Stories of Peoplehood: The Politics and Morals of Political Memberships
Rogers M. Smith

How is a sense of belonging to a political community created? Rogers Smith suggests that Stories of Peoplehood, narratives which include racial, religious, ethnic and cultural elements, serve to make membership of a political group part of an individuals' identity. He argues that competition over accounts of a nation's history and culture is thus an important part of political life.

The Languages of Paradise: Aryans and Semites A Match made in Heaven
Maurice Olender, translated by Arthur Goldhammer

Michel Foucault observed that "the birth of philology attracted far less notice in the Western mind than did the birth of biology or political economy." In this penetrating exploration of the origin of the discipline, Maurice Olender shows that philology left an indelible mark on Western visions of history, and contributed directly to some of the most horrifying ideologies of the twentieth century.
