Soft cover. Condizione: Good. 1st Edition. Uncommon Belgian late-1960s publication combining missionary debate, social criticism, development issues and striking psychedelic graphic design. Published by Lannoo in Tielt in 1969, Wat doen jullie nog in Europa? reflects the profound changes taking place within European Catholicism and missionary thinking during the late 1960s. Rather than viewing the non-European world only as an object of missionary activity, Omer Tanghe and Luk Craye turn the question back toward affluent Europe itself: its materialism, social inequality, international responsibilities and relationship with the developing world. The volume combines reportage, debate, photography and short polemical texts and is explicitly directed toward a younger generation shaped by the protest culture of the late 1960s. Particularly notable is the highly distinctive psychedelic cover and interior graphic treatment, designed by Luk Craye, making the book interesting not only for religious and social historians but also for collectors of Belgian 1960s graphic design and countercultural print culture.

Soft cover. Condizione: Good. 1st Edition. Scarce first edition of this striking Belgian 1968 publication for and by young people, combining Christian reflection, social protest, photography and highly distinctive graphic design. Rather than presenting Jesus through conventional devotional language, Deze man Jezus places his message within the social conflicts and moral debates of the late 1960s. The volume combines short essays, reportage, photography, illustrations and collage-like page design, addressing themes including war, racism, social injustice, youth protest, political violence and personal responsibility. Its visual language is particularly notable: bold typography, pop-art-inspired colour, documentary photography and experimental layouts reflect the atmosphere of 1968 and the attempts of a younger generation of Belgian Christians to reinterpret faith in a rapidly changing society.
