| Summary/Abstract |
This article provides a prolegomena to a discussion of what Michel Foucault meant by 'political spirituality' and 'the courage of truth (parrhesia)', terms which preoccupied his last lectures at the Collège de France and through which he continued to pursue his lifelong concern with the politics of truth and the history of the present. The article approaches these issues through the fate of the three strategic figures - God, Man and Life - that have traditionally problematised western rules of truth and truths of rule. It then proceeds to explore the living death, or afterlife, of Man and Life, which calls for a new courage of truth, and to which 'political spirituality' has been one response.

| Summary/Abstract |
The surviving documentation on Azimullah Khan is unreliable and fragmentary, but a survey suggests that his importance as a leader in the revolt of 1857 may have been exaggerated. His true distinction was as a consultant to the Nana Sahib. A unique personal letter from Azimullah, dating from the years that he spent in England and published here for the first time, reveals him at work behind the scenes on his master's behalf.

| Summary/Abstract |
In October 1831 Muhammad Ali Pasha's army under the command of his son, Ibrahim Pasha, attacked Greater Syria, where he faced little resistance. By May 1832 Muhammad Ali and the Sultan signed the K¨tahya peace treaty, and the region of Greater Syria became formally part of Muhammad Ali's domains, in which he decided to implement several reforms. One of these reforms was disarmament and conscription. As a result several revolts erupted in the region of Greater Syria; the two most important revolts were those of the Nusayris and the Druze, two heterodox religious minorities. The Nusayri revolt erupted in September 1834 and lasted for nine months until the rebels were fiercely subdued, disarmed and conscripted. After subduing the Nusayris in October 1835, the Egyptians conscripted the Druze of Mount Lebanon. Although the Druze resisted the orders, they lacked leadership and thus were easily disarmed and conscripted. The main revolt of the Druze was in November 1837 in the Hawran region, where the Druze put up a fierce fight against the Egyptians. Even though the Druze were subdued after almost nine months, they obtained a lenient agreement in which they were released from conscription and only partly disarmed.

| Summary/Abstract |
Posited as ‘post-national’ and articulated as ‘relational,’ recent historiography of the mandate period has had a long-term effect on how we read (and have been warned not to read) nationalism and resistance in Palestine. Beyond a critical survey of a select part of this recent historical literature, this essay shows how the question of nationalism has been framed in only one way and towards one end. Using this critical reading of the historical literature, this essay further attempts to open up space for a means of understanding Indigenous nationalism (and indigenous resistance) outside of the confined space of this particular treatment of nation-state nationalism. I suggest we move towards exploring an indigenous epistemological understanding of ‘history as story telling’ outside of these Zionist ontological constraints.

| Summary/Abstract |
After the collapse of the Mysore Sultanate in 1799, the British East India Company attempted to consolidate its authority in southern India by rolling back the prerogatives of warrior elites. This in turn generated revolts by disgruntled chieftains eager to retain their privileges. Conventional interpretations have viewed the relationship between independent warrior bands and the colonial state as mutually exclusive and irreconcilable. However a closer examination of the sources reveals that the emerging colonial state maintained control and pacified resistance by engaging in mutually beneficial alliances with loyalist warrior groups.
