‎Editio princeps: A History of the Gutenberg Bible‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller 2017, 2017 Hardcover, 465 pages., 14 b/w ill. + 103 colour ill., 225 x 300 mm, English, Latin, German, .FINE! ISBN 9781909400849.‎

‎The first complete history of all the Gutenberg Bibles. Winner of the 2018 DeLong Book History Prize, awarded by the Society for the History of Authorship, Reading and Publishing (SHARP) The Gutenberg Bible is widely recognized as Europe?s first printed book, a book that forever changed the world. However, despite its initial impact, fame was fleeting: for the better part of three centuries the Bible was virtually forgotten; only after two centuries of tenacious and contentious scholarship did it attain its iconic status as a monument of human invention. Editio princeps: A History of the Gutenberg Bible is the first book to tell the whole story of Europe?s first printed edition, describing its creation at Mainz circa 1455, its impact on fifteenth-century life and religion, its fall into oblivion during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and its rediscovery and rise to worldwide fame during the centuries thereafter. This comprehensive study examines the forty-nine surviving Gutenberg Bibles, and fragments of at least fourteen others, in the chronological order in which they came to light. Combining close analysis of material clues within the Bibles themselves with fresh documentary discoveries, the book reconstructs the history of each copy in unprecedented depth, from its earliest known context through every change of ownership up to the present day. Along the way it introduces the colorful cast of proud possessors, crafty booksellers, observant travelers, and scholarly librarians who shaped our understanding of Europe?s first printed book. Bringing the ?biographies? of all the Gutenberg Bibles together for the first time, this richly illustrated study contextualizes both the historic cultural impact of the editio princeps and its transformation into a world treasure. Eric Marshall White, PhD, became Curator of Rare Books at Princeton University Library in 2015 after eighteen years as Curator of Special Collections at Southern Methodist University's Bridwell Library. A specialist in early European printing, he has published numerous articles and exhibition catalogues on rare books.‎

‎ECCE HOMO : Zie de mens / Behold the Man‎

‎, Hannibal Books 2017, 2017 Paperback, 160 pagina's / pages, NL / ENG, 285 x 240 mm, in prima staat / in good order, illustrations in colour. ISBN 9789492677143.‎

‎Ecce Homo verkent het klassieke thema van de lijdende Christus in de hedendaagse kunst. Een thema dat perfect past in een tijd waarin de mensheid en de menselijkheid op allerlei vlakken geweld wordt aangedaan en we steeds meer worden geconfronteerd met de wezenlijke ongelijkheden in ontwikkeling en vrijheid binnen verschillende delen van de wereld. Voor het eerst worden 63 Belgische (of in Belgi wonende) kunstenaars, jong en oud, opkomend talent en gevestigde waarden, samen tentoongesteld rond n universeel onderwerp: de mens. Ecce Homo raakt aan het beeld van de mens in al zijn facetten, in zijn grootsheid en kwetsbaarheid, met zijn existenti le vragen. Kortom: de mens in de wereld nu. Deze publicatie is de catalogus van de ambitieuze gelijknamige tentoonstelling, die kunst toont op negen verschillende locaties in de historische context van de Antwerpse binnenstad, waaronder het Maagdenhuis en het Museum Mayer van den Bergh. De kunstenaars gaan telkens in dialoog met hun onmiddellijke omgeving en/of met de oude meesters die zich daarin bevinden. Met werk van o.a. Francis Alys, Philip Aguirre y Otegui, Fred Bervoets, Micha l Borremans, Berlinde De Bruyckere, Kendell Geers, Gideon Kiefer, Sofie Muller, Otobong Nkanga, Luc Tuymans, Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven. De teksten worden verzorgd door kunstjournalist Eric Rinckhout. A large media campaign accompanies the exhibition (17 November 2017 - 25 February 2018).‎

‎, Hannibal / Kannibaal , 2022 hardcover, 280 x 230 mm, Illustr. 128 pages ENG-NL edition . nieuwstaat. ISBN 9789464366310.‎

‎De schilderijen van Gideon Kiefer voor het eerst op papier Artist Gideon Kiefer reinterprets the work of great masters such as Rubens, Caravaggio and Repin. "Gideon Kiefer balanceert in zijn werk op de grens van schoonheid en gruwel, van traditie en trash, van zoete herinneringen en apocalyptische visioenen. Zijn geloof in de kracht van de kunst, de troost van de schoonheid, blijft evenwel overeind. Met de verf gaat hij de strijd aan met de duisternis." ERIC RINCKHOUT De begenadigde tekenaar Gideon Kiefer (1970, Belgium) debuteert in dit boek met schilderkundig werk. Kiefers inspiratie komt voort uit zijn groot vaders kunstboeken die hij las als kind, met prenten van werk van meesters als Rubens, Caravaggio en Repin. Hij selecteert en herinterpreteert details die hem intrigeren. Kleine toevoegingen, zoals hand geschreven tekst of kleine anekdotes, verraden een stukje van de persoonlijke inhoud die verborgen zit in ieder werk, net zoals ze de kunstenaars groeiende bezorgdheden over de huidige klimaatcrisis blootleggen. Gideon Kiefer - 3007 A.D. 4897 A.D. is de publicatie bij de expositie in Cultuurcentrum de Werft in Geel van 15 januari tot 17 maart 2022.

‎Silence is a Message Hans Vandekerckhove‎

‎, Hannibal Books, 2024 Hardcover, 29 24 cm -208 pagina's Tweetalige editie Nederlands-Engels, Quadrichromie afbeeldingen . ISBN 9789464941029.‎

‎Kleurrijk overzichtswerk van beeldend kunstenaar Hans Vandekerckhove ?Silence is a message. De titel van dit boek is niet toevallig gekozen. In de schilderijen van Hans Vandekerckhove heerst stilte: een oorverdovende maar weldadige stilte, even weldadig als hun intense kleuren en golvende, bijna flu de vormen.? ? Eric Rinckhout In zijn oeuvre omarmt kunstenaar Hans Vandekerckhove ( 1957) op een persoonlijke en meeslepende manier de complexiteit van het leven. Zijn werk is een harmonieuze fusie van persoonlijke indrukken, kunsthistorische verwijzingen en een diepgaande, intieme connectie met de natuur, architectuur en de mensen om hem heen. In zijn unieke benadering combineert Vandekerckhove de eeuwenoude frescoschilderkunst uit de vroege renaissance met de verfijnde glacistechniek van de Vlaamse primitieven. Het resultaat is een po tische beeldtaal die balanceert op de grens tussen tastbare verwondering en een wereld vol kwetsbaarheid. Met tekstbijdragen van Eric Rinckhout, Christophe Vekeman, Peter Verhelst en Els Wuyts -------------------Colorful survey of the work of visual artist Hans Vandekerckhove ?Silence is a message. The title of this book is anything but accidental. Silence rules in Hans Vandekerckhove?s paintings: a deafening but salutary stillness, as salutary as their intense colours and undulating, almost fluid shapes.? ? Eric Rinckhout In his work, Hans Vandekerckhove (b. 1957) embraces the complexity of life in a unique and compelling way. His art is a harmonious synthesis of personal impressions, art historical references and a deep, intimate connection with nature, architecture and his environment. Vandekerckhove?s distinctive approach combines early Renaissance fresco techniques with the refined glazing of the Flemish Primitives. The result is a poetic visual language that hovers between tangible wonder and a world full of vulnerability.‎

‎New Approaches to the Materiality of Text in the Ancient Mediterranean. From Monuments and Buildings to Small Portable Objects‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 262 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:119 b/w, 18 col., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503601564.‎

‎Summary In recent years, the study of epigraphy and ancient writings has undergone a 'material turn', as scholars have increasingly looked beyond just the contents of written sources to also focus on their broader material and visual contexts as a way of exploring the layers of different meanings that can attach to written evidence. Taking this interdisciplinary approach as its starting point, this volume draws together contributions from specialists in different fields in order to analyze text-bearing objects and monuments from across the ancient Mediterranean world. From texts inscribed on large stone monuments and buildings, clay, or metal tablets, to writings on papyrus and parchment rolls, jewellery, vases, coins, and textiles, writing on different materials had manifold possibilities. The case studies gathered here examine novel approaches to the creation and display of inscribed objects, as well as to the ways in which such items were approached and perceived by people during a chronological period ranging from the Late Bronze Age to Late Antiquity. In doing so, the volume sheds new light not only on the interplay between ancient texts, text-bearers, and viewers within their wider spatial and physical contexts, but also on the possibilities opened by exploring the material aspects of writing through interdisciplinary approaches.

‎Summary Celts, Gaels, and Britons offers a miscellany of essays exploring three closely connected areas within the fields of Celtic Studies in order to shed new light on the ancient and medieval Celtic languages and their literatures. Taking as its inspiration the scholarship of Professor Patrick Sims-Williams, to whom this volume is dedicated, the papers gathered together here explore the Continental Celtic languages, texts from the Irish Sea world, and the literature and linguistics of the British languages, among them Welsh and Cornish. With essays from eighteen leading scholars in the field, this in-depth volume serves not only as a monument to the rich and varied career of Sims-Williams, but also offers a wealth of commentary and information to present significant primary research and reconsiderations of existing scholarship.
