A Map of Twentieth Century Theology $30 Indispensable to understanding the advent and import of today’s radically pluralistic scene, this unique historical anthology presents 37 signal readings from key theologians of this century.

A Room of One’s Own $75.43 With its theme of autonomy and independence, Virginia Woolf’s 1929 essay A Room of One’s Own has become part of our modern cultural vocabulary. It was the first literary history of women writers and the first theory of literary inheritance in which gender was the central category. As a theory of women’s literature, it presents general ideas and issues through which the lives and works of women writers might profitably be read. Woolf (in the persona of narrator) does not offer extended readings of individual literary works but speculates about why and how women wrote as they did – which has proved infinitely more valuable to twentieth-century critics attempting to map out the new terrain of women’s literature. A Room of One’s Own is much more than a historical landmark of feminist criticism: remarkably, it has served the needs of various strains of feminist criticism, not all of them compatible with each other. In this balanced and insightful study, Ellen Bayuk Rosenman explores the myriad perceptions of a work whose famous title comes from one of its most basic and simple prescriptions: that to fare as a writer in the modern world a woman needs a room of her own and (pound)500 a year. In a broad sense, Rosenman points out, A Room of One’s Own analyzes the constraints on women’s achievement – the hostile environment in which they write – and the responses, both creative and self-defeating, that this environment provokes. This environment – the historically ordered patriarchy – Rosenman observes as Woolf observed it, from the place of the outsider. Rosenman follows the essay’s analysis of what she considers two large and vague words: patriarchy and feminism. In various chapters Rosenmandiscusses the essay’s exploration of sociology of creativity; of male social institutions – namely, Oxford and Cambridge universities and the British Museum – as gateways at which the initiated are separated from the outsiders; and of female creativity and literary history.

A Summer of Birds $26.95 As the summer of 1821 began, John James Audubon’s ambition to create a comprehensive pictorial record of American birds was still largely a dream when, out of economic necessity, he came to Oakley Plantation, a sprawling estate in Louisiana’s West Feliciana Parish. Teeming with what Audubon described as an almost supernatural abundance of birds, the woods of Oakley galvanized his sense of possibility for one of the most audacious undertakings in the annals of art. In A SUMMER OF BIRDS, journalist and essayist Danny Heitman sorts through the facts and romance of Audubon’s summer at Oakley, drawing upon a rich variety of Audubon’s extensive journals, recent Audubon scholarship, and Robert Penn Warren’s poetry to create a stimulating excursion across time, linking the historical Audubon to the present-day civic and cultural icon. Includes 46 color illustrations plus 18 halftones and 1 map.

American Babylon $29.95 American Babylon traces the dialectic of suburbanization and black power in my hometown of Oakland, California. Encapsulating the postwar history of hundreds of mid-sized American cities, Robert Self’s original and fascinating case study historicizes city-suburb racial segregation as a creation within living memory. We cannot heal or make sense of the nation we live in now without American Babylon. –Nell Irvin Painter, Princeton University, author of Southern History across the Color Line American Babylon promises to be one of those rare works that redefines the field. Robert Self brilliantly weaves together histories that are usually told separately: political economy, labor, black community formation, suburbanization, and civil rights. His analysis of the relationship between ‘black power’ and ‘white power’ opens up a new way of thinking about race, economics, and politics in modern America. –Thomas J. Sugrue, University of Pennsylvania, author of The Origins of the Urban Crisis By grounding his historical narrative in its spatial context, Robert Self offers a new conception of postwar urban history and also of national political history, making it possible to map the relations of social and political power. He has moreover broken free of a traditional limitation of urban histories: rather than limit himself to a single municipality, he tells the story of an entire metropolitan region. This very readable book promises to be highly influential in the fields of urban history, postwar political history, and African American and race relations history. –Philip J. Ethington, University of Southern California, author of The Public City

American New Realism $163.2 In 1910, six young American philosophers came together to rebel against the hegemony of idealist philosophy. Later that year The Program and First Platform of Six Realists appeared in the Journal of Philosophy. In this article, the six vigorously attacked idealism and outlined a new philosophy. A lively debate ensued that not only brought realism back on the map but that also invigorated idealism itself. American New Realism 1910-1920 for the first time brings together the key papers of this debate. A total of 82 papers are included. They range from early responses to what came to be called the new realism, to detailed criticisms of the new realists’ more mature views as they were expressed in their second cooperative effort The New Realism, which appeared in 1912. American new realism mirrors in important respects the resurgence of realism in Great Britain. At the same time, however, there are significant differences, due in part to the strong presence of pragmatism in American philosophy. This collection will appeal to scholars and graduate students who are interested in the history of twentieth-century philosophy or who are interested in the historical background of contemporary discussions in metaphysics and epistemology.

The book also includes an introductory essay and headnotes that serve as a map for the dozens of articles and documents that follow. Through this volume, students and scholars will understand more about some of the most significant moments, trends, aspects, and interpretations of American religious history.

An Anthology of African Art: The Twentieth Century $126.47 The term Modern African Art is not an abuse of language. The 20th century has seen, but not properly documented, the birth, development, and maturation of contemporary art in sub-Saharan Africa, an art which was not simply imported in the 1950s but which finds its sources both in colonial realities and in local cultures and civilizations. An Anthology African Art: The Twentieth Century does not propose to document any one African art, but rather to open up this vast but underexplored field to include a diverse theoretical, historical, geographical, and critical map of this dense and ancient region. Contributions by more than 30 international authors recount the birth of art schools in the 1930s, the development of urban design and public art, and the importance of socially-concerned art during the Independence movements. From Ethiopia, Nigeria, and the Belgian Congo to Ghana, Senegal, and Angola, through the works of hundreds of artists working in every conceivable medium and context, this anthology manages the continental and unique feat of providing a thorough, expansive, diversified, and fully illustrated history of African art in the 20th century.Since 1991, Paris-based Editions Revue Noire has dedicated itself to the multidisciplinary artistic production of the African continent and the African diaspora. Publishers of the critically acclaimed Anthology of African Photography, a comprehensive chronicle of African photography from the mid-1800s to the present, Revue Noire also produces a self-titled magazine devoted to contemporary African art and culture.

Archaeological Theory $175.76 Archaeological Theory: An Introduction is a book that has been needed for the last twenty years. It is an accessible, lively account of current thinking in archaeology. Taking a historical approach and using clear and jargon-free language, the book examines the roots of current debates in the development of archaeology over the last thirty years. Mathew Johnson discusses different ways of approaching the Human Past, ranging from positivism to Postmodernism. He conveys to students that theory is important and can be exciting and stimulating. He reveals the historical origins of different schools of thought and sets theories against the practical problems they are intended to solve, as well as against wider developments in other disciplines. The book discusses what the new Archaeology meant and means, what the differences are between processual and post processual archaeology, what cognitive archaeology is or might be, and addresses politics, gender and evolution within archaeological theory. The author outlines the social and political context of different intellectual tends and provides a route map to a complex and much debated area of the subject. This introduction will be invaluable not only to students encountering archaeology for the first time, but also to archaeologists of all areas and periods needing a lucid and concise guide to current thinking and terminology.

Around the Shores of Lake Superior is an ideal trip planner and a unique guide to the region. As author Margaret Beattie Bogue follows the Lake Superior shoreline clockwise through Minnesota, Ontario, Michigan, and Wisconsin, she evokes the richness of local history and highlights hundreds of landmarks and points of interest that surround the lake.

They also mapped the boundaries of distinct forest types, modern topography and soils information, and the interpretations of expert field ecologists. Each forest, wetland, or prairie type shown on the GLO maps is accompanied by a photograph, a brief description, and a statewide map showing the distribution of each land type.

Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World $375 From the Publisher In 99 full-color maps spread over 175 pages, the Barrington Atlas recreates the entire world of the Greeks and Romans from the British Isles to the Indian subcontinent and deep into North Africa. It spans the territory of more than 75 modern countries. Its large format (13 1/4 x 18 1/4) has been custom-designed by the leading cartographic supplier MapQuest.com, Inc., and is unrivalled for range, clarity and detail. Over 70 experts, aided by an equal number of consultants, have worked from satellite-generated aeronautical charts to return the modern landscape to its ancient appearance, and to mark ancient names and features in accordance with the most up-to-date historical scholarship and archaeological discoveries. Chronologically, the Barrington Atlas spans archaic Greece to the Late Roman Empire, and no more than two standard scales (1:500,000 and 1:1,000,000) are used to represent most regions. Since the 1870s, all attempts to map the classical world comprehensively have failed. This new initiative has finally achieved that elusive and challenging goal. It began in 1988 at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, under the direction of the distinguished ancient historian Richard Talbert, and has been developed with approximately $4.5 million in funding support. The resulting Barrington Atlas is a reference work of permanent value. It has an exceptionally broad appeal to everyone worldwide with an interest in ancient Greeks and Romans, the lands they penetrated, and the peoples and cultures they encountered in Europe, North Africa and Western Asia. Scholars and libraries should find it essential. It is also for students, travelers, and lovers of fine cartography, and foranyone eager to retrace Alexander’s eastward marches, cross the Alps with Hannibal, traverse the Eastern Mediterranean with St. Paul, or ponder the roads, aqueducts and defense works of the Roman Empire. For the new millennium the Barrington Atlas

Before They Were Cardinals $34.95 Mark McGwire, Ozzie Smith, Lou Brock. These famous Cardinals are known by baseball fans around the world. But who and what were the predecessors of these modern-day players and their team? In Before They Were Cardinals, Jon David Cash examines the booms and busts of major-league baseball in St. Louis during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. His in-depth analysis begins with an exploration of the factors that motivated civic leaders to form the city’s first major-league baseball club. Cash delves into the economic rivalry between St. Louis and Chicago, and examines how St. Louis’s attempt to compete with Chicago led to the formation of the St. Louis Brown Stockings in 1875. He then explains why, three years later, despite its initial success, St. Louis baseball quickly vanished from the big-league map.St. Louis baseball was revived with the arrival of German immigrant saloon owner Chris Von der Ahe. Cash explains how Von der Ahe, originally only interested in concession rights, purchased a controlling interest in the Brown Stockings. His riveting account follows the team after Von der Ahe’s purchase, from its entry into the American Association to this new league’s merger with the rival National League in 1891. He chronicles Von der Ahe’s monetary downturn, and the club’s decline as well, following the merger.Before They Were Cardinals provides vivid portraits of the ball players and the participants involved in the baseball war between the American Association and the National League. Cash points out significant differences, such as Sunday beer sales, between the two leagues. In addition, excerpts taken from Chicago and St. Louis newspapers make the on-field contests andoff-field rivalries come alive. Cash concludes this lively historical narrative with an appendix that traces the issue of race in baseball during this period.The excesses of modern-day baseball — players jumping contracts or holding out for more money, gambling on games, and drink

Cartographies of Travel and Navigation $48.12 Finding one’s way with a map is a relatively recent phenomenon. In premodern times, maps were used, if at all, mainly for planning journeys in advance, not for guiding travelers on the road. With the exception of navigational sea charts, the use of maps by travelers only became common in the modern era; indeed, in the last two hundred years, maps have become the most ubiquitous and familiar genre of modern cartography. Examining the historical relationship between travelers, navigation, and maps, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation considers the cartographic response to the new modalities of modern travel brought about by technological and institutional developments in the twentieth century. Highlighting the ways in which the travelers, operators, and planners of modern transportation systems value maps as both navigation tools and as representatives of a radical new mobility, this collection brings the cartography of travel–by road, sea, rail, and air–to the forefront, placing maps at the center of the history of travel and movement. Richly and colorfully illustrated, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation ably fills the void in historical literature on transportation mapping.

Cemeteries of Unicoi County $26.01 This labor of love began as one of the first major projects of the newly-formed Unicoi County Historical Society in the early 1970s. By 1973, about 35 cemeteries, all in the northern part of the county, had been copied. Fifteen years went by, then in the winter of 1987-1988 a new committee was formed and the project was begun again. The committee found that in 1960, 15 cemeteries, mostly in the southern part of the county, had been copied. So a total of 50 cemeteries had been recorded. Final copying began in April 1988 and was completed a little over a year later. The total of 166 copied included an update of the 50 cemeteries done earlier.Included in the findings of this cemetery research were 87 Union Army veterans’ stones and 7 Confederate Army veterans’ iron crosses. Also, 75 persons, in 23 cemeteries, were found buried prior to the formation of Unicoi County in January 1876. Their names read like a roll call of the pioneers of the county, and the fact that these same names predominate today shows the deep roots of Unicoi County families.Locating cemeteries was interesting and challenging. Most were not shown on the quadrangle maps of the county, and many were small private plots, sometimes abandoned. Several additional cemeteries were found after 1989. These have been added to the map, and listings are included in this revised edition.

Changing Visions: Human Cognitive Maps: Past, Present, and Future $120.6 We all carry a picture of the world in our mind, but is that map an assuredly true layout of the reality that surrounds us? If not, how can we use it to guide our steps toward the 21st century and beyond without creating shocks and surprises that impair our well-being and threaten our survival? We shall not survive, either as individuals or as a species, if our maps fail to reflect accurately the nature of the world that surrounds us. The authors attempt, through reviewing the origins, development, and current changes in individual and social cognitive maps, to prompt readers to become more conscious of their own map, and hence be better able to adapt it to the exigencies of our changing world. The book ends with a vision of the global bio- and socio-sphere: the unified cognitive map which is emerging in laboratories and workshops of the new physics, the new biology, the new ecology, and the avant-garde branches of the social and historical sciences. But Changing Visions recognizes that these sciences alone cannot promote the formation of faithful maps of lived reality, and that religion, common sense, and even art can fill in and sharpen one’s world-picture.

Cities in Ruins $45 The attacks in New York on September 11, 2001, and in Madrid on March 11, 2004, provoked diverse political reactions, but the imminence of the ruins triggered a collective historical awakening. In Cities in Ruins, Cecilia Enjuto Rangel argues that the portrayal in poetry of the modern city as a disintegrated, ruined space is part of a critique of the visions of progress and the historical process of modernization that developed during the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century. Enjuto Rangel’’s study investigates the virtually unexplored map of modern ruins in modern poetry. She interprets modern poetry on ruins as a critique of both capitalist definitions of progress and the devastating effects of modern warfare. Furthermore, she argues that the representation of ruins provokes a historical awakening that empowers the text, and the reader, with political and historical agency.
