INTRODUCTION
The story of a particularly brittle and angry girl was teased by Masereel, a fake cat, as this pretty, clean, but disreputable animal repeatedly shows symbolically in the sequence of images.

But we can't be really angry with her. Not as bad a...

He contributed to journals teaching modern safe sex and hygiene, to Communist and Socialist periodicals, and, more commonly, to an endless array of frontispieces, illustrations, drawings, and woodcuts in commercial, literary works. Our goal is to bring this foresight and vision back to a mo...
