Summary What is a minority How did members of minority groups in the medieval Mediterranean world interact with contemporaries belonging to other groups In what ways did those contacts affect their social positions and identities The essays collected in this volume approach these questions from a variety of angles examining polemic social norms economic exchange linguistic transformations and power dynamics. These essays recast the concept of minority - as a mutable condition rather than a fixed group designation - and explore previously-neglected collective and individual interactions between and among minorities around the medieval Mediterranean basin. Minorities are often defined as such because they were in some way excluded from access to resources or denied participation as a consequence of a group affiliation or facet of their identity. Yet at times their distinctiveness also lay less in their exclusion than in particular ways of relating to spheres of power whether political or moral and in certain dissenting conceptions of the world. Through these contributions we shed light on both the continuities that such interactions displayed across intervals of space and time and the changes that they underwent in particular locales and historical moments.

1970ref. 198741970. Twentieth Century Fox's Myra Breckinridge publicity archive 1970 documents the visual promotion of a major-studio film centered on a transgender woman gender nonconformity and attacks on Hollywood masculinity. Adapted from Gore Vidal's 1968 novel the film starred Raquel Welch as Myra Breckinridge with John Huston Mae West Rex Reed Farrah Fawcett and Roger Herren in supporting roles; AFI identifies the film's subjects as including bisexuality homosexuality lesbianism "sex change" Hollywood actors students seduction and gendered social conflict. The material belongs to LGBTQ film and New Hollywood publicity culture illustrating how a controversial commercial studio release used star image costume and provocative gender performance to market a film built around trans identity and the disruption of conventional sexual roles. The archive consists of four 1970 promotional items for Myra Breckinridge: three color lobby card photographs and one vintage glossy black-and-white silver gelatin publicity photograph. The large lobby card measures 11 x 14 inches; the two smaller lobby cards measure 8 x 10 inches; the silver gelatin photograph measures 8 x 10 inches. The lobby cards show scenes from the film featuring Welch and Huston including images of Welch in the white costumes closely associated with the character's stylized screen persona; all three lobby cards carry the film title the 20th Century Fox logo and a 1970 copyright statement in the lower white margin. The images foreground costume celebrity and theatrical confrontation rather than narrative continuity making the group especially useful for studying the marketing of gender transgression through Hollywood glamour camp visual codes and star publicity. 1 Twentieth Century Fox.

ref. 59436Ludion 2022. Hardcover 240 pages 330 x 240 mm NL / ENG / NEW illustrations in colour / b/w. ISBN 9789493039803. Kunstenaar José Vermeersch 1922-1997 staat bekend om zijn keramieken figuren van heterogene figuren. Hij was echter ook schilder wever en ontwerper en creëerde een rijk oeuvre dat doordrongen is van zijn passie voor mensen dieren en het leven. Dit boek is een eerbetoon aan het ontstaan van het figuratieve werk van Vermeersch en laat aan de hand van een honderdtal beelden en schilderijen zien hoe zijn picturale en keramische oeuvre op een bijzondere manier met elkaar zijn verweven. Het boek gaat dieper in op het onbepaalde en non-binaire karakter van Vermeersch' werk - van gender tot soort mens/dier - en op begrippen als duurzaamheid en breekbaarheid. Presences onthult een reeks ongepubliceerde beelden uit het archief van de kunstenaar waarin we hem aan het werk zien in zijn atelier of bij de twee houtovens die hij zelf bouwde. Het gaat om unieke foto's die getuigen van het geduld en de zorg waarmee Vermeersch zijn sculpturen maakte. Hij liet zijn aarden figuren staan liggen of zitten rustig wachtend op het in werking treden van de alchemie van de natuurelementen. Bij Vermeersch vallen een zekere traagheid op alsook een sterke verbondenheid met een welbepaalde plek en met de natuur. Net daarom lijkt zijn werk meer dan ooit aansluiting te vinden bij de huidige aandacht voor duurzame en autonome productieprocessen. Het boek werd samengesteld door Lilou Vidal en bevat twee nieuwe essays van schrijvers-curatoren Laura McLean-Ferris en Dieter Roelstraete en een tekst van kunstenaar-schrijver Rik Vermeersch zoon van José die het werk van zijn vader door en door kent. //// The artist José Vermeersch 19221997 is known for his ceramic sculptures of heterogeneous figures. Yet he was a painter weaver and designer too who created a rich oeuvre imbued with his passion for people animals and life. This book pays tribute to the genesis of Vermeersch figurative work and uses around a hundred sculptures and paintings to show the exceptional way in which his pictorial and his ceramic work are interwoven. The indeterminate and non-binary character of Vermeersch oeuvre from gender to species human/animal is explored in depth along with ideas such as sustainability and fragility. Presences unveils a series of unpublished pictures from the artists archive in which we see him at work in his studio or at the two wood-fired kilns he built for himself. Unique photographs that testify to the patience and care with which Vermeersch created his sculptures. He had his clay figures stand lie or sit waiting quietly for the alchemy of the natural elements to take effect. Vermeersch work displays a certain slowness and a powerful affinity with a specific place and with nature. Precisely because of this his work seems to connect more than ever with the current focus on sustainable and autonomous processes of production. Ludion 2022 hardcover
