Moral Seascapes

On the Ethics and Aesthetics of Maritime Emergency

2024 || Paperback || Chiara Giubilaro e.a. || Leuven University Press

We are no strangers today to visual representations of human suffering at sea: the refugee crisis that continues to play out in the seascape between Europe and Africa (and not only there) yields an ever-growing archive of humanitarian tragedy. As both a visual backdrop and a lethal medium of unequal mobility, maritime space and landscape play a significant role in mediating the ethical demands of this crisis. Yet there has been little exploration of the longer history of morality’s role in ...

2017 || Paperback || Sjoerd van Tuinen e.a. || Leuven University Press

A Cultural Symbiosis

Patrician Art Patronage and Medicean Cultural Politics in Florence (1530-1610)

2022 || Paperback || Klazina Botke e.a. || Leuven University Press

Contrary to general belief, the history of the Florentine patriciate did not end with the establishment of the State of Tuscany under de’ Medici in 1532. Proud and self-confident patricians did not become subservient courtiers overnight, but remained significantly influential for a long period. They retained their urban identity and longstanding family traditions, while acquiring noble titles, estates, and villas at the same time. The mark that these patricians continued to leave on the cit...

Lumumba’s Iconography in the Arts

|| Paperback || Matthias De Groof || Leuven University Press

It is no coincidence that a historical figure such as Patrice Emery Lumumba, independent Congo’s first prime minister, who was killed in 1961, has lived in the realm of the cultural imaginary and occupied an afterlife in the arts. After all, his project remained unfinished and his corpse unburied. The figure of Lumumba has been imagined through painting, photography, cinema, poetry, literature, theatre, music, sculpture, fashion, cartoons and stamps, and also through historiography and in p...

Male Bonds in Nineteenth-Century Art

2022 || Paperback || Thijs Dekeukeleire e.a. || Leuven University Press

Men’s lives and careers bore the marks of their relations with other men. Yet, such male bonds are seldom acknowledged for what they are: gendered and historically determined social constructs. This volume shines a critical light on male homosociality in the arts of the long nineteenth century by combining art history with the insights of g...
