In July 1588 the Spanish Armada sailed from Corunna to conquer England. Three weeks later an English fireship attack in the Channel--and then a fierce naval battle--foiled the planned invasion. Many myths still surround these events. The genius of Sir Francis Drake is exalted, while Spain's efforts are belittled. But what really happened during that fateful encounter? Drawing on archives from around the world, Colin Martin and Geoffrey Parker also deploy vital new evidence from Armada shipwrecks off the coasts of Ireland and Scotland. Their gripping, beautifully illustrated account provides a fresh understanding of how the rival fleets came into being; how they looked, sounded, and smelled; and what happened when they finally clashed. Looking beyond the events of 1588 to the complex politics which made war between England and Spain inevitable, and at the political and dynastic aftermath, Armada: The Spanish Enterprise and England's Deliverance In 1588 (Yale UP, 2022) deconstructs the many legends to reveal why, ultimately, the bold Spanish mission failed. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history. He has written for Chatham House's International Affairs, the Institute of Historical Research's Reviews in History and the University of Rouen's online periodical Cercles.

All Souls College Oxford was one of the meeting points of English public intellectuals in the twentieth century. Its Fellows prided themselves on agreeing in everything except their opinions. They included Cabinet Ministers from all the three major parties, and academics of diverse political allegiances, who met for frank conversations and lively disagreements. Davenport-Hines investigates historic strands of conservative thought: aversion to rapid and disruptive change, mistrust of majority opinions, prizing of community loyalties and pride over the assertion of aggressive individualism, the recession of the Church of England, and the impact of militarism. Conservative Thinkers from All Souls College Oxford (Boydell & Brewer, 2022) draws on the ideas of two conservative thinkers, 'Trimmer' Halifax and Michael Oakeshott, to examine the conservative assumptions, ideas, writings and influence of seven Fellows of All Souls from the last century. Their brands of conservatism regarded popular democracy as an unavoidable necessity which must be managed rather than loved. Their scepticism about the rule of the people was rooted in a meritocratic commitment to the government of the wise. They disliked plutocracy, regretted consumerism, and loathed sloppy and self-serving thought. All were more or less dissatisfied with the workings of the Westminster parliamentary model. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history.

In 1945 the Soviet Union controlled half of Europe and was a founding member of the United Nations. By 1991, it had an army four million strong with five thousand nuclear-tipped missiles and was the second biggest producer of oil in the world. But soon afterward the union sank into an economic crisis and was torn apart by nationalist separatism. Its collapse was one of the seismic shifts of the twentieth century. Thirty years on, Vladislav Zubok offers a major reinterpretation of the final years of the USSR, refuting the notion that the breakup of the Soviet order was inevitable. Instead, Zubok reveals how Gorbachev's misguided reforms, intended to modernize and democratize the Soviet Union, deprived the government of resources and empowered separatism. Collapse: The Fall of the Soviet Union (Yale UP, 2021) sheds new light on Russian democratic populism, the Baltic struggle for independence, the crisis of Soviet finances--and the fragility of authoritarian state power.

Quelle belle conversation avec un frère de lumière, Marius Dupuy, autour de la reconnexion à soi, à l'aspect plus SUBTIL de la vie, réconcilier les énergies masculines et féminines, devenir un humain qui ASSUME ses différentes dimensions de son être.Un explorateur du Yoga Ashtanga, des arts martiaux traditionnels, à différentes formes de méditation, de respiration, d'exploration du monde interne, mais aussi, un mouver ancré dans la matière avec une vie de chantier, d'ingénieur, d'expatrié, de facilitateur.C'est à un moment unique que j'accueille Marius, en pleine TRANSITION, entre la vie plus "connecté" de Bali et le retour à l'énergie Yang de Paris.On aborde ensemble le thème de l'accompagnement ÉMOTIONNEL qu'il souhaite proposer en France, autour des Men's Circle s(cercles d'hommes), ces espaces privilégiés d'ouverture du cœur pour les hommes.Qu'est-ce que la masculinité sacrée ? Comment faire la paix avec son féminin ? Comment connecté avec une tribu de frères de lumière ? Quelle place à la vulnérabilité ? Comment accélérer ses progrès dans la vie grâce aux retours d'expériences de ses pairs... ?Un tas de questions EFFRAYANTES pour beaucoup d'homme qui se retrouve dissociés de leurs émotions et incapables de se réaliser pleinement dans cette vie.Une occasion pour Marius et moi de partager nos propres transformations et ÉVEILS émotionnels et spirituels. On explore ensemble les pratiques martiales, le yoga Ashtanga, l'entrepreneuriat, comme vecteurs potentiels d'émancipation.Une conversation à la fois puissantes et DOUCES avec un rythme très posé qui rend l'exploration de ces sujets, très agréables.

The British monarchy is at a turning point. Concise and engaging, Jeremy Black's A Brief History of the British Monarchy: From the Iron Age to King Charles III (Robinson, 2022) charts the very beginnings of British reign through to the longest serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth II - and looks forward to the reign of King Charles III. Much more than a linear history, this is the intertwined story of royalty and state, of divisions, invasions, rivalries, death and glory; the story of nation fates deeply tied with the personal endeavours of monarchs through the ages. Black expertly weaves together thematic chapters from the origins of monarchy, medieval times and sixteenth-century developments, to the crises of the seventeenth-century, settlement and imperialism, and the challenges of the modern age. Exploring the House of Wessex, the Norman Conquest, Henry VIII and the Tudors, Victorianism and key events such as abdication of Edward VIII, this book is a necessary and comprehensive guide to the British Monarchy and how it has shaped history - and our lives today. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history.

Les "cercles de fées" intriguent les scientifiques depuis plus d'un siècle. Ils sont formés d'une série de cercles arides, bordés par des herbes. D'un diamètre compris entre 2 et 12 mètres, ces disques sont séparés les uns des autres par des distances assez similaires. On les trouve dans des régions plutôt désertiques de Namibie et d'Australie. Les hypothèses n'ont pas manqué pour tâcher d'expliquer cet étrange phénomène. Certaines ont pu emporter l'adhésion, à un moment donné, comme le rôle éventuel des termites. D'autres sont plus farfelues. En effet, pour certains, ces mystérieux cercles porteraient la marque des extraterrestres. Aujourd'hui, cependant, il semble bien que les scientifiques aient réussi à résoudre l'énigme des "cercles de fées". Pour y parvenir, ils se sont livrés à diverses études sur le terrain, utilisant des drones, des capteurs d'humidité et d'autres instruments. Et ils sont arrivés à une conclusion assez surprenante : ce sont les plantes elles-mêmes qui seraient à l'origine de ces formations. Les herbes les plus vivaces se regrouperaient aux abords des cercles, alors qu'au centre une végétation plus frêle, ne résistant pas à la sécheresse, dépérirait très vite. Au contraire, les hautes herbes rassemblées autour des cercles produiraient de l'ombre et, en se massant à ces endroits, favoriseraient l'infiltration de l'eau de pluie dans le sol. Ce surplus d'eau gagnerait les racines des plantes avoisinantes, facilitant ainsi l'essor de la végétation. Autrement dit, ce sont les plantes qui se seraient disposées de cette manière, pour tirer le meilleur parti de conditions climatiques marquées par une forte sécheresse. Cette auto-régulation contribuerait donc au maintien de l'écosystème de ces régions. Restait à expliquer la forme circulaire de ces figures, et leur espacement régulier. Pour cela, les chercheurs ont recouru au modèle défini, au début des années 1950, par le mathématicien anglais Alan Turing. Il expliquait que certains systèmes, animal comme végétal, peuvent susciter l'apparition de structures aux motifs très stables. Ces "structures de Turing", comme on les appelle, ont notamment été utilisées pour expliquer les rayures parsemant le pelage des zèbres ou les taches des guépards. Learn more about your ad choices.

The French Revolution facilitated the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, but after gaining power he knew that his first task was to end it. In this book William Doyle describes how he did so, beginning with the three large issues that had destabilized revolutionary France: war, religion, and monarchy. Doyle shows how, as First Consul of the Republic, Napoleon resolved these issues: first by winning the war, then by forging peace with the Church, and finally by making himself a monarch. Napoleon at Peace: How to End a Revolution (Reaktion Books, 2022) ends by discussing Napoleon's one great failure--his attempt to restore the colonial empire destroyed by war and slave rebellion. By the time this endeavor was abandoned, the fragile peace with Great Britain had broken down, and the Napoleonic wars had begun. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history. He has written for Chatham House's International Affairs, the Institute of Historical Research's Reviews in History and the University of Rouen's online periodical Cercles.

In On a Knife Edge: How Germany Lost the First World War (Cambridge UP, 2022), Holger Afflerbach argues that the outcome of the war was actually in the balance until relatively late in the war. Using new evidence from diaries, letters and memoirs, he fundamentally revises our understanding of German strategy from the decision to go to war and the failure of the western offensive to the radicalisation of Germany's war effort under Hindenburg and Ludendorff and the ultimate collapse of the Central Powers. He uncovers the struggles in wartime Germany between supporters of peace and hardliners who wanted to fight to the finish. He suggests that Germany was not nearly as committed to all-out conquest as previous accounts argue. Numerous German peace advances could have offered the opportunity to end the war before it dragged Europe into the abyss. Charles Coutinho, PH.
