Free Download Sidney Toy, "Castles: Their Construction and History "
English | ISBN: 0486248984 | | 256 pages | EPUB | 17 MB
The art of fortification had reached a high state of development even at the dawn of history. Powerful military works, dating from the remotest periods, have been found in Asia Minor, in Greece, and in the basins of the Tigris, the Euphrates, and the Nile rivers. The medieval castle, with its strategic, crenellated ramparts and aura of legend and romance, represents perhaps the most familiar form of a long-crucial art.

Free Download Ivan Sainsaulieu, "Care Staff Mobilisation in the Hospital: Fight or Cooperate?"
English | ISBN: 981199353X | 2023 | 110 pages | PDF | 1025 KB
This book offers a novel examination of the relations, actions, and practices of healthcare workers, analysed in terms of collective mobilisation. Based on successive surveys conducted over a twenty-year period in public and private hospitals, it brings a rich new conceptualisation of both social movements and care work. We've all witnessed the collective mobilisation at play in hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic. In such a structured, hierarchical environment, the parallel with social movements highlights the ethical and collective dimensions of care work, as well as the bonds of solidarity and identification with the collective. Yet, healthcare workers are often caught in a dilemma between fighting against underfunding and deteriorating working conditions on the one hand, and cooperating to keep the system standing and provide the best care possible for patients on the other. The author's approach in terms of consensual and conflictual mobilisations brings a fresh theoretical and empirical contribution to the literature on social movements, medical sociology, public health, and the sociology of labour, whilst in-depth case studies bring to light the experiences of healthcare workers and enrich the narrative throughout.

Free Download Canterbury: A Medieval City By Catherine Royer-Hemet
2010 | 230 Pages | ISBN: 1443825522 | PDF | 2 MB
Between the Celtic tribe of the Iron Age-the Cantiaci-and the twenty-first-century inhabitants of Canterbury, three millenia stand during which the city has enjoyed unparalleled fame, particularly since it became the religious heart of the country in AD 597. While ambling through the streets of modern Canterbury, one is able to-if careful enough to do so-get the feel of the medieval city. There must be reasons for that enduring impact of the past and it might be because of the overwhelming wealth of people who have left their mark as well as events of momentous importance that took place there. Canterbury: A Medieval City will take the reader on a trip through time, space and history, as well as literature. It will enable him to apprehend the magnitude of the history of the place and the reasons why Canterbury has become the magnet it is nowadays for people from all over the world, the mecca for tourists as it is advertised on some websites. While illustrious figures are dealt with in the articles contained in the book, such as Saint Augustine, Thomas Becket, and Geoffrey Chaucer-who account for the renown of the place and have indeed helped to shape national identity-it is also possible to catch a glimpse of the less notorious personalities and facts that have also worked to give Canterbury its deeply ingrained identity: people like priors, as well as the many different ways which the city functioned.

Free Download Cynthia Sugars, "Canadian Gothic: Literature, History, and the Spectre of Self-Invention "
English | ISBN: 0708327001 | 2014 | 291 pages | PDF | 4 MB
In Canadian Gothic, Cynthia Sugars explores the origins and history of the Canadian gothic tradition, tracing the ways that the gothic genre has been reinvented for a specifically Canadian context. Sugars demonstrates how, from very early on, the Gothic has held a precarious position in Canadian literature. Canada had long been perceived as an empty terrain unhaunted by a historical tradition and incapable of inspiring ghosts or gothic tales. Sugars argues instead that many Canadian writers have created a distinctly Canadian Gothic, one expressed in a postcolonial context and found in early aboriginal and diasporic writings. Among the authors she discusses are Dionne Brand, David Chariandy, Wayson Choy, Hiromi Goto, Suzette Mayr, and Michael Ondaatje.

Free Download Can America Govern Itself? (SSRC Anxieties of Democracy) By Frances E. Lee (editor), Nolan McCarty (editor)
2019 | 368 Pages | ISBN: 1108739725 | PDF | 5 MB
Can America Govern Itself? brings together a diverse group of distinguished scholars to analyze how rising party polarization and economic inequality have affected the performance of American governing institutions. It is organized around two themes: the changing nature of representation in the United States; and how changes in the political environment have affected the internal processes of institutions, overall government performance, and policy outcomes. The chapters in this volume analyze concerns about power, influence and representation in American politics, the quality of deliberation and political communications, the management and implementation of public policy, and the performance of an eighteenth century constitution in today's polarized political environment. These renowned scholars provide a deeper and more systematic grasp of what is new, and what is perennial in challenges to democracy at a fraught moment.

Free Download Troy Taylor, "Cabinet of Curiosities 3: The Haunted History of America's Prisons, Hospitals and Asylums in 20 Objects"
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1892523930 | EPUB | pages: 302 | 1.6 mb
CABINET OF CURIOSITIES 3 THE HAUNTED HISTORY OF AMERICA'S PRISONS, HOSPITALS & ASYLUMS IN 20 OBJECTS When compiling a list of America's most haunted places, prisons, hospitals and asylums are among the most prominent locations to be found. The amount of trauma, pain, and terror experienced by the men and women locked behind cold steel bars, trapped in beds that will undoubtedly be where they take their last breath, or shuffling down corridors in a state of confusion and madness leaves an indelible impression behind. The horrible events that occurred to send people to such places, combined with the terrible things that happened behind the walls, often cause the spirits of dead to linger behind. America's prisons, hospitals and asylums can be terrifying places - for those in this world and the next. In this new collection of relics from Troy Taylor's Cabinet of Curiosities, readers will take a startling and often unnerving look behind the locked doors and high stone walls of the most haunted prisons, hospitals and asylums in America. But this is not just another book on haunted places, but a chilling history of the items that will be forever linked to crime and insanity in our country's history. Each object - from the mundane to the inexplicable - tells a lost, forgotten or forbidden tale, revealing the eerie background of locations the reader only thought they knew! From cell door keys to a wooden gun, a plaster head, electric chair, cooking spoon, autopsy table, lobotomy tool, scalpel, an unexplainable stain that refuses to go away, and much more! This is the scariest entry in the series so far, but come inside and take a look around - just be careful not to let the door lock behind you on your way into the cell!
