‎I Don't Belong Anywhere: Gy rgy Ligeti at 100‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 300 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:12 b/w, 8 col., 60 musical examples, Language: English. ISBN 9782503602400.‎

‎Summary 2023 marks the centenary of Ligeti's birth, an appropriate moment to take stock of the relevance this composer has in the contemporary world, to assess where he ?belongs? today and how our views of his ?uvre and our understanding of his position in musical and cultural history have evolved. What do Ligeti and his music have to say to us in our post-postmodernist age? Why do his works still fascinate us so much? This book offers new readings of core compositions such as Aventures , Lontano , Le Grand Macabre , the H lderlin Fantasies and Galamb borong . It also reassesses the context and reception of Ligeti's works, including the influence of Romanian music (not least in his childhood), musical life in Hungary between 1945 and 1956, the ways in which his thinking was influenced by his experience of different soundscapes, yet also the surprisingly widespread use of his music in film and TV (beyond the usual suspect). Finally it presents new sources discovered or made available only recently: letters exchanged between Ligeti and Aliute Mecys in 1972, the correspondence between the composer and his publisher Schott, and an extended BBC interview from 1997.

‎Corporate Splendour. A Typological, Iconographic and Social Approach to Civic Group Portraits in Brabant 1585-1800 ‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2014 Hardback, approx. 450 p., 150 b/w ill., 190 x 250 mm Languages: English . ISBN 9782503550374.‎

‎Civic group portraits, depicting trades and guilds, militias, magistrates, governors of charitable institutions and confraternities, were in the old duchy of Brabant during the Ancien Regime much better represented than is generally thought. Some hundred paintings are revealed, especially in the cities of Antwerp, Brussels, Leuven and Mechelen. For the first time, the book zooms in on this important subgenre of Flemish portraiture. The paintings present a wide variety of compositional types and integrated iconographic elements. Monumental life-size portraits coexist with small scale representations. At the same time, there is a clear differentiation in typology according to the city where they were produced. Along with the formal analysis, attention is paid to the material-technical genesis of these compositions, combining in some cases visual observation with scientific imagery and archival evidence. Also the question why patrons would order a group portrait, and how to interpret such ?corporate splendour?, is dealt with, making use of the richly collected contemporary documents, which permit to contextualize the portraits and, in some cases, reconstruct their original habitat. They thus shed light on a number of factors that were involved in the realization of Brabantine civic group portraits: the type of patrons and their socio-economic and political position; the immediate cause for ordering a group portrait; the artists called upon; the prices and terms of payment; and the destination ? (semi)public / private, sacral / secular ? of the paintings‎

More than a century after its construction, it remains one of the 100 tallest buildings in the United States. "The Woolworth Building has been called "The Cathedral of Commerce" - a monument to small things, yet is even more - it is the colossal and enduring gift to civilization of a true-born, patriotic American, Frank W. Woolworth, and it stands unique in the history of great buildings throughout the world in that it is without a mortgage or dollar of indeptedness. Mr. Woolworth paid for this gigantic structure from start to finish from his own resources ..." (text). Last page with a biography of Frank W. Woolworth (1852 - 1919).

‎Frans Floris Imagining a Northern Renaissance.‎

‎, Brill, 2018 Hardcover with dustjacket, xlix, 808 pp.; 391 color ills. 255 x 180 x 48 mm. Fine. ISBN 9789004307254.‎

‎Frans Floris de Vriendt radically transformed Netherlandish art. His monumental mythologies introduced a new appreciation for the heroic nude to the Low Countries and his religious art challenged standards of decorum. Born into a family of sculptors and architects, Floris refashioned his art through travel, first studying with the humanist painter Lambert Lombard in Liege and then continuing on to Italy. These experiences defined the hybridizing novelty of his art, forged by juxtaposing antique and modern, Italian and northern sources. This book maps Floris?s hybrid style onto shifting conceptions of cultural, religious, and political identity on the eve of the Dutch Revolt. It explores his collaborations and rivalries, engagement with artistic theory, hierarchical workshop, and revolutionary use of print.

‎Vlaanderen in 100 kaarten. ‎

‎, Davidsfonds, 2015 Gebonden, Hardcover 320 pagina's oblong; 30x26cm met prachtige illustraties in kleur. ISBN 9789059086371.‎

‎Kaarten vertellen verhalen. Naast de geografische informatie die ze bevatten, vertellen ze waarom, wanneer, voor wie en hoe ze zijn gemaakt. Kaarten zijn praktisch, maar ook kunstig, ze volgen een mode en zijn voorbeelden van technisch kunnen. Al die aspecten van de cartografische productie komen aan bod in deze selectie van 100 kaarten over Vlaanderen. 'Vlaanderen in 100 kaarten' schetst aan de hand van kaarten de evolutie van wat vandaag het Vlaamse gewest is. Met kaarten van de Nederlanden, Belgi , Frankrijk en Duitsland, van graafschappen en hertogdommen, departementen en provincies, stadsplannen. De oudste kaart is handgetekend en is meer dan 600 jaar oud, de recentste is virtueel en eeuwig jong. Naast belangrijke historische gebeurtenissen uit het Vlaamse verleden schenkt het boek bijzondere aandacht aan de hoogtepunten in de geschiedenis van de cartografie. Figuren als Abraham Ortelius en Gerard Mercator zijn overbekend, maar er zijn veel meer landgenoten die een plaats hebben verdiend in dit boeiende verhaal. Wouter Bracke is gewoon hoogleraar aan de ULB. Hij was hoofd van de afdeling Kaarten en Plans van de Koninklijke Bibliotheek van Belgi tot hij eind 2012 als directeur van de Academia Belgica naar Rome vertrok. In de Koninklijke Bibliotheek co rdineert hij wetenschappelijk onderzoek in de instelling, en in het bijzonder wetenschappelijke projecten over cartografie.‎
