Lezingen van en over Federico García Lorca
2021 || Paperback || Bart Vonck || Athenaeum
Lorca (1898-1936) behoorde tot de Generatie van ’27, een stroming in de Spaanse poëzie die de metafoor weer tot stuwende kracht van de dichtkunst maakte. Hij publiceerde een eigenzinnige bundel over de zigeuners, de Romancero gitano, en reisde naar New York, waar hij de zwarte cultuur leerde kennen.

2021 || Paperback || Jolle Demmers e.a. || Athenaeum
Geweld hoort bij ons bestaan, maar wat is het eigenlijk? Het bewust toebrengen van schade, of meer?
Mensen sterven dagelijks aan zaken die voorkomen kunnen worden zoals armoede, honger en gebrek aan medicijnen: is dat ook geweld? Maar wie is dan de dader?
Jolle Demmers en Luuk Slooter onderzoeken oorzaken en vormen van geweld. Ze laten zien dat het een paradoxaal fenomeen is: zichtbaar en onzichtbaar. Geweld verwoest en vernietigt, maar het creëert en verandert ook – en kan daarin construc...
