Описание: Magna Carta was largely ineffective as a constitutional document for hundreds of years until it was reinvented for practical purposes by lawyers between the 1580s and 1616. This book reveals, partly from unpublished legal sources, the steps by which this occurred, and examines the causes.

Following World War II, Germany was faced not only with the practical tasks of reconstruction and denazification, but also with the longer-term mission of morally "re-civilizing" its citizens--a goal that persisted through the nation's 1949 split. One of the most important mediums for effecting reeducation was television, whose strengths were particularly evident in the thousands of television plays that were broadcast in both Germanys in the 1950s and 1960s. This book shows how TV dramas transcended state boundaries and--notwithstanding the ideological differences between East and West--addressed shared issues and themes, helping to ease viewers into confronting uncomfortable moral topics.
Описание: This original study examines different incarnations of the Pyrenees, beginning with the assumptions of 18th-century geologists, who treated the mountains like a laboratory, and romantic 19th-century tourists and habitues of the spa resorts, who went in search of the picturesque and the sublime. The book analyses the individual visions of the heroic Pyrenees which in turn fascinated 19th-century mountaineers and the racing cyclists of the early Tour de France. Martyn Lyons also investigates the role of the Pyrenees during the Second World War as an escape route from Nazi-occupied France, when for thousands of refugees these dangerous borderlands became ‘the mountains of liberty’, and considers the place of the Pyrenees in recent times right up to the present day. Drawing on travel writing, press reports and scientific texts in several languages, The Pyrenees in the Modern Era explores both the French and Spanish sides of the Pyrenees to provide a nuanced historical understanding of the cultural construction of one of Europe’s most prominent border regions. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of Europe’s cultural history in a transnational context.
