Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The Restoration sounds cheerful, as if England simply dusted off the monarchy and carried on. Ronald Hutton?s The Restoration is here to remind us that history is rarely so obliging. Covering England and Wales from 1658 to 1667, this is the story of a country trying to put itself back together after civil war, republic, religious upheaval, political exhaustion, and the awkward realisation that nobody entirely agreed what ?normal? was supposed to look like. Charles II returns, the monarchy is restored, and everyone politely pretends this solves everything. It does not. Hutton digs into the politics, religion, power struggles, compromises, anxieties, and opportunism of the period with scholarly precision. Bishops, Parliament, royalists, republicans, dissenters, courtiers, clergy, and nervous local officials all jostle for space in a settlement that was less a neat reset than a national negotiation conducted under pressure. This 2001 Clarendon Paperbacks edition, in good condition, is a solid copy of a serious academic history. Ideal for readers who like the 17th century messy, argumentative, and full of people discovering that bringing back the king was only the beginning of the problem. The Restoration is history with wigs, theology, suspicion, and paperwork ? proof that even a political comeback tour needs administration.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fine. Reprint. THE MOZART-DA PONTE OPERAS. The Cultural and Musical Background to Le Nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni and Cosi fan Tutte. Andrew Steptoe. Clarendon Paperbacks, Oxford. 2001 Reprint ISBN 0198162219 274pp Illustrated Paperback. Mozart's collaborations with the librettist Lorenzo da Ponte led to the composition of three of the greatest masterpieces in all opera, Le Nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, and Cosi fan tutte. The aim of this book is to guide the reader to deeper understanding and enjoyment of these enigmatic works, not so much through detailed musical analysis as through setting the scene for their composition. The author examines the cultural and social context in which they were written, the sort of audience who might have attended, and their tastes and expectations. He considers Mozart's own intentions and aspirations for these works, composed over a period of rapid intellectual and political change, during which his beliefs, ambitions, and position in society changed radically. At a musical level, Mozart's work underwent crucial stylistic developments that are manifest in these three operas. We are also given clues to da Ponte's view of opera and the type of entertainment he set out to create. Finally, the author looks at the practicalities of opera production in Mozart's time, all of which would have influenced the final creation of these works.

Synopsis: This book deals with nuclear and particle physics at an introductory level, giving an up-to-date description of nuclear and particle physics at a level suitable for undergraduates. A unique balance of particle and nuclear physics is presented in this outstanding introduction to the field. Nuclear properties, decay, structure and reactions are covered initially, followed by discussions of nuclear forces, B-decay, and elementary particles and their interactions. Further chapters include strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions, and an up-to-date presentation of the problems facing particle physics. Since the primary test of a physical theory is by examining its ability to make correct quantitative predictions, the reader is encouraged, whenever possible, to appreciate the quantitative aspect of a phenomenon in addition to learning a descriptive explanation.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Brand New. This Paperback Edition Published by Oxfo. 338 + xx pp. Copy in pristine state. Synopsis: This is a paperback edition of a highly acclaimed study of English popular radicalism during the period between the anti-Jacobin government `Terror' of the 1790s and the beginnings of Chartism. Challenging conventional distinctions between `high' and `low' culture, Iain McCalman brilliantly reveals the links between the political underworld and literary culture, poverty, crime, and prophetic religion. Drawing on information from spy reports and contemporary literature, the book traces for the first time the history of the underground revolutionary-republican grouping founded by the agrarian reformer, Thomas Spence. Challenging conventional distinctions between 'high' and 'low' culture, McCalman illuminates the darker, more populist sides of Romanticism. His underworld of ideas links the Shelleys to pornographer-revolutionaries and political blackmailers, millenarian prophecy to discourses of blasphemy, black revolution and saturnalian theatricality, and radical journalism to the Grub Street undergrowth of bawdy and pornography which sprang up in the opening years of Queen Victoria's reign. Radical Underworld broadens the conventional boundaries of popular politics and culture by illuminating a political underworld connected with poverty, crime, prophetic religion and literary culture. It is a model of cultural history and a major re-evaluation of its topic. 'The Radical's Arms' by George Cruikshank, 1819, British Museum (Jacket Illustration) (illustratore).…
