  Anarchy and Authority - Irish...

  From the ascent of Peter the Great to the Russian Revolution. From the Battle of the Boyne to the Easter Rising. Between these epochal events were two astounding centuries of war, diplomacy, intrigue, innovation and international radical political movements, the reverberations of which are still felt in both Ireland and the former territories of the Russian empire today.
  In Anarchy and Authority, readers follow contemporaneous accounts of Irish men and women who ventured into the Russian empire during the long centuries of Romanov rule. Human connections, political intrigues, cultural cross-pollination mesh with sweeping historical narratives in the story of the island and the empire.
  Meticulously researched and energetically told, these are the stories of Irish residents, travellers and migrants to Russia from that time, ranging from diplomats and governesses, to early tourists, travel writers, soldiers, servants and even a revolutionary music-teacher. From the Irishmen and women who benefitted from the imperial wars waged by the Russian state, to those Irish observers who bore witness to the horrors of serfdom and the oppression of dissenting voices.
  Anarchy and Authority brings to vivid life these Irish perspectives. Their fascinating insights and unique depths of field give increasing relevance to the turbulent geo-politics of modern times.

  DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
  This is a summary, and it does not accompany the official 
  "The Hundred Years' War on Palestine" by Rashid Khalidi presents a comprehensive history of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict from a Palestinian perspective. It begins with an 1899 letter from Yusuf Diya al-Khalidi, the author's ancestor, warning against Zionist plans in Palestine. Khalidi uses archival materials and family reports to challenge traditional narratives of the conflict as a mere clash over territory. He argues that it's a century-long colonial war against Palestinians, led by Zionists and later Israel, with support from Britain and the U.S. The book covers major events like the Balfour Declaration, the 1948 destruction of Palestine, and Israel’s 1982 Lebanon invasion. Khalidi aims to provide a balanced account, acknowledging Palestinian leadership flaws and the rise of national movements on both sides and offering a fresh perspective on an ongoing conflict.

  A concise history of the goddess-like figures who evade both Christian and pagan traditions, from the medieval period to the present day 
   
   
   
  In this riveting account, renowned scholar Ronald Hutton explores the history of deity-like figures in Christian Europe. Drawing on anthropology, archaeology, literature, and history, Hutton shows how hags, witches, the fairy queen, and the Green Man all came to be, and how they changed over the centuries. 
   
   
    
  Looking closely at four main figures—Mother Earth, the Fairy Queen, the Mistress of the Night, and the Old Woman of Gaelic tradition—Hutton challenges decades of debate around the female figures who have long been thought versions of pre-Christian goddesses. He makes the compelling case that these goddess figures found in the European imagination did not descend from the pre-Christian ancient world, yet have nothing Christian about them. It was in fact nineteenth-century scholars who attempted to establish the narrative of pagan survival that persists today.
