Collected Studies on Francisco Suarez SJ (15481617)
2011 || Hardcover || John P. Doyle || Leuven University Press
Although the Jesuit Francisco Suarez (1548-1617) is one of the most important figures of late scholasticism, his work has not received the attention it deserves in English-speaking scholarly literature. One exception to this generalization is found in the work of the American scholar John P. Doyle, whose ground-breaking studies of several important areas of Suarez's complex but highly original system of thought have helped to make the Jesuit's ideas accessible to several generations of histor...
Plutarchea Hypomnemata Plutarch’s science of natural problems
2016 || Hardcover || Michiel Meeusen || Leuven University Press
The role of natural science in the Roman Imperial Era.
In his Quaestiones naturales, Plutarch unmistakeably demonstrates a huge interest in the world of natural phenomena. The work of this famous intellectual and philosopher from Chaeronea consists of forty-one natural problems that address a wide variety of questions, sometimes rather peculiar ones, and answers pertaining to ancient Greek physics, including problems related to the fields of zoology, botany, meteorology and their respective s...
Studies in Archaeological Sciences Minoan Earthquakes
breaking the myth through interdisciplinarity
2017 || Hardcover || Simon Jusseret e.a. || Leuven University Press
Interdisciplinary study on the role of earthquakes in the eastern Mediterranean.Does the "Minoan myth" still stand up to scientific scrutiny? Since the work of Sir Arthur Evans at Knossos (Crete, Greece), the romanticized vision of the Cretan Bronze Age as an era of peaceful prosperity only interrupted by the catastrophic effects of natural disasters has captured the popular and scientific imagination. Its impact on the development of archaeology, archaeoseismology, and earthquake geology in ...
Orpheus Institute Series The Dark Precursor
Deleuze and Artistic Research
2018 || Hardcover || Paulo de Assis e.a. || Leuven University Press
Deleuze's and Guattari's philosophy in the field of artistic research.
Gilles Deleuze's intriguing concept of the dark precursor refers to intensive processes of energetic flows passing between fields of different potentials. Fleetingly used in Difference and Repetition, it remained underexplored in Deleuze's subsequent work. In this collection of essays numerous contributors offer perspectives on Deleuze's concept of the dark precursor as it affects artistic research, providing a wide-rangin...
Studies in European Comics and Graphic Novels French Cartoon Art in the 1960s and 1970s
2017 || Paperback || Wendy Michallat || Leuven University Press
Pilote's unique position in a new and fast developing youth press market.
The French comic magazine Pilote hebdomadaire arrived in a weakening comics market in 1959 largely dominated by syndicated translations of American comics and comics inspired by a Catholic ethos. It tailored its content and tone to an older adolescent reader far removed from that of France's infant comic. Pilote's profile set it on a turbulent course subject to the vicissitudes and fickleness of fashion which situated i...
Orpheus Institute Series Powers of Divergence
2018 || Paperback || Lucia D'Errico || Leuven University Press
Beyond resemblance: creative divergence in music performance.
What does it mean to produce resemblance in the performance of written music? Starting from how this question is commonly answered by the practice of interpretation in Western notated art music, this book proposes a move beyond commonly accepted codes, conventions and territories of music performance. Appropriating reflections from post-structural philosophy, visual arts and semiotics, and crucially based upon an artistic research ...

Disassembled Images
allan Sekula and Contemporary Art
2019 || Paperback || Alexander Streitberger e.a. || Leuven University Press
“Disassembled” Images takes as a point of departure Allan Sekula’s productive approach of disassembling elements in order to reassemble them in alternative constellations.

Militant Jihadism
Today and Tomorrow
2019 || Paperback || Serafettin Pektas e.a. || Leuven University Press
Jihadist militants keep being a global threat. Many observers suggest that a transformation is likely to happen in their organisation, operation, mobilisation, and recruitment strategies, particularly after the territorial decline of the “Caliphate” of the “Islamic State.” This volume explores different aspects of the future trajectories of militant jihadism and the prospective transformation of this movement in and around Europe. The authors analyse the changing jihadist landscape a...
Material Change
The Impact of Reform and Modernity on Material Religion in North-West Europe, 1780-1920
2022 || Hardcover || Jan De Maeyer e.a. || Leuven University Press
The long nineteenth century (c.1780–c.1920) in Western Europe saw an unprecedented rise in the production and possession of material goods. The material culture diversified and led to a rich variety of expressions. Dovetailing with a process of confessionalisation that manifested itself quite simultaneously, material religion witnessed its heyday in this period; from church buildings to small devotional objects.
The present volume analyses how various types of reform (state, societal, and e...
