Synopsis

In "Anglo-Saxon Britain," Grant Allen meticulously examines the period between the 5th and 11th centuries, unraveling the intricate tapestry of society, culture, and governance that characterized early England. Through a blend of vivid prose and scholarly rigor, Allen highlights the era's pivotal transformations, including the blending of Roman and Germanic influences, the rise of Christianity, and the evolution of the Anglo-Saxon monarchy. The work is distinguished by its engaging narrative style, with Allen seamlessly integrating archaeological findings and historical documentation, making the text accessible to both scholars and general readers alike. Grant Allen, a notable figure in late 19th-century literature and a proponent of science in the arts, was deeply influenced by contemporary scientific thought and evolving historical methodologies. His passion for natural history and societal progress is evident in his work. Allen'Äôs background in science and literature enables him to approach history with a fresh perspective, challenging traditional narratives and inviting readers to reconsider their understanding of England's formative years. "Anglo-Saxon Britain" is an indispensable read for anyone interested in the roots of English history, providing not only a factual account but also a narrative that invites us to experience the complexities of a nation in formation. Its careful balance of scholarly insight and engaging storytelling makes it a compelling addition to historical literature, appealing to historians, students, and curious readers alike.

    The History of Political Thought...

    Thinking about politics has tended to be historical in nature because of the comparisons and contrasts that can be drawn between past and present. Different periods in politics have used the past differently. At times political thought can be said to have been drawn directly from the study of history; at others, perhaps including our own time, the relationship is more indirect. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short Introduction explores the core concerns and questions in the field of the history of political thought. Richard Whatmore considers the history of political thought as a branch of political philosophy/political science, and examines the approaches of core theorists such as Reinhart Koselleck, Strauss, Michel Foucault, and the so-called Cambridge School of Quentin Skinner and John Pocock. Assessing the current relationship between political history, theory and action, Whatmore concludes with an analysis of its relevance for current politics.

    Noble Savage Deadbeat Dad - How...

    In this mercilessly funny takedown, Jean-Jacques Rousseau—history's most insufferable philosopher—gets the roasting he so richly deserves. "Noble Savage, Deadbeat Dad" exposes the spectacular hypocrisy of a man who abandoned five children at orphanages while writing the definitive guide to education, preached natural virtue while exposing himself to strangers, and railed against wealth while living off rich patrons. 
    Laugh out loud as we dissect Rousseau's greatest contradictions: his fetishization of indigenous cultures (without meeting any actual indigenous people), his belief that society corrupts natural goodness (while engaging in deeply unnatural bedroom activities), and his conviction that he alone understood true freedom (while being pathologically dependent on others for basic survival). 
    This savagely irreverent guide reveals how a paranoid, chronically constipated Swiss misanthrope somehow managed to inspire both democracy AND totalitarianism between bouts of accusing everyone he met of conspiring against him. With brutal honesty and razor-sharp wit, we explore how Rousseau's complete disaster of a personal life somehow produced philosophical insights that still haunt us today—especially when we complain about technology ruining society while scrolling through social media. 
    Perfect for philosophy students in desperate need of comic relief, or anyone who enjoys watching narcissistic geniuses get thoroughly eviscerated. Warning: Reading this book in public may cause uncontrollable laughter and concerned looks from serious academics.
