Two PUBLICATIONS for sale – The Cradle of the Second World War & Archival Image
During the Second World War in Belgium, children are born out of relations between Belgian women and German soldiers. Who were there parents and how did they meet? The book by Gerlinda Swillen, associated researcher at CegeSoma, looks into these relations and their consequences.
What makes an image an archival document? The original idea of the study co-directed by Julie Maeck, researcher at CegeSoma is to identify, on the basis of a wide variety of media, the processes that contribute in giving the image an archival status.
