They were convinced that they were God’s Elect, specially chosen by the Almighty to be the first to ascend to Paradise on Judgement Day, as told in the Book of Revelation. And it would all happen here, in ‘New Jerusalem’ (as they renamed the city), during Easter 1535, when God and Christ would descend and usher in the End Times. But the ‘Melchiorites’, as they were called after their founding prophet, would be well-prepared for Apocalypse, swiftly turning the city into a Christian theocracy: They threw out the Catholics and Lutherans, ‘rebaptised’ their followers, destroyed all old religious icons, adopted a communist system of shared property, and imposed a new law of polygamy that compelled all women and girls who’d reached puberty to marry. Because women outnumbered men about three times, many men had 3-5 wives. John of Leiden, who proclaimed himself ‘king’ of New Jerusalem, had 16 wives – all according to God’s exhortation in Genesis to ‘go forth and multiply’. The backlash against the sect would be long and brutal. The Catholic and Lutheran powers were determined to make a terrible example of what they saw as a dangerous mob of crazed heretics. And so began the siege of Munster. For 18 months, the city was shut off from the world, periodically attacked and then slowly starved. And yet, for most of this time, the sect clung to their faith with astonishing resilience, even as they descended into hellish suffering. ‘New Jerusalem: Judgement Day 1535’ is a story of religious obsession and persecution, of noble ideals trampled to dust, of slavish sexual surrender….all in the name of Christ. It tells of one of the first violent revolts of the Reformation, which, together with the Peasants’ War of 1524-25, helped to ignite 110 years of religious conflict that ended with the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648. The story holds a terrible fascination in our own time, on the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, scarred again by the return of religious wars, of hatred and slaughter, all in the name of a god or a faith.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Paul Ham \/ William Heinemann Australia","offer_id":47113194373368,"sku":null,"price":2550.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/NewJerusalem.webp?v=1760123589"},{"product_id":"in-command-of-history","title":"In Command of History","description":"\u003cp\u003eChurchill fought the war twice over - as Prime Minister and again as its premier historian. in 1948-54 he published six volumes of memoirs which secured his reputation and shaped our understanding of the conflict to this day.Using the drafts and correspondence for The Second World War, David Reynolds opens our eyes to Churchill the author and to the research 'syndicate' on whom he depended.

When Charles Edward Stuart, commonly known as the Young Pretender, sailed from France to Scotland in July 1745, and with only a handful of supporters to claim the throne for his exiled father, few people within Britain were alarmed. But after he raised the Stuart standard at Glenfinnan in the Western Highlands, destroyed a contingent of the British army at Prestonpans near Edinburgh, and then marched south into England, swiftly reaching Derby, the rising threatened to destabilise the British state, dethrone King George and the Hanoverian dynasty, while disrupting Britain's military capability in Europe and colonial activities in America and beyond. Less than four decades after the controversial Act of Union between Scotland and England, arrogance and incompetence on the part of government ministers had allowed the small danger Charles and his Jacobite army had initially posed to escalate into a full-scale civil war: part of the on-going dynastic, political and ideological struggle for the heart and soul of this new nation. Yet the reality of the '45 continues to be obscured by fiction and myth, as personified by the heroic, gallant but doomed 'Bonnie Prince Charlie' versus the heartless victor, 'Butcher' Cumberland. In the years 1745-6 nothing was certain. While utilising past and recent scholarship, this magnificent account draws extensively on a wealth of contemporary sources, revealing the thoughts and feelings of the key players and local eyewitnesses as these extraordinary events played out. What emerges is a story more complex, paradoxical and even tragic than the myth suggests.

Regularly, repeatedly, and with impunity, queens like Hatshepsut, Nefertiti, and Cleopatra controlled the totalitarian state as power-brokers and rulers. But throughout human history, women in positions of power were more often used as political pawns in male-dominated societies. Why did ancient Egypt provide women this kind of access to the highest political office? What was it about these women that allowed them to transcend patriarchal obstacles? What did Egypt gain from its liberal reliance on female leadership, and could today's world learn from its example?In this captivating narrative, celebrated Egyptologist Kara Cooney delivers a fascinating tale of female power, exploring the reasons why it has seldom been allowed through the ages--and why we should care.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Kara Cooney \/ National Geographic","offer_id":47113601351928,"sku":null,"price":3050.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/WhenWomenRuledtheWorld_SixQueensofEgypt.webp?v=1760136375"},{"product_id":"an-appeal-to-the-ladies-of-hyderabad-scandal-in-the-raj","title":"An Appeal to the Ladies of Hyderabad: Scandal in the Raj","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe dramatic story of Mehdi Hasan and Ellen Donnelly, whose marriage convulsed high society in nineteenth-century India and whose notorious trial and fall reverberated throughout the British Empire, setting the benchmark for Victorian scandals.In April 1892, a damning pamphlet circulated in the south Indian city of Hyderabad, the capital of the largest and wealthiest princely state in the British Raj. An anonymous writer charged Mehdi Hasan, an aspiring Muslim lawyer from the north, and Ellen Donnelly, his Indian-born British wife, with gross sexual misconduct and deception. The scandal that ensued sent shock waves from Calcutta to London. Who wrote this pamphlet, and was it true?Mehdi and Ellen had risen rapidly among Hyderabad’s elites. On a trip to London they even met Queen Victoria. Not long after, a scurrilous pamphlet addressed to “the ladies of Hyderabad” charged the couple with propagating a sham marriage for personal gain. Ellen, it was claimed, had been a prostitute, and Mehdi was accused of making his wife available to men who could advance his career. To avenge his wife and clear his name, Mehdi filed suit against the pamphlet’s printer, prompting a trial that would alter their lives.Based on private letters, courtroom transcripts, secret government reports, and scathing newspaper accounts, Benjamin Cohen’s riveting reconstruction of the couple’s trial and tribulations lays bare the passions that ran across racial lines and the intimate betrayals that doomed the Hasans. Filled with accusations of midnight trysts and sexual taboos, An Appeal to the Ladies of Hyderabad is a powerful reminder of the perils facing those who tried to rewrite society’s rules. In the struggle of one couple, it exposes the fault lines that would soon tear a world apart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Benjamin B.

The scheme became known as the Gourd Patch or Lewellen Conspiracy. The men called themselves the Brethren.The Brethren opposed patriot leaders’ demand for militia volunteers and worried that “enlightened” deist principles would be enshrined in the state constitution, displacing their Protestant faith. The patriots’ attempts to ally with Catholic France only exacerbated the Brethren’s fears of looming heresy. Brendan McConville follows the Brethren as they draw up plans for violent action. After patriot militiamen threatened to arrest the Brethren as British sympathizers in the summer of 1777, the group tried to spread false rumors of a slave insurrection in hopes of winning loyalist support. But a disaffected insider denounced the movement to the authorities, and many members were put on trial. Drawing on contemporary depositions and legal petitions, McConville gives voice to the conspirators’ motivations, which make clear that the Brethren did not back the Crown but saw the patriots as a grave threat to their religion.Part of a broader Southern movement of conscription resistance, the conspiracy compels us to appreciate the full complexity of public opinion surrounding the Revolution. Many colonists were neither loyalists nor patriots and came to see the Revolutionary government as coercive.

Philip Jenkins reveals how the widespread belief in angels, apparitions, and the supernatural, was a driving force throughout the war and shaped all three of the Abrahamic religions - Christianity, Judaism, and Islam - paving the way for modern views of religion and violence. The disappointed hopes and moral compromises that followed the war also shaped the political climate of the rest of the century, giving rise to such phenomena as Nazism, totalitarianism, and communism.

It is an amazing account of Arab militaries doing what America would not, preventing Iran from taking a foothold on the Arabian Peninsula. The risks for global security were huge: Iran already overshadowed one of the world's greatest maritime straits, at Hormuz, and now it sought to dominate the southern approaches to the Suez Canal as well. Aden had to hold out against the Houthis. The Gulf States were used to America stepping up at such moments, but the White House was partway through negotiating a nuclear deal with Iran. No help would come from Washington. Instead, for the first time, the Gulf States acted alone. Told by an expert communicator on the region, it is a unique story. If the US is truly a global empire in decline, then the story may hold important pointers for a future of warfare driven by emergent powers in the gap left by the withdrawal of American influence.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933867294968,"sku":null,"price":2250.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/25DaystoAdenTheUnknownStoryofArabianEliteForcesatWar.webp?v=1769593664"},{"product_id":"1945-victory-in-the-west","title":"1945: Victory in the West","description":"\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"1790\" height=\"60\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 1342.53pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"1790\" style=\"width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"60\" style=\"height: 45.00pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"et2\" height=\"60\" width=\"1790\" style=\"height: 45.00pt; width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003eMarch 1945. Allied troops are poised to cross the Rhine and sweep on into Germany. Victory is finally within their grasp. But if they believe this victory can be easily won, they face swift disillusionment. The final 100 days of the Second World War will prove to be bitterly and bloodily fought, village by village, town by town.In Victory in the West 1945 acclaimed military historian Peter Caddick-Adams brings this closing stage of the Allies' fight against Nazi Germany brilliantly to life. He explores the immense challenges they faced in crossing the Rhine on a 300-mile front. He tells stories of individual acts of resolve and heroism, of often exhausted troops pressing forward attacks in the face of ferocious resistance. He recounts their shocked first encounters with the barbarities of Hitler's regime as they reached the gates of Buchenwald, Belsen and Dachau. And he goes behind the front line to analyse the strategic decisions made at Allied headquarters and to offer pin-sharp portraits of the military leaders.Throughout he draws on a vast range of memoirs and personal interviews with survivors to give a vivid sense of what it was like to encounter enemy combatants and civilians face to face. Compulsively readable, this will be the standard work on the closing days of the Second World War for a generation.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933881352440,"sku":null,"price":1750.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/1945VictoryintheWest.webp?v=1769594059"},{"product_id":"a-blueprint-for-war-fdr-and-the-hundred-days-that-mobilized-america","title":"A Blueprint for War FDR and the Hundred Days that Mobilized America","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Blueprint for War: FDR and the Hundred Days That Mobilized America by Susan Dunn examines the critical period between December 1940 and March 1941, when Franklin D.

But the monetary landscape was ambivalent so that the forces unifying monetary practice (imperial and national currencies, global monetary standards such as the gold standard) coexisted with the proliferation of local currencies. Money became a central issue in politics, the arts, and sciences - and the modern discipline of economics was born, with its claim to a monopoly on knowing and governing money. Drawing upon a wealth of visual and textual sources, A Cultural History of Money in the Age of Empire presents essays that examine key cultural case studies of the period on the themes of technologies, ideas, ritual and religion, the everyday, art and representation, interpretation, and the issues of the age.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933885776120,"sku":null,"price":2550.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/A_Cultural_History_of_Money_in_the_Age_of_Empire_Book_Cover.webp?v=1792608805"},{"product_id":"a-perfidious-distortion-of-history-the-versailles-peace-treaty-and-the-success-of-the-nazis","title":"A Perfidious Distortion of History: the Versailles Peace Treaty and the success of the Nazis","description":"\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"1790\" height=\"40\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 1342.53pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"1790\" style=\"width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"40\" style=\"height: 30.00pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"et2\" height=\"40\" width=\"1790\" style=\"height: 30.00pt; width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003eControversially challenges the conventional wisdom that the Versailles Peace Treaty sowed the seeds for World War II.The Versailles Peace Treaty, the pact between Germany and the Allies that ended World War I, has not enjoyed a positive reputation since its signing in June 1919. Conventional wisdom has it that the treaty’s requirements for massive reparation payments crippled the economy of the Weimar Republic and destabilized its political life. Ultimately, it is believed, the treaty prevented the seeds of democracy sown in the aftermath of the Great War from flourishing, and drove the German people into the arms of Adolf Hitler.In this authoritative book, Jurgen Tampke disputes this commonplace view. He argues that Germany got away with its responsibility for World War I and its behavior during it; that the treaty was nowhere near as punitive as has been long felt; that the German hyperinflation of the 1920s was at least partly a deliberate policy to minimize the cost of paying reparations; and that World War II was a continuation of Germany’s longstanding war aims.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933886791928,"sku":null,"price":2150.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/APerfidiousDistortionofHistorytheVersaillesPeaceTreatyandthesuccessoftheNazis.webp?v=1769594555"},{"product_id":"all-she-lost-the-explosion-in-lebanon-the-collapse-of-a-nation-and-the-women-who-survive-between-civil-war-israel-and-hezbollah","title":"All She Lost The Explosion in Lebanon, the Collapse of a Nation and the Women who Survive - Between Civil War, Israel and Hezbollah","description":"\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"1790\" height=\"60\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 1342.53pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"1790\" style=\"width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"60\" style=\"height: 45.00pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"et2\" height=\"60\" width=\"1790\" style=\"height: 45.00pt; width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003eLebanese journalist Dalal Mawad investigates the modern history of Lebanon from the port explosion and civil war to the role of Hezbollah and Israel - and weaves an extraordinary story of survival, corruption and impunity through the stories of the women who survive'Poignant and compelling' - Lindsey Hilsum'Essential and urgent' - Kim GhattasLebanon and the Middle East is in crisis. For this extraordinary book, journalist Dalal Mawad conducted a series of searing interviews with women in Lebanon - weaving an extraordinary story of survival, corruption and impunity.She begins with a huge explosion in the heart of Beirut that killed hundreds of people – it was the apocalypse of a sequence of events that have led to Lebanon's unprecedented collapse. Award-winning journalist Dalal Mawad was in Lebanon when the blast happened, and was one of the first journalists to report on the mysterious and devastating explosion.During her reporting, she discovered something else – that it is the women who stay behind, and it is through their stories that the history of the Middle East must be re-constructed. She set out to record the stories of those she met, the women long discriminated against, and those whose stories are untold. She spoke to mothers who lost their children, spouses who lost their partners, refugee women who have fled from the war in Syria – and who now find themselves in another failing state. We hear from the Lebanese grandmother, bankrupted by the small nation's collapse, who remembers Beirut's glory days of the 1960s – when the likes of Brigitte Bardot and Miles Davis came to Beirut. And then the women like Dalal herself, who have left their home behind.The women in this book all experienced the explosion and suffered unimaginable loss and tragedy, but it is not just this one event that brings them together. Their personal stories converged to tell the story of a nation whose glory days are long gone, now riven by protracted violence, lurching from crisis to crisis, and fighting to survive. It tells not only of what these women have lost, but also what Lebanon has lost, and a part of the Middle East that is no more.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933889183992,"sku":null,"price":2350.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/AllSheLostTheExplosioninLebanon_theCollapseofaNationandtheWomenwhoSurvive-BetweenCivilWar_IsraelandHezbollah.webp?v=1769594816"},{"product_id":"an-alfred-russel-wallace-companion","title":"An Alfred Russel Wallace Companion","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn Alfred Russel Wallace Companion, edited by Charles H.

Luce sponsored the greatest collaboration of intellectuals in the twentieth century. He and University of Chicago president Robert Maynard Hutchins summoned the theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, the Pulitzer-winning poet Archibald MacLeish, and ten other preeminent thinkers to join the Commission on Freedom of the Press. They spent three years wrestling with subjects that are as pertinent as ever: partisan media and distorted news, activists who silence rather than rebut their opponents, conspiracy theories spread by shadowy groups, and the survivability of American democracy in a post-truth age. The report that emerged, A Free and Responsible Press, is a classic, but many of the commission’s sharpest insights never made it into print.

From Leonardo da Vinci’s imaginative experiments with nature’s destructive forces to the fevered fantasies of doomsday astrologers, from the self-fulfilling prophecies of Shakespeare’s tragic characters to the mental earthquakes that guided Kant toward his theory of the sublime, Passannante shows how and why the early moderns reached for disaster when they ventured beyond the limits of the sensible.

He left behind a small oeuvre of private writings from the Second World War: fragments and observations of life from the midst of catastrophe that, with their evocative power and precision, would make a permanent place for him in German letters. Posted to Paris in 1940 to conduct archival research, Hartlaub recorded his impressions of the unfamiliar city in notebooks that document with unparalleled immediacy the daily realities of occupation. With a painter's eye for detail, Hartlaub writes of the bustle of civilians and soldiers in cafes, of half-seen trysts during blackout hours and the sublime light of Paris in spring. Appearing in English for the first time, Clouds Over Paris is a unique testament to the persistence of ordinary life through disaster\"--Publisher's description.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933940039928,"sku":null,"price":2350.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/CloudsOverParisTheWartimeNotebooksofFelixHartlaub.webp?v=1769598145"},{"product_id":"contested-lands-a-history-of-the-middle-east-from-the-first-world-war-to-the-present","title":"Contested Lands A History of the Middle East From the First World War to the Present","description":"\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"1790\" height=\"40\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 1342.53pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"1790\" style=\"width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"40\" style=\"height: 30.00pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"et2\" height=\"40\" width=\"1790\" style=\"height: 30.00pt; width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003eA history of the last century of tensions in the Middle East.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eUntil the First World War, the Ottoman Empire had dominated the Middle East for four centuries. Its collapse, coupled with the subsequent clash of European imperial policies, unleashed a surge of political feelings among the people of the Middle East as they vied for national self-determination. Over the century that followed, the region has become almost synonymous with unrest and conflict. ​ An accessible survey of the last century, Contested Lands tells the story of what happened in the Middle East and what it means today. T. G. Fraser analyzes the fault lines of the tension, including the damage brought by imperialism, the creation of the State of Israel, competition between secular rulers and emerging democratic and theocratic forces, and the rise of Arab Nationalism in the face of fraying regional alliances and the Islamic revival. Fraser offers a close look at how the events of the twenty-first century—the tragedy of 9\/11, the Arab Spring, and Syria’s civil war—have combined with complex social and economic changes to transform the region. Untangling the history of the Middle East, this book offers a detailed and insightful picture of the region and why its heritage remains important today.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933943185656,"sku":null,"price":2350.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/ContestedLandsAHistoryoftheMiddleEastFromtheFirstWorldWartothePresent.webp?v=1769598257"},{"product_id":"daguerreotypes-fugitive-subjects-contemporary-objects","title":"Daguerreotypes Fugitive Subjects, Contemporary Objects","description":"\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"1790\" height=\"40\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 1342.53pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol width=\"1790\" style=\"width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"40\" style=\"height: 30.00pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"et2\" height=\"40\" width=\"1790\" style=\"height: 30.00pt; width: 1342.50pt;\"\u003eIn the digital age, photography confronts its future under the competing signs of ubiquity and obsolescence. While technology has allowed amateurs and experts alike to create high-quality photographs in the blink of an eye, new electronic formats have severed the original photochemical link between image and subject. At the same time, recent cinematic photography has stretched the concept of photography and raised questions about its truth value as a documentary medium. Despite this situation, photography remains a stubbornly substantive form of evidence: referenced by artists, filmmakers, and writers as a powerful emblem of truth, photography has found its home in other media at precisely the moment of its own material demise.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eBy examining this idea of photography as articulated in literature, film, and the graphic novel, Daguerreotypes demonstrates how photography secures identity for figures with an otherwise unstable sense of self. Lisa Saltzman argues that in many modern works, the photograph asserts itself as a guarantor of identity, whether genuine or fabricated. From Roland Barthes’s Camera Lucida to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, W. G. Sebald’s Austerlitz to Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home—we find traces of photography’s “fugitive subjects” throughout contemporary culture. Ultimately, Daguerreotypes reveals how the photograph, at once personal memento and material witness, has inspired a range of modern artistic and critical practices.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Generationbookscollection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933945610488,"sku":null,"price":2350.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/files\/DaguerreotypesFugitiveSubjects_ContemporaryObjects.webp?v=1769598443"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3281\/2024\/collections\/History.webp?v=1792073744","url":"https:\/\/generationbookscollection.pk\/collections\/history.oembed?page=7","provider":"Generation Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
