En complément au livre Du Soldat inconnu aux monuments commémoratifs belges de la Guerre 14-18 qui racontait comment les monuments commémoratifs étaient nés, ce second volume vous invite à vous en approcher pour les décoder et comprendre le sens de ces représentations monumentales. Vous donner l’envie de (re)découvrir — sur le terrain — ce patrimoine extraordinaire, de scruter de plus près ces statues ou plaques que l’on côtoie tous les jours… Tel est le but de cet ouvrage. Quelle(s) histoire(s) nous racontent les monuments commémoratifs de la Première Guerre mondiale érigés partout en Belgique ? Pourquoi et quand ont-ils été inaugurés ? Quelles images de la Grande Guerre conservent-ils ? Comment interpréter les différents symboles, inscriptions et personnages qui les composent ? De quelle manière ces mémoriaux conservent-ils les souvenirs des civils massacrés, combattants, déportés ou prisonniers politiques morts et des survivants ? Et les survivants, justement, que sont-ils devenus ? Ont-ils obtenus une reconnaissance de l’Etat belge ? À travers de nombreux exemples, ce livre analyse les monuments aux morts (et aux survivants !) belges de la Guerre 1914-1918. Le lecteur pourra désormais resituer dans leur contexte, décrypter et (re)considérer ces précieux témoins du passé. -- quatrième de couverture

Le gisant est l'image de prédilection de l'art funéraire médiéval. Il est la figure centrale d'une constellation iconographique dont le langage symbolique illustre les croyances et les mentalités. Alors que celles-ci connaissent une profonde mutation à la Renaissance, la figure du gisant reste encore en faveur pendant un siècle pour représenter l'objet de mémoire parentale. La province de Brabant compte une centaine de monuments funéraires à l'effigie du gisant. De valeur certes inégale, ils illustrent toujours la créativité des artistes et artisans du pays. Leur valeur patrimoniale est à redécouvrir. Cet ouvrage en dresse l'inventaire raisonné et en présente un commentaire, relayé par une importante documentation photographique

The degree to which the late colonial era affected Europe has been for long underappreciated, and only recently have European countries started to acknowledge not having come to terms with decolonisation. In Belgium, the past two decades have witnessed a growing awareness of the controversial episodes in the country's colonial past. This volume examines the long-term effects and legacies of the colonial era on Belgium after 1960, the year the Congo gained its independence, and calls into question memories of the colonial past by focusing on the meaning and place of colonial monuments in public space. The book foregrounds the enduring presence of 'empire' in everyday Belgian life in the form of permanent colonial markers in bronze and stone, lieux de mémoires of the country's history of overseas expansion. By means of photographs and explanations of major pro-colonial memorials, as well as several obscure ones, the book reveals the surprising degree to which Belgium became infused with a colonialist spirit during the colonial era. Another key component of the analysis is an account of the varied ways that both Dutch- and French-speaking Belgians approached the colonial past after 1960, treating memorials variously as objects of veneration, with indifference, or as symbols to be attacked or torn down. The book provides a thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960.

Thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960 The degree to which the late colonial era affected Europe has been long underappreciated, and only recently have European countries started to acknowledge not having come to terms with decolonisation.
