First published in 1846, Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novella The Double is a classic doppelganger story and the second major work published by the author. It is the story of Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin, a government clerk who believes that a fellow clerk has taken over his identity and is determined to bring about his ruin. Considered the most Gogolesque of Dostoyevsky's works, the novella brilliantly depicts Golyadkin's descent into madness in a way that is hauntingly poetic. The Double illustrates Dostoyevsky's uncanny ability at capturing the complexity of human emotion.

Perhaps the greatest blind spot of Western civilization has been its persistent inability to see other civilizations from their own point of view; to put ourselves in their shoes, as it were. The colonial record, in particular, is one of viewing the Other as inferior, and in need of Westernization—a perspective that has brought death, and untold misery, to millions. Franz Boas, known as the “father of American anthropology,” believed that anthropological research might be able to correct this distorted perspective, and that, in his words, we might learn “to tolerate to a greater ...

Karine Varley's book Vichy's Double Bind: French Collaboration between Hitler and Mussolini during the Second World War (Cambridge UP, 2023) advances a significant new interpretation of French collaboration during the Second World War. Arguing that the path to collaboration involved not merely Nazi Germany but Fascist Italy, it suggests that the Vichy French government was caught in a double bind. On the one hand, many of the threats to France's territory, colonial empire and power came from Rome as well as Berlin. On the other, Vichy was caught between the irreconcilable yet inescapable ...
