Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

transformation, cultural confidence, and creative influence also
grow steadily. This book explores socio-cultural context, in which
new trends, enabled by the power of digital technology, emerge.

founded by Gustav Groeber in 1905, is among the most renowned
publications in Romance Studies. It covers the entire field of
Romance linguistics, including the national languages as well as
the lesser studied Romance languages. The editors welcome
submissions of high-quality monographs and collected volumes on all
areas of linguistic research, on medieval literature and on textual
criticism. The publication languages of the series are French,
Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian as well as German and
English. Each collected volume should be as uniform as possible in
its contents and in the choice of languages.
In celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Paris Commune,
leftist writers Olivier Besancenot and Michael Loewy offer a deeply
informed, and eminently enjoyable, imagined history of what might
have been if Karl Marx and his eldest daughter, Jenny, had
travelled to Paris during the heady weeks of April 1871. In
disguise, employing imperfect but serviceable French, Karl and
Jenny encounter and debate many important figures of the movement,
including Leo Frankel, Eugene Varlin, Charles Longuet, Elisabeth
Dmitrieff, and Louise Michel, eventually returning to England with
a profoundly changed sense of political possibility.
Published in 1987: Erec and Enide, the first of five surviving
