100 Brugse Duivels
100 ‘Brugse’ Rode Duivels in 112 jaar interlandvoetbal. Goed voor 100 BRUGSE DUIVELS heroïsche verhalen uit de prehistorie van de voetbalsport, toen nog niet alle spelers met hetzelfde truitje op het veld stonden en internationals met de trein naar Duitsland spoorden. De belevenissen van de vier Bruggelingen die met de boot naar het eerste WK in Uruguay reisden. De successen op EK’s en WK’s met Jan Ceulemans, René Vandereycken, Julien Cools 100 en Leo Van der Elst, die België met de ogen dicht voorbij Spanje en naar een vierde plaats in Mexico knalde. 100 portretten van spelers van Cercle en Club Brugge – van Dominique BRUGSE Baes tot Willy Wellens –, die elk op hun manier voetbalgeschiedenis hebben geschreven. Verhalen over ontvoeringen, dubbele beenbreuken, over een winnaar van de Gouden Schoen die stierenbloed dronk, over een godenkind van Club Brugge die voor FC Barcelona en Real Madrid DUIVELS voetbalde of over een onbekende topschutter, die Cercle Brugge in 1911 met bijna twee goals per wedstrijd naar de landstitel schoot. 112 jaar Belgische en Brugse voetbalgeschiedenis, verpakt in één boek.

Neville Hoad gave me a crash course in critical theory on gender; James Loehlin offered great feedback on the overall structure of the study; and Alan Friedman’s meticulous editing improved my writing immeasurably. I am lucky to have had the opportunity to study with Charles Ramírez Berg, who is as great a teacher and person as he is a scholar. He played a crucial role in shaping the chapters on John Ford and my overall understanding of film narrative, representation, and genre. By the same token, I am fortunate to have worked with Elizabeth Cullingford, who has been a great mentor. Her humility, wit, and generosity, as well as her brilliance and tenacity, have been a continual source of inspiration. -
