book cover Ferenczi Dialogues

quote: "Soreanu, Staberg and Willner provide a book that is rich and thought-provoking and restores Ferenczi to a place of significance in clinical psychoanalytic theorizing. They examine Ferenczi’s thinking in ways that counter Freud and expand upon his concepts." - John Pellitteri, Journal of Analytical Psychology

book cover Interpretation for Liberation

quote: Ernst Wolff shows how interpretation engages with the repercussions of sociohistorical crises […] from which nevertheless emerges an irrepressible desire for emancipation and self-affirmation. - Charles Mbele, Université de Yaoundé 1

quote: Wolff has written a book that vastly expands the boundaries of African Philosophy by […] taking seriously the ideas and discourses of individual African thinkers and engaging them at the most granular level. - Olúfé. mi Táíwò, Cornell University

quote: Combining rigorous argumentation with a rare clarity of expression, this well-researched and brilliantly written book will be of enormous value and significance to students and scholars of philosophy and the social sciences. - Kasereka Kavwahirehi, University of Ottawa

book cover London Exile

image of person with short dark hair + quote: 'London Exile' aims to contribute to a rewriting of the history of modern art and to expose the significance of global connections and cross-border migration movements. - Burcu Dogramaci, author of 'London Exile'

qoute: Burcu Dogramaci’s 'London Exile' constitutes the definitive history of how the cultural workers who fled Nazi Germany—from artists, photographers, designers, and sculptors to publishers and gallerists—were shaped by their emigration. It also tells the story of how these immigrants left indelible marks on their city of refuge and how their work there forever changed London, remaking it into the celebrated modern cultural metropolis that it is today. - Elizabeth Otto, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York

In een tijd waarin het denken vaak verdeeld wordt tussen een extreem negatieve of een overdreven glorieuze kijk op de kolonisatie, is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwd en praktisch werk iets waaruit leerkrachten zeker dankbaar kunnen putten. De vele voorbeelden, de goede omkadering en de concrete lesmodules zijn een handig instrument voor de geschiedenisles. - Frederik Maertens, Tijdingen uit Leuven (nr. 184, zomer 2025)
