The body as a mirror of the soul
physiognomy from Antiquity to the Renaissance
The idea of the body as a mirror of the soul has fascinated mankind throughout history. Being able to see through an individual, and drawing conclusions on their character solely based on a selection of external features, is the subject of physiognomy, and has a long tradition running well into recent times. However, the pre-modern, especially medieval background of this discipline has remained underexplored. The selected case studies in this volume each contribute to a better understanding of the...

Bert Thurlings Bizarre legends, the CO2-syndrome, the mysteries of Ethiopia and the enigmatic king Salomon
weird mysteries, curious interpretations
The world is full of misunderstood mysteries. As tourists, we visit an ancient ruin, trying to imagine how it once was but not seeing the advanced technology that was used. Or we walk past some dusty pots in a museum but don't realize how they were made. We walk on and get on with the business of the day. Those stones? Surely they were just cut out of a rock, doesn't everyone know that? Those pots? You just bake them in an oven, right? Everyone knows that too, don't they? But then you scratch your...

how Amsterdam became the cycling capital of the world
The book Bike City Amsterdam, How Amsterdam became the cycling Capital of the World , by Fred Feddes and Marjolein de Lange, is the first comprehensive inside history of sixty years of successful bicycle activism, policy and culture in Amsterdam. As any visitor knows, the bicycle is omnipresent in the streets of Amsterdam, in the rhythm of its people's lives, and in the city's image.

Between text and tradition
Pietro d’Abano and the reception of Pseudo-Aristotle’s Problemata physica in the Middle Ages
New insights into Pietro d'Abano's unique approach to translations. The commentary of Pietro d'Abano on Bartholomew's Latin translation of Pseudo-Aristotle's Problemata Physica, published in 1310, constitutes an important historical source for the investigation of the complex relationship between text, translation, and commentary in a non-curricular part of the corpus Aristotelicum. As the eight articles in this volume show, the study of Pietro's commentary not only provides valuable insights into...

Ton Toutnu The beginning, the end and everything in between
under the auspices of Dr. anTONius F.W. Morselt
The beginning, the end, and everything in between stars the man. It's about the life of a Dutch man, born in 1939 and up to the end that is yet to come. Preparations have started for that end, however. Judging by the large membership numbers of the Nederlandse Vereniging voor Vrijwillige Euthanasie-the Dutch euthanasia association-he is not the only one. Most of this book, however, is about what happens between birth and death. You have to talk to a Dutchman in half-English; that's what they like...

Kit Heyam Before we were trans
a new history of gender
"Across the world today, people of all ages are doing fascinating, creative, messy things with gender. These people have a rich history - but one that is often left behind by narratives of trans lives that focus on people with stable, binary, uncomplicated gender identities. As a result, these stories tend to be recent, binary, stereotyped, medicalised and white. 'Before We Were Trans' is a new and different story of gender, that seeks not to be comprehensive or definitive, but - by blending culture,...
