24 History & Biographies New The Palestine Nakba Decolonising History, Narrating the Subaltern, Reclaiming Memory Nur Masalha 2012 marks the 64 th anniversary of the Nakba-the most traumatic catastrophe that ever befell Palestinians. This book explores new ways of remembering and commemorating the Nakba. In the context of Palestinian oral history, it explores ‘social history from below’, subaltern narratives of memory and the formation of collective identity. Masalha argues that to write more truthfully about the Nakba is not just to practice a professional historiography but an ethical imperative. The struggles of ordinary refugees to recover and publicly assert the truth about the Nakba is a vital way of protecting their rights and keeping the hope for peace with justice alive. This book is essential for understanding the place of the Palestine Nakba at the heart of the Israel-Palestine conflict and the vital role of memory in narratives of narratives of truth and reconciliation. Publisher: Zed Books 2012: 288 pp ISBN: 9781848139701: RM110.00 / S$47.85 New Palestinian Women Narrative Histories and Gendered Memory Fatma Kassem Palestinian Women is the first book to examine and document the experiences and historical narrative of ordinary Palestinian women who witnessed the events of 1948 and became involuntary citizens of the State of Israel. Known in Palestinian discourse as the Nakba, or the Catastrophe, these events of sixty years ago still powerfully resonate in contemporary Palestinian-Jewish relations. Told in their own words, the women’s experiences serve as a window for examining the complex intersections of gender, nationalism and citizenship amidst ongoing violent political conflict. In narrating these stories, Palastinian Women argues that the realm of memory is a site of commemoration and resistance. Publisher: Zed Books 2011: 264 pp ISBN: 9781848134249: RM95.00 / S$41.30 New Sun Yat-Sen Nanyang and the 1911 Revolution Edited by Lee Lai To and Lee Hock Guan Tel: +603 - 7957 8342/8343 Fax: +603 - 7954 9202 E-mail: sird@streamyx.com Website: www.gerakbudaya.com & bookshop.gbgerakbudaya.com Catalogue 2012 In view of the 100 th anniversary of the 1911 Revolution and Sun Yat-Sen’s relations with the Nanyang communities, the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies and the Chinese Heritage Centre came together to host a two-day bilingual conference on the three-way relationships between Sun Yat-Sen, Nanyang and the 1911 Revolution in October 2010 in Singapore. This volume is a collection of papers in English presented at the conference. While there are extensive research and voluminous publications on Sun Yat-Sen and the 1911 Revolution, it was felt that less had been done on the Southeast Asian connections. Thus this volume offers not only some original and at times provocative analysis on Sun Yat-Sen and the 1911 Revolution but also contributions from selected Southeast Asian countries. Publisher: ISEAS & CHC 2011: 317 pp ISBN: 9789814345453: RM100.00 / S$39.90 New Revolutionary Spirit Jose Rizal in Southeast Asia John Nery Like his great contemporaries Sun Yat-sen and Mohandas K. Gandhi, the Philippine patriot and polymath Jose Rizal (1861-1896) helped write the history of freedom in Asia. His two subversive novels and an immortal last poem helped inspire the first nationalist revolution on the continent and led to the founding of the first Asian republic. But what was Rizal's impact on the nationalist awakening in Southeast Asia? This book argues that by infusing a revolutionary spirit into the struggle to create a Philippine nation in the late 19th century, Rizal ended up helping invigorate Indonesian nationalism and Malaysian scholarship, regional political discourse and world literature, in the 20th - and remains must reading in the 21st.

Robertson It follows the desperate rear-guard action fought by the German cruiser Emden, sinking a score of Allied merchant ships over many weeks and culminating in the Battle of Penang. There, Emden destroyed two Allied warships, Zhemtchug and Mousquet, aided by the lax security in Penang harbour. The British allowed the blame to pass onto the Russians and the French.

Against this background, the rising power of the mighty Japanese navy and their seizure of Tsing Tao set the scene for the Sino- Japanese war two decades later.
