  • The most extensive history of punctuation in English literature available, this three-volume set examines the production, context, and impact of punctuation in nearly 100 major authors and texts from the Medieval period to the present. Essays address the complexity, nuance, and significance of punctuation in works of poetry, drama, and prose, using diplomatic quotation to demonstrate punctuation's essential part in literary writing, production, reading, and reception. Topics covered include scribal and textual transmission and genesis ; manuscript and print ; pedagogy ; standardization ; house style ; conventions ; editorial intervention ; reading experiences ; and elocutionary, syntactical, deictic, and spatial punctuation. A general introduction discusses theories and practices of punctuation, while three volume-introductions address the age of manuscript, impact of printing, and subsequent pressures of mechanization, industrialization, and digitization. This History demonstrates that punctuation, far from “accidental,” is a crucial element of hermeneutics, deeply impacting literary practice, meaning, and interpretation.

  • This Element revisits the conceptual history of freedom and democracy in Cold War South Korea. Cold War liberalism is usually told as a North Atlantic story of defensive anti-communism, the 'liberalism of fear', and pluralist scepticism towards mass politics. Yet behind that veneer lay another face - the technocratic administrative state - that became dominant once Cold War liberalism reached the decolonising periphery under the rubric of 'modernisation'. Through a conceptual historical analysis, this Element traces how freedom and democracy were continually recombined with nationalism, developmentalism and diverse moral-economic registers, generating conceptual problematics the metropolitan tradition had rarely been compelled to confront. From the Founding Constitution through 'Korean-style democracy' to the minjung turn and democratic transition, Cold War Korea emerges not as belated reception but as a vantage from which liberalism's constitutive tensions become visible.

  • The Cambridge History of Technology takes a global view of how technology has been understood and put into practice, and of the worlds it has made. Volume II examines technology through the lens of the everyday activities that build, sustain, and continuously transform human societies. Across five parts, the chapters explore how practices such as making and consuming, dwelling and moving, measuring and subverting, along with ordering and communicating, generate agency and shape both material worlds and ways of thinking. Many of these pairings highlight unexpected connections and the tensions between structure and meaning, control and change. Shifting focus from what technology is to what technology does, Volume II reveals technology not simply as a force acting upon history, but as the very medium of historical becoming. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

  • Covering the earliest known Anglophone literature for children from its medieval forms, its evolution in the early modern period and towards its emergence in the world of print culture, this volume explores the very foundations of the field through to its establishment as a popular genre for nineteenth-century consumers. In-depth discussion of specific sub-periods is provided in the opening chapters, while the remainder trace both major and more subtle changes in genre and style over time, charting an age of experimentation in form including both successful innovations and frequent failed attempts. The geographical range primarily focuses on the British Isles, but chapters also investigate early developments in children's books from North America and the wider impacts of colonialism and slavery. The shifting currents of didacticism and reading for pleasure across a variety of genres, bolstered by Enlightenment educational ideals, intersect here with new thinking about politics, sex, science, and faith.

  • From Lucretius to the twelfth century, this book traces the formative history of one of Western philosophy's most enduring concepts: prime matter. It examines how ancient, late antique, and early medieval thinkers interpreted corporeal reality, reshaping the relationship between matter, form, and change. By reconstructing this early phase, the book reveals the conceptual tensions and creative syntheses that defined Latin debates on the ontology of matter before the full reception of Aristotle, including discussions of Islamic and Jewish philosophical traditions. This period emerges as a laboratory of metaphysical experimentation, in which questions about potentiality, substrate, and divine causality reconfigured debates in metaphysics, natural philosophy, and theology. Written by leading scholars in the field, A Philosophical History of Prime Matter. Volume I: Ancient and Pre-Scholastic Conceptions offers a systematic account of the origins and early transformations of hylomorphism in the Latin tradition.

  • From the thirteenth to the seventeenth century, philosophers across Europe and beyond reconfigured the nature, intelligibility, and causal role of matter in the constitution of the physical world. This book traces the development of hylomorphism from its diverse scholastic synthesis to its early modern transformation. Through studies of figures such as Grosseteste, Aquinas, Scotus, and Suárez, it reconstructs competing conceptions of prime matter – as pure potentiality, positive being, or fundamental substrate – and analyses their implications for metaphysics, natural philosophy, and theology. It also examines early modern encounters between Aristotelian hylomorphism and Chinese thought, exploring Jesuit engagements with Neo-Confucian cosmology and qi-based ontology. Combining detailed textual analyses with a global historical perspective, A Philosophical History of Prime Matter. Volume II: Scholastic and Early Modern Conceptions offers a comprehensive account of the redefinition of material ontology in the late medieval and early modern world.

Translating Latin and Greek

  • Everyone working with Latin and Greek texts shares a Special Relationship with translation: any access to texts written in those 'dead' languages is by default via translation only. Classicists live in what may be called the 'translation condition'—they have to translate. Translation in Classics, however, though absolutely fundamental, remains insufficiently considered or discussed. This ground-breaking volume is the first to provide a systematic and theoretically sophisticated treatment of translating these classical languages. Thoroughly informed by Translation Studies and cognate disciplines, it is organized in four distinct yet inter-connected parts: translation practices, select histories of translation, ten first-hand accounts by published Classicist-translators and a section devoted entirely to translation pedagogy. All of this is accompanied by an Introduction, a Glossary and an Annotated General Bibliography. The chief goal of this Critical Guide is to create a 'topography of translation' within the discipline of Classics and beyond.

  • Spain has until recently been almost absent from traditional operatic histories and guidebooks, yet its lyric theatre boasts a rich heritage dating back to the early 1620s, which still flourishes four centuries later. The History offers a comprehensive survey from the Baroque to the modern musical, taking in such important theatrical patterns as the romantic zarzuela (1850s–1950s), which remains hugely popular throughout the Hispanic world. The volume is organised chronologically, providing readers with a panoramic overview, while in-depth Interchapters and case studies focus on topics of special interest, including individual composers, works and performers, using a 'transatlantic lens' to examine Spanish-language lyric theatre in the Americas and beyond. It offers a fresh summation of the best modern scholarship from academics, writers and performers, encouraging readers to think in terms of changing musico-dramatic patterns –'living theatre' rather than fixed 'genres' – while pointing forward to the global dissemination of these remarkable Spanish repertoires.

The Global Rise of Fascism

  • The rise of fascism in the 1920s and 1930s was, at its core, a transnational and global phenomenon. Drawing on a vast range of empirical evidence, Ángel Alcalde narrates the emergence, consolidation, and spread of fascist ideologies in inter-war Europe and the world, from the old counter-revolutionary tradition of the far right up to 1945. While Mussolini's regime inspired right-wing ultranationalists everywhere, including Hitler himself, Nazi Germany further strengthened the worldwide proliferation of the far right. The global rise of fascism caused liberal democracy to decline, destroyed rights and liberties, and generated widespread political violence, numerous wars, and genocides culminating in the national and international crises of the 1930s, the Holocaust, and the Second World War. Illuminating a world of transnational fascist cooperation and rivalry, this book offers a new analytical narrative for the development of far-right movements and casts fresh light on the current resurgence of fascist movements worldwide.
