Justus van Effen (1684-1735), leven en werk /
:
Justus van Effen (1684-1735) geldt algemeen als een van de belangrijkste Nederlandse schrijvers uit de achttiende eeuw. Buitenlandse onderzoekers noemen hem een briljant essayist en een sleutelfiguur bij de overdracht van het ideeëngoed van de Verlichting. Dat alles uitsluitend op basis van zijn Franstalige publicaties. In eigen land daarentegen kent men Van Effen alleen als auteur van De Hollandse Spectator , waarin hij optrad als moreel en literair leidsman voor de opkomende burgerij. Maar over de persoon zelf achter al deze anonieme geschriften was tot dusver weinig of niets bekend. In deze biografie wordt daarom voor het eerst gepoogd om met behulg van archiefgegevens een totaalbeeld te geven van het leven en werk van Van Effen.

Imagination and Art: Explorations in Contemporary Theory /
:
This transdisciplinary project represents the most comprehensive study of imagination to date. The eclectic group of international scholars who comprise this volume propose bold and innovative theoretical frameworks for (re-) conceptualizing imagination in all of its divergent forms. Imagination and Art: Explorations in Contemporary Theory explores the complex nuances, paradoxes, and aporias related to the plethora of artistic mediums in which the human imagination manifests itself. As a fundamental attribute of our species, which other organisms also seem to possess with varying degrees of sophistication, imagination is the very fabric of what it means to be human into which everything is woven. This edited collection demonstrates that imagination is the resin that binds human civilization together for better or worse.

L'Intrigue dénouée. Mythe, littérature et communauté dans la pensée de Jean-Luc Nancy /
:
Cet ouvrage est la première étude systématique du rapport entre communauté et littérature dans la pensée de Jean-Luc Nancy. L'auteure développe la thèse originale que cette relation doit être comprise comme une refonte du mythe. Traversant l'œuvre de Nancy dans son intégralité, elle démontre de façon incomparable comment s'articulent les questions centrales de la communauté et de la littérature. De plus, en faisant ce lien en termes de « mythe », ce livre situe l'œuvre de Nancy dans une tradition plus large, allant du romantisme allemand aux théories contemporaines de la pertinence sociale de la littérature. This is the first book to provide a systematic investigation of the relation between community and literature in the work of Jean-Luc Nancy. It develops the original claim that this relation has to be understood as a rethinking of myth. Traversing the entirety of Nancy's vast oeuvre, the author offers an incomparable account of the ways in which Nancy's central questions of community and literature are linked together. Moreover, by putting this linkage in terms of 'myth', this book situates Nancy's work within a larger tradition, leading from German Romanticism to contemporary theories of the social relevance of literature.

Chīn-nāma /
:
Born in Macerata, Italy, in 1552, Matteo Ricci was a Catholic priest who was sent to the Jesuit representation to Macau in 1582. His assignment was to travel on to mainland China and seek to establish the first permanent Jesuit mission there. Ricci arrived in China in 1583, never to leave it again. He died there in 1610. Fluent in Chinese, he was very succesful, on good terms with people that mattered, much appreciated as a carthographer and astronomer, and given free access to the Forbidden City, which was quite exceptional. Ricci's account of his mission to China, called De Christiana expeditione apud Sinas , was published posthumously in 1615. The present work is a Persian translation of the book's first fascicle made in India by a Persian convert to Christianity from the seventeenth century. The translation is significant in that it was made at the suggestion of a Jesuit priest, most likely from missionary ambitions.

Baouît, 2008-2018 : panorama et perspectives : rencontre de l'archéologie et des textes : Journées d'étude des 7-8 juin 2018, Paris, Ecole du Louvre /
:
"Le site monastique de Baouît en Moyenne-⁹gypte fait l'objet depuis 2003 de fouilles arcȟologiques, meňes conjointement par l'Ifao et le muše du Louvre. Š'tendant de la ̌priode byzantine ayant přčď la Conqůte aux premiers sïcles de ľ'poque arabe, il sert plus largement de ř̌frence dans la řgion du Bassin ̌mditerraňen. Des jourňes ď'tude organišes en juin 2018 onť ť l'occasion de faire le point sur l'activiť arcȟologique řcente in situ et sur la recherche foisonnante susciťe aup̈rs des chercheurs et universitaires au plan international. La publication des actes en deux parties, arcȟologie et textes, met en regard les premiers řsultats des campagnes de terrain sur une ďcennie et les travaux actuels meňs en paral̈lle dans le champ papyrologiquẻ travers de nombreuses collections. Les dix-sept articles řunis dans ce volume přsentent les řsultats de recherches řcentes et iňdites, traiťes par dif̌frents špcialistes qui le plus souvent publient špařment. L'originaliť de cet ouvrage est de les řunir dans une approche pluridisciplinaire, permettant aussi de nourrir une řflexion ̌mthodologique sur l'apport et, parfois, les limites de la combinaison des sources.
