  Wyndham Lewis and British Art...

  This study connects the idiosyncratic modernism of Wyndham Lewis, co-founder of the Vorticist art movement, with works of several artists from the British art rock tradition, among them Bryan Ferry, David Bowie, art-punk pioneers Wire and electronic pop musician John Foxx. By taking a transdisciplinary and intermedial approach to texts from two fields normally studied in isolation and staking out the elements of a shared modernist ethos, the book presents a new perspective on both fields relevant to scholars of literature, popular culture, and the visual arts alike. While the book rests on sound research from the fields of literary criticism, art history, and pop theory, the structure and writing of the book is fundamentally designed to be accessible and comprehensible to non-scholarly readers.

  The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt -...

  The emergence of the pharaohs marked the beginning of one of history’s most iconic civilizations. In the early dynastic period around 3100 BCE, Egypt underwent a dramatic transformation as Upper and Lower Egypt were unified under a single ruler, traditionally identified as King Narmer or Menes. This unification not only established centralized rule but also laid the foundations for a dynastic tradition that would endure for millennia. The pharaoh, whose name means “great house,” came to be seen as both a political leader and a divine figure, embodying the will of the gods on earth. 
  As Egypt’s first kings consolidated power, they created administrative systems to manage resources, command armies, and oversee large-scale construction projects. Hierarchical governance emerged, with officials and scribes acting under the pharaoh’s authority to maintain order throughout the land. This new system allowed the pharaohs to centralize authority, control the fertile Nile Valley, and ensure the production and redistribution of grain and other goods, which became critical for sustaining a growing population and for asserting royal dominance. 
  Religious ideology played a key role in solidifying the power of the pharaohs. They were often depicted as the sons of deities, particularly associated with the sun god Ra and the sky god Horus. Temples were erected not just as places of worship, but as instruments of royal propaganda, showcasing the divine legitimacy of the ruler. Rituals, festivals, and monumental inscriptions reinforced the pharaoh’s sacred status and his role in maintaining ma’at, the cosmic order of balance and harmony.

  Terrible Revolution - Latter-day...

  The relationship between early Mormons and the US was marked by anxiety and hostility. Nineteenth-century Latter-day Saints looked forward to apocalyptic events that would unseat corrupt governments across the globe. Mormons envisioned divine deliverance by way of plagues, natural disasters, foreign invasions, American Indian raids, slave uprisings, or civil war unleashed on American people. For the Saints, these violent images promised a national rebirth that would vouchsafe the protections of the US Constitution and end their oppression. 
   
   
   
  In Terrible Revolution, Christopher James Blythe examines apocalypticism across the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The responses of the church hierarchy to apocalyptic lay prophecies promoted their own form of separatist nationalism during the nineteenth century. Yet, after Utah obtained statehood, as the church sought to assimilate to national religious norms, these same leaders sought to lessen the tensions between themselves and American political and cultural powers. As a result, visions of a violent end to the nation became a liability to disavow. Ultimately, Blythe argues that the visionary world of early Mormonism, with its apocalyptic emphases, continued in the church's mainstream culture in modified forms but continued to maintain separatist radical forms at the level of folk-belief.

  Mechanized Death: The History...

  Soon after dawn on July 1, 1916, British and Commonwealth troops climbed out of damp, muddy trenches in the Somme valley and began to advance across no-man’s land towards German positions. This was the biggest Anglo-French attack of the First World War to date, and British commanders were confident that their troops would quickly push the Germans back out of France and perhaps even begin a drive into Germany itself. The tactics they used in planning this battle had changed little since the Napoleonic Wars. After an artillery bombardment, a mass of infantry would move forward to overwhelm the defenses and then three cavalry divisions would exploit the breakthrough and drive deep into German-held territory. 
  	The British commander, Field Marshal Douglas Haig, was certain that this battle would lead to a decisive victory. The Germans had been worn down by fighting on other parts of the Western Front in 1915 and the British attacking force was one of the largest bodies of men at arms ever sent on the attack. However, by the time that night fell on that day, 57,000 British troops had become casualties, including more than 19,000 killed, the highest number of British casualties in a single day of combat.  
  	What Haig (and most other military commanders on all sides during World War I failed to grasp was that infantry tactics in use for more than a thousand years were no longer viable. That was simply because sending massed infantry formations to attack prepared enemy defensive positions could no longer succeed in the face of machine guns, which could pour a devastating stream of fire on any exposed troops. Sending troops over open ground to attack a defense that incorporated many linked machine gun positions was simply suicidal, and the outcome was carnage on an industrial scale as more and larger attacks during World War I simply caused even larger numbers of casualties.
