The Social, Educational, and Early Military Backgrounds of Senior Officers of the British Army of the Second World War, 1944–1945
Seventy-eight officers held senior command positions at army, corps, and divisional level in Britain’s three main field armies – the Second (North-West Europe), Eighth (Italy), and Fourteenth (Burma) – at the end of the Second World War. Using a range of source material, including their private papers, this article examines their socio-economic and family background, education, and early career development and finds that as a group, they were mor…
Australian microgrids
Visible impacts of a changing climate across the nation, spiralling energy prices, and international political pressure have prompted a renewed focus by State and Federal Governments on the decarbonisation of the Australian economy, bringing vigour and momentum to the country's renewable energy transition. This potential reallocation of energy resources away from a centralised model of generation to a more distributed approach has increased the i…
Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars
In the first and only examination of how the British Empire and Commonwealth sustained its soldiers before, during, and after both World Wars, a cast of leading military historians explores how the empire mobilized manpower to recruit workers, care for veterans, and transform factory workers and farmers into riflemen. Raising armies is more than counting people, putting them into uniform, and assigning them to formations. It demands efficient mea…

Richard Jefferies, After London; or Wild England
This new critical edition situates 'After London' in a tradition of mid-late Victorian texts that respond to the evolutionary theories of Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace and responds to a host of other key social, political, and cultural issues of the period
The Circles of Vitality”
The days have passed in which John Ruskin's scientific writings were deemed secondary and separate to his art, architecture, or politics, but his science still tends to be viewed predominately via the prism of his later natural history, with its characteristically virulent opposition to Darwin and materialism, and in relation to his application of typological exegesis to landscape study. I would argue that an approach is required that situates Ru…
The Guilty Ship”
This article examines critical responses to J. M. W. Turner’s Slavers Throwing Overboard the Dead and Dying —Typhon Coming On (1840) and John Ruskin’s 1843 critique of the painting, in the years following the publication of David Dabydeen’s Turner (1994). The representation of drowning slaves in Turner’s painting and in Ruskin’s art criticism, has resulted in the emergence of something of a critical consensus in which both figures are seen either…

During the latter part of the nineteenth century and until after the First World War the imperial cities of the Indian Ocean became thriving centres for cultural exchange and intellectual debate. Entrepôts like Bombay, Madras, Calcutta, Rangoon and Singapore witnessed the emergence of a non-European, western-educated professional class that serviced the requirements of expanding international commercial interests and the simultaneous growth of th…
