‘In his latest book, Luigi Caranti writes clearly and with insight not only about the legacy of Kant’s political philosophy, but also about our present political condition and the painful gap between the two. Arguing that Kant correctly interpreted can in fact offer better concrete guidance for political action in today’s world than many of his foes as well as friends realise, this is a work from which all thoughtful readers concerned with reducing injustice will benefit.’
– Professor Robert B. Louden, University of Southern Maine

This third volume of the speeches and articles of The Prince of Wales includes a thematic expansion to the section on ‘Climate Change and Sustainability’, accommodating a number of texts that address the interconnected relationship between economic, social and environmental sustainability. Among the merits of this archive is its record of The Prince’s contribution, which will allow a fair and balanced assessment of his singularly remarkable impact on public and social debate over five decades.

Eleanor Beal and Jonathan Greenaway have assembled here a truly stimulating collection of essays devoted to exploring the often surprising connections between religion and horror, from the eighteenth century through to the present day. As eclectic in its various critical approaches as it is in the range of texts, authors and topics covered, the collection, refreshingly and perhaps self-consciously so, is a very broad church. Horror and Religion is a welcome addition to the recent critical interest in the theology of the Gothic mode, and is bound to become a key text in the field.’
- Dale Townshend, Professor of Gothic Literature, Manchester Centre for Gothic Studies

‘Ranging across centuries, continents and cultural media, this book explores with exceptional cogency and brio women’s ambivalent relationship with the masculine space of cities. Its chapters are splendidly well chosen, framed and edited to show how women, past and present, find multiple ways to engage creatively with cities, as social agents and as writers, readers and film-makers.’
- Diana Holmes, Professor of French, University of Leeds

Adopting a novel cross-disciplinary approach, this book demonstrates the value of understanding human bodies as fundamentally influenced and affected by the other materials available in diverse landscapes. Using a rich mix of ethnographic, archaeological and historical examples, it explores the creative roles materials have taken in shaping past and present people’s bodies.

‘Pacifism, Peace and Modern Welsh Writing is an enlivening and erudite study, which draws on a range of Welsh-language and English-language texts to reveal the distinctive, interwoven history and cultural importance of pacifist thought in Wales.’
- Dr Laura Wainwright, author of New Territories in Modernism: Anglophone Welsh Writing 1930–1949

‘In Freedom Music, archivist and pianist Jen Wilson embellishes established narratives of Welsh culture with the “blue notes” of transnational, African American and feminist histories. Her explorations of musical influences, the politics of performance practices and the social effects of cultural transference open up new areas of research. This is a wide-ranging, suitably-illustrated and engaging book that documents the cross-cultural and transatlantic dialogues that were the making of modern Wales.’
- Professor Daniel G. Williams, Swansea University
