . his writing delivers a rainbow-hued riot of fantasy, imagination and invention' Boyd Tonkin, Spectator A dreamlike novel of memory and magic, Nostalgia turns the dark world of Communist Bucharest into a place of strange enchantments. Here a man plays increasingly death-defying games of Russian Roulette, a child messiah works his magic in the tenements, a young man explores gender boundaries, a woman relives her youth and an architect becomes obsessed with the sound of his new car horn - with unexpected consequences. Blending reality and symbolism, time and myth, this is a cult masterwork from Romania's most celebrated writer.

”Han havde ønsket sig at være pige bare en dag eller et år for at kunne betragte tingene fra den anden side og derefter forene de to perspektiver til ét som hos en engel eller en oplyst. Hvordan ville verden se ud, hvis den ikke blev betragtet af en kvinde eller en mand, men af et menneske befriet for kønnets tyranni? Han ville gerne have været mere end som så, et kvinde-mande-oldinge-barne-foster-lig, der levede et illusorisk totalliv under den negleagtige måne, ensomhedens evindeligt sultne stjerne.” En femårig dreng er alene tilbage i lejligheden da hans mor er gået ud for at købe ind. Han udforsker først alle værelserne, dernæst den nærliggende gummifabrik og til sidst det store indkøbscenter hvorfra han har lykkelige minder. Men kommer moren nogensinde tilbage? Marcel er otte år og lever i en symbiose med sin elskede lillesøster Isabel i en verden hvor de voksne ikke er andet end flygtige tilstedeværende. Da Isabel bliver syg, er Marcel parat til at se sin frygt i øjnene og ofre alt for at frelse hende. Ivan er femten år og er verdens mest ensomme væsen, som han siger. I et skab opbevarer han de huder som han år for år har måttet skifte mens han er vokset op. Da han møder Dora, forelsker han sig i hende og spørger sig selv om også kvinder skifter hud. Fortællingerne i MELANCOLIA kredser som altid hos Cărtărescu ensomhed, smerte og sorg, men altid med en fantastisk, surrealistisk, nærmest kafkask tone. Pressen om SOLENOIDE : ”Rumænske Mircea Cărtărescus roman har samme dybde og vidtspændende uudgrundelighed som ’Den guddommelige komedie’ og andre af verdenslitteraturens klassikere.” Thomas Thurah, Information ”Det er meget længe siden, at jeg har læst en bog, hvor den sproglige opfindsomhed og originalitet er så udtalt.” Erik Svendsen, Jyllands-Posten

The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is the most widely ratified human rights treaty in the world, yet everyday children still face poverty, violence, war, disease and disaster. Are the rights we currently afford to children enough? Combining historical analysis with international human rights law, Michael Freeman considers early legal and philosophical theories on children's rights before exploring the impact and limitations of the Convention itself. He also suggests ways that we may rethink children's rights in the future as well as identifying key areas for reform. This book will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience who are interested in children's rights, children's studies, the history of childhood, international human rights, and comparative family law. It is a crucial restatement of the importance of law, policy and rights in improving children's lives.

Nach "Solenoid" das neue Buch des rumänischen Bestsellerautors: "Cartarescu hat die Phantasie eines großen Kindes und die Sprachfertigkeit eines alten Meisters." Malte Herwig, Der Spiegel Mircea Cartarescu schreibt über die Kindheit und das Heranwachsen. Und er enthüllt dabei die großen Themen des Lebens: Einsamkeit, Trennung, Liebe. Als seine Mutter einkaufen geht, ist der fünfjährige Junge überzeugt, sie kehrt nicht mehr zurück. Zuerst erkundet er die Wohnung, dann die nahe Kautschukfabrik, schließlich träumt er sich in das Kaufhaus Concordia. Um seine kleine Schwester von einer Krankheit zu heilen, unternimmt Marcel eine nächtliche Reise zum "Fuchsbau", vor dem sie sich am meisten fürchtet. Jahr für Jahr muss Ivan die Kleidungsstücke aussortieren, die ihm zu klein geworden sind. Als er Dora trifft und sich in sie verliebt, fragt er sich, ob auch Mädchen ihre Haut wechseln müssen.

This remarkable book shines a fierce light on the current state of liberty and shows how longstanding restraints against tyranny - and the rights of habeas corpus, trial by jury, and due process of law, and the prohibition of torture - are being abridged. In providing a sweeping history of Magna Carta, the source of these protections since 1215, this powerful book demonstrates how these ancient rights are repeatedly laid aside when the greed of privatization, the lust for power, and the ambition of empire seize a state. Peter Linebaugh draws on primary sources to construct a wholly original history of the Great Charter and its scarcely-known companion, the Charter of the Forest, which was created at the same time to protect the subsistence rights of the poor.
