The Happy Warrior: Winston Churchill and the Representation of War, 1895–1901 by Antoine Capet

“…The British Empire of course provided ample scope for military adventure, and once again young Churchill had all possible strings pulled for him in order to allow him to join the peace-keeping (in the sense of Pax Britannica) operations on the North-West frontier of India, in the Sudan (where he famously participated in the last cavalry charge in British history) and finally in South Africa, where his daring escape from his Boer prison in 1900 made him a world-wide celebrity. In all this, Churchill’s sense for self-publicity, which necessitated a glorification of war (no danger—no merit—no glory), seems to have projected a very misleading image of war as it really was at the turn of the century—his later description of these wars as “cruel and magnificent”, as opposed to the “cruel and squalid” war of 1914–1918 appears to belong with the celebrated “Churchill rhetoric”, in tune with the jingoistic atmosphere of the times, rather than historical fact.…”

Museographic narrating of dissonant heritage in Tianjin’s former international concessions by Maria Gravari-Barbas, Sandra Guinand, Yue Lu, Chensi Shen

“…The article captures and examines the main narratives from three perspectives: 1) revisiting the concession period as evidence of the beginning of modernity in China, which was a time in which celebrity life stories and the emergence of modern urban elements were praised; 2) considering the concessions as a dreamlike past of ‘others’ and ‘elsewheres’ belonging to a ‘foreign land’ and a context far removed from contemporary life in China, which favours the thematisation and leisure of Western architecture; and 3) selecting and targeting narratives focused on the heroes of the Republic of China (1912–1949) and the People’s Republic of China. …”

La fiesta del Inti Raymi en la construcción del Estado plurinacional en el Ecuador by Luis Alberto Tuaza

“…With an ethnographic approach to indigenous communities and a review of academic discourse surrounding plurinationality, it establishes a crisicism of the attempt to build the plurinational State through the celebration of this Andean festival. In conclusion it is considered that Inti Raymi, far from promoting the celebration of the multicultural nation, merely continues the process of folklorization of indigenous people while the current problems facing indigenous people remain invisible.…”
