This book is the first to examine the relation between German folklore studies and colonial anthropology in the age of empire. It examines the way scholars compared traditional cultures that were thousands of kilometres apart and the increasing importance of racial theories after the end of the First World War.
Volume XIII in The Oxford Edition of the Sermons of John Donne contains nine sermons preached by Donne as Dean of St Paul's Cathedral between February and June of 1626. For the first time the sermons appear with a full critical apparatus, including headnotes, suggestions for further reading, glosses, and extensive commentaries.
A Widow's Vengeance after the Wars of Religion is a dramatic account of the impact of the Wars of Religion on daily life. Based on neglected archival sources and an exceptional criminal trial, it recovers the experiences of women, peasants, and foot soldiers, who are marginalized in most historical accounts.
