stories of people who were willing to bear the consequences when theit perception of reality changed
What is the real story? Many people no longer recognize themselves in what is being reported by governments and media, or doubt whether they are being told the whole truth. And what happened to dialogue? Why has widespread censorship by mainstream media and social media become commonplace? It seems as if only one truth is allowed, namely the government’s.

David Pinho Barros The clear line in comics and cinema
a transmedial approach
The "clear line", a term coined in 1977 by Dutch essayist and artist Joost Swarte, has become shorthand in the field of comics studies for the style originally developed by Hergé and the École de Bruxelles. It refers to certain storytelling strategies that generate a deceptively simple, lucid and hygienic narration: in Philippe Marion's words, it is a style "made out of light, fluidity and limpid clarity". By cataloguing and critically analysing clear line comics from historical and theoretical...

Jan Van Caneghem The book that helps you become the epic designer of our tomorrows
... and that everyone needs to read
The book that helps you become the EPIC designer of our tomorrows wants to convince you about the need for creative thinking and, in an applied form, design thinking . We investigate the nature of creative thinking and how that is undervalued in education and corporate life.

With the EPIC design maturity model , we help to emphasise that empathy,...

Justus Lipsius Monita et exempla politica
In 17th-century intellectual life, the ideas of the Renaissance humanist Justus Lipsius (1547-1606) were omnipresent. The publication of his Politica in 1589 had made Lipsius' name as an original and controversial political thinker. The sequel, the Monita et exempla politica (Political admonitions and examples), published in 1605, was meant as an illustration of Lipsius political thought as expounded in the Politica. Its aim was to offer concrete models of behavior for rulers against the background...

Going beyond aspects of style and liturgy, and transcending a focus on particular architects or regions, this volume considers church building at the crossroads of pastoral theology, religious sociology, and urban planning.

neocolonialism, investment, and the new scramble

Who Owns Africa? addresses the role of foreign actors in Africa and their competing interests in exploiting the resources of Africa and its people. An interdisciplinary team...
