APUSH for All
Review Episode 1: Colonization through Revolution (1491–1800)
In this special review episode, the gang provides a concise review of U.S. history from 1491 to 1800, covering APUSH Periods 1–3. They begin by highlighting the complexity of pre-contact Native societies and the transformative effects of the Columbian Exchange. The episode then examines the varied colonial strategies of the Spanish, French, and British, emphasizing how these approaches influenced interactions with Native populations and colonial development. As tensions rose, events like the French and Indian War and subsequent British policies, including the Proclamation of 1763 and various taxation acts, fueled colonial unrest. The hosts discuss the ideological underpinnings of the Revolution, drawing on...

The British Admiral's Bad Luck (1874)
The Legislative Assembly of Victoria Australia on June 2nd, 1874 turned their discussion to the suitability of lighthouses on King Island in the wake of the recent wreck of the British Admiral. Mr. Francis stated what he knew of the matter, “The lighthouse question was a matter of intercolonial concern. In the opinion of Captain Stanley, the officer in charge of the marine survey, the present site was not the most desirable one of the lighthouse, and a meeting of harbour-masters from the various colonies was recently held, in Sydney, to consider this and other kindred questions.”Ship Name...

The Clash of the two Americas - Deep Dive Interview
Ch07 - The British Empire’s Plans for America
The text from "Clash of the Two Americas" argues that a group of British-backed American figures, led by Aaron Burr, attempted to dissolve the United States in the early 19th century through a series of secessionist plots. The book highlights the alleged role of Burr and other prominent figures in manipulating political events, such as the 1800 presidential election and the 1804 duel with Alexander Hamilton, in their efforts to establish a separate confederacy. The source claims that these conspiracies, which aimed to align with the British Empire, were based on the expansion of slavery and the weakening of the American economy...

James D. Fisher, "The Enclosure of Knowledge: Books, Power and Agrarian Capitalism in Britain, 1660–1800" (Cambridge UP, 2022)
The rise of agrarian capitalism in Britain is usually told as a story about markets, land and wages. The Enclosure of Knowledge: Books, Power and Agrarian Capitalism in Britain, 1660–1800 (Cambridge University Press, 2022) by Dr. James Fisher reveals that it was also about books, knowledge and expertise. It argues that during the early modern period, farming books were a key tool in the appropriation of the traditional art of husbandry possessed by farm workers of all kinds. It challenges the dominant narrative of an agricultural 'enlightenment', in which books merely spread useful knowledge, by showing how codified knowledge was used to a...

A Short Walk through Our Long History
94 - The British Empire in the Late 1800's
When we last looked at the British Empire, 15 !! Episodes ago, Queen Victoria was on the throne. And she still is. I mean, not today, today it’s King Charles and his weird red official portrait, but I mean Victoria is still queen at this point in our timeline. We did kind of spend a lot of episodes focusing on the American Civil War, but we really didn’t cover much time. I mean, it’s only 1877 or so. This brings up an important topic - who did the British support during the Civil War? Well, technically, neither side. They had their own...

Jonathan Scott, "How the Old World Ended: The Anglo-Dutch-American Revolution, 1500-1800" (Yale UP, 2019)
Jonathan Scott is one of the most original interpreters of the early modern world. How the Old World Ended: The Anglo-Dutch-American Revolution, 1500-1800 (Yale University Press, 2019) is a deft and cogent synthesis in which Scott returns to the turbulent seventeenth century in Britain, and examines how a period of political upheaval in its middle decade laid the foundations for a process of state-formation across the Anglo-Dutch-American world. While it tracks across the familiar ground of revolution, empire, commerce, and republicanism, this is a book with broad horizons.

Rebecca Kingston, "Plutarch's Prism: Classical Reception and Public Humanism in France and England, 1500–1800" (Cambridge UP, 2022)
Throughout the early modern period, political theorists in France and England drew on the works of Plutarch to offer advice to kings and princes. Elizabeth I herself translated Plutarch in her later years, while Jacques Amyot's famous translations of Plutarch's The Parallel Lives led to the wide distribution of his work and served as a key resource for Shakespeare in the writing of his Roman plays, through Sir Thomas North's English translations. Rebecca Kingston's Plutarch's Prism: Classical Reception and Public Humanism in France and England, 1500–1800 (Cambridge UP, 2022) explores how Plutarch was translated into French and English during the Re...

Moving from the paradigm of codicological information towards a thorough interpretation of the wider social worlds of colophons in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America, this volume uncovers the fascinating cultural history of early modern scribes.

Выпуск 20. Глобальная военная трансформация: перемены и преемственность, 1450–1800.
Глобальная военная трансформация: перемены и преемственность, 1450–1800. Под ред. Джереми Блэка. Рим: Итальянское общество военной истории; Надир Медия, 2023 Global Military Transformations: Change and Continuity, 1450–1800, edited by Jeremy Black. Roma: Società Italiana di Storia Militare; Nadir Media, 2023 Книга "Глобальная военная трансформация: перемены и преемственность, 1450–1800" является наиболее свежим из обобщающих трудов, посвященных военной революции Раннего Нового времени. Главы книги написаны признанными специалистами по истории войн и военного дела в ключевых регионах, государствах и сферах военных перемен. Редактор сборника, профессор Джереми Блэк – один из главных идеологов дискуссии о военной революции, влияния на войну и военное дело социальных и государственных перемен в Раннее Новое время, и влияния внедрения огнестрельного оружия, создания регулярных армий и флотов на общественное и государственное развитие. С этой книги, хотя она вышла совсем недавно, можно начинать изучение военной революции, поскольку она содержит исчерпывающую библиографию по этому вопросу и в целом по военному делу той эпохи. Впервые в подобных изданиях, которых было немало за последние десятилетия, начиная с фундаментальных трудов и анталогий под редакцией Джефри Паркера и Клифорда Роджерса, в книге под редакцией Джереми Блэка подробно изучена военная революция в Восточной Европе, на Британских островах, в Португалии, Центральной Азии, Африке – в тех регионах, которые всегда казались в этом процессе вторичными и периферийными, но которые в действительности внесли огромный вклад в глобальную военную трансформацию или сумели найти в ней свой изолированный, но эффективный путь. Еще одно немаловажное достоинство этой книги – она издана Итальянским обществом военной истории под председательством профессора Вирджилио Иллари в категории опен аксес, то есть ее можно свободно загрузить в интернете на сайте общества в формате ПДФ, который позволяет для читателей, не владеющих достаточно английским языком, перевести ее всю или фрагменты на русский язык пользуясь лингвистическими нейросетями.

Colonising Disability: Impairment and Otherness Across Britain and Its Empire, c. 1800-1914 (Cambridge UP, 2022) explores the construction and treatment of disability across Britain and its empire from the nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Drawing on a wide range of sources, Esme Cleall explores how disability increasingly became associated with 'difference' and argues that it did so through intersecting with other categories of otherness such as race. Philanthropic, legal, literary, religious, medical, educational, eugenistic and parliamentary texts are examined to unpick representations of disability that, overtime, became pervasive with significant ramifications for disabled people. Cleall also uses multiple examples t...

Christopher Celenza is one of the foremost contemporary scholars of the Renaissance. His ambitious new book The Italian Renaissance and the Origin of the Humanities: An Intellectual History, 1400-1800 (Cambridge UP, 2021) focuses on the body of knowledge which we now call the humanities, charting its roots in the Italian Renaissance and exploring its development up to the Enlightenment. Beginning in the fifteenth century, the author shows how thinkers like Lorenzo Valla and Angelo Poliziano developed innovative ways to read texts closely, paying attention to historical context, developing methods to determine a text's authenticity, and taking the humanities seriously as a m...

Episode 287: The Hessians are Coming!
In 1776 a massive British fleet of more than 400 ships carrying tens of thousands of soldiers arrived outside New York Harbor. Many of these soldiers were German, hired from their princes by the British government. Americans then and now have called them Hessians. For the next seven years, these German soldiers marched, fought, and suffered seemingly everywhere in eastern North America, from the walls of Quebec City to the sandy beaches of Pensacola Bay. When the British army left, many Germans were left behind–both the living, deserters who had found new lives or others who settled with Loyalists in Canada, an...

Chelsea Phillips, "Carrying All Before Her: Celebrity Pregnancy and the London Stage, 1689-1800" (U of Delaware Press, 2022)
The rise of celebrity stage actresses in the long eighteenth century created a class of women who worked in the public sphere while facing considerable scrutiny about their offstage lives. Such powerful celebrity women used the cultural and affective significance of their reproductive bodies to leverage audience support and interest to advance their careers, and eighteenth-century London patent theatres even capitalized on their pregnancies. Carrying All Before Her: Celebrity Pregnancy and the London Stage, 1689-1800 (University of Delaware Press, 2022) uses the reproductive histories of six celebrity women (Susanna Mountfort Verbruggen, Anne Oldfield, Susannah Cibber, George Anne Bellamy, Sarah Siddons, and...

EMPIRE LINES
Standard Willow Ceramic Plate, Josiah Spode (1800-1820)
Dr. Tim Murray smashes imperial stereotypes of Asia through tastes and trades, in a 19th century Standard Willow Ceramic Plate from Josiah Spode's Staffordshire pottery. Adorning dinner tables across the world, Josiah Spode's Chinese-inspired ‘Standard Willow’ rapidly became the world's most popular ceramic pattern. Produced in Staffordshire from 1790, its blue-and-white pines and pagodas speak to Asia's ascendant economic and cultural status - and imperial European efforts to imitate and overtake China in the 19th century. Excavated from former settler societies as far as Australia, such tea sets are testament to the mutual expansion of the British Empire and...

🔴Wednesday February 24th 2021 🔵2021年2月24日星期三 1️⃣Facebook v. Australia: it’s either my way or highway! 臉書 vs. 澳洲:你爸爸我跟你拼了! Facebook will resume showing news articles in Australia, after cutting a deal with the government there. Less than a week ago the social-media titan shocked Australians by blocking links to journalism from their feeds and posts. It was angry at a law that would force tech companies to pay publishers for their content. Facebook vaguely pledged to “support” Australian journalism. 在與澳洲政府達成協議後,臉書 (Facebook) 將在其平台繼續對該國提供/顯示新聞報導。不到一週以前,這家社群媒體巨頭宣佈將禁止澳洲 (臉書) 用戶分享或查看新聞連結,而這震驚了當地人。此憤怒之舉主要回應澳國擬立法強迫社群媒體平台必須向出版商支付其新聞內容的費用。對此,臉書含糊地承諾要「支持」澳洲的新聞媒體業。 2️⃣HSBC: shake things up! 滙豐銀行:大刀闊斧! HSBC announced a 34% drop in pre-tax profits in 2020, as it unveiled plans to pivot further towards Asia. The bank will invest $6bn over the next five years to expand in China, Hong Kong and Singapore. It will also sell its American and French retail divisions.

Throughout the Age of Exploration, European maritime communities bent on colonial and commercial expansion embraced the complex mechanics of celestial navigation. They developed schools, textbooks, and instruments to teach the new mathematical techniques to sailors. As these experts debated the value of theory and practice, memory and mathematics, they created hybrid models that would have a lasting impact on applied science.In Sailing School: Navigating Science and Skill, 1550-1800 (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2019), a richly illustrated comparative study of this transformative period, Margaret E.

New Books in African Studies
Jill Kelly, “To Swim with Crocodiles: Land, Violence, and Belonging in South Africa, 1800-1996” (Michigan State UP, 2018)
Today we talked with Jill Kelly about her new book To Swim with Crocodiles: Land, Violence, and Belonging in South Africa, 1800-1996 published by Michigan State University Press in 2018. Her book is a history of ukukhonza, a practice of affiliation that bound together chiefs and subjects to enable security, in the Table Mountain region of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. Kelly argues ukukhonza can be used as a “lens” to explore the history of the relationship between chief, subject, and land. By examining that history in the longue durée of the last two centuries, Kelly reveals the origins and evoluti...

David Cannadine: Rewriting the British Nineteenth Century
The nineteenth century was incontrovertibly the ‘British century’, in which the UK seemed to dominate the globe, and when, for good or ill, ‘British history’ took place in many other parts of the world as well. At a time when global history has become so prominent, this seems an appropriate opportunity to revisit the years 1800 to 1906. The lecture was given on 21 June 2016 at the German Historical Institute London. Introduction by Andreas Gestrich.

The American University of Beirut and the British Mandates | Hilary Falb Kalisman
E231 | During the late Ottoman period, the Syrian Protestant College in Beirut became a leading center of higher education in the Eastern Mediterranean and for the Arab world in particular.

In this episode, Hilary Falb Kalisman shares her research on the history of scholarship students...
