Here is a description of the classic children's book The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch, written by Ronda Armitage and illustrated by David Armitage: “Every day, Mr Grinling, the lighthouse keeper, cleans and polishes his light to make sure it shines brightly at night. At lunchtime he tucks into a delicious and well-deserved lunch, prepared by his wife. But Mr Grinling isn't the only one who enjoys the tasty food. Will Mrs Grinling think of a way to stop the greedy seagulls from stealing the lighthouse keeper's lunch?” There have been a number of sequel books to The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch, which was originally published in 1977. Ronda Armitage, originally from New Zealand, first went to England in 1966. Her husband, David, was born in Tasmania. In the late 1970s, they moved to England to stay. Ronda was a primary school teacher for several years and she is a trained counsellor, specializing in family therapy. She has written more than 30 books including several non-fiction books for older students. Most of Ronda's children's books are illustrated by her husband, David, who is an artist. In addition to his work as a children's book illustrator, David Armitage is regarded as one of the UK's leading abstract artists. Beachy Head Lighthouse, England. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. This interview was conducted at the Belle Tout Lighthouse in England in July.

Eating One's Own: Examining Civil War is based on an in-depth filmed conversation between Howard Burton and intellectual historian David Armitage, the Lloyd C. Blankfein Professor of History at Harvard University. This conversation covers Prof. Armitage's extensive research on the history of ideas of civil war from Ancient Rome to the present. A salient feature of his work is a strong focus on etymology as it relates to our understanding of how people interpreted (or misinterpreted) and perceived events in history which results in a fascinating exploration of how our understanding of various concepts has been prejudiced by past societies and past beliefs that we might not even be aware of, and how they, in turn, go on to influence other societies; and how this cumulative process frames our understanding of these ideas.

Stella Ghervas's Conquering Peace: From the Enlightenment to the European Union (Harvard University Press, 2021) is a bold new look at war and diplomacy in Europe that traces the idea of a unified continent in attempts since the eighteenth century to engineer lasting peace. Political peace in Europe has historically been elusive and ephemeral. Stella Ghervas shows that since the eighteenth century, European thinkers and leaders in pursuit of lasting peace fostered the idea of European unification. Bridging intellectual and political history, Ghervas draws on the work of philosophers from Abbé de Saint-Pierre, who wrote an early eighteenth-century plan for perpetual peace, to Rousseau and Kant, as well as statesmen such as Tsar Alexander I, Woodrow Wilson, Winston Churchill, Robert Schuman, and Mikhail Gorbachev. She locates five major conflicts since 1700 that spurred such visionaries to promote systems of peace in Europe: the War of the Spanish Succession, the Napoleonic Wars, World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. Each moment generated a "spirit" of peace among monarchs, diplomats, democratic leaders, and ordinary citizens. The engineers of peace progressively constructed mechanisms and institutions designed to prevent future wars. Arguing for continuities from the ideals of the Enlightenment, through the nineteenth-century Concert of Nations, to the institutions of the European Union and beyond, Conquering Peace illustrates how peace as a value shaped the idea of a unified Europe long before the EU came into being. Today the EU is widely criticized as an obstacle to sovereignty and for its democratic deficit. Seen in the long-range perspective of the history of peacemaking, however, this European society of states emerges as something else entirely: a step in the quest for a less violent world. Stella Ghervas is Professor of Russian History at Newcastle University (UK) and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. She is also an Associate of the History Department at Harvard University and Visiting Professor at Harvard Summer School since 2015. Her main interests are in intellectual and international history of modern Europe, with special reference to the history of peace and peace-making, and in Russia's intellectual and maritime history. She is the author of Alexandre Stourdza (1791-1854): Un intellectuel orthodoxe face à l'Occident (1999), Réinventer la tradition: Alexandre Stourdza et l'Europe de la Sainte-Alliance (which won several book prizes, including the Guizot Prize from the Académie Française, 2008) and Conquering Peace: From the Enlightenment to the European Union (2021), and the editor of Penser l'Europe – Quarante ans d'études européennes à Genève (2003), Lieux d'Europe: Mythes et limites (2008) and A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Enlightenment (Bloomsburg, with David Armitage, 2020).

She locates five major conflicts since 1700 that spurred such visionaries to promote systems of peace in Europe: the War of the Spanish Succession, the Napoleonic Wars, World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. Each moment generated a "spirit" of peace among monarchs, diplomats, democratic leaders, and ordinary citizens. The engineers of peace progressively constructed mechanisms and institutions designed to prevent future wars. Arguing for continuities from the ideals of the Enlightenment, through the nineteenth-century Concert of Nations, to the institutions of the European Union and beyond, Conquering Peace illustrates how peace as a value shaped the idea of a unified Europe long before the EU came into being. Today the EU is widely criticized as an obstacle to sovereignty and for its democratic deficit. Seen in the long-range perspective of the history of peacemaking, however, this European society of states emerges as something else entirely: a step in the quest for a less violent world.

El 16 de septiembre, la Fundación Rafael del Pino organizó la conferencia “Tiempo, espacio y el futuro del pasado: los horizontes de la Historia”, pronunciada por David Armitage, Lloyd C. Blankfein Professor of History de la Universidad de Harvard. En su conferencia, David Armitage hizo un llamamiento a los historiadores y a todo aquel interesado en el papel de la Historia en la sociedad contemporánea debido a la necesidad de recuperar y revitalizar esta rama del saber como instrumento de conocimiento y herramienta para el mejor desarrollo de la humanidad. Armitage señaló que las humanidades están en crisis en todo el mundo debido a que las perspectivas de empleo que ofrece la ciencia son mucho mejores y al recorte constante de recursos que han experimentado las facultades de humanidades. El resultado es una caída del 50% del número de estudiantes matriculados en ellas en Estados Unidos en los últimos años. La Historia, sin embargo, es un instrumento muy útil de análisis a largo plazo para los políticos, activistas, empresarios, etc. Este enfoque en el largo plazo puede servir para extraer analogías y hacer prospecciones plausibles que con contribuyan a que la sociedad anticipe y gestiones mejor los desafíos del futuro. Y es que la Historia despliega el análisis del pasado en el presente para orientar sobre el futuro y los posibles caminos que se abren en él. Armitage, incluso, afirmó que el presidente de Estados Unidos necesita un consejo de asesores en Historia para iluminar los desafíos y las decisiones actuales. En este sentido, relató que el presidente Kennedy tenía junto a su cama una historia de la Primera Guerra Mundial, con el fin de no repetir los errores de información que condujeron a la misma, que le inspiró en la gestión de la crisis de los misiles cubanos. Kennedy quiso en todo momento que la Unión Soviética estuviera informada de todo con el fin de evitar la catástrofe, y lo consiguió. Los historiadores han podido tener parte de la culpa de la pérdida de peso de su disciplina, pero también en parte por la presión de otros grupos, en especial de los economistas, a la hora de aconsejar. Los historiadores, entiende Armitage, necesitan ampliar su campo en el tiempo y en el espacio, volver a narrativas trasnacionales en busca de denominadores comunes, y a narrativas transtemporales que permitan realizar conexiones a lo largo del tiempo. En este sentido, el discurso histórico debe superar los estados nacionales y sus limitaciones para tener una visión más amplia de los acontecimientos y de las grandes tendencias de fondo.

Episode 41. February 1, 2020.   CLP topic category: Irreconcilable Differences An American Conservative Revolution In the Midst of A Socialist Civil War Introduction: The Difference Between the American Socialist Civil War and the Second American Revolution. David Armitage's book, War, Civil War, or Revolution, (2017), provides a useful method to understand the current constitutional crisis in America. According to Armitage, a civil war emphasizes the essential unity of the combatants, after the war ends, while a revolution involves a civil dissolution of the existing order. Applying Armitage's definition, the American socialists are engaged in a civil war with conservative patriots, because socialists want both sides to “remain members of the same political community,” after the end of the socialist civil war. The socialist logic for continuing the existing constitutional arrangement is easy to understand: the socialists need the middle class and wealthy to continue to contribute their taxes and wealth to the socialist elites, because the socialist regime cannot function without exploitation of the wealthy. Armitage explains that revolution involves the overthrow of the existing constitutional arrangement, and replacing the old regime with a new regime. In other words, in a revolution, the people tearing each other apart do not share a common culture and political community. In fact, as Professor Thompson reminds us, “the two sides hate each other,” and share no common or cultural values. In contrast to the unity of the combatants at the end of a civil war, the two sides in a revolution have no on-going relationship with each other because one of the sides does not exist, anymore. This is the stage of conflict in America today between Democrat socialists and conservatives. The socialists despise non-socialists, and share no values with the founding principles of the nation. But, the socialists need their hated capitalist system to keep functioning, at the end of the civil war, because capitalism generates tax revenues. If they achieve victory of their socialist civil war, they will seek to rule non-socialists in a one-party, totalitarian government, under the guise of the current Constitution. The solution for conservative patriots is to recognize the irreconcilable values with Democrat socialists, and engage in a revolution to form a new nation that reclaims the principles of liberty. In the second American Revolution, conservatives seek an unconditional, permanent split with the socialists. In other words, the conservatives must win the second American revolution in order to divorce themselves from the socialist tyranny, after the civil war. From the socialist perspective, their hatred of conservatives is engendered by the Marxist ideology of class hatred between the capitalist class and the working class.  Professor Thompson, of Clemson, writes, “It is not an exaggeration to suggest that liberal and conservative Americans hate each other. There are now two Americas and the division is not between “haves” and “have nots” or between whites and blacks. The coastal, blue state, Ivy-educated ruling class has contempt for flyover, red state, trailer park deplorables and vice versa. To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln, a nation that hates itself cannot stand.” While Armitage's definitions are useful for understanding the difference between civil war and revolution, his definitions are not useful for explaining America's first revolution. In that revolution, a civil war was being fought at the same time that a revolution was being fought to form a new nation. There was a civil war inside of a revolution. When the British General Clinton changed his strategy from taking New York, in order to focus on taking the Southern states, he ordered several detachments of loyalists in South Carolina to carry the attack against the patriots. British regulars were not used to any great extent in the Carolina theater.  According to one historical account, “the Carolinas were subjected to furious partisan warfare. With minor use of British troops, the south became embroiled in a civil war marked by horrendous and indiscriminate violence… The patriots had to fight a civil war and fight one of the greatest armies of the world at the same time.” For a great period of time in South Carolina, the Tory loyalists were successful in vanquishing the patriots, and engaged in horrific torture and slaughter of patriot prisoners, who had surrendered. The success of the loyalists abruptly changed at King's Mountain, when the loyalists met a patriot army of 900 frontiersmen, commonly called the “Over the Mountain Boys.” From that defeat, General Cornwallis marched his regulars and Tories to Guilford County, N. C., where they engaged General Greene and the American regular army. The fighting at Guilford Courthouse was so brutal and intense that Cornwallis ordered his soldiers in the rear of the line to shoot the soldiers in the front, in the tail, to make them advance against the Patriots. The experience at Guilford was so devastating to the British troops that they refused to leave their quarters in Yorktown to engage the Americans again. Louis Gohmert's analysis of the current conflict in America could be improved if he adopted the “civil war within a revolution” model to explain the Democrat socialist behavior. Gohmert describes the socialist initiative to nullify the 2016 presidential election and impeach President Trump as a “Communist Revolution.” Gohmert states, “I think it is better to characterize it as [a] communist revolution. That's what they're about, and whether you want to call it progressivism, socialism, communism, that's what they're about, and we're already seeing … communism's hatred of religion, and specifically Christianity. It's a threat to what has always been an American way of life.” The more accurate analysis of the socialist behavior involves a progression of behavior from resistance to the transfer of power, to the open rebellion of a coup, then to the sedition of the bureaucrats in the deep state, and finally to civil war. Our podcast today will place these stages of the socialist tactics into the argument that reconciliation with the socialists is impossible. Nothing will ever change the ideology, or the behavior, of the Democrat socialists, who will continue to push for victory of the glorious socialist state, in order to subjugate non-socialists. To paraphrase President Trump, “No matter how many witnesses you give the Democrats, no matter how much information is given, like the quickly produced Transcripts, it will NEVER be enough for them. They will always scream UNFAIR. The Impeachment Hoax is just another political CON JOB!” Our podcast concludes that the only solution to the constitutional crisis is a conservative revolution to restore the original democratic republic of America contemplated by the Patriots in their creation and ratification of the Articles of Confederation.

Virgil talks with David Armitage, Jim Nugent, Kevin Weeks, and Heather Garrigus.

Former Saint David Armitage joined Sam to discuss what the next chapter in his life might look like

He's been golfing, fishing, "too tired", and golfing again...but David Armitage finally came good and didn't dog the podcast. Hilarity ensues as Armo recounts his time living with Geary, getting stiffed in the Brownlow, Mark of the Year and Trevor Barker Award, and throws teammate Sam 'Big Sal' Alabakis overboard in a story for the ages. Jill lines up Armo himself in Jill's Grills, JB stumps the boys in Name the Player, before the final Jack Off plays out with both pride and hair on the line. This is one you simply cannot miss.

Clare Balding is taking a poem for a walk on today’s Ramblings. Joining her is Jean Atkin, the newly appointed Troubadour of the Malvern Hills. Jean takes Clare, stanza by stanza, to each of the locations featured in one of her poems. Joining them is Peter Sutton who has translated into modern English the famous mediaeval poem ‘Piers Plowman’ which starts with the poet asleep on the Malvern Hills. Also walking is David Armitage who works for the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; he discusses the similarities he sees between the Malverns and some African landscapes, and shows Clare a field packed with the most extraordinary amount of ant hills. The Troubadour of the Hills is a project devised by the Ledbury Poetry Festival and the Malvern Hills AONB. If you're reading this on the Radio 4 website, please scroll down for some photos from the walk and some related links which you can follow to find out more.

The original “Bro-dels” Matt and Dave tackle Jo Guldi and David Armitage’s The History Manifesto.  How should historians respond to the “crisis of the humanities?”  Your hosts discuss Guldi and Armitage’s ideas of “long-termism,” big data, and the need for public-facing scholarship from the perspective of World History.  While the book has got some great ideas, it seems like the authors have never met any of the world historians, who have been attempting to answer some of the big questions in the Manifesto for the last few decades!  We don’t feel slighted.  Totally not mad. Don’t worry! Y ou can read the Manifesto for free (see link below).  Take a look and then join Matt & Dave in a wide-ranging discussion of hierarchy in the history academy, dropping enrollment, and Canada’s saddest reactionary, Jordan Peterson.Links:The History Manifesto by Jo Guldi and David Armitage“Rise of the humanities” by Peter Mandler“The CANADALAND Guide to Jordan B.

Modern cosmopolitanism traces its routes back to the Enlightenment. In its individual and collectivist strains, it has become programatically pacifist by virtue of many of its central defining features. Under such a regime of cosmopolitanism, one might imagine the Kantian goal of perpetual peace. Kant's conception of cosmopolitanism was progressive and developmental, but also fundamentally conflicted. Its motor was that famous unsocial sociability, which compelled humans to seek peace even as they experienced destructive forms of competition. The connection between cosmopolitanism on one hand and peace on the other, therefore, is neither essential or natural; it is contingent and accidental despite the strong connection between modern contemporary cosmopolitanism and peace. Only recently have scholars acknowledged that cosmopolitanism might indeed have something to say about war, or that war might shed light on its limits and possibilities. Is contemporary cosmopolitanism theoretically robust enough to face the challenges of unconventional warfare in the 21st century? And if cosmopolitanism defines transnational borders as morally arbitrary, what can it tell us about conflicts that occur within such borders, that is to say about civil war? In this lecture, David Armitage pursues these and other important questions.

Civil wars are among the most intractable conflicts in the world. Yet exactly distinguishes civil war from other types of armed struggle? In his book Civil Wars: A History in Ideas (Vintage Books, 2017), David Armitage examines the evolution of the concept over the centuries while explaining the relevance of that debate for today. As Armitage demonstrates, the Romans were the first to define civil wars as we understand them, giving us the name we use today. Their efforts were reflected in the works of authors in early modern Europe, who drew upon the classical tradition in order to comprehend the conflicts of their own day. Precision in defining war became increasingly relevant, both to distinguish civil wars from the newly recognized phenomenon of revolutions and with the emergence of efforts in the nineteenth century to regulate war through treaties and legal codes. This effort continues down to the present day, with the question of whether a conflict is or is not a civil war often determining how the international community responds to it.

Civil wars are among the most intractable conflicts in the world. Yet exactly distinguishes civil war from other types of armed struggle? In his book Civil Wars: A History in Ideas (Vintage Books, 2017), David Armitage examines the evolution of the concept over the centuries while explaining the relevance of that debate for today. As Armitage demonstrates, the Romans were the first to define civil wars as we understand them, giving us the name we use today.

We think we know civil war when we see it. Yet ideas of what it is, and what it isn’t, have a long and contested history, from its fraught origins in republican Rome to debates in early modern Europe to our present day. Defining the term is acutely political, for ideas about what makes a war “civil” often depend on whether one is a ruler or a rebel, victor or vanquished, sufferer or outsider. Calling a conflict a civil war can shape its outcome by determining whether outside powers choose to get involved or stand aside: from the American Revolution to the war in Iraq, pivotal decisions have depended on such shifts of perspective. A panel of historians, lawyers and philosophers respond to David Armitage’s book 'Civil Wars: A History in Ideas', in which he offers a unique perspective on the roots and dynamics of civil war, and on its shaping force in our conflict-ridden world. Speakers: Professor David Armitage, Lloyd C. Blankfein Professor of History, Harvard University; Associate Professor Maartje Abbenhuis, History, University of Auckland; Dr Eleanor Cowan, Lecturer in Roman History, University of Sydney; Professor Andrew Fitzmaurice, Professor of History, University of Sydney; Professor Duncan Ivison, Professor of Political Philosophy and Deputy Vice Chancellor (Research) University of Sydney; Professor Ben Saul, Challis Chair of International Law, Sydney Law School Held as part of the Sydney Ideas program on 5 June 2017 http://sydney.edu.au/sydney_ideas/lectures/2017/professor_david_armitage.shtml

Civil war is bloody, regressive, and destructive. Revolution is forward-looking, positive, and regenerative. Yet, says historian David Armitage, even the noblest revolution bears traces of the primitive violence of civil war.

David Armitage, discusses "Cosmopolitanism and Civil War". Armitage is the Lloyd C. Blankfein Professor of History at Harvard.

According to Reinhart Koselleck, the eighteenth century witnessed the gradual and permanent separation of concepts of "civil war" and "revolution". Placing these ideas in a longer perspective – a longue durée that goes back to republican Rome and comes forward to our own times – challenges this narrative by showing that civil war was the genus of which revolution was only a species. This argument presented by David Armitage can help us to rethink the late eighteenth-century "Age of Revolutions"; it can also explain the confusion as we attempt to understand political violence in places like Egypt and Syria today.

Douglas Kennedy põnev romaan viib lugeja Hollywoodi telgitagustesse. Nagu kõik stsenaristiks pürgijad, nii tahab ka David Armitage saada rikkaks ja kuulsaks. Ühel heal päeval lähebki tal korda televisioonile müüa oma stsenaarium – ja üleöö on ta tõusnud Hollywoodi uueks lemmikuks. Davidi tee tippu võtab aga kummalise pöörde, kui tema ellu trügib miljardärist filmifanaatik, kes pakub välja väga iseäraliku tehingu. David neelab sööda alla ja avastab üsna pea, et seisab silmitsi filmimaailma inetuma poolega... (Douglas Kennedy. Kiusatus. Loeb Rando Tammik.)
