"This wide-ranging, intricate, penetrating analysis of the developing process of enclosure and exploitation during a critical era of the development of capitalism in the Atlantic world, and the manifold modes of popular resistance, provides fascinating insight into the origins of our society, with rich implications for addressing its crimes and its current race to destruction."--Noam Chomsky
"It's often assumed that superb scholarship and beautiful writing are rival forces, but in Peter Linebaugh's work they are the same tremendous force evoking and contextualizing moments of crisis and possibility in the past with a vividness that casts new light on our own time."--Rebecca Solnit, author of A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities That Arise in Disaster "Poetic and moving, Red Round Globe Hot Burning shows what history can do. This is the work of a historian of genius, rich in detail, powerfully written, and animated by a passion for justice."--Silvia Federici, author of Caliban and the Witch: Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation "A remarkable tour de force of eloquence and erudition, Peter Linebaugh's new book brilliantly recovers the popular-democratic histories of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, tracking them back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea. Histories of capitalist modernity, he shows, are inseparable from the courageous creativity of the popular struggles whose defeats enabled them."--Geoff Eley, author of A Crooked Line: From Cultural History to the History of Society "Peter Linebaugh is the best, most creative, most original historian living today. Red Round Globe Hot Burning can be seen as a distillation of his life's work. This is a window on the six-hundred-year struggle over the commons that has a lot to say about our current times. Writing in prose that channels the poetry of William Blake in every sentence, this may be his most innovative book, yet."--Robin Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical ImaginationNoch keine Bewertungen vorhanden
