The term “gastrocracy” refers to the appropriation of discourses and practices related to the sourcing, preparation, distribution, and consumption of food for political purposes. The intersections of gastronomy and governance, dating in Spain to the last quarter of the nineteenth century, have become highly visible over the past decade, when political debates around nationalism in its different forms have taken the guise of discussions about regional and local cuisines. Concomitant with the rise of the “slow food” movement and following UNESCO’s addition in 2011 of “Gastronomic Meal of the French” to its list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, public and private associations all around Spain have been established with the goal of achieving recognition by UNESCO for Spanish, Catalan, and other national cuisines. In 2016, Gastro Marca EspaÑa—an association and a web portal—was launched to raise the profile of food in Spain’s national brand. Eliciting wide public participation, coopted for political purposes, regarded as a factor of economic development on any scale, and integrated into every so-called banal nationalism, the production, distribution, and consumption of food are highly relevant for historical analysis. Seeking to encourage a broader discussion about Peninsular gastrocracies, this book brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars from different sides of the Atlantic and the Pacific who have spearheaded research on gastronomy and governance in Spain.

The Spioenkop Campaign

The Spioenkop Campaign

HELION COMPANY

After the defeat at Colenso, the Natal Field Force under General Buller needed to break through the Boer lines and relieve the besieged town of Ladysmith. Buller's army marched westwards, crossed the Tugela River at Trichardt's Drift and Potgieter's Drift, and from 17-27 January 1900 fought the Boers with artillery and infantry attacks. These significant and prolonged battles have largely been ignored because of the horror of Spion Kop (Spioenkop) on 24 January. Yet Spion Kop began as a small flank attack -- only a tenth of the British force were initially involved, and only 300 Boers counter-attacked. This book is the culmination of years of study, and correctly places Spioenkop in the context of the larger campaign. The author uses battlefield archeology and eyewitness accounts of Boer and British participants to create a highly original and detailed account. This book also serves as a battlefield guide to Tabanyama and Spioenkop, providing detailed maps and numerous GPS locations.

In this novel of conspiracy and terrorism a dark presence from Robert Davidson's previous novel The Tuzla Run dominates centre stage. Liam MacDermot is fostered by the violent embrace of revolt and matures to become an iconic lynch pin in the IRA's fight against the British State for an independent North. With killing skills, forged in the cauldron of an underground war, tempered and honed in action he becomes too ruthless even for his comrades in arms. He deviates only to pursue his vendetta against ex IRA hitman Declan Rath and Spider Webb a former SAS soldier. His psychotic obsession with wholesale but clinical savagery may prove to be his undoing, but he is the nemesis for many, bringing death to innocents in his belief only blood spilled can nurture victory. MI5 joins forces with Webb and Rath as tensions spiral in this conflict of psychopathic savagery versus law and order. Elusive, with no visible footprint, despite his known involvement in several atrocities, The Man From Armagh will be their most deadly enemy and threatens to be unstoppable.

In 1884, the Canadian government enacted a ban on the potlatch, the foundational ceremony of the Haida people. The tradition, which determined social structure, transmitted cultural knowledge, and redistributed wealth, was seen as a cultural impediment to the government’s aim of assimilation.The tradition did not die, however; the knowledge of the ceremony was kept alive by the Elders through other events until the ban was lifted. In 1969, a potlatch was held. The occasion: the raising of a totem pole carved by Robert Davidson, the first the community had seen in close to 80 years. From then on, the community publicly reclaimed, from the Elders who remained to share it, the knowledge that has almost been lost.Sara Florence Davidson, Robert’s daughter, would become an educator. Over the course of her own education, she came to see how the traditions of the Haida practiced by her father—holistic, built on relationships, practical, and continuous—could be integrated into contemporary educational practices. From this realization came the roots for this book.

There are few stories like the story of Jonah. It is not only a story of a man. It is the story of man. But even more, it is also a story the man - Jesus Christ. Long before Jesus was born, Jonah wrote his story as a prophecy of his coming, his death, his resurrection and his commission to the Church. More than a story of a whale. It is a whale of a story. This book is a devotion on the Book of Jonah, a commentary on the book, and a study of the critical question of what the whale was.
