The construction of an important element in British national identity is explored in Naval Engagements looking at the ways in which the navy a major symbol of national community was given meaning by a range of social groupings The study is at once a cultural history of national identity a social history of naval commemoration and a political history of struggles over patriotism Examining the place that naval symbols occupied in British wartime political culture Timothy Jenks argues that these were more relevant to patriotic discourse than the more commonly explored apotheosis of the Hanoverian monarchs He establishes the centrality of public images of admirals to the victory culture and political experience of the day tracing efforts by groups across the political spectrum to invest these figures with appropriate political capital and contemporary meaning He engages with arguments concerning popular patriotism and the relative cohesiveness of British society Most importantly the book establishes the centrality of naval symbolism to the political culture of Georgian Britian At the same time it reveals the social practices and discourses that consistently interacted to delimit and restrain a variety of projects ostensibly designed to foster patriotism and national identity Patriotism was contested this study argues rather than consensual and British national identity in the period was contingent an ambivalence crucial to the manner in which naval symbols functioned

Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels SAMUEL JOHNSON 1775a tightly reasoned excellently written book that should be lethally effective in helping readers who arent experts understand the contours of the crisis TOLEDO BLADEUpdated and revised following the 2004 elections The Last Refuge describes the current state of American politics against the backdrop of mounting ecological and social problems the corrosive influence of money the corruption of language and the misuse of terrorism as a political issueSetting out an agenda that transcends conventional ideological labels David Orr contends that partisan wrangling is only a symptom of a deeper dysfunction The whole political machinery that connects Americans fundamentally honorable ideals with public policy is broken The book offers a withering critique of the failings of the Bush administration supplemented by new essays that look at the nationallevel dominance of the Republican Party and examine the fallacy that the evangelical right represents a Christian majorityAfter analyzing the challenges of reforming the current system Orr offers an empowering vision of a second American Revolution that peaceably achieves sustainability and charts a hopeful course for forwardlooking citizens

Patriotism and Public Spirit is an innovative study of the formative influences shaping the early writings of the IrishEnglish statesman Edmund Burke and an early casestudy of the relationship between the business of bookselling and the politics of criticism and persuasion Through a radical reassessment of the impact of Burkes Irishness and of his relationship with the Londonbased publisher Robert Dodsley the book argues that Burke saw Patriotism as the best way to combine public spirit with the reinforcement of civil order and to combat the use of coded partisan thinking to achieve the dominance of one section of the population over another No other study has drawn so extensively on the literary and commercial network through which Burkes first writings were published to help explain them By linking contemporary reinterpretations of the work of Patriot sympathizers and writers such as Alexander Pope and Lord Bolingbroke with generally neglected trends in religious and literary criticism in the Republic of Letters this book provides new ways of understanding Burkes early publications The results call into question fundamental assumptions about the course of Enlightenment thought and challenge currently dominant postcolonialist and Irish nationalist interpretations of the early Burke
