Understanding family abuse
This article provides an original contribution to understanding the motives for and perpetration patterns of family abuse that affects a range of minoritised communities, such as those minoritised on the basis of race, sexuality or transgender identity, and to contribute to debates around prevention. Negative and discriminatory societal attitudes, norms and behaviours towards these groups influence and justify family abuse. Based on empirical res…
Eccentricity, impartiality and sentimental travel in George Carey’s The Balnea (1799–1801)
Guidebooks are by now an integral feature within travel writing studies.This article presents a detailed contextual reading of George Carey's The Balnea (1799-1801): the first general guidebook to English leisure resorts.Although the work is occasionally cited by scholars, little attention has been paid to The Balnea's status as a text, to the changes that were made across its three editions, or to its nineteenth-century afterlife.My discussion e…
Landscapes of mourning in nineteenth-century English poetry
The poetry of loss and mourning has always been profoundly and intimately connected with place.From its early inception in Classical fertility rituals, what became known as the genre of elegy developed in close relationship with an understanding of "the pastoral" as a place of renewal and consolation.Traditionally, one of the primary functions of pastoral settings was to alleviate grief by directing the mourning process towards the natural beauty…
Peripatetic philosophy
Sterne’s A Sentimental Journey charts the whimsical tour through France of its narrator, Yorick. In doing so, it comprises an essay in cosmopolitanism that explores the tensions between patriotic feeling and divergent models of cosmopolitanism itself. Mediating universalizing and relativistic conceptions of inter-national engagement, Yorick’s cosmopolitan identity is periodically compromised by a faltering, insular, and self-interested social per…

Genetic Differentiation of Populations within the Culex pipiens Complex and Phylogeny of Related Species
The Culex pipiens complex consists of several species, subspecies, forms, races, physiological variants, or biotypes according to different authors and includes the 2 holarctic variants Cx. pipiens biotype pipiens and Cx. pipiens biotype molestus. Differences in morphological characters are overlapping and thus are delimited in their taxonomic value, even when behavioral and reproductive specializations are apparent. Our enzyme electrophoretic st…
The Cambridge Companion to Twentieth-Century English Poetry
The last century was characterised by an extraordinary flowering of the art of poetry in Britain. These specially commissioned essays by some of the most highly regarded poetry critics offer a stimulating and reliable overview of English poetry of the twentieth century. The opening section on contexts will both orientate readers relatively new to the field and provide provocative syntheses for those already familiar with it. Following the terms i…
Scorned as timber, beloved of the sky
Emily Can (1871–1945) is now known as both a visual artist and a writer of some import. Yet while Can's work was not exactly ‘scorned’, it was certainly underestimated, both as art and as writing, in her own time and for generations to follow. Accounts of the woman in her day tended to depict her as eccentric, while accounts of her work tended to refer to her as a ‘woman artist’ (as distinct from the generic male ‘artist') or as a Western Canadia…

Cultural Politics at the Fin de Siècle
Cultural Politics at the Fin de Siècle scrutinises ways in which current conflicts of 'race', class, and gender have their origins in the cultural politics of the last fin de siècle, whose influence stretched from the 1890s, when economic depression signalled the end of Britain's role as 'the workshop of the world', to 1914 when world war accelerated imperial decline. This collaborative venture by new and established scholars includes discussion …
