‎, Stichting Kunstboek 2013, 2013 Hardcover, 64 pagina's, Nederlands, 245 x 175 mm, wetenschap voor kinderen EN hun ouders, . ISBN 9789058564443.‎

‎Hoe ver we kinderen ook proberen te houden van verdriet, de meesten ontkomen niet aan het nemen van afscheid. Afscheid van iets (een knuffel, een school, een vakantieplek,...) maar ook van iemand (een gestorven huisdier, een vriendje dat verhuist, een zieke oma,...). Het kind zit op dat moment met ontzettend veel vragen die vaak onbeantwoord blijven. Jaklien Eyckerman heeft al 15 jaar ervaring als rouwtherapeute bij kinderen en jongeren die geconfronteerd werden met een schokkende gebeurtenis of verlies. Zo maakte ze deel uit van het team dat de nabestaanden van de busramp in Zwitserland opving. Ze sprokkelde het afgelopen jaar 100 vragen bijeen die men haar tijdens de klas- of individuele sessies stelde en gaf er in dit boek een troostvol maar duidelijk antwoord op. 100 Kindervragen: Afscheid en Verlies is een handboek waar ouders kunnen naar grijpen bij moeilijke momenten. Ook voor begeleiders en leerkrachten kan het een werkinstrument zijn bij het omgaan met klassituaties of pakkende nieuwsberichten.‎

‎Nicholas Trevet's Commentary on the Psalms (1317 - c. 1321): A Publishing History‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 389 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:16 col., 1 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503602103.‎

‎Summary How did medieval authors publish their works in the age before print? This study seeks to achieve new insights into the publishing strategies of medieval authors by focusing on Nicholas Trevet, an English Dominican friar and Oxford master. Shortly after 1317, Trevet was commissioned by his provincial prior to write a literal commentary on the Psalter. He chose as his reference version the less commonly used Latin translation by Jerome from the Hebrew, and delivered his work before 1321/22. The first book-length examination of Trevet's commentary, this detailed study traces the ways in which the work was circulated by the author and his proxies. Through a combined analysis of codicological, textual, and historical features of the nine extant fourteenth-century manuscripts, this study identifies contemporary efforts to make Trevet's work available to readers within and without the Dominican Order, in England and on the Continent. Even during the author's lifetime the commentary was copied in Paris and reached readers in Avignon and likely in Naples. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Chapter 1.

‎Literacy in Medieval and Early Modern Vilnius. Forms of Writing and Rhetorical Spaces in the City‎

‎Summary Late medieval and early modern cities in Europe could not exist without the use of the written word. Based on a case study of Vilnius ?the capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the fourteenth -eighteenth centuries ?this book shows how rhetoric influenced all the spheres of urban literacy: the rules of writing, rhetorical genres and their functions, and the social practices of producing, preserving, and disseminating texts. Vilnius was a multi-ethnic, multi-religious, and multi-scriptural city, and its literary culture was particularly rich. What was the legal basis of the city? Who were the professionals of the written word? What was the role of schools and books in the literary culture of the city? How did women participate in Vilnius's textuality? Which rhetorical genres were used? This study is based on research into the different types of texts used in Vilnius: contracts; last wills; sermons; municipal, state, and church records; primers; shopping lists; poetry; manuals; and letters, in Polish, Latin, Ruthenian, Lithuanian, Yiddish, and other languages written or printed in five alphabets. The rhetorical organization of Vilnius can serve as a model for examining other towns of the time. It also shows the complexity of the use of script in the multi-ethnic urban communities of North-Eastern Europe.

Il serait difficile de trouver un ancien Auteur, plus maltraité par le temps et par l'ignorance des Copistes que l'était le texte grec d'Iamblique, dans cette première édition : et l'on peut dire que la traduction latine y représentait fort fidèlement toute la corruption de l'Original. Personne jusqu'ici ne s'étant mis en peine de restituer à ce même texte sa premiere pureté, M. Kuster s'est chargé de ce travail; auquel il devait d'autant mieux réussir, que versé dans la lecture des Anciens, et appliqué depuis longtemps à la recherche et à la confrontation des meilleurs manuscrits" (Journal des savants, 10 octobre 1707).

‎When elephants come to town; A visual Anthology‎

‎, Cannibal/Hannibal Publishers 2020, 2020 Hardcover, 176 pages; English, 218 x 172 mm, with illustrations, Fine copy. NEW !. ISBN 9789463887519.‎

‎Through this extraordinary selection of photographs and accompanying text,we follow elephants on their journey from Ancient Rome to Coney Island and beyond. Across battlefields and city bridges, in railway cars and circus rings, adored, applauded and at times brutally mistreated, elephants have truly come to town.' - James Attlee When Elephants Come to Town: A Visual Anthology is a visual celebration of man's timeless fascination with the world's largest land animal through the medium of photography. The joy and excitement elephants arouse when they make an appearance in our lives is brought to life through a combination of iconic photographs by, amongst others, Garry Winogrand and unattributed, archival material. Rather than a series of contemporary nature photographs, the book is a collection of exceptional images from around the world of elephants in captivity, dating from Victorian times to the height of circus culture in the mid-20th century, many of them taken by anonymous photographers. Elephants parade through the streets and perform tricks in circuses and shows, their riders ranging from royalty to children, from showgirls to soldiers. In times of war they assist with logistics, shifting heavy loads, ploughing fields and hauling vehicles; in peacetime they add a touch of glamour and exoticism to locations as varied as casinos, hospital courtyards and amusement parks, and are in turn transformed into elephant-shaped buildings, mechanised automatons or balloons. In the essay that accompanies the photographs, acclaimed British author James Attlee describes the broader context of that relationship through the ages. In doing so, he doesn't shy away from describing the abuse and poor living conditions captive elephants have had to endure; at the same time he evokes the depth of understanding that can exist between man and animal, often in the words of those who have experienced it first-hand. Intensely nostalgic, often poignant and always fascinating, these images capture the complexity of one of the planet's most enduring inter-species relationships.‎

‎Sexuality and Gender in Early Modern Europe : Institutions, Texts, Images‎

‎, Cambridge University Press 1993, 1993 Paperback, 345 pages, English, 230 x 150 mm, text and some illustrations in b/w, book in fine order,. ISBN 9780521446051.‎

‎This exploration of sexuality and gender in Renaissance art and literature starts from an assumption that would have seemed unthinkable a generation ago: that the 'natural' phenomena of sex, gender and subjectivity are constructed rather than essentially biological or fixed. The essays rise to the challenge of producing a new post-Foucaultian history of gender and sexuality. All of them have been influenced by feminism, and several deal with women not just as objects of representation, but as subjects and authors in their own right. Among the historical issues examined are the production and suppression of women's voices, the relation between illicit sexuality and social order, the ambiguity of beauty, lesbian erotics, birth-imagery and the birthing ritual, the class status of women, the 'femininity' of masculine dress, and the sexual politics of courtesy.‎

‎Office of the Holy Trinity at Saint Martial de Limoges during the Eleventh Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, lxxiv + 131 pages, Size:210 x 297 mm, Illustrations:16 tables b/w., 68 musical examples, Languages: English, Latin. ISBN 9782503574561.‎

‎Summary The Holy Trinity forms a cornerstone of Christian belief, and references to it abound in the liturgy. Every Psalm ends with the invocation of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost in the Doxology supplied as the final verse. But around the turn of the tenth century, clerics decided to devote the first Sunday after Pentecost to the veneration of the Trinity. They created a new liturgy for the day, and evidence suggests that Stephen, Bishop of Li ge (? 920) revised an earlier form of the Office into the version that saw wide dissemination in the Latin West from the end of the tenth century. The abbey of Saint Martial in Limoges exhibited considerable enthusiasm for the feast and its Office beginning in the early eleventh century. Its scriptorium prepared no fewer than five copies of the Office, including four fully neumed versions between ca. 1010 and 1050, including the earliest extant transcribable copy with music in the hand of Ad mar de Chabannes, musician, scribe, homilist and historian. This edition presents a critical text of the Office as it was practised at Saint Martial during the first half of the eleventh century, beginning with Ad mar's version, but also considering the other witnesses from the abbey. It includes full critical and explanatory commentary with an Introduction that discusses the role of Stephen of Li ge in the authorship of the Office, the witnesses from Saint Martial and their relationship to other early witnesses of the Office, and its musical and literary style. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction with discussion of the contribution of Bishop Stephen of Li ge to the authorship of the Office, the witnesses, liturgical considerations, editorial principles and the musical styles of the melodies as transmitted at Saint Martial. The edition itself, with comprehensive commentary. Appendix with liturgical lections from Matins. Indices.‎

‎Vigilemus et Oremus'. The Theological Significance of 'Keeping Vigil' in Rome from the Fourth to the Eighth Centuries‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 411 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:94 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503590882.‎

‎Summary Christians have observed vigils in both East and West from earliest times. In the broad liturgical tradition of Christianity, the idea of keeping vigil appears to manifest the Church's eschatological nature. Documentary evidence from the earliest centuries reveals that some Christians kept a night watch at the graves of martyrs and other heroes of the faith as to anticipate that dawn when the rising Sun of Justice would return in fulfilment of his promise. Eventually, vigils appear not just for Easter, Pentecost and saints' days, but also for Christmas, the dedication of a church building, and on Saturday evening of the uniquely Roman quarterly Ember Weeks. Liturgical sources of the sixth, seventh, and eighth centuries reveal that such practices became relatively standardized with the assignment of specific Mass texts and scriptural readings, yet we know very little about the precise elements which comprised a vigil liturgy and of their theological significance. At the same time these vigils were so important that they attracted to themselves the celebration of major sacramental liturgies during them. Hence, the Paschal Vigil, which existed for centuries as a vigil liturgy of scriptural readings and prayers gradually became the setting for the annual baptismal celebration. This book examines the nature of Roman vigil liturgies in the early centuries of Christianity to unravel the most primitive structure of keeping vigil and to provide a better understanding of the Paschal Vigil, which Augustine of Hippo affirms as the 'mother of all vigils.'‎
