Abstract:

With the increasing turn to celibacy for monks and priests over the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, one avenue for performing masculinity – sexual prowess and the engendering of children – closed for monks and priests. Jacqueline Murray explores the ways in which the myth of uncontrollable male lust became deployed to enable clerics to redefine masculinity: instead of actual battle, these second sons of the military aristocracy displayed strength and prowess through fighting lust; instead of actual sexual prowess, “real men” could demonstrate masculinity through rationally controlling sexual

Abstract:

This article shows that Israel's success in wars against Arab states should not be attributed exclusively to its own military prowess and the relative incompetence of its enemies. Another important factor was great-power involvement in the Arab-Israeli wars.Despite Israel's early fears, such involvement in most cases either failed to deny Israel its military achievements or was an asset for two main reasons: lack of will or capability on the part of hostile great powers to intervene against Israel; and a friendly patron's support, without which Israel's own military skills might not have been

Abstract:

During the Second World War, the Soviet Union demonstrated remarkable superiority in the production of military weapons, establishing itself as a formidable military force on the Eastern Front. Through a combination of industrial capacity, technological innovation, strategic planning, and foreign support, the USSR outproduced its adversaries and maintained a steady supply of weapons and equipment. The rapid industrialization under Joseph Stalin's regime, coupled with efficient resource allocation and coordination between military and industrial sectors, enabled the Soviet Union to mass-produce

Abstract:

This article explores the relationship between sport and war in Britain during the South African War, 1899–1902. Through extensive press coverage, as well as a spate of memoirs and novels, the British public was fed a regular diet of war stories and reportage in which athletic endeavour and organized games featured prominently. This contemporary literary material sheds light on the role sport was perceived to have played in the lives and work of the military personnel deployed in South Africa. It also, however, reveals a growing unease over an amateur-military tradition which equated sporting

Abstract:

Abstract Ethnicity, religion, and geopolitics affect historians’ interpretations of the history of Xinjiang, a very chaotic frontier region of China that did not come fully under the control of the People’s Republic of China until recent decades. The case of Sheng Shicai, an early Republican Era Chinese military officer, shows how professional training and, most importantly, the ability to capitalize on emerging opportunities contributed to his military success in Xinjiang from 1931 to 1934.

Abstract This paper analyses Jub. 34:1-9, an extra-biblical account of Jacob and his sons warring against the Amorites. Herein, the Jubilean author portrays Joseph as an exemplary family man who assists his brothers in fighting for and occupying the allotment of Ephraim and Manasseh. While Joseph’s portrayal corresponds to the favorable presentation of the patriarchs in Jubilees, it also highlights Israelite solidarity in the face of an enemy attack. Enhancing Jacob-Israel’s military prowess, this unity leads the Israelites to victory and thus to inheritance of the land. While these themes app

This fully illustrated study explores the formidable Athenian army, rivalled only by the Spartan army in terms of battlefield prowess and influence. In 508 BC, the reforms of Kleisthenes established the ten tribes of Athens, inaugurating a system of military organization that remained in place for nearly 200 years until Athens’ eclipse by the growing power of Macedon in the early 3rd century BC.

A revered political, spiritual, and military leader, Sitting Bull was legendary for his stubbornness and battle prowess as head of the Lakota Sioux in the 1860s. His resistance of U.S. government encroachment onto Native lands and his fight to preserve Sioux culture inspired his people to do the same, culminating in the Battle of Little Bighorn. Despite his eventual surrender, Sitting Bull was one of the most influential figures in the history of U.S.-Native American relations.

The New Model Army was one of the most formidable fighting forces ever assembled.

As a fighting force it engineered regicide, pioneered innovative military tactics, and helped to keep Cromwell in power as Lord Protector until his death.

In existence from the late 13th century until 1922, the Ottoman legacy can still be felt today throughout the Balkans and the Arab world in the areas of politics, diplomacy, education, language, and religion.

AbstractIsrael’s approach to defense AI is the result of an “organized mess,” triggered by Israel’s informal culture, the country’s tendency to let market forces push technology forward, a demanding security environment, and the need to be able to respond to new threats in a quick and flexible manner. Despite some challenges and shortcomings, such as an increasingly aggressive race for global AI dominance and limited resources, the country is still among the most advanced in the field of defense AI, relaying on the Israeli ecosystem’s distinctive advantage, born out of structural and organizat

Abstract:

Abstract Since time immemorial, all societies which depend upon force for the acquisition and retention of their means of subsistence have regarded physical courage as the supreme proof of manhood. From Homeric Greece to pre-Tokugawa Japan, prowess in warfare has been seen as the highest form of human achievement. Early modern England had a sophisticated agricultural and commercial economy, but it had not wholly abandoned the values of the heroic age. ‘Fortitude, called manliness,’ said an Elizabethan writer, was ‘the most proper virtue belonging to a man’.

Neglected in many historical studies of the Bronze Age, the Hittites were a significant ancient civilization, renowned for their military prowess, early adoption of ironworking, advanced legal system, and contributions to diplomacy. Their inconclusive conflicts with the Egyptians, culminating in the dramatic chariot battle of Kadesh, led to the creation of one of the first known peace treaties. Their technological advances transformed the political and cultural landscape of the ancient Near East.

A portrait painted by the Flemish artist Johann Gersmueter in 1606 purports to depict “Giangiovetta,” a dwarf associated with the Farnese ducal court in Parma. Arguing that the sitter—who presents as a well-dressed courtier outfitted with martial accouterments—does not appear to be what would be deemed a “proportionate” dwarf, this essay reviews the extant inventory records and the Farnese tradition for court dwarfs to ascertain how and why the figure was determined to be a dwarf. As well as considering the painting in relation to other works of dwarf imagery, the discussion proposes a possibl

This chapter provides the historical context of the colonial logic, martial race. It explores how martial race histories come to matter in producing Gurkhas as racialised soldiers – valued for their martial prowess, their unfettered loyalty and, at times, their childlike and playful nature. The chapter shows how these histories, within a hierarchy of men and masculinities, naturalise Gurkhas as perpetually the subaltern, causing them to be understood and valued in terms of how they measure up against the fully developed and professional white British military officer.
