‎Sedition. The Spread of Controversial Literature and Ideas in France and Scotland, c. 1550-1610‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 324 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:6 b/w, 1 col., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503589909.‎

‎Summary This interdisciplinary collection examines the notion of sedition in the period of the French Wars of Religion (1560-1600) and focuses not only on France itself, but also on Scotland during the reign of the French-born Mary Queen of Scots. Composed of eleven chapters written by an international team of experts, this volume concentrates on the political aspects of sedition rather than religious heresy, and covers writings and publications in a wide range of fields: politics, history, law, literature, and gender. A complementary feature of this collection is the spectrum of writings studied; they include edicts and treatises, pamphlets, broadsides, legal documents, dialogues, and satirical prose and poetry. Several chapters also address visual representations of sedition. An Introduction and a Conclusion provide synthetic analyses of the material studied in the individual chapters. This is a collection which will appeal to readers with interests in the history of political ideas and thought, the comparative study of monarchical government, and concepts of tyranny and resistance, discord, rebellion, and revolt.

‎John of Garland's De triumphis Ecclesie. A new critical edition with introduction and translation‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 417 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:10 col., Languages: English, Latin. ISBN 9782503585116.‎

‎Summary This is the first translation in any language of John of Garland's poem about the historical events of his lifetime (c. 1195- c. 1258), together with revised Latin text, introduction and notes. This work gives a vivid picture of Anglo-French relations, of studies in Toulouse after the Albigensian Crusade, and of the need for faith following Louis' catastrophic defeat in the Seventh Crusade. John gives us insights into his own life, and a stream of stories, holy and profane. The translation and notes bring to life for a wide range of medievalists this eye-witness account by an Englishman in France of major events of the age, especially 1242-52. They make clear John's debts to classical authors and to contemporaries, especially Alan of Lille and Matthew Paris. Through re-ordering the lines, this edition now generates clarity from the single manuscript. It also offers fresh insights and a new perspective on John of Garland himself.

‎Jongkind (1819-1891) aimait repr senter canaux et moulins de sa patrie, la Hollande, dans des sc nes d'hiver o voluent dies patineurs, ainsi que les ports. En France, son pays d'adoption, il trouva son inspiration le long des quais de Seine, dans les rues de Paris et sur la c te normande. Le peintre, qui manifesta un merveilleux talent d'aquarelliste, de dessinateur, et de graveur, acheva son existence pr s de Grenoble, La C te Saint-Andr . Si les N erlandais sont sensibles la tradition du paysage hollandais laquelle se rattache Jongkind, les Fran ais ont retenu tr s t t ce dernier comme un des leurs. Jongkind en vint tre consid r comme appartenant leur lign e, selon une filiation reconnue par Signac : " Il faut donc placer ce r novateur du paysage moderne entre Corot et Monet, en t te de ces autres pr curseurs de l'Impressionnisme : Boudin, Cals et L pine. Et, comme il le souhaitait, comme il l'indiquait en se proclamant, dans les livrets du Salon, l ve d'Isabey [...], il doit tre class parmi les ma tres de l'Ecole fran aise. "‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 536 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888443137.‎

‎Summary The Medieval Clergy gives voice to the so-called secular clergy in the Central Middle Ages - a group that included priests, bishops, deacons, and canons, whose primary responsibilities included ministering to laypeople. These clerics administered the sacraments, and their churches sheltered the poor, housed the relics of the saints, and offered places of protection and community. The documents collected here, most appearing for the first time in English, allow readers to explore the richness of the lives of these clergy: the ideals they strove to emulate, the complexity of their lived experiences, and the multifaceted roles they played - pastoral, sacramental, familial, social, educational, liturgical, memorial, military, economic, legal, and civic.

‎* Een boeiend overzicht van het fenomeen ?UFO? boven Belgi * Met een voorwoord van generaal-majoor Wilfried De Brouwer Professor John van Waterschoot raakte al in de jaren vijftig in de ban van het fenomeen ?UFO?. Hij verzamelde getuigenissen en legde een archief van publicaties aan. Aanvankelijk met veel scepticisme... Hij brengt een grondig gedocumenteerd en boeiend overzicht van het fenomeen ?UFO? boven Belgi . Hij besteedt onder meer ruime aandacht aan de ronduit spectaculaire waarnemingen in de jaren 1989 en 1990. John van Waterschoot gaat ook in op de wereldwijde waarnemingen, op de betekenis van getuigenissen, de rol van Allen Hynek, de mogelijke verklaringen... Hij pleit ten slotte onverholen voor meer politieke openheid en een ernstige wetenschappelijke aanpak.‎

‎Dit boek beschrijft de carri re van de Belgische fotograaf John Vink, die in 1985 begon bij Lib ration. Zijn persoonlijke project Water in de Sahel won in 1986 de Eugene Smith-prijs en benadrukte zijn toewijding om de menselijke ervaring in moeilijke omstandigheden vast te leggen. Als medeoprichter van Agence VU documenteerde Vink wereldwijd vluchtelingenkampen. Dat liet hem toe om in 1997 volwaardig lid te worden bij Magnum Photos, wat hij zou blijven tot en met 2017. Zijn serie Peuples d?En Haut toont de veerkrachten culturele identiteit van berggemeenschappen, zoals de Mam in Guatemala en de Hmong in Laos. Na jaren van reizen vestigde Vink zich in 2000 in Cambodja, wat hem in staat stelde om zich dieper in een cultuur te verdiepen. Nu hij in Brussel woont, blijft hij inspireren met zijn krachtige visuele verhalen die thema?s zoals identiteit en menselijkheid onderzoeken. Met een tekstbijdrage van Rik Van Puymbroeck. Uitgegeven ter gelegenheid van de retrospectieve tentoonstelling van John Vink in het Mus e de la Photographie in Charleroi van 24 mei tot 21 september 2025.‎

‎ATELIERS OF EUROPE : An atlas of decorative arts workshops‎

‎, Prestel Publishing, 2023 HB, 240 x 280 mm, 288 p, 212 Coloured illustr., dustjacket, NEW , . ISBN 9783791388175.‎

‎This visually stunning love letter to the art of craft takes readers inside Europe's most illustrious-and in many cases endangered-decorative arts workshops to profile how artisans continue to maintain the highest centuries-old standards of workmanship and creativity. Beginning in the Renaissance, ateliers were established as places for European artists to work and teach their crafts. Centuries later most of these spaces have disappeared, but a select few continue to produce some of the world's most celebrated and sought-after objects in the areas of crystal, ceramics, wrought iron, fabric, bookbinding, mosaic, wood paneling, and more. John Whelan and Oskar Proctor traveled throughout Europe to document these important spaces, both to celebrate them and to preserve their disappearing ideals. Ranging from the well- known to the obscure, this volume takes readers inside dozens of ateliers from Austria, England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland. Sumptuous double-page spreads feature alluring photography, and fascinating background texts tell their stories. By shining a light on their collective value as well as their individual expertise, this book offers both a historic evaluation of how ateliers have been shaped by modern forces-and also a clarion call for their preservation.‎
