“British Zionism: An interpretative survey” in A. Gal (ed.), World regional Zionism: Geo-cultural dimensions (Jerusalem: Zalman Shazar Centre for Jewish History, 2010), voll.III, 13-34
This essay re-examines the history of the Zionist movement in Great Britain between circa 1895 and circa 2002. It argues that whilst the Anglo-Jewish establishment was deeply suspicious of Zionism – certainly until the Holocaust – it received that establishment’s imprimatur because it served other ends: firstly, as a solution to the perceived ‘problem’ of an immigrant Jewish proletariat, then (after the Great War) as a device by which various Anglo-Jewish notables could promote their own communal agendas, and later, in the 1930s, as an alternative to communism as a conduit through which opposition to fascism could be articulated. Only after the Holocaust can it be said that Zionism, in its own right, became popular with the Anglo-Jewish masses. Read more >

William Blake and religion: A new critical view (Jefferson NC: McFarland, 2009)
The book examines the effect that Blake’s mother’s recently discovered Moravianism has had on our understanding of his poetry, and gives special attention to Moravianism and Swedenborgianism and their relation to his sexual politics. This is accomplished by a close reading of Blake’s poetry, examining in detail the subjects of religion, sex, and the attempted colonisation of Africa by a Swedenborgian utopian group. Read more >

In September Anne Hampton and James Rowell (Buckingham Business School) visited the ancient city of Cluj-Napoca in northern Romania. Legend has it that the city was founded by the Romans, and to remind everyone of this a statue of Romulus and Remus, with a wolf, themselves the founders of Rome, stands in the main thoroughfare of the city. However the purpose of their visit was to present their research paper at the International Conference for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises in European Economies. Read more >
(Re)Discovering Charity (Buckingham: University of Buckingham Press, 2009
(Re)Discovering Charity seeks to move beyond belief, opinion and secular ideology by analysing both the meaning of charity and, in parts 2 and 3, the characteristic manifestations of charity. Evidence suggests that far from creating dependency, true Christian charity fosters responsibility, hope and well-being. Charity is, in fact, Christianity’s effective response to social, spiritual and economic well-being. Read more >
