An unorthodox history
British Jews since 1945
by Gavin Schaffer
A bold, new history of British Jewish life since the Second World War. Historian Gavin Schaffer wrestles Jewish history away from the question of what others have thought about Jews, focusing instead on the experiences of Jewish people themselves. Exploring the complexities of inclusion and exclusion, he shines a light on groups that have been marginalised within Jewish history and culture, such as queer Jews, Jews married to non-Jews, Israel-critical Jews and even Messianic Jews, while offering a fresh look at Jewish activism, Jewish religiosity and Zionism. Weaving these stories together, Schaffer argues that there are good reasons to consider Jewish Britons as a unitary whole, even as debates rage about who is entitled to call themselves a Jew. Challenging the idea that British Jewish life is in terminal decline. An unorthodox history demonstrates that Jewish Britain is thriving and that Jewishness is deeply embedded in the country's history and culture.

Bertolt Brechts »Terzinen über die Liebe«
by Bertolt Brecht, Jan Knopf
Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert, daß Kunst vermag, »die Schönheit in ihrer reitzenden Gestalt«, wie Johann Jacob Bodmer 1741 zu Dantes Francesca-Darstellung formulierte, so abzuschildern, »als ob der Vorwurf derselben in der nackenden Natur vor Sinnen geleget wäre«. Die Schönheit von Brechts Versen, ihre nachhaltige Wirkung und der Vergleich mit lyrischen Bearbeitungen desselben Stoffs aus sechs Jahrhunderten beweisen: die Terzinen über die Liebe gehören ins Pantheon der Weltliteratur.

Transatlantic defiance
The militant Irish republican movement in America, 1923–45
by Gavin Wilk
This book examines the militant Irish republican movement in the United States from the final months of the Irish Civil War through to the Second World War. The narrative carefully and creatively intertwines the personalities, events and policies that shaped the activism during this period and shows the evolution of its inherently transnational nature. Through a bottom-up historical analysis that incorporates an examination of more than eighty archival collections in the US, Ireland and Britain, the book presents for the first time an account of the anti-Treaty IRA veterans who arrived in the US after the Irish Civil War. Upon their settlement in Irish-American communities, these republicans directly influenced and guided the US-based militant republican organisation, Clan na Gael, transformed the overall dynamics of militant Irish republicanism in America and provided leadership and co-ordination for an IRA bombing campaign. With the inclusion of these veterans' stories, the book provides a fresh interpretation of the inter-war movement in America that shows it to be far from as stagnant, wayward and detached from Irish affairs as has previously been claimed. ;
