Heroines of the Tudor World
These are the women who ruled, the women who founded dynasties, the women who fought for religious freedom, their families and love. These are the women who made a difference, who influenced countries, kings and the Reformation.Heroines of the Tudor World focuses on the women who lived through the Renaissance and Reformation, examining the threats and challenges they faced and how they overcame them. Studying regents, writers, nuns and queens, and taking in the likes of Elizabeth Barton, Anne Boleyn, Catherine de Medici, Bess of Hardwick and Elizabeth I, Sharon Bennett Connolly shines the spotlight on the women who helped to shape Early Modern Europe.
Cracks in the Crescent
Pakistan is a country of intrigue and interest for many reasons. Envisioned as a homogeneous homeland for Muslims in Indian sub-continent, Pakistan has already witnessed an enduring fragmentation (with creation of Bangladesh) which raises question on the very idea of its creation. Given its strategic leverage, Pakistan had the potential of playing a major role in the regional dynamics as well amongst the comity of Islamic nations. Unfortunately, Pakistan has repeatedly floundered on successive opportunities, exposing its infirmity in pursuing a long-term progressive strategy.

A Kedves
Tizennyolc éve már, hogy a rabszolgaként született Sethe megszökött Édes Otthonból – de még most sem szabad. Fogva tartja a múlt: a farmon történt egykori borzalmak éppúgy, mint halott csecsemőjének szelleme, amely elátkozott kísértetházzá változtatja otthonát. Amikor egy nap a nő ajtajában megjelenik a farmról ismert Paul D., a férfi régi sebeket tép fel, és Sethének szembe kell néznie mindazzal, amit már rég eltemetett magában. Élőkkel és halottakkal egyaránt.
A Nobel-díjas írónő megtörtént eseményeken alapuló, megrázó erejű remekműve egyszerre történelmi utazás a rabszolgaság pokoli bugyraiba, és költészettel teli, hátborzongató kísértethistória, amelyet 1987-es megjelenése óta a modern amerikai irodalom egyik legkiemelkedőbb alkotásaként emlegetnek.

Buried Narratives and Unearthed Identities
The cultural sequences unearthed at Sakas are Neolithic, Neolithic-Chalcolithic and Chalcolithic. It examines multiple parameters, including the in-situ burial arrangements, demographic profiles, metric analysis, skeletal morphology, and palaeopathological markers. The analysis yielded significant insights into dietary habits, morphological variations, and indicators of habitual stress. Evidence of congenital conditions and degenerative pathologies suggests patterns of physically intensive labour and repetitive biomechanical stress. One of the study''s most notable discoveries was the identification of ischial bursitis (Weaver’s Bottom) in two individuals – an atypical condition within archaeological contexts, as this is reported for the first time in the Indian context and is likely indicative of prolonged seated activities or chronic pressure on the ischial region. Overall, the study provides a nuanced understanding of the health, lifestyle, and labour patterns of the people residing in the region, offering valuable contributions to the bioarchaeological record of ancient India. This book is the product of an interdisciplinary effort drawing upon archaeology and bioarchaeology.
What’s on the Tank?
The world of motorcycling is split like many parts of the world of motoring enthusiasm by the identity of its members’ vehicles. As with motor cars, every motorcycle make is identified by a specific marque name and badge, the origins of which are both wide-ranging and fascinating.Some makes remain well known, such as Triumph (a name chosen to be easily recognisable in every language) and Harley Davidson (named after the company’s founders), while other marques have been swallowed up by history. Once-great British names such as BSA (a name created from the initials of the parent company Birmingham Small Arms) and Douglas (named after the company founders) are no longer with us, but their owners’ clubs keep their names alive and well. BSA motorcycles would be badged with a ‘piled arms’ symbol comprising three rifles, while Douglas would acquire the figure of a Scotsman called ‘Douglas’. Overseas, Honda would choose a winged ‘H’ for all its motorcycles and Laverda would use the colours of the Italian flag.Michael Burgess explores the intriguing history of the names and badges of motorcycle manufacturers from around the world, some well-known, some more obscure, with a selection of high-quality images.

What could be so terrible that her father has kept it from her for her whole life—and is she ready for the trut? evised edition: Previously released as The Secret of the Brighton House, this edition of The Missing Mother of Rose Cottage includes editorial revisions. © 2026 by Cathy Hayward, all rights reserved.
Towards Reformed Multilateralism in the Era of Indo-Pacific
Asia is the fulcrum of the Indo-Pacific. The “Asian Age” or the “Asian Century” in the era of the Indo-Pacific is being redefined as a broader concept signalling the inevitable rise of different parts of Asia, which are home to some of the world’s most ancient civilizations. For the past two decades, if not more, Asia has re-emerged to shape global dynamics by involving many stakeholders from the extended neighbourhood of Africa, West Asia, Eurasia as well as the great powers that have a long-standing economic and security stake in different parts of Asia.
Bahamian Islanders on the Maritime Highway
Once regarded as a critical maritime highway in the wake of British abolition, the channels of The Bahamas became a crossroads where freedom, commerce, and control collided. As trade relationships shifted and power was renegotiated across the Atlantic world, the archipelago’s porous geography created opportunities for newly emancipated Black people—and, at the same time, for those determined to reassert systems of racial and economic dominance. In Bahamian Islanders on the Maritime Highway: Wrecking to Make a Reckoning, historian Lisa Lawlor Feller weaves together the microhistories of those who crossed these waters, illuminating a transnational Bahamian history often left at the margins. By placing The Bahamas at the intersection of Caribbean and Atlantic frameworks, she reveals the mobility, resilience, and complexity of everyday islanders whose lives shaped the region in lasting ways. Colonial records—ships’ logs, governors’ papers, educational reports—may seem dominated by dry statistics, yet careful reading uncovers the subtle presence of these voices. Set against the unique geographic and political position of The Bahamas, these fragments open new dimensions of understanding. This groundbreaking study calls for a reimagined framework of the "partially free" Atlantic world—one that embraces the fluid, liminal spaces of an archipelago that has long defied simple categorization. Centering Bahamian experience, Feller deepens our understanding of the region’s past and affirms the islands’ enduring importance as a site of connection, transition, and cultural insight within Caribbean studies.

Captive Audience
Lieutenant John Blomfield Dixon, East Riding Yeomanry, was twenty years old when he was captured near the village of Watou, Belgium, on 31 May 1940 during the retreat to Dunkirk. His combat career had been short but eventful, and now he began a long journey in captivity. He would be held in number of Oflags, POW camps for officers, including Laufen, Warburg, Posen, Biberach and finally Eichstätt in Bavaria. During his captivity, John recorded the highs and lows of camp life in a series of diaries. As the war progressed, he became more involved in camp theatrical productions, which included works by William Shakespear, Noël Coward and Benjamin Britten. John often played female roles, which he eventually grew to hate. He was finally released on 10 May 1945 after five long years behind the wire.Paul Johnson explores John’s account – his military service and capture, camp life, the efforts to escape, the killing of comrades, his hatred of both captors and captives, his participation in many theatrical performances, a forbidden love and his eventual return home. A fascinating selection of black and white and colourised photographs is also featured, depicting the life, laughs and love of a British POW in Germany during the Second World War.

Novelizovaný Trestný poriadok 17/2026
Novelizovaný Trestný poriadok s aktualizovanými dôvodovými správami v úplnom znení
Poslanci NRSR schválili 6. júna 2026 zákon č 168/2026 Z.z., ktorý v článku II s účinnosťou od 18.8.2026 zmenil a doplnil Trestný poriadok. Novela Trestného poriadku je natoľko rozsiahla (39 novelizačných bodov), že aktualizácia v súčasnosti distribuovaného NZ 4/2026 (Novelizový Trestný poriadok) formou doplnku by nesplnila požadovaný účel, preto sme sa rozhodli vydať nový NZ . Do uplného znenia Trestného poriadku sme popri zákone č. 168/2026 Z.z. zapracovali aj ďalšie zmeny vykonané zákonmi č. 327/2025 Z.z. a č. 69/2026 Z.z. (v rámiku za každým novelizovaným ustanovením v platnom znení sme uviedli pôvodné alebo v stanovených termínoch účinné znenie), ktoré nadobudli účinnosť 1. júla 2026 a 12. júna 2026, ako aj pozastavenie účinnosti (od 14.3.2026) odseku 6 v § 119 na základe uznesenia Ústavného súdu SR č. 41/2026 Z.z..
Dôvodové správy k všetkým trom novelám (aktualizované na základe prijatých pozmeňujúcich návrhov poslancov, resp. výborov NRSR) by mali zainteresovaným občanom a organizáciám objasniť zámery ich predkladateľov – v podstate ide o jediný výklad novelizovaných ustanovení, na ktorý prihliadajú súdy.
