    Living with History, 1914-1964 (2021)
    Universitaire Pers Leuven
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: Living with History focuses on a particular aspect of heritage preservation in the 20th century: destruction and post-war reconstruction in Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain, and The Netherlands. This book establishes a status quaestionis for the historiography of wartime and post-war preservation, and sets these particular developments in preservation history in the context of the general evolution of architecture and urbanism. It studies the specific role of conservationists and heritage institutions and administrations in the overall reconstruction, and examines the specific role of architects and planners in preservation matters. Living with History se concentre sur un aspect particulier de la conservation du patrimoine au XXe siècle : les destructions et la reconstruction d’ après-guerre en Belgique, en France, en Allemagne, en Grande-Bretagne et aux Pays-Bas. Cet ouvrage dresse un état de la question sous l’ angle de l’ évolution d’ ensemble de l’ architecture et de l’ urbanisme. Il étudie le rôle des conservateurs et des institutions patrimoniales dans la reconstruction en général et examine le rôle spécifique des architectes et urbanistes dans les domaines liés à la conservation.

    Stilte in de klas (2022)
    Leuven University Press | Universitaire Pers Leuven
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-01-28
    Description: Silence runs like a thread through the history of the school. In past centuries, countless teachers have urged children to be quiet. There have also been many publications in which educational authors have reflected on the value of silence for education. In this book, Pieter Verstraete explores the history of the pedagogical significance of silence using previously unexplored archival material. Have you always wanted to know where the preference for classroom silence comes from? Do you wonder why we teach reading in silence today and if it was always like that? Do you want to know how quiet and shy students used to be treated? Or are you curious why Maria Montessori thought silence classes were so important? This book fascinatingly introduces you to the multi-voiced sound of silence in the history of parenting and education.
    Description: Stilte loopt als een rode draad door de geschiedenis van de school. In de voorbije eeuwen hebben talloze leerkrachten kinderen aangespoord om stil te zijn. Er verschenen ook vele publicaties waarin pedagogische auteurs reflecteerden over de waarde van stilte voor het onderwijs. In dit boek verkent Pieter Verstraete aan de hand van niet eerder ontgonnen archiefmateriaal de geschiedenis van de pedagogische betekenis van stilte. Heb je altijd al willen weten waar de voorliefde voor klassikale stilte vandaan komt? Vraag je je af waarom we vandaag in stilte leren lezen en of dat altijd zo was? Wil je weten hoe stille en verlegen leerlingen vroeger werden behandeld? Of ben je benieuwd waarom Maria Montessori stiltelesjes zo belangrijk vond? In dit boek maak je op een boeiende manier kennis met het meerstemmige geluid van stilte in de geschiedenis van opvoeding en onderwijs.

    Babad Tanah Jawi, The Chronicle of Java (2022)
    Leiden University Press | LUP Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-27
    Description: The revised prose version of the Babad Tanah Jawi was originally prepared by C.F. Winter Sr. (1799-1859), with the twofold aim of providing Javanese-language teaching material and of setting a standard for formal Javanese prose writing. At that time, Javanese was almost exclusively written in verse, which was not a medium suitable for the modern world that was dawning on Java. Although Winter achieved his aims in other ways and publications, the present text was mostly forgotten, or was just passed over as another copy of the Meinsma text (Pigeaud, Literature of Java). This was unfortunate, because it deprived linguists of one of the first attempts to create a standard Javanese prose language, and historians of a readable text that presented a Javanese view of Javanese history from the beginning until 1742. To belatedly set the record straight and to honour Winter’s contributions to the development of Javanese, I decided to publish this text in Javanese script and provide an English translation for the general public. Although historians of Java have endeavoured to incorporate Javanese sources in their research, it remains invaluable to view that history directly through the eyes of 17th and 18th century Javanese contemporaries.

    The Heirs of Vijayanagara (2022)
    Leiden University Press | LUP Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This comparative study investigates court politics in four kingdoms that succeeded the s outh Indian Vijayanagara empire during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries: Ikkeri, Tanjavur, Madurai, and Ramnad. Building on a unique combination of unexplored Indian texts and Dutch archival records, this research offers a captivating new analysis of political culture, power relations, and dynastic developments. In great detail, this monograph provides both new facts and fresh insights that contest existing scholarship. By highlighting their competitive, fluid, and dynamic nature, it undermines the historiography viewing these courts as harmonic, hierarchic, and static. Far from being remote, ritualised figures, we find kings and Brahmins contesting with other courtiers for power. At the same time, by stressing continuities with the past, this study questions recent scholarship that perceives a fundamentally new form of Nayaka kingship. Thus, this research has important repercussions for the way we perceive both these kingdoms and their ‘medieval’ precursors.

    Aristotle and the Ontology of St. Bonaventure (2023)
    Leuven University Press | Universitaire Pers Leuven
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-08
    Description: Bonaventure’s metaphysical thought and his interpretation of Aristotle Contemporary scholarship on Bonaventure has characterized him as the Neo-platonic foil to the Aristotelianism of his day. The present book, however, shows a Bonaventure who is highly enthusiastic about utilizing the philosophy of Aristotle and who centers much of his philosophical project around interpreting and understanding the texts of Aristotle. Two goals are central to this book. The first is to shed light on Bonaventure’s greatly understudied ontology and theory of forms, demonstrating how his philosophical system is an important and unique alternative to other medieval Aristotelian systems. The second is to establish, more broadly, how Bonaventure’s interpretation of Aristotle is a resource which should be mined for contemporary efforts in thinking about and reading Aristotle himself. Ebook available in Open Access. This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).

    Tot de bodem (2023)

    Description: Een progressief voorstel voor het landbouwbeleid van morgen De vurige debatten rond de stikstofproblematiek, de droogte, het biodiversiteitsverlies, de seizoensarbeid en de overmatige vleesproductie en -consumptie hebben landbouw weer helemaal op de maatschappelijke en politieke agenda gezet. De vraag dringt zich stilaan op of we in Vlaanderen en Europa effectief nog op een duurzame en economisch rendabele manier aan landbouw kunnen doen en hoe die landbouw dan vorm moet krijgen. Het huidige debat is echter sterk polariserend: landbouw versus ecologie, vermarkting versus subsistentie, schaalvergroting versus familiebedrijven, comparatieve voordelen en specialisatie versus diversiteit, enzovoort. Polariserende discussies brengen helaas zelden antwoorden. Dit boek wil daarom de klassieke tegenstellingen doorbreken. Verschillende experts laten de breuklijn tussen ecologie en landbouw achter zich en formuleren aanbevelingen voor een progressief landbouwbeleid. Hoewel elk individueel hoofdstuk oplossingen biedt voor een deelaspect van landbouw, ligt de kracht van dit boek net in de oproep om ad-hocmaatregelen achterwege te laten en te werken aan een coherent landbouwplan. De complexiteit van ons huidig landbouwbeleid heeft nood aan een coherent landbouwplan. Dit boek neemt het initiatief om hiertoe een progressief voorstel te lanceren.

    Officiersvorming in klare taal (2023)
    Leiden University Press | LUP Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: "Officiersvorming in klare taal" is not the first and certainly not the last publication on officer formation. The importance of officer formation has always been endorsed over time and continues to have plenty of attention today. Each period requires a contemporary answer to the question of exactly what officer formation is and how it takes place. This book is not only about what officer formation is but also contains practical tools and tips on how officer formation can take shape in practice. In the first part of the book, science comes into play. In recent years, virtue ethics, in addition to the ethics of duty and the ethics of consequences, have increasingly found their way into thinking about officer education. Besides a clear exposition of the possibilities of a virtue ethics approach, its limits are also discussed. The first part concludes with a contribution on the relationship between formation and social safety, two concepts that cannot be separated. The second part in this book starts with a historical consideration of officer formation through the years, particularly at the KIM and at the KMA. The perspective is then broadened by also looking at formation of civilian executives at Nyenrode Business University. Foreign perspectives are also covered in essays on officer formation in the United Kingdom and Germany. The third section focuses on stories. In addition to a contribution on the formative value and possibilities of stories in games and films, first-hand experiences of today's officers and trainers are featured. In gripping interviews, they recount the formative events in their lives. It makes clear that formation is not limited to training, but is present always and everywhere. Finally, the fourth part describes the NLDA's current perspective on officer formation. It focuses on the importance of camaraderie and character formation and shows how it is woven into all training. The book concludes with a current look at officer formation as currently developed by the Defense Staff.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960 The degree to which the late colonial era affected Europe has been long underappreciated, and only recently have European countries started to acknowledge not having come to terms with decolonisation. In Belgium, the past two decades have witnessed a growing awareness of the controversial episodes in the country’s colonial past. This volume examines the long-term effects and legacies of the colonial era on Belgium after 1960, the year the Congo gained its independence, and calls into question memories of the colonial past by focusing on the meaning and place of colonial monuments in public space. The book foregrounds the enduring presence of “empire” in everyday Belgian life in the form of permanent colonial markers in bronze and stone, lieux de mémoire of the country’s history of overseas expansion. By means of photographs and explanations of major pro-colonial memorials, as well as several obscure ones, the book reveals the surprising degree to which Belgium became infused with a colonialist spirit during the colonial era. Another key component of the analysis is an account of the varied ways in which both Dutch- and French-speaking Belgians approached the colonial past after 1960, treating memorials variously as objects of veneration, with indifference, or as symbols to be attacked or torn down. The book provides a thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960. Free digital appendix: detailed list of monuments in Belgium linked to the country’s colonial past This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Dit boek vertelt het verhaal van de Europese slavernijgeschiedenis vanuit een Zuid-Hollands perspectief. Van de zestiende tot de negentiende eeuw speelde de koloniale wereld een steeds belangrijkere rol in de economie van Holland. De provincie werd een draaischijf voor Europese goederen, kapitaal, arbeid en kennis. Vooraanstaande Zuid-Hollandse regenten als Johan de Witt spanden zich in voor de slavenhandel. In de negentiende eeuw zorgde raciaal denken bij Zuid-Hollandse politici zoals Jan Willem Gefken of James Loudon voor het in stand houden van de koloniale hiërarchie en het uitbuiten van koloniale onderdanen.

    Reflections on the Russia-Ukraine War (2024)
    Leiden University Press | LUP Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: The Russia-Ukraine war is a multifaceted beast. It ranges from fighting on the ground to high diplomacy, from domestic anti-war protests to international weapon supplies, from justification through sham referenda to coercion via economic sabotage, and from operational misdirection to covering up war crimes. There are close connections between these facets: the collapse of a front leads to the discovery of mass graves; the delivery of weapon systems depends on Zelensky’s appeal to the international community; sham referenda followed by annexation enable accusations of unwillingly mobilised soldiers who refuse to defend the motherland. This volume sheds light on the Russia-Ukraine war, exploring this multitude of facets and their interconnections. Bringing together the expertise of our colleagues at the Netherlands Defense Academy (NLDA) allows us to adopt a distinctively interdisciplinary approach, offering uniquely comprehensive and timely reflections on this armed conflict. The 27 chapters in this volume are centered around five themes. The first section covers historical and contemporary narratives, intelligence, digital technologies, and communication strategies. The second provides in-depth analyses of the operational aspects of the war, including warfighting on land, at sea, in the air, as well as in the space and cyber domains. The third section on international involvement covers topics such as sanctions, burden sharing, arms support and implications of the war on international institutions and the world order. The fourth provides analyses of the normative framework that applies to the Russia-Ukraine war. Finally, the fifth section deals with the way armed forces can transform their organisations and learn from this war, and concludes with questions on how and when the Russia-Ukraine war might end.
