New Releases: August 2023
This month, we are pleased to release four new titles spanning a wide range of topics from queer film in early-twentieth-century Germany to Indigenous Pentecostalism in Canada. These new books include the latest additions to our Queer Film Classics Series, Studies in Leadership, Public Policy, and Governance Series, and Advancing Studies in Religion Series.
Check out the complete list of August releases below!
Anders als die Andern
Released in 1919, Anders als die Andern is a remarkable artefact of the pre-Stonewall homosexual rights movement of early-twentieth-century Germany. Ervin Malakaj shows how the film’s “mournful cinema” is key to its endurance, fostering connection through emotions and acting as a springboard to engage in an intergenerational queer struggle.
Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times
Living the British Empire in Jamaica, 1756
A collection of around 350 letters bound for London from Jamaica reveals much about colonial life in 1756. Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times paints a picture of the daily life of poor and middling whites, free people of colour, and enslaved people against the backdrop of transatlantic slavery in Jamaica and the eighteenth-century British Empire.
Natural Allies
Environment, Energy, and the History of US-Canada Relations
Over the past century and a half, no two nations have exchanged natural resources, produced transborder environmental agreements, or cooperatively altered ecosystems on the same scale as Canada and the United States. Natural Allies offers a reinterpretation of the history of US-Canada relations by focusing on the role of environment and energy.
The Holy Spirit and the Eagle Feather
The Struggle for Indigenous Pentecostalism in Canada
The Holy Spirit and the Eagle Feather traces the history of Indigenous Pentecostalism in Canada. It tells the story of how Indigenous Pentecostals overcame the entrenched colonialism of the mission-led church to become religious leaders in their own communities, as well as agents for decolonization and reconciliation.
