Building Jerusalem. The Rise and Fall of the Victorian City

Owl Books, 2006. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 608. �"œHunt tells this complex, epic story with dazzling clarity and organizational brilliance. I know nothing equaling its scope and ambition.�"�"Phillip Lopate, Los Angeles TimesEver since Charles Dickens first described Coketown in Hard Times, the nineteenth-century city has connoted deprivation, pollution, and criminality. Yet, as historian Tristram Hunt argues in this powerful new history, the Coketowns born of the Industrial Revolution were canvasas for ambitious urban innovators who would influence the shape of cities for generations. Drawing on diaries, newspapers, and classic works of fiction, Hunt shows how the Victorians translated their energy and imagination into an astonishingly grand architecture, tranforming even the factories of Manchester and Birmingham into sites of freedom and art. Surveying the great civic creations, from town halls to city squares, sidewalks, and even sewers, Hunt reveals a story of middle-class power and the liberating mission of city life. The Victorians vowed to emulate the city-states of Renaissance Italy, and succeeded"until wealthy metropolises degenerated into dangerous inner cities in the twentieth century. ISBN: 9780805082593.

NAPHY, WILLIAM G. & HUNT, TRISTRAM

The Protestant revolution. From Martin Luther to Martin Luther King Jr

Bbc Pubns, 2008. Hardcover. Pp: 304. Historian William Naphy asks how the actions of an obscure German monk are still shaping our modern world. When Martin Luther nailed 95 criticisms of the Catholic Church to the door of his local church in 1517, he sparked not just a religious reformation, but an unending cycle of political, social, and economic change that continues to this day. By challenging the authority of the Pope, Luther inadvertently unleashed a revolutionary force"the power of the individual to determine his or her own thoughts and actions. Naphy demonstrates how more than four centuries later, Protestant minister Martin Luther King, Jr. was acting on the same revolutionary principle when he rejected racial discrimination and spearheaded the civil rights movement. The legacy of the Reformation is all around us, influencing our work life, family life, sex life, and political views. From literature to science, from gay marriage to the "War on Terror," a vibrant struggle for Protestant principles is alive. ISBN: 9780563539209. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
