This book examines the extreme right in France during the interwar
period. It begins by describing the background of the French right
before 1914 and then provides commentary and analysis of the broad
range of the extra-parliamentary right in interwar France.
Organisations such as Action Francaise and the militant ligues are
examined as well as prominent extreme-right intellectuals such as
Lucien Rebatet, Robert Brasillach and Pierre Drieu la Rochelle. The
various forms of French anti-Semitism are assessed, and the book
also situates the French extreme right within a broader context by
assessing its impact on other European countries, including the UK.
It concludes by exploring the complicated politics of wartime
France where some extreme-right activists collaborated with the
Nazis while others opposed them, and where few generalisations
prove possible. This volume will be of great interest to scholars
and students of French history, the extreme right and interwar
politics.

This book is a sequel to Richard Griffiths's two highly successful
previous books on the British pro-Nazi Right, Fellow Travellers of
the Right: British Enthusiasts for Nazi Germany 1933-39 and
Patriotism Perverted: Captain Ramsay, the Right Club and British
Anti-Semitism 1939-1940. It follows the fortunes of his
protagonists after the arrests of May-June 1940, and charts their
very varied reactions to the failure of their cause, while also
looking at the possible reasons for the Government's failure to
detain prominent pro-Nazis from the higher strata of society. Some
of the pro-Nazis continued with their original views, and even
undertook politically subversive activity, here and in Germany.
Others, finding that their pre-war balance between patriotism and
pro-Nazism had now tipped firmly on the side of patriotism, fully
supported the war effort, while still maintaining their old views
privately. Other people found that events had made them change
their views sincerely. And then there were those who, frightened by
the prospect of detention or disgrace, tried to hide or even to
deny their former views by a variety of subterfuges, including
attacking former colleagues. This wide variety of reactions sheds
new light on the equally wide range of reasons for their original
admiration for Nazism, and also gives us some more general insight
into what could be termed 'the psychology of failure'.

This collection of nine essays, with an introduction by Richard
Griffiths, examines some of the broad themes relating to the way in
which the reading, translation and interpretation of the Bible in
the Renaissance could serve the specific and often practical aims
of those involved. Moving from humanist issues concerned with the
nature of the sacred texts and methods for interpreting them, the
volume examines the uses of the Bible in different contexts, and
looks at the social, political and religious impact of its
translations in the sixteenth century.

Martin Scorsese makes his first foray into children's cinema with
this semi-fantastical drama based on a book by Brian Selznick. Asa
Butterfield stars as Hugo, an orphan who lives in the hidden nooks
of a train station in 1920s Paris. With the help of his friend,
Isabelle (Chloë Moretz), he sets out to solve a mystery left behind
by his late father (Jude Law): a curious puzzle involving a
heart-shaped key, a cranky toy shop owner (Ben Kingsley) and a
broken automaton. Along the way, the tangled lives of the staff and
passengers at the station provide numerous colourful detours, and
Scorsese pays homage to early pioneers of cinema including the
Lumiere brothers and Georges Méliès. The film was nominated for
eleven Oscars and won five awards including Best Cinematography and
Best Visual Effects.

the Dreyfus Affair, as found in the newspapers, journals and books

period are investigated to show how authors' choice of stylistic
techniques show their aims.

With the transition into the Knowledge Economy, a formidable series
of new challenges arise within the corporate governance space. This
book tackles the issue of corporate governance along two axes.
Firstly, it confronts the developments in corporate governance
within the context of the Knowledge Economy and all its
implications in relation to the pre-eminence of intangible assets,
the advent of technologies such as smartphones and advanced forms
of artificial intelligence, and cultural changes associated with
the incorporation of Gen Y into the workforce and the proliferation
of social networks and effects such as Big Data and cyber-threats.
Secondly, it highlights the challenges for multinational
organizations and the tension that exists between headquarters and
subsidiary offices due to the need to combine the corporation's
ethical culture and corporate governance values with the
institutional forces of the subsidiaries' context. The combination
of these two axes addressed viz a viz the relationship between
senior management and the rank and file of the organization to
create an ethical corporate culture leads to a completely different
positioning of corporate governance and make the book truly unique
and of interest to researchers, students of corporate finance and
corporate governance alongside practitioners within financial
organizations and more broadly.
