Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published eight years after the first volume in Documents of Brotherly Love, this second volume continues to refine the narrative of " Dutch Aid to Swiss Anabaptists." In contrast to the first volume's scope, spreading across seven decades following 1635, the correspondence of the present volume dates from only a two year span, 1710-1711. Readers now gain further access to materials archived ( primarily in Amsterdam) beginning in the seventeenth century. Though most were carefully inventoried in the late nineteenth century, and microfilmed (poorly) in the twentieth, they were only selectively consulted and quoted by historians. The international story unfolding through this epistolary conversation was thus only partial represented in either scholarly or popular history. The unusual strength of the Christian bond powering this episode of "Brotherly Love" is evident beyond its north-south dynamics, in its eastward reach to Swiss-deriving Mennonite Communities south of Heidelberg, or westward to Germantown in Pennsylvania, from which a nascent Mennonite community looked to both Dutch and Palatine leaders for advice. Readers can thus newly trace the arc of brotherly aid from an insecure Bernese haystack to donated land in the Netherlands in 1711 or a home carved from the woods of Pennsylvania in 1718.

Book excerpt: The eight essays in this volume approach the study of the Radical Reformation from new perspectives and challenge some of the basic assumptions of the field. Some critique and problematize the typologies developed to distinguish Reformation radicals from each other and from the Magisterial Reformers. Others apply an equally iconoclastic approach to existing scholarship on the relationship between religious change and socio-political radicalism in early modern Europe. A final group concentrate specifically on revising the history of Anabaptism by tracing its long-term development across the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and recovering the lives of normal Anabaptists to write a true social history of the movement that avoids relying on the biographies and prescriptive writings of its leadership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through innovative interdisciplinary methodologies and fresh avenues of inquiry, the nine essays collected in A Peculiar Mixture endeavor to transform how we understand the bewildering multiplicity and complexity that characterized the experience of German-speaking people in the middle colonies. They explore how the various cultural expressions of German speakers helped them bridge regional, religious, and denominational divides and eventually find a way to partake in America’s emerging national identity. Instead of thinking about early American culture and literature as evolving continuously as a singular entity, the contributions to this volume conceive of it as an ever-shifting and tangled “web of contact zones.” They present a society with a plurality of different native and colonial cultures interacting not only with one another but also with cultures and traditions from outside the colonies, in a “peculiar mixture” of Old World practices and New World influences. Aside from the editors, the contributors are Rosalind J. Beiler, Patrick M. Erben, Cynthia G. Falk, Marie Basile McDaniel, Philip Otterness, Liam Riordan, Matthias Schönhofer, and Marianne S. Wokeck.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Respect for animals has always been a part of human consciousness. Poets, thinkers, philosophers, scientists and statesmen have long celebrated our compassion towards Earth's other beasts.Awe for the Tiger, Love for the Lamb compiles the most significant statements of sensibility to animals in the history of thought. From the myths of the ancient world to the Middle Ages to Darwin and beyond, Preece captures the most telling and fascinating accounts of humankind's relationship to the wild world, placing them in historical context. Jung called it an unconscious identity with animals, while Wordsworth saw it as the primal sympathy which having been must ever be. Linking the diverse chords of human experience that are touched by the animal world, Preece shows that despite a historical thread of cruelty, there still remains in all humanity a constant underlying concern for other beings as an integral part of the moral community. With musings and meditations from Lao Tse to Mohammed, from Plato to Jane Goodall, from classical religion to parliamentary proceedings, Awe for the Tiger, Love for the Lamb is an original, superbly researched history that deepens our understanding of all living beings.
