Abstract:

AbstractMany historians of plebeian marriage have accepted David Kent's findings that married men in eighteenth-century London enlisted to desert their wives. This article argues that this was far from always the case. Enlistment could serve as a family survival strategy for pauper husbands, particularly during mobilization periods. Bounties, shorter terms of service, and pensions could entice responsible providers. The militia or guards regiments appealed to family men because of their stable income and low risk of foreign deployment. Accounts of agonized quayside partings indicate that some

Abstract:

The Vilnius region Lithuanian battalions were formed between July and September 1941 from Lithuanian troops of the 29th Territorial Riflemen’s Corps of the Red Army, who were taken prisoners of war. Before October that year six police battalions were formed in the Vilnius region: the First, Second, Third, Fourth battalions and the Railway Guard Battalion (which later got No 6) and the Gardinas Battalion (later under No 15). In these battalions and other self-defence subunits 3,000 troops served then. In the spring 1942, the 254th Police Battalion was formed in the Vilnius region. The police ba

Abstract:

David Geoffrey Dalgliesh, naval surgeon was born on 22 March 1922 to Kenneth and Ellen Dalgliesh. With three sisters and a younger brother he grew up in Sidcup, Kent, in semi-rural surroundings of gardens, fields and woodlands where he developed a lasting love of natural history. Aged nine he learnt woodwork, a manual skill that re-emerged later in his gift for surgery. He attended Merchant Taylor's School until 1939, taking the 1st MB examination in preparation for entering medical school. When World War II began in September 1939 he was of military age but compulsorily reserved as a future d

   Find your black holes and white walls, know them … it is the only way you will be able to dismantle them and draw your lines of flight.—Deleuze and Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus   Defined by originator David Belle as “an art to help you pass any obstacle”, the practice of “parkour” or “free running” constitutes both a mode of movement and a new way of interacting with the urban environment. Parkour was created by Belle (partly in collaboration with his childhood friend Sébastien Foucan) in France in the late 1980s. As seen in the following short video “Ru

Abstract:

Abstract The guard captain kept close everyone to whom Tiberius listened. The emperor kept an astronomer, astrologer and prophet called Thrasyllus whose wife, Aka, was a princess from her father’s tiny realm of Commagene, south of the Black Sea. Commagene was an absolute monarchy, home to Armenians, Iranians and the subjects of Alexander’s generals. Thrasyllus understood the licence and limits of autocracy better than those less experienced. Sejanus stood beside him, planning attacks on Germanicus’s widow, Agrippina. All swam in a swirling vortex. For no one was the water calm.

Abstract:

It’s one o’clock in the morning on a warm October night, and the streets of northern Brooklyn are eerily deserted. The hulks of warehouses and the chimney of the old Domino sugar refinery stand guard along the waterfront, while grim industrial buildings hunker down in the shadow of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. Steel gates hide the windows of small plastics and metalworking shops. Nearby tenements are silent and dark. You’re wide awake, though, driving through the darkness on Kent Avenue, bumping over warped asphalt and steering around potholes. You’re circling Williamsburg, looking for the
