Het werk van Raoul de Keyser vormde de inspiratiebron voor een verhaal over de werkwijze van een schilder. Zijn schilderijen evolueren van een abstracte weergave van alledaagse dingen (hond, fiets, tuinslang) tot geheel abstracte doeken.

Gonzo Republic looks at Hunter S. Thompson's complex relationship with America. Thompson was a patriot but also a stubborn individualist. Stephenson examines the whole range of Thompson's work, from his early reporting from the South American client states of the USA in the 1960s to his twenty-first-century internet columns on sport, politics and 9/11. Stephenson argues that Thompson inhabited, but was to some extent reacting against, the tradition of American individualism begun by the Founding Fathers and continued by Emerson and Thoreau. Thompson sought out the edge-the threshold of chaos and insanity-in order to define himself. His characters enact the same quest, travelling through the surreal landscape of his literary America: the Gonzo Republic

Si l’homme médiéval chemine beaucoup, le voyage, long et périlleux déplacement, ne concerne que quelques catégories sociales dont le chevalier fait partie - courir les routes trempe l’âme guerrière et forge une réputation. Le pèlerin quant à lui se met en marche vers les lieux saints européens ou orientaux, à la recherche du sacré. Raoul de Houdenc, auteur méconnu du début du XIIIe siècle, a transposé ces réalités historiques et sociales dans ses récits et a fait des figures familières du pèlerin et du chevalier les pierres angulaires de son œuvre. Quatre écrits en vers, rédigés sur une trentaine d’années, et à première vue disparates : un bref dit allégorique, un essai didactique intitulé Le Roman des Eles, un pèlerinage onirique au cœur du monde infernal avec Le Songe d’Enfer, et un roman d’aventures arthurien, Meraugis de Portlesguez. Le personnage houdanesque est une figure en marche : du chevalier composé de vertus qui s’élance vers le ciel au pèlerin-rêveur s’enfonçant dans l’au-delà diabolique, Raoul de Houdenc nous offre une vision surprenante de deux types littéraires qu’il réinvente avec humour et subtilité. La pensée et la visée de l’auteur progressent au rythme de ses personnages, et sous la fable et le comique des situations, il propose une réflexion sur son époque et ses contemporains, ainsi qu’une philosophie de l’amour, de l’honneur chevaleresque et de la foi.

"The story of Raoul Wallenberg - the Swedish businessman who, at immense personal risk, rescued many of Budapest's Jews from the Holocaust and subsequently disappeared into the Soviet prison system - is one of the most fascinating episodes of World War II. Yet the complete story of his life and fate can only be told now - and for the first time in this book - following access to the Russian and Swedish archival sources, previously not used. Born into a wealthy Swedish family, Wallenberg was a moderately successful businessman when he was recruited by the War Refugee Board to manage the rescue mission of thousands of Hungarian Jews. Once in Budapest, he created and distributed so called 'protective passports' (or Schutz-Pass) among the Jewish population, thus managing to save up to 8,000 people. Through the 'safe houses' and clandestine networks that he established around the city, many thousands more were saved from the concentration camps. Yet, when Budapest was liberated by the Red Army in January 1945, Wallenberg was arrested and taken to Moscow. One of the reasons for his arrest was that the Soviets could not understand the nature of his mission: formally he was a Swedish diplomat but he worked for an American agency. On the basis of previously unseen Soviet sources, Jangfeldt has been able to reconstruct the events surrounding Wallenberg's arrest almost hour by hour and, for the first time, he presents a highly plausible theory about the reasons why Wallenberg was arrested and what happened to him after he disappeared. With access to previously unpublished material, Bengt Jangfeldt provides the first complete account of Wallenberg's life - from his childhood in Sweden to his disappearance in a Russian jail - and sheds important new light on one of the greatest heroes of World War II. This is a thrilling tale of intrigue, espionage and heroism which will captivate all readers of modern European history."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

"Examining the diary as a particular form of expression, Holding On and Holding Out provides unique insights into the experience of Jews during World War II in France. Unlike memoirs and autobiographies that reconstruct particular personal events, diaries, by contrast, record daily events without the benefit of retrospect and describe events as they unfold. This book assess how each individual used the diary to record their daily life under persecution; each was waiting for some end, be it with hope or despair. Each individual used the diary to bear witness not only to the terror of their own lives, but also to the lives and suffering of others. Several used their writing as a memorial to people who were killed. All use their writing to assert: I live, I will have lived. The book concludes by considering each diarist as selves in history, investigating how their reflections on their experience are informed by the times in which they had lived before the advent of persecution."--
