'Deze biografie maakt korte metten met de vele clichés en vooroordelen waarmee Buysse zijn leven lang werd achtervolgd. Bovendien is het boek een verrassende combinatie van biografie en historiografie: 75 jaar Vlaamse en Europese cultuurgeschiedenis als achtergrond en context van een intrigerend schrijversleven in het grensgebied van de 19de en de 20ste eeuw. CYRIEL BUYSSE (1859-1932) was schrijver en fabrikant. Hij was de Vlaamse naturalist bij uitstek, een verteller par excellence, een pionier van de moderne roman in Vlaanderen. In zijn jonge jaren pendelde hij tussen Nevele en New York, later tussen Deurle en Den Haag. Met Maurice Maeterlinck, Louis Couperus en de schilder Emile Claus onderhield hij duurzame vriendschappen. Als vrijzinnig liberaal met socialistische sympathieën, maar ook als tegenstander van zowel Vlaams- als Franshaters botste hij met zowat alle taboes van zijn tijd. Het leven, niets dan het leven maakt korte metten met de vele clichés en vooroordelen waarmee Buysse zijn leven lang werd achtervolgd. Bovendien is het boek een verrassende combinatie van biografie en historiografie: 75 jaar Vlaamse en Europese cultuurgeschiedenis als achtergrond en context van een intrigerend schrijversleven in het grensgebied van de 19de en de 20ste eeuw. De biografie werd bekroond met de ABN AMRO Bank Prijs voor het Beste Non-Fictie Boek 2007 en de prijs van de provincie Oost-Vlaanderen voor essay en monografie 2007.'

Our continued use of the combustion engine car in the 21st century, despite many rational arguments against it, makes it more and more difficult to imagine that transport has a sustainable future. Offering a sweeping transatlantic perspective, this book explains the current obsession with automobiles by delving deep into the motives of early car users. It provides a synthesis of our knowledge about the emergence and persistence of the car, using a broad range of material including novels, poems, films, and songs to unearth the desires that shaped our present “car society.” Combining social, psychological, and structural explanations, the author concludes that the ability of cars to convey transcendental experience, especially for men, explains our attachment to the vehicle.

This volume brings together an international cast of scholars from a variety of fields to examine the racial and colonial aspects of the First World War, and show how issues of race and empire shaped its literature and culture. The global nature of the First World War is fast becoming the focus of intense enquiry. This book analyses European discourses about colonial participation and recovers the war experience of different racial, ethnic and national groups, including the Chinese, Vietnamese, Indians, Maori, West Africans and Jamaicans. It also investigates testimonial and literary writings, from war diaries and nursing memoirs to Irish, New Zealand and African American literature, and analyses processes of memory and commemoration in the former colonies and dominions. Drawing upon archival, literary and visual material, the book provides a compelling account of the conflict's reverberations in Europe and its empires and reclaims the multiracial dimensions of war memory.

Ik begin mijn boek niet met een introductie, maar laat het voor zichzelf spreken. De inhoud is als een genadige verlichting, die de alles-verlichtende Heilige Geest mijn ziel schonk in ogenblikken van diepe verzonkenheid en zelfonderzoek, vooral in gebed. Als ik er de tijd voor had, schreef ik de leerzame gedachten en gevoelens die in mij opkwamen, op, en uit deze notities van vele jaren is dit boek nu samengesteld. Zoals de lezers zullen opmerken, is de inhoud zeer gevarieerd. Laten zij er zich zelf een oordeel over vormen. “Een geestelijk mens kan alles beoordelen, maar over hem oordeelt niemand.” (1 Cor.2:15) Aartspriester Johannes van Kronstadt (Sergieff)

The First World War brought peoples from five continents to support the British and French Allies on the Western Front. Many were from colonial territories in the British and French empires, and the largest contingents were Indians and Chinese - some 140,000. It is a story of the encounter with the European 'other', including the civilian European local populations, often marred by racism, discrimination and zenophobia both inside and outside the military command, but also lightened by moving and enduring 'human' social relationships. The vital contribution to the Alles and the huge sacrifices involved were scarcely recognised at the Paris Peace Conference in 1918 or the post-war victory celebrations and this led to resentment - see huge media coverage in 2021. The effect of the European 'other' experience enhanced Asian political awareness and self-confidence, and stimulated anti-imperialism and proto-nationalism. This is a vivid and original contribution to imperial decline from the First World War. and the originality of the work is enhanced by rare sources culled from original documents and 'local' European fieldwork - in French, German and Flemish.

Over the last couple of decades there has been a strong academic interest in how individuals interact with each other while en route. Yet, even if various studies have informed us about present-day realities of travel companionships, we know little about the influence of gender both on these realities, as well as on the discourse in which these are being narrated. This book aims to establish an agenda for the study of companionship in travel writing by offering a collection of new essays which study texts that belong to the broad category of pre-modern and modern travel literature. Chapters explore the differences and similarities in the ways that women and men in the past chose to describe their experiences with, and/or their ideas about companionship, and specifically reveals the influence of gender norms, conventions, restrictions, and stereotypes. This is the first book which looks at the long-term, interdisciplinary, and genuinely international history of gendered discourses on companionship in travel writing. It will be of interest to scholars and students from a wide variety of disciplines, including cultural and social history, as well as cultural, literary, gender, travel, and tourism studies.

This book addresses the many avenues that are still left unexplored when it comes to our understanding of the First World War in the Low Countries. With the ongoing the centenary of the Great War, many events have been organized in the United Kingdom to commemorate its military events, its socio-political consequences, and its cultural legacy. Of these events, very few have paid attention to the fates of Belgium or the Netherlands, even though it was the invasion of Belgium in August 1914 that was the catalyst for Great Britain declaring war. The occupation of Belgium had long-term consequences for its people, but much of the military and social history of the Western Front concentrates on northern France, and the Netherlands is largely forgotten as a nation affected by the First World War. By opening the field beyond the military and beyond the front, this collection explores the interdisciplinary and international nature of the Great War.
