This magnificent large format edition is a 'best of' of photographer Angelo Turconi. Congo, Culture and Traditions compiles his most beautiful pictures and unique footage of his beloved Congo shot over a period of over half a century. This book is a precious photo archive, but at the same time a tribute to the vitality and resilience of the Congolese people. Included are rare images of rituals and traditions that now definitely belong in the past. A giant country like Congo with its huge ethnic diversity will always remain an inexhaustible source of wonder and astonishment. In five chapters, Congo-expert Turconi dwells on the country's nature, the daily life, its people, Congo's art and culture and the country's economy. Eminent ethnologist and art historian Francois Neyt wrote the introductory texts to the chapters, while Prof. Dr. Isidore Ndaywel and Nziem elucidates on the selected photographs. SELLING POINT: A giant country like Congo with its huge ethnic diversity will always remain an inexhaustible source of wonder and astonishment.

Située en plein cœur du continent africain, à cheval sur l'équateur, le Congo-Kinshasa, officiellement République démocratique du Congo (RDC), est un pays immense particulièrement gâté par la nature. Son sous-sol est l'un des plus riches au monde ; la fertilité de ses terres et la variété de ses climats favorisent l'agriculture. Pourtant, ce " géant aux pieds d'argile " abrite, paradoxalement, une population en majeure partie démunie. La RDC est un pays d'une extrême complexité qui tient à son histoire tumultueuse, faite de guerres, de rébellions, de récessions, d'exécutions, de faillites économiques... Dès le XVe siècle, les Portugais ont établi des liens avec le royaume du Congo pour négocier or, ivoire, cuivre et esclaves. Ce n'est qu'au XIXe siècle que la Belgique, sous la houlette du roi Léopold II, l'emporte sur les autres nations européennes lancées dans la course coloniale et établit le Congo belge. La difficile marche vers l'indépendance est également émaillée de révoltes et de violences. L'histoire de la Première République est écrite en lettres de sang. Notamment le sang de Patrice Lumumba, le Premier ministre assassiné avec la bénédiction de la Belgique en 1961. La Deuxième République mise en place par Mobutu en 1965 est une dictature qui conduit le Zaïre à la faillite. Le 17 mai 1997, Mobutu est renversé par Laurent Désiré Kabila. Le Zaïre redevient Congo. Kabila connaît une fin tragique en janvier 2001. Son fils, Joseph Kabila, lui succède. La RDC bascule à nouveau dans la guerre en août 1998. Une guerre qui appose, sur le sol congolais, les troupes gouvernementales épaulées par des forces étrangères à des mouvements rebelles soutenus par des armées des pays voisins. Pourtant, le Congo-Kinshasa est attachant par sa richesse culturelle (musique, statuaire, peinture moderne...), par la diversité de ses peuples, l'immensité de ses paysages d'eau, de forêts et de montagne.

Under the leadership of William F. P. Burton and James Salter, the Congo Evangelistic Mission (CEM) grew from a simple faith movement founded in 1915 into one of the most successful classical Pentecostal missions in Africa, today boasting more than one million members in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Drawing on artifacts, images, documents, and interviews, David Maxwell examines the roles of missionaries and their African collaborators—the Luba-speaking peoples of southeast Katanga—in producing knowledge about Africa. Through the careful reconstruction of knowledge pathways, Maxwell brings into focus the role of Africans in shaping texts, collections, and images as well as in challenging and adapting Western-imported presuppositions and prejudices. Ultimately, Maxwell illustrates the mutually constitutive nature of discourses of identity in colonial Africa and reveals not only how the Luba shaped missionary research but also how these coproducers of knowledge constructed and critiqued custom and convened new ethnic communities. Making a significant intervention in the study of both the history of African Christianity and the cultural transformations effected by missionary encounters across the globe, Religious Entanglements excavates the subculture of African Pentecostalism, revealing its potentiality for radical sociocultural change.

When the author embarked on her study, her aim was to approach former colonial officers with a view to analyzing processes of domination in the ex-Belgian Congo. However, after establishing a rapport with some of these officers, the author was soon forced to revise her initial assumptions, widely held in present-day Belgium: these officers were not the "baddies" she had expected to meet. Exploring the colonial experience through the respondents' memories resulted in a far more complex picture of the colonial situation than she had anticipated, again forcing her to question her original assumptions. This resulted not only in a more differentiated perspective on Belgian colonialist rule, but is also sensitized her as regards the question of anthropological understanding and of what constitutes historical fact. These two aspects of her work are reflected in this study that offers specific material on the way Belgian colonialism is remembered and reflects on its conditions of production, thus combining ethnographic analysis with a theoretical essay.

Seit bald dreieinhalb Jahrhunderten inspiriert Lafayettes La Princesse de Clèves (1678) immer wieder neue kritische Lesarten, aber auch kreative Variationen. Heute scheint dieser erste moderne französische Roman, der Anfang des 21. Jahrhunderts im Rahmen einer neuen Querelle auch zum Politikum wird, aktueller denn je: Davon zeugt das in diesem Band gebotene umfassende Panorama zeitgenössischer Re-Interpretationen zwischen Literatur, Film und politischem Diskurs. In Auseinandersetzung mit dem Werk einer Reihe bedeutender, hier zum Teil erstmals ausführlich vorgestellter Autorinnen und Filmkünstler der Gegenwart eröffnen sich vielfältige Perspektiven auf die Dynamik der produktiven Klassikerrezeption und den Status von Literatur im gesellschaftlichen Kontext.

The anthology consists of essays authored by scholars of different nationalities from diverse cultures, nations and primary languages. They cover Conrad’s presence across multiple media (fiction, films, comics, and graphic novels). The collection is unique because the contributors focused on Conrad’s presence in contemporary culture – a constantly changing field – rather than well-trodden paths. The exploration of Polish, French, Italian, Spanish, English and American works of art strengthens its originality. The artists discussed in connection with Conrad include Olga Tokarczuk, Stanisław Lem, Robert Silveberg, Loic Godart, Christian Bobin, Christian Perrissin, Tom Tirabosco, Eduardo Berti, J.M. Coetzee, Michelangelo Antonioni. Last but not least, the volume contains 20 stunning reproductions in full colour from films, graphic novels and comics.
