Roger Casterman, topographe en Congo 1926-1936
Ce livre est un hommage à Roger Casterman, le père de Cécile Casterman, qui - ensemble avec son mari Raymond Hamers - est un des fondateurs du Chaire History & Philosophy of Sciences. Comme cité dans l'introduction du livre: "Que faire lorsqu’on se retrouve gardien d’une archive de dessins inédits, d’aquarelles et d’huiles, ainsi que de photographies et autres documents ayant trait à trois régions du Congo Belge – le Katanga, le Kivu et le Maniema – de 1926 à 1936 ? (...) L’archive méritait publication, il fallait écrire un livre. Le titre fut vite trouvé : Roger Casterman. Topographe au Congo 1926-1936." La présenation du livre aura lieu le 23 septembre à Kuumba, la Maison Africaine Flamande à Ixelles (Bruxelles). Pour voir le programme de cet après-midi, cliquez ici.

“Today we no longer have the right to pretend that we command a unique position from which we can view the truth about the world. We must learn not to judge different areas of knowledge, culture, or art, but to combine them and to establish new ways of coexistence with those who enable us to meet the unique demands of our time.”
Ilya Prigogine & Isabelle Stengers,
Order Out of Chaos: Man’s New Dialogue With Nature, 1984
