Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - After writing 365: Positive Words for a Teenage Girl, based on the 'warm fuzzies' I received in my first year in high-school, other women told me, 'I need a book like this.' So I drew upon a diary I began writing when I was sixteen years old, adding many affirmations as the years went by. Every morning and night, I would read a page or two and sometimes ten or more. In the moments (days-weeks-months) that I did not read my diary of affirmations, I felt not quite as light, happy or confident. As soon as I returned to reading the pages, I felt stronger, happier, with the will to follow my dreams. Reading these pages morning and night, begins and ends my day in a positive frame of mind, helping me to stay strong, determined, focused on the good in me and the good that is around me. In my eyes every woman is beautiful, just like every girl is and as we grow into our own uniqueness, it's our inner self-worth that gives us sustaining happiness. That's what keeps us strong, motivated and good to others. Being Beautifully Strong is the inner beauty and strength that gets us what we want. It's so important to take care of ourselves first (and I'm not talking of ignoring the needs of others, like your children), but if we don't take care of ourselves, then how are we supposed to give to others, if we ourselves are empty I am worth the time and effort to take care of me and all those around me benefit from it, for when I feel good and can honestly smile at the world. the world generally smiles back. -from my heart to yours- A piece of my inner strength.B xxx.…

Verrassende, ongekende en zelfs vergeten objecten uit de rijke geschiedenis van Vlaanderen Tussen hemel en aarde, daar spelen de geschiedenissen in dit boek zich af. Al zijn die twee uitersten nooit in ?zuivere? vorm aanwezig. De hemel ontbreekt omdat de stuntelende mens overal een hand in heeft. Veel op het eerste gezicht aardse en prozaische aangelegenheden daarentegen, wijzen door hun religieuze inspiratie of aspiratie, soms ongewild, naar een andere of ?hogere? werkelijkheid. De bijdragen in dit boek illustreren de meest uiteenlopende wijzen waarop mannen, vrouwen en kinderen, en tal van organisaties in Vlaanderen beinvloed werden door, vormgegeven hebben aan en zich verzet hebben tegen religie sinds 1750 tot vandaag. Soms staat daarbij het individuele perspectief centraal, andere keren vormen de familie, een religieuze orde of congregatie, een maatschappelijke of politieke vereniging, of de kerk als instituut het uitgangspunt. Erg diverse domeinen van de samenleving komen aan bod. Dit boek plukt uit het omvangrijke, en zowel naar vorm als naar inhoud diverse erfgoed van KADOC, Documentatie- en Onderzoekscentrum voor Religie, Cultuur en Samenleving van de KU Leuven.

Paperback, 182 pages, 23.4 x15.6cm. 16 illustrations, black & white. ISBN 9789462704107. In 2022, the Belgian parliament made a landmark decision by approving the decriminalisation of sex work. This move positioned the small nation as the first country in Europe ? and the second globally ? to abandon the hypocrisy of tolerance. But this was not the first time paid sex in Belgium gained international notoriety. The medieval bathhouses and ?frows of Flanders? were well-known throughout Europe. In the nineteenth century, Belgium faced international outrage as the alleged epicentre of white slavery. Yet while Belgians were accused of forcing white women into prostitution, they were left alone when it came to the inclusion of any suspect woman in the prostitution registers of colonial Congo. Throughout the First and Second World Wars, both allied and German soldiers sought relief in Belgian brothels. The Business of Pleasure presents the compelling life stories of sex workers and their interactions with authorities, clients and pimps. Transcending stereotypes, this history of commercial sex offers a nuanced understanding of the difficulties and opportunities associated with paid sex for women, men and trans persons past and present. Elwin Hofman is a cultural historian and writer. He teaches at Utrecht University and has (co)authored several books on cultural history, including a history of homosexuality in Belgium. Magaly Rodríguez García is an authority on the history of international labour organisations and subaltern history. She is a professor at KU Leuven and collaborates with Belgian and foreign colleagues on projects regarding, inter alia, sex work and prostitution policy at the local, national and supranational levels. In the context of oral history projects, she became closely involved with advocacy groups for vulnerable persons such as sex workers and homeless people. Pieter Vanhees is a social historian and has researched the history of prostitution in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries at KU Leuven. 0 g.…

paperback, 164 p., English, . ISBN 9789058678836. With a contribution by John Braithwaite himself: 'Opportunities and dangers of capitalist criminology' Over the past decades, the Australian social scientist John Braithwaite (1951) has played a crucial role in the development of international criminology.

In this collection of essays a number of well-known academics reflect on the work of John Braithwaite. 0 g.…

Softcover, 250 pag. Illustrated. FINE. ISBN 9789462703704. The Belgian photonovel is the missing link in the amazing history of the photonovel, a comics-inspired form of visual narrative that combines elements from very different genres and media, ranging from literary melodrama, cinema, and of course comics. This monograph discloses the specific Belgian contribution to the genre, in close connection with the singularities of the Belgian women?s and general magazines where these photonovels appeared. If the photonovel is generally considered a typically French or Italian genre, this study demonstrates the importance of a different tradition, which appropriated the foreign models in a very original way. Belgian photonovels are distinct, not only because they tell other kinds of stories, but also because they interact with other types of magazines in ways that are very different from the mainstream forms of the genre in Italy and France. Finally, this lavishly illustrated study is also the first in scrutinizing the technical aspects of magazine printing techniques in the development of the photonovel. 0 g.…

paperback, 288 p., English. ISBN 9789058679604. Magritte and Literature examines some of the artist's major paintings whose titles were influenced by and related to works of literature. Baudelaire's The Flowers of Evil, Goethe's Elective Affinities, and Poe's The Domain of Arnheim are representative examples of Magritte's interarts dialog with literary figures. His strategy is to paint visible thought, and this reverse ekphrasis, the opposite of a rhetorical description of a painting, undermines the written text. When he succeeds, 0 g.…

Paperback, 300 pages, 50 Illustrated, full colour, 244 x 170 x mm, Language: English, .*NEW ISBN 9789462704282. Innovative exploration of the Brussels Baroque and the social dimensions of art production. In seventeenth-century Brussels, the careers of painters were shaped not only by their artistic talents but also by the communities to which they belonged. This book explores the intricate relationship between the social structures and artistic production of the 353 painters who became masters in the Brussels Guild of Painters, Goldbeaters, and Stained-Glass Makers between 1599 and 1706. This innovative study combines quantitative digital analysis with detailed qualitative case studies, offering a novel approach to the social history of art. By examining the various communities in which these artists operated, this book provides new insights into how early modern painters ? both in Brussels and beyond ? created their art, earned a living, and navigated the complexities of urban life. Painters and Communities in Seventeenth-Century Brussels also presents the first overview of the Brussels Baroque, with extensive biographical lists of the city?s master painters.

Paperback, 256 pagina's, 23x 17x 1.5 cm, afbeeldingen. NL.*nieuw. ISBN 9789462703223. Intieme kijk op de artistieke leefwereld van adellijke vrouwen in de 19de en het begin van de 20ste eeuw In de 19de eeuw ging een negatief imago aan de amateurkunsten kleven. Ze raakten geassocieerd met de vrijetijdsbesteding van vrouwen, met huiselijkheid en met lage kwaliteit. Adellijk en artistiek verruimt dit enge perspectief. Het toont hoe amateurkunsten voor vrouwen een krachtig instrument waren om de eigen identiteit vorm te geven, om een plaats te verwerven in een sociaal-cultureel netwerk en om tastbare herinneringen na te laten. Dit rijk geïllustreerde boek zoekt het gezelschap van adellijke amateurkunstenaressen op. Deze vrouwen borduurden in het salon, leerden schilderen in het damesatelier en stelden tentoon tijdens liefdadigheidsbazaars. Documenten, objecten en verhalen uit vooral privéarchieven en -verzamelingen bieden een diepgaande blik op hun artistieke activiteiten. Ze laten een wisselwerking zien tussen de schone en toegepaste kunsten, tussen individuele en gemeenschappelijke betrokkenheid en tussen traditionele verwachtingen en persoonlijke ambities. 0 g.…

Hardcover 224 pages, Size: 220 x 245 x mm, 150 illustrations full colour. ISBN 9789083201610. From its origins in medieval times to the present day, the Arenberg family has been one of Europe?s leading noble families. With origins in the German Eifel region, the Arenbergs became sovereign Princes and later Dukes in the Holy Roman Empire.
