Homosexuality in Africa - Bart Luirink, Madeleine Maurick - eBook (9789463380829)

Plagues of locusts, drought and ebola. In Africa homosexuals are getting the blame for everything. It's open season. Homosexuality is called 'un-African', 'in direct conflict with its own distinctive culture', a 'western disease'. What's the motivation behind those leaders who are fighting to keep their continent 'morally pure'? There's another story. More and more African gays and lesbians are coming out of the closet. Equal rights activism has become a reality and a passionate debate is raging. Well-known personalities are speaking out. Anti-homosexual laws are biting the dust. Actions and reaction. Acceleration and obstruction. Shifting perspectives in a rapidly changing continent. What's the real situation? Where does the antipathy towards homosexuality come from? What's the role of religious fundamentalism? Does western interference help or hinder? Is Africa different or just the same? This book gives an illuminating insight into a world in which old and new, tradition and moderni…

De kern van de zaak - Madeleine St John - eBook (9789038807188)

Londen in de jaren negentig. Nicola gaat even naar buiten om sigaretten te halen. Wanneer ze terugkomt, treft ze een vreemde man in haar woonkamer aan. Toegegeven, hij ziet eruit als haar Jonathan, hij klinkt als haar Jonathan, maar die zou haar toch nooit zomaar de deur wijzen met de woorden: ‘Het werkt gewoon niet.’ Haar wereld staat op zijn kop. Nicola vraagt advies aan haar getrouwde vrienden, die er ook niets van begrijpen. De kern van de zaak is hilarisch en hartverscheurend tegelijk. St John is op haar bitterzoete best als ze schrijft over de dingen die vrouwen doen om vast te houden aan de liefde, en de dingen die mannen doen om eraan te ontsnappen. Voor de liefhebbers van A.M Homes en Jane Austen. Over De vrouwen in het zwart: ‘Een heerlijk boek om mee weg te kruipen.’ – Margriet ‘Ze slaagt erin om de middelmatigheid waar haar personages onder lijden even tragikomisch als ontwapenend neer te zetten.’ **** – HUMO ‘Een levendig, verfijnd en kunstig verhaal.’ – The New York Times…

Homosexuality, Transidentity, and Islam - Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed - eBook (9789048544080)

-- With a foreword from Jan Jaap de Ruiter. Translation and Afterword by Adi S. Bharat. -- In *Homosexuality, Transidentity, and Islam: A Study of Scripture Confronting the Politics of Gender and Sexuality*, Ludovic-Mohamed Zahed systematically analyses the entirety of Islamic scriptural sources that relate to the question of gender and sexuality in relation to their historical contexts. Through an approach that is certainly more politically engaged than that of most Islamic thinkers of our time, he clarifies key theological concepts that may seem esoteric to the uninitiated. In doing so, he makes a compelling case for the compatibility of sexual and gender diversity within Islam. Zahed also examines the historical and contemporary socio-political impacts of inclusive and exclusive (or, quite simply, homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic) interpretations of scripture. This important study dynamically examines the connections between scripture, interpretation, and the politics of ge…

The beauty of the difference - Martine F. Delfos - eBook (9789088508561)

In The Beauty of the Difference, Martine Delfos describes the differences and similarities between men and women. She shows how these differences and similarities intertwine like cogwheels. She does not limit herself to listing the differences and similarities, but she describes how male and female are interrelated, and how they have meaning with and for each other, from biological, evolutionary and social elements. From this viewpoint one can understand the meaning of these differences in contemporary society and Delfos shows how biological similarities make emancipation of both men and women possible. Delfos thinks that both the differences and the similarities are necessary for the emancipation of men and women. She states that we must emancipate with the biological flow instead of against the biological current. The book provides an in-depth insight into the way men and women function and its significance for entering into relationships, both heterosexual and homosexual. Why homose…

De tekening in landschapsontwerp en stedenbouw/The Drawing in Landscape Design and Urbanism - eBook (9789462085923)

For Dutch see below - English - In recent decades, the drawing practices in landscape design and urbanism have seen a number of transformations. Current developments in theory and practice have rendered the distinction between the two more diffuse. Both disciplines are no longer regarded as architecture - or gardening - 'on a larger scale', primarily anchored in questions of housing, land development or embellishment. Today ecology, energy transition or 'metabolic' issues are much more present, which leads to new forms of drawing. Leaving an object-oriented thinking behind, both disciplines seem to be convinced of the importance of the process and the impact of the factor of time. Space has become understood as an intersection - a 'coagulation' - of a multiplicity of flows and processes. For designers it is an essential question how all these flows and processes come together, materialize, and become visible, and how their 'spatialization' in drawings is represented in analysis and des…

Motion in Maps, Maps in Motion - eBook (9789048542956)

This volume argues that the mapping of stories, movement and change should not be understood as an innovation of contemporary cartography, but rather as an important aspect of human cartography with a longer history than might be assumed. The authors in this collection reflect upon the main characteristics and evolutions of story and motion mapping, from the figurative news and history maps that were mass-produced in early modern Europe, through the nineteenth- and twentieth-century flow maps that appeared in various atlases, up to the digital and interactive motion and personalised maps that are created today. Rather than presenting a clear and homogeneous history from the past up until the present, this book offers a toolbox for understanding and interpreting the complex interplays and links between narrative, motion and maps.
