Looking Back on 20th Century Armed Conflicts
Edited by Tom Burns, Volker Jaeckel, Elcio Cornelsen, and Luiz Gustavo Vieira This volume follows the radical change in the nature of armed conflicts and the way they are narrated and represented since the First World War, which rendered meaningless the very vocabulary of such terms as "battle," "front," "non-combatant," "open city," and "hero." Contributors consider representations of the Canudos Civil War in Brazil, the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the colonial wars in Africa, and the war in Afghanistan.

Morality and Aesthetics in British Literature This volume considers shifting conceptions of decadence in art and society at various moments in British literature. Contributors explore the inherent conflict between society's moral contempt toward purportedly decadent artists and the artist's belief that the stranglehold society maintained on individual interpretation was true decadence.
