The village of Trosly-Breuil in northern France is home to one of the world s thirty-four L Arche communities, where people with and without intellectual disabilities live and work together. In 2007 the impressive group of social scientists and theologians who Power and Participatory Development : Theory and practice free ebook contribute to this book gathered there to respond to a question posed by the worldwide community s cofounder, Jean Vanier: What have people with disabilities taught me? Editor Hans Reinders emphasizes that the purpose of these analyses and reflections is not to set those with disabilities apart. He explains that it is not their being disabled that makes them special, but rather that sharing their experience enables us to see things that we otherwise readily ignore and to understand the fullness of what it means to be human." Austin Spare was described as the greatest draughtsman in England and was the enfant terrible of the Edwardian art scene but by the time of his death he was living in squalor and all but forgotten. This engaging biography charts the rise and fall of British art's darkest star, who was facinated by mysticism and spirtualism and practised automatic drawing before the Surrealists and developed a unique system of magic. By the 1930s Spare had retreated from fashionable society, living in poverty and obscurity but he never stopped working, only now is his work seen.
