Visualising Small Traumas
Contemporary Portuguese Comics at the Intersection of Everyday Trauma
2022 || Paperback || Pedro Moura || Leuven University Press
Portugal's vibrant comics scene originated as early as the 19th century, bringing forth brilliant individual artists, but has remained mostly unknown beyond Portugal’s borders to this day. Now a new generation employs this medium to put into question hegemonic views on the economy, politics, and society. Following the experience of the financial crisis of the past decades and its impact on social policies, access to and rules of public discourse, and civil strife, comics have questioned wha...
Exploring the Transnational Neighbourhood
Perspectives on Community-Building, Identity and Belonging
2022 || Paperback || Britta C. Jung || Leuven University Press
Urban neighbourhoods have come to occupy the public imagination as a litmus test of migration, with some areas hailed as multicultural success stories while others are framed as ghettos. In an attempt to break down this dichotomy, Exploring the Transnational Neighbourhood filters these debates through the lenses of geography, anthropology, and literary and cultural studies. By establishing the interdisciplinary concept of the 'transnational neighbourhood', it presents these localities – whe...

Form and Cycle in Single-Movement Instrumental Works by Liszt, Strauss, Schoenberg and Zemlinsky
2024 || Paperback || Steven Vande Moortele || Leuven University Press
Two-Dimensional Sonata Form is the first book dedicated to the combination of the movements of a multimovement sonata cycle with an overarching single-movement form that is itself organized as a sonata form. Drawing on a variety of historical and recent approaches to musical form (e.g., Marxian and Schoenbergian Formenlehre, Caplin’s theory of formal functions, and Hepokoski and Darcy’s Sonata Theory), it begins by developing an original theoretical framework for the analysis of this type...
Unfolding Time
studies in temporality in twentieth-century music
2011 || Paperback || Darla Crispin e.a. || Leuven University Press
Questions concerning music and its inextricably intertwined and complex interface with time continue to fascinate musicians and scholars.
For performers, the primary perception of music is arguably the way in which it unfolds in real time; while for composers a work appears whole and entire, with the presence of the score having the potential to compress, and even eliminate, the perception of time as passing.
The paradoxical relationship between these two perspectives, and the sub...
The Human Recipe
Understanding your genes in today’s society
2017 || Paperback || Pascal Borry e.a. || Leuven University Press
A smart and witty guide to all you want to know about human genetics.

The authors of 'The Human Recipe' use humour to explain what we understand about human genetics. With anecdotes and topical examples, they demonstrate how genetics affects our everyday lives. Wh...
