Sinopsis

Historiography Trends explores how our understanding of history is constantly reshaped by evolving methodologies, social perspectives, and political contexts. It examines how historical narratives are constructed, challenged, and revised over time, revealing that history is not merely a recounting of events but an interpretation reflecting the values of its creators. For instance, the book delves into how factors like gender, race, and class influence historical writing, demonstrating how social perspectives impact our understanding of the past.

 
The book progresses by first introducing core concepts and theoretical frameworks, then exploring the development of historical methodologies. Subsequent chapters analyze the influence of social, cultural, and political contexts. A key insight is understanding that historical interpretations are not static but contingent upon the intellectual environment of historians.

 
This book is valuable for students, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of history writing, as it provides the tools to critically evaluate historical narratives and appreciate the complexities of historical knowledge.

    Osho sees Zen not as a historical spiritual tradition but as the future spirituality of a humanity that has matured to the point that people no longer need religions controlled by priesthoods and based on fearful superstitions that cripple people's innate intelligence and divide them from one another.
    This series of talks offers a deeper understanding of the underlying differences between Eastern and Western approaches to religion and the nature of consciousness. It's a beautiful introduction to a world where each individual has the capacity for an instant and profound understanding of existence and a rebirth of the trust in life that each of us is born with.
    Dang Dang Doko Dang represents the sound of the drum beaten by a Zen master in an existential lesson for a disciple. As well as symbolizing the poetic quality of Zen, the title represents the special flavor of this collection of Osho's commentaries on well-known Zen stories. This volume is part of the Osho Classics series and also includes Osho's responses to questions about the meditation technique of Zazen.

    How medieval architects drew cathedral building plans
    The architectural history of the Middle Ages is full of surprises. It is difficult for us to imagine today that relatively few construction plans have been found for the impressive churches and cathedrals of the Romanesque and Gothic periods. Where did most of the drawings go? Have the plans been destroyed in Europe or lost over time? Or were they not made at all? 
    Although hardly any architectural drawings exist, there were numerous compasses. What were they used for and how? Was it possible to design complex buildings such as churches and cathedrals without blueprints? 
    The author takes her readers on an exciting cultural and historical journey through time. 
    She looks at the spread of papyrus, parchment and paper and traces the ability to write and calculate in Europe. She also looks at the construction process in historical illustrations and draws comparisons with Arabic architecture. Last but not least, she shows what types of compasses existed and how the drawing skills of master builders developed up to the Renaissance. 
    The insights into the history of architecture lead to surprising findings: The architects of the Middle Ages thought and planned very differently than we imagine today.

    Winner of the Best Non-Fiction by a Parliamentarian category at the Parliamentary Book Awards 2023
    With a Foreword by Lord Hague of Richmond
    The Intelligence Corps is one of the smallest and most secretive elements of the British Army. It has existed in various guises since the early twentieth century, but it was only formally constituted in July 1940. In this book, Michael Ashcroft tells the astonishing stories of some of its most courageous and ingenious figures, who have operated all over the world from the First World War to the present day.
    Whether carrying out surveillance work on the street, monitoring and analysing communications, working on overseas stakeouts, receiving classified information from a well-placed contact or interrogating the enemy in the heat of war, a hugely diverse range of people have served in the Corps, often supplementing their individual professional skills with original thinking and leadership in the name of the Crown. This book pays tribute to them and shows why, in the words of the 1st Duke of Marlborough, 'No war can be conducted successfully without early and good intelligence.'
