Civic Culture And Everyday Life in Early Modern Germany

The book offers an overview of bourgeois culture and the aspects of everyday life in the German cultural area from the Renaissance to the end of the 18th century. At the same time, the reader is introduced to fundamental research problems. The spectrum of topics ranges from life styles to clothing and eating habits, from consciousness of time to the rites de passage, birth, marriage and death. Special attention is paid to the role of female and male citizens in music, literature and fine arts.

The Culture of Usury in Renaissance England

Usury is entrenched in the twenty-first century world.  Recently, however, public opinion has been shifting back to the strongly hostile view of usury held by humanity for millennia before the rise of capitalism.  This book examines the ways in which usury was perceived and portrayed at the very beginning of its rise to power.  David Hawkes examines early modern English depictions of usury in a wide variety of literary media: plays, pamphlets, poems, political economy, and parliamentary debates. It suggests that knowledge of such portrayals may help us settle accounts with the vastly expanded form taken by usury in our own time.

Representing Justice: Stories of Law and Literature

This 24-lecture course offers a wide-ranging analysis of the relationship between law and literature by examining representative moments in the long history of these two interwoven ways of ordering the world, both representations of culture through language, image, symbol systems, and action.
Great literature can be the means of understanding as well as creating our world—by teaching and reinforcing societys laws, articulating its values, and enforcing the social contracts that unite us as a culture.
