: The "fall" in New England is truly unique, rivalled only in small areas of Japan. This is the story of our three week tour of the New England states in September/October 2015. We toured the Maine Coast, ate lobsters, and visited its quaint coastal villages, then we motored through New Hampshire to spend a wonderful week in the mountains of Vermont. Here we had the very best of the "fall" - a magnificent kaleidoscope of autumn colours. Following route 100 south we arrived at the Atlantic seaport of Mystic then spent another week exploring this picturesque and historic coastline. We visited Rhode Island, toured the mansions of Newport and explored the landing places of the Pilgrims in 1620 - Cape Cod and Plymouth.

Free Download Charles Leddy-Owen, "Nationalism, Inequality and England's Political Predicament "
English | ISBN: 1138086576 | 2019 | 178 pages | EPUB | 1028 KB
Based on fine-grained ethnographic research in an English city, this book offers a highly original perspective on England's contemporary political predicament. It argues that some of the most influential academic accounts of the country's current political situation, particularly those focusing on culture or racism, have neglected the key role of nationalism as an often unspoken, banal political principle and framing ideology. Suggesting that economic inequalities remain the key causal ingredient of English political life and, crucially, that these are being interpreted by individuals in relation to a nationalist/cosmopolitan ideological axis, the author argues that any effective, progressive political future will require a reinvigorated sense of political community.

Free Download England and Europe in the Reign of Henry III (1216-1272) By Ifor W. Rowlands
2018 | 264 Pages | ISBN: 0754604675 | PDF | 63 MB
The close political, economic and cultural ties that developed between England and its neighbours were a defining feature of the rule of Henry III, which permeated nearly all levels of society from the king and his barons to the Church and merchants, artisans and fortune hunters. They were evident both in the high politics of Henry III, as well as in the more general cultural developments, as can be seen in the French architecture, Italian masonry and German goldwork of Westminster Abbey. They can likewise be traced with regard to individuals such as Simon de Montfort, whose family was active in the Holy Land, Languedoc, Northern France and England. In short, thirteenth century England formed part of a broader European cultural, political and economic commonwealth. The essays that form this volume demonstrate the variety and strength of these contacts between England and her neighbours during Henry's reign, and by seeking to place Henry's England within a broader geographical and thematic range, will contribute to a broader understanding of England's place within thirteenth century Europe.

Free Download Prophecy, Politics and Place in Medieval England: From Geoffrey of Monmouth to Thomas of Erceldoune By Victoria Flood
2016 | 252 Pages | ISBN: 1843844478 | PDF | 9 MB
The period from the twelfth century to the Wars of the Roses witnessed a dominant tradition of secular prophecy engaged with high political affairs, which this book charts, discussing the production of prophetic texts forecastingthe rule of the whole of Britain by the kings of England. It draws on the prophetic works of familiar authors and names, such as Geoffrey of Monmouth and Thomas of Erceldoune, alongside previously unpublished manuscript material, to study identity formation among medieval political elites. Alongside English prophetic texts, the author explores competing visions of the British future produced in Wales and Scotland, with which English prophetic authors entered into an overt dialogue; this was a cross-border exchange which in many ways shaped the development of this deeply influential discourse. Prophecy is revealed to be a dynamic arena for literary exchange, where alternative imaginings of the future sovereignty of Britain vied for acceptance, and compelled decision making at the highest political levels.Dr Victoria Flood is Lecturer in Medieval and Early Modern Literature at the University of Birmingham
