The Republican Alternative
Author: André Holenstein
Publisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9089640053
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
The Republican Alternative seeks to move beyond the mere notion of scholarly inquiry into the republic—the subject of recent rediscovery by political historians interested in Europe’s intellectual heritage—by investigating the practical similarities and differences between two early modern republics, as well as their self-images and interactions during the turbulent seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Among the world’s most economically successful societies, Switzerland and the Netherlands laid much of the foundation for their prosperity during the early modern period discussed here. This volume attempts to clarify the special character of these two countries as they developed, including issues of religious plurality, the republican form of government, and an increasingly commercially-driven agrarian society.

The Prince and I - Miss Olive
Author: William A. Stricklin
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1645304329
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 1075
Book Description
The Prince and I: Miss Olive By: William A. Stricklin William A. Stricklin’s governess from 1938 to 1946, Miss Olive, was previously one of the servants for the daughter and two sons of her widowed friend Sangwan. The oldest son, at nine-years-old, was proclaimed King of Siam Ananda Mahidol Rama VIII in 1935. On June 9, 1946 King Ananda was found shot in the head four days before returning to Switzerland to finish his doctorate degree. His younger brother, Bhumi Adulyadej then ascended the throne as King of Siam Rama IX. As Miss Olive left Siam in 1937, she was not one of the three servants who were falsely executed for King Ananda’s murder. Miss Olive feared telling her side of the story until the passing of King Rama IX in 2016. Respectful of the terms of the “non-fiction contract,” where facts have been forever lost to history,Stricklin presents The Prince and I - Miss Olive as a historical novel. Readers will observe that the book is almost entirely non-fiction and, in any event, remains a fascinating unsolved murder mystery
