 Thomas M. Truxes, "Ireland, France, and the Atlantic in a Time of War: Reflections on the BordeauxDublin Letters, 1757" English | ISBN: 1472468767 | 2017 | 232 pages | EPUB | 4 MB In March 1757 - early in the Seven Years' War - a British privateer intercepted an Irish ship, the Two Sisters of Dublin, as it returned home from Bordeaux with a cargo of wine and French luxury goods. Amongst the cargo seized were 125 letters from members of the Irish expatriate community, which were to lay undisturbed in the British archives for the next 250 years.
 Aude Bernard, "Internal Migration as a Life-Course Trajectory: Concepts, Methods and Empirical Applications " English | ISBN: 3031054229 | 2022 | 210 pages | PDF | 5 MB This book responds to growing calls to conceptualise and analyse internal migration as a trajectory that unfolds over the life course of individuals rather than a series of discrete events. It combines macro and micro modes of analysis into a cohort framework to explore how individuals transition from one migration to the next. The book presents new methodological developments in longitudinal analysis and applies them to internal migration in 27 European countries. It demonstrates that the traditional dichotomy between migrants and non-migrants conceals a wide range of migration behaviour and heterogeneity among repeat migrants. It also reveals a continuity of migration behaviour: being exposed to the challenges and benefits of migration early in life predisposes individuals toward migration in adulthood. By adopting a cohort approach to migration coupled with state-of-the-art methods and novel concepts, this book provides new insights into internal migration for graduate students, academics and policymakers interested in understanding migration behaviour in Europe and beyond.

The detailed introduction offers a short history of the field and outlines the main theoretical approaches to the field. Part one explains the approach, examining and exemplifying the dimensions that construct every media product. The following sections offer practical examples and case studies using many examples, which will be familiar to students, from Sherlock Holmes and football, to news, vlogs and videogames. This book is the only textbook taking both a theoretical and practical approach to Intermedial Studies. The book will be of use to students from a variety of disciplines looking at any form of adaptation, from comparative literature to film adaptations, fan fictions, and spoken performances. The book equips students with the language and understanding to confidently and competently apply their own intermedial analysis to any text.  Louise Miskell, "Intelligent Town: An Urban History of Swansea, 1780-1855 " English | ISBN: 0708325106 | 2012 | 254 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Intelligent Town is the first full-length study of Swansea's urban development from the late eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Louise Miskell tells the little-known story of how Swansea gained an unrivaled position of influence as an urban center-which led to its brief claim as the "metropolis of Wales," and how it then lost this status in the face of rapid urban development elsewhere in Wales.

A Warhammer 40,000 Collection" English | 2021 | ASIN: B09K82VKJX | 972 pages | EPUB | 2.1 MB A Warhammer 40,000 Short Story Collection  Charlene Mires, "Independence Hall in American Memory" English | ISBN: 0812222822 | 2013 | 368 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Independence Hall is a place Americans think they know well. Within its walls the Continental Congress declared independence in 1776, and in 1787 the Founding Fathers drafted the U.S. Constitution there. Painstakingly restored to evoke these momentous events, the building appears to have passed through time unscathed, from the heady days of the American Revolution to today. But Independence Hall is more than a symbol of the young nation. Beyond this, according to Charlene Mires, it has a long and varied history of changing uses in an urban environment, almost all of which have been forgotten.
