Sinopsis

Vikings First Lands explores the crucial formative period of the Viking Age, focusing on Scandinavia and the initial Viking expansion. It examines the environmental, societal, and technological factors that propelled Norse seafarers onto the world stage. Rather than simply recounting raids and conquests, the book delves into the conditions within Norway, Sweden, and Denmark that fostered such a transformative culture.

 
The book highlights Viking seafaring technology, illustrating how longships and navigation skills enabled exploration. For instance, their knowledge of astronomy helped them traverse vast expanses of open sea. It also analyzes early Viking settlements, detailing strategies for resource acquisition and trade.

 
The investigation will explore the political and social structures of pre-Viking Scandinavia, including the evolution of Norse religion and shipbuilding techniques. The book progresses by first introducing the Scandinavian landscape and then tracing the development of Viking seafaring. Subsequent chapters analyze archaeological evidence from early settlements. This approach provides a nuanced perspective on Viking activities, emphasizing that their expansion was a carefully planned series of movements driven by specific economic and social pressures.

"I am the most terrible animal that's ever existed." 
 
"Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice, it is a fallacy. You in America will see that someday."

“I feel, when we have no friends upon whom to lean, or to look for moral guidance." (Mussolini) 
 
Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini, born on July 29, 1883, who went by the nickname “Il Duce” (“the Leader”), was a deeply unbalanced tyrannical Italian dictator who created the dreaded Fascist Party in 1919. Eventually, he held all power in Italy as the country’s prime minister from 1922 to 1943. An ardent socialist as a youth, Mussolini followed in his father's political footsteps but was expelled by the party for his overt support of World War I. As an evil dictator during World War II (even murdering his own son by lethal injection) he greatly overextended his forces and was eventually killed by his own people in Mezzegra, Italy. Here, for the first time, are the words of the great dictator himself in his twisted manifesto on the political movement he started and is still so feared to this very day.

We are witnessing a worldwide resurgence of reactionary ideologies and movements, combined with an escalating assault on democratic institutions and structures. Nevertheless, most studies of these phenomena remain anchored in a methodological nationalism, while comparative research is almost entirely limited to the Global North. Yet, authoritarian transformations in the South — and the struggles against them — have not only been just as dramatic as those in the North but also preceded them, and consequently have been studied by Southern scholars for many years. 

This volume brings together the work of more than 15 scholar-activists from across the Global South, combining in-depth studies of regional processes of authoritarian transformation with a global perspective on authoritarian capitalism. 

With a foreword by Verónica Gago.

In 1965, Satyajit Ray, drawing from the detective tradition made popular by characters such as Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, created a character who would go on to influence Bengalis of an entire generation: Feluda. And when Soumitra Chatterjee played the dapper detective in the film Sonar Kella, a cult was born. Fifty years later, the cult endures. Every new Feluda film has the box office in a tizzy. Feluda@50 seeks to explore the phenomenon. What makes Feluda tick? What is it that we love about this man? Why is it that every Feluda film continues to run to packed houses for weeks and months on end in an otherwise struggling Bengali film industry? What is the way forward for the franchise in the years to come? What role do Feluda's sidekicks, Topshe and Lalmohan-babu, play? The book also delves deep into Ray's motivations for keeping Feluda cocooned from contemporary politics and never allowing him to have a love interest. Also including in-depth interviews with the three stars who have played Feluda onscreen, this is the quintessential fan tribute and a celebration of Feluda on the occasion of the sleuth's fiftieth anniversary.
