History of German Universities

This article has three main goals. Firstly, it intends to present the interesting but little-studied intellectual figure of Sir Francis Kynaston (1586ca.–1642), his educational enterprises, and his contributions to 17th-century English culture. Secondly, it aims to illustrate in detail his often neglected or, at best, misunderstood political ideas and connect them to the type of debates and controversies he was involved in at the end of the 1620s. In doing so, one of the principal objectives will be to revisit the traditional scholarly interpretations of Kynaston's place within the history of political thought in early modern England. In particular, attention will be paid to the language Kynaston employed to attack a specific political paradigm, that is parliamentarian “patriotism”. Finally, the essay will endeavour to show the interplay between Kynaston's educational project and cultural ideals, on one side, and his absolutist political doctrines and goals, on the other.     

德意志“历史学派”传统与纳粹主义

不少历史学家与经济学家将罗斯福“新政”与希特勒“新经济政策”视为凯恩斯主义模式运用上的开端 ,这早已成为一种习惯。美国著名经济学家约翰·肯尼思·加尔布雷思曾著文《凯恩斯主义在美国》 ,对此作过一点小小的“修正”。这位前美国哈佛大学教授谈到 ,1 933年罗斯福就任美国总统并开始奉行“新政”以后 ,凯恩斯本人以及他的思想在美国仍然遭到冷遇 ,以致于美国既未能真正克服 1 92 9至 1 933年的经济大危机 ,也未能阻止 1 937至 1 938年危机的到来 ,只是到 1 939年 9月第二次世界大战爆发后 ,凯恩斯主义的补救方法才真正为美国所接受。…     

Silences Broken,Silences Kept: Gender and Sexuality in African-American History

In 1989, Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham observed that African Americanists paid scant attention to issues of gender and women's historians typically ignored questions of race; she warned that this silence compromised the very analysis of US history. Much has changed since Higginbotham issued her cautionary words. Not only has Americanist literature on gender and race grown exponentially over the past ten years, African-Americanist gender historians have produced some of the most influential monographs and articles in their field. This article surveys a decade's worth of conceptual breakthroughs in African-Americanist historiography as it ponders the question of whether certain silences still remain.
