Dirk Lauwaert Selected Writings, 1983-2004

Belgian writer and critic Dirk Lauwaert (1944-2013) wrote about images, be they moving or still, historical or contemporary, overfamiliar or unseen.

Hugo Grotius Annals of the war in the Low Countries

The Annals of the War in the Low Countries is one of Hugo Grotius' lesser-known works. Grotius expresses a contrarian view of the early revolt, which he presents not as a united battle for the true faith and the ancient liberties of the land but as a protracted and painful struggle, not only with the great power of Spain, but also with discord, selfishness and religious fanaticism among the Dutch. To convey this complex and controversial vision of the foundational years of the Dutch Republic, Grotius...

Epicureanism and scientific debates

antiquity and late reception

Epicureanism is not only a defence of pleasure: it is also a philosophy of science and knowledge.

It shows that the philosophy of Epicurus and his heirs, from antiquity to the classical age, founded a rigorous and coherent conception of knowledge. This first part of a two-volume set examines more specifically...
