Hardcover. Condizione: Like New. Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with strong joints, and sharp corners just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs and shelf-wear to the dustjacket. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight. Also, no pen-marks and not from a library so no such stamps or labels. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In this major study, the history of the French and British trading empires in the early modern Mediterranean is used as a setting to test a new approach to the history of ignorance: how can we understand the very act of ignoring - in political, economic, religious, cultural and scientific communication - as a fundamental trigger that sets knowledge in motion Zwierlein explores whether the Scientific Revolution between 1650 and 1750 can be understood as just one of what were in fact many simultaneous epistemic movements and considers the role of the European empires in this phenomenon. Deconstructing central categories like the mercantilist 'national', the exchange of 'confessions' between Western and Eastern Christians and the bridging of cultural gaps between European and Ottoman subjects, Zwierlein argues that understanding what was not known by historical agents can be just as important as the history of knowledge itself.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - For the last decade, early modern studies have significantly been reshaped by raising new and different questions on the uses of religion. This religious turn' has generated new discussion of the social processes at work in early modern Europe and their cultural effects from the struggle over religious rites and doctrines to the persecution of secret adherents to forbidden practices. The issue of religious pluralisation has been mostly debated in terms of dissent and escalation. But confessional controversy did not always erupt into hostilities over how to symbolize and perform the sacred nor lead to a paralysis of social agency. The order of the day may often have been to suspend confessional allegiances rather than enforce religious conflict, suggesting a pragmatic rather than polemic handling of religious plurality. This raises the urgent question of how 'normal' transconfessional and even transreligious interaction was produced in a context of highly sharpened and always present reflexivity on religious differences. Our volume takes up this question and explores it from an interdisciplinary and interconfessional perspective. The title 'Forgetting Faith ' raises the question whether it was necessary or indeed possible to sidestep religious issues in specific contexts and for specific purposes. This does not mean, however, to describe early modern culture as a process of secularization. Rather, the collection invites discussion of the specific ways available to deal with confessional conflict in an oblivional mode, precisely because faith still mattered more than many other social paradigms emerging at that time, such as nationhood, ethnic origin or class defined through property.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Was the emperor as sovereign allowed to seize the property of his subjects? Was this treated differently in late medieval Roman law vis-a-vis the theory and practice of zabt in Mughal India? How did political sovereignty relate to the church's powers and to trade? How about maritime sovereignty after Grotius? How was the East India Company as a corporation interacting with an Indian Nawab? How did the shogunate negotiate sovereignty in early modern Japan? This volume addresses such questions through thoroughly researched historical case studies, covering the disciplines of History, Political Sciences, and Law.Contributors: Nicholas Abbott, Tiraana Bains, Michael P. Breen, Sylvio Hermann De Franceschi, Philippe Denis, David Dyzenhaus, Andrew Fitzmaurice, Joshua Freed, Kajo Kubala, Daniel Lee, Fabrice Micallef, Kenneth Pennington, Mark Ravina, and Cornel Zwierlein. Early Modern sovereignty arose as both a product of and a causal agent behind the establishment of European statehood. Beyond Bodin, Hobbes and Pufendorf, the volume also addresses the methodological challenges of studying early modern sovereignties from the Ottoman Empire to India and East Asia.
