A History of Malaysia
During the past decade a number of historians have carried out fundamental work on various aspects of Malaysian history. These studies reflect the priorities of a new generation of scholars, both Malaysian and Western, whose primary interest is the development of the indigenous society. A history of Malaysia which incorporates recent research is long overdue and this book is intended to fill that gap. This new history of Malaysia traces events in the Malay world from early times to the twentieth century and shows how they have contributed to the formation of modern Malaysia. The complex cultural heritage of Malaysia is shown to be decisive in shaping its history. But equally important is Malaysia's strategic position on an international trade route linking China, India, and the West. The changing world trade has been a determining factor in the growth and direction of Malaysia's political and social institutions. In this book, basic new research data on the pre-1800 period gathered not only from European archives but also from an extensive study of indigenous manuscripts and legends are incorporated with a useful synthesis of better known secondary materials. It is therefore both an introductory textbook on Malaysian history and an original contribution to the literature on Malaysia.

The Soviet World of American Communism

The Full-Knowing Reader; Allusion and the Power of the Reader in the Western Literary Tradition
Literary allusions abound in Western literature, and those who study them tend to focus on the author's intentions to demonstrate erudition, embellish meaning, or exert control over tradition. In this original and illuminating book -- the first fullscale consideration of literary allusion in any language -- Joseph Pucci contends that the key to grasping the meaning of an allusive text is in the hands of the 'full-knowing' reader. Pucci shows how allusion authorizes the desires of such a reader -- one who is active, engaged, and historically sensitive -- at the expense of the author. He considers allusiveness in an array of ancient, medieval, and modern texts by authors as diverse as Homer, Virgil, Catullus, Augustine, Abelard, Dante, Goethe, Baudelaire, and Pound. Pucci begins with a discussion of modern and contemporary debates about allusion's function; offers a fresh definition of allusion that emphasizes readerly desire and the manifold meanings occasioned in allusion's best function; and considers ancient and medieval evidence of readerly power. Although Greeks and Romans described allusion in the context of a powerful reader, Pucci finds that allusion became a legitimated mode of literary discourse only after early Christian readers became meaning-makers, empowered to make sense of dissonant passages of Scripture. In a concluding chapter the author contemplates hypertext and allusion in other media. 'Pucci's prose style is admirably readable, lucid, and engaging, with enough surprises to keep even an empowered reader enthralled. I think this opus significant enough to be in every Library'. -- Daryl Hine, editor of Ovid's Heroines: A Verse Translation of the 'Heroides'
A Thread of Years
A distinguished historian presents a series of fictionalized vignettes of daily life as experienced by ordinary individuals in the United States, each in a year from 1901 to 1969, and each followed by a short dialogue in which the author argues with an interlocutor (who may or may not be himself) over why he has chosen to develop a given scenario in that particular year and what its significance might be.
