Jacket edges lightly bumped. 2003 Hard Cover. 298 pp. "The childhood world of Hugo Hamilton is a confused place: His father a brutal Irish nationalist demands his children speak Gaelic at home whilst his mother a softly spoken German emigrant who escaped Nazi Germany at the beginning of the war encourages them to speak German. All Hugo wants to do is speak English. English is after all what the other children in Dublin speak. English is what they use when they hunt down Hugo or 'Eichmann' as they dub him in the streets of Dublin and English is what they use when they bring him to trial and execute him at a mock seaside court. Out of this fear and confusion Hugo tries to build a balanced view of the world to turn the twisted logic of what he is told into truth. It is a journey that ends in liberation but not before this little boy has uncovered the dark and long-buried secrets that lie at the bottom of his parents' wardrobe.In one of the finest books to have emerged from Ireland since Patrick McCabe's THE BUTCHER BOY and Seamus Deane's READING IN THE DARK acclaimed novelist Hugo Hamilton has finally written his own story.

Butler points out in his introduction to this reprint: "The early English translations of the works of Hugo Grotius on the law of nations are not the product of legal scholars or legal scholarship. We are indebted primarily to theologians for their appearance either because Grotius figured prominently in theological discourse at various periods after his death or because his legal writings were espoused by dons dedicated to the cause of peace who considered the Grotian contributions to the law of nations to be a constructive step in the direction of a more peaceful world community."-- William E.

This groundbreaking work was commissioned by the Dutch East India Company to dispute the monopoly on East Indian trade routes claimed by the Portuguese. It argues that the seas are international territory open to all nations thus rejecting the idea that any area of the seas could belong to a country. An instant classic it received a great deal of attention when it was published in 1609. Perhaps the most important reply is John Selden's Mare Clausum 1635 which defends British claims to sovereignty over the coastal waters of the British Isles.
