    What was your experience of art in school? Was it all doilies, cheap paint, and crusty brushes? Or was it better than that but you still wondered why it seemed to be the runt of the educational litter. In this humorous, engaging, and thought-provoking book, Anna Cutler, a leading figure in art education, takes you on a journey through her personal experiences and reflections on the value of art in schools. By the end you’ll come to realise that the stakes are surprisingly high for the social, emotional, and intellectual development of our children. It is an impassioned plea to nourish, within and beyond schools, the one resource that will never run out: the human capacity to create.
     
    “Engagingly informal and on a take-it-or-leave-it basis, this wise and witty book can be absorbed quite effortlessly in one sitting. It leaves you with the sense that you’ve enjoyed one-on-one tuition from the favourite teacher you never had.”  
     
    Dr Shane Kinghorn, Manchester Metropolitan University.
     
    “I learned a great deal reading this book and laughed in all the right places. It is a powerful, persuasive ‘Call to Arts’.”

    Illiberal Europe - Eastern...

    Eighteen years have passed since ten countries from Central & Eastern Europe joined the European Union and more than three decades since the Berlin Wall was torn down in 1989 - but ignorance about what is popularly still called Eastern Europe is as widespread as ever. Slovenia still gets mixed up with Slovakia, the Slavs remain a mystery in a Europe apparently dominated by Romanic and Germanic nations and a country like the Czech Republic is labelled as Eastern European, although one needs to travel west to get from Vienna to Prague. 
     
    First published in 2009 under the title What's so eastern about Eastern Europe?, this book is much more than a revised and updated version of the first edition. Its presentation of the political and cultural history of Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe, written in an accessible language is now complemented with recent developments in the region. The new edition digs into the reasons behind the illiberal turn in Poland, Hungary and elsewhere, putting the alleged democratic backslide into the wider context of European populism. Leon Marc offers a new and fresh perspective in explaining the roots of populism and social conservativism in the region, which the book sees in a mixture of historical factors, economic conditions, the heavy burden of Communist legacy, as well as a reaction to contemporary social developments in the West. Drawing on a wide range of literature, the book calls for more sensibility to these underlying causes, critical examination of the true European values, and for a coalition of defenders of Humanism and Judeo-Christian tradition as key pillars of its identity, in order to save Europe and its liberal democracy. 
     
    This updated and expanded edition contains a brand new chapter bringing this book up to date with recent events, including Covid-19 and the Ukrainian conflict. 
     
    'Comprehensively and concisely, Leon Marc's book presents readers with vital insights into the different dimensions of our common European history and culture' - Professor Dr Jaap W. de Zwaan, Director of the Netherlands Institute of International Relations

    Abraham Lincoln’s early years were marked by hardship, poverty, and a relentless drive to rise above his circumstances. Born in a one-room log cabin in Kentucky in 1809, Lincoln experienced the difficulties of frontier life. His family moved frequently, and his formal education was limited to less than a year’s worth of school. Yet, even in these early years, he developed a deep curiosity and love for learning. He read whatever books he could find, often borrowing them from neighbors, and was known to read by firelight late into the night. This hunger for knowledge became a central part of his identity and would later feed into his political ambitions. 
    Lincoln’s entry into politics began in Illinois, where he settled in the town of New Salem. There, he earned a reputation for honesty, storytelling, and a sharp intellect. He first ran for the state legislature in 1832 and lost, but he tried again two years later and won. As a member of the Illinois State Legislature, he began to develop his political skills and established a clear stance on important issues such as internal improvements and economic development. He aligned himself with the Whig Party, inspired by Henry Clay’s vision of a strong national economy. During this time, Lincoln also began to study law, teaching himself the subject and eventually becoming a successful lawyer in Springfield, where he built a respectable career and deepened his connections. 
    Though he was gaining traction in law and state politics, Lincoln’s ambition reached further. He served a single term in the U.S. House of Representatives in the late 1840s, during which he opposed the Mexican-American War and supported internal improvements. However, his criticism of the war was unpopular, and after his term, he faded from national politics for a while. Yet, Lincoln was far from finished. The moral and political debate over slavery rekindled his interest in national affairs.
