‎DARK THOUGHTS: RACE AND THE ECLIPSE OF SOCIETY‎

‎London: Routledge. Very Good;. 2002. First Edition. Softcover. 0415934451 . Excellent condition - ex-library with heavy laminated cover and usual stamps & stickers - only light wear overall. Interior clean & unmarked. Description: In Dark Thoughts prominent sociologist Charles Lemert compellingly argues that race is the central feature of modern culture; this was true for the twentieth century and it will be true for the twenty-first. If we want to understand how the world works Lemert explains we must understand the centrality of race in our lives and in the foundation of our society. We must also be able to face up to what we've done to one another in the name of race. In his characteristically engaging prose the book tells of the important moments of the twentieth century through the writings of such major figures as W. E. B. Du Bois Charlotte Perkins Gilman Anna Julia Cooper Nella Larson and Malcolm X always with an eye to the complicated ways that race weaves itself through the fabric of our lives. Dark Thoughts reflects the most urgent social issues at the beginning of the twenty-first century: race relations multiculturalism and social justice. ; 8vo . Routledge paperback‎

‎Contested Identities : Gender and Kinship in Modern Greece‎

‎In this collection leading anthropologists provide a comprehensive yet highly nuanced view of what it means to be a Greek man or woman, married or unmarried, functioning within a complex society based on kinship ties. Exploring the ways in which sexual identity is constructed, these authors discuss, for example, how going out for coffee embodies dominant ideas about female sexuality, moral virtue, and autonomy; why men in a Lesbos village maintain elaborate friendships with nonfamily members while the women do not; why young housewives often participate in conflict-resolution rituals; and how the dominant role of mature married householders is challenged by unmarried persons who emphasize spontaneity and personal autonomy. This collection demonstrates that kinship and gender identities in Greece are not unitary and fixed: kinship is organized in several highly specific forms, and gender identities are plural, competing, antagonistic, and are continually being redefined by contexts and social change. Contents: Part One : Gender and kinship in marries life Part Two ; Gender, Kinship and Religion: 'Reconstructing' the Anthropology of Greece by Jill Dubisch; Cosmos and Gender in Village Greece by Juliet du Boulay; Silence, Submission and subversion: Towards a Poetics of Womenhood by Michael Herzfeld; The Resolution of a Conflict through song in Greek Ritual Therapy by Loring Danforth; The Limits of K inship by Roger Just. PART TWO GENDER AND KINSHIP OUTSIDE MARRIAGE: Sisters in Christ: Metaphors of kinship among Greek nuns by A Marina Iossafides; Friends of the Heart: Male Commensal Solidarity, Ge nder and kinship in Aegean Greece by Evthymios Papataxiarchis: Going out for Coffee? Contesting the Grounds of Gendered Pleasures in evryday Sociability by Jane Cowan; Hunters and Hunted: Kamaki and t he ambiguities of sexual Predation in a Grek Town by Sofka Zinovieff; Gender, Sexuality and the Person in Greek Culture by Peter Loizos and Evthymios Papataxiarchis.259p. plates. bibliography.index Book‎

‎MANUSCRIPT: BOARD OF CUSTOMS‎

‎Customs establishment for summer quarter ending the 5th of July 1769. And Customs establishment for Michaelmas quarter ending the 10th October‎

‎1769. Two vols. large folio 48 x 30 cms 74 4 and 74 2 pages written up in ink in a neat contemporary clerical hand all on rectos all versos and additional unused leaves also ruled in red ink ledger style bound in uniform contemporary vellum panelled in gilt with the large gilt arms of the Custom House London> on each cover all edges gilt. In fine crisp state of preservation. Two extremely rare consecutive original ledgers recording in the greatest detail the complete establishment of the Customs in England and Wales for a six month period in 1769. A search for holdings of these manuscripts confirms that there is a complete set of all 607 volumes of the establishment lists of the Board of Customs 1671 to 1909 covering the period 1675 - 1813 at the Public Record Office Kew. There appear to be other copies only at Cambridge University Library ref. ADD 5224-81 which has a substantial run covering the period from 1763 to 1829. The British Library also holds establishment lists for 1762-63 and Sheffield archives those for 1765-66. None is held by the Guildhall Library nor by the London Metropolitan Archives. Although these two volumes only cover the six month period from April to October 1769 they provide an extraordinarily detailed portrait of one of the key departments of government in mid-18th century Britain. They show a massively expensive civil service department headed by 9 Commissioners each on a basic salary of �1000 p.a. one of whom was Corbyn Morris d. 1779. Each of the members of staff is named and each salary or other remuneration is recorded with the relevant job title. And so in London alone the cost of the vast establishment of commissioners receivers comptrollers clerks inspectors examiners surveyors warehousekeepers doorkeepers messengers land carriage men coastwaiters watermen watchmen noontenders weighing porters landwaiters tidesurveyors preventive officers tidesmen searchers and so on amounted to a massive �17485 for this half year alone. Although the port of London saw something like 75% of all British import trade there were of course numerous other ports of entry each with its own Customs' staff. These establishment accounts actually list 71 such ports many of them remaining recognisable ports today but others now of little more than historical curiosity for example Arundell Aldeburgh Chepstow Faversham Ilfracombe Minehead Maldon Penryn Preston Southwold Woodbridge and Wisbech. The Harwich team cost a little over �234 for three months. Of this the Collector Griffith Davies was paid �30 the Inspector of the Waterguard �15 and the Tidesurveyor also �15. A waiter and searcher operating at Manningtree cost �10. The biggest expense was for the crew of the Customs' smack the commander one Cyprian Bridge getting �50 per annum with the 14-man crew costing approaching �430 for a whole year a figure that included food. 1769 hardcover‎
