Zones Sensibles is a Belgian publishing house, based in Brussels and specialised in the sciences of men (and also benefiting from 15 years of experience in the publishing world).
?Sciences of men? here refers to a vast field of studies relating to the human in various guises (social, artistic, political, cultural v. natural etc.), a field which touches upon anthropology just as much as graphic novels, cultural studies as well as the history of medicine, the world of sound as well as the geographical world, urban environments as well as uninhabited ones.
With a reasonable rhythm of publications (as growing your readership needs time), and supported by a committee of international scientific sponsorship, Zones sensibles will offer works in a variety of subjects, coming from different voices (renowned university academics as well as young authors), and more often than not translated. The points of view from outside being as important, if not more so, than those coming from within.

Chronica editions were structured not long ago and are unlike any other traditional publishing house. They want to offer the audience and the authors a different approach. Breaks and disruptions are what animate the processes of publication from all points of view: original never-seen-before ideas, new horizons, different books, original advertising?The first work published under this new approach was Joyeux Bordel, by the Belgian artist, cartoonist and caricaturist Pad?R.

Founded in 1949, the Midis de la poésie is an association from Brussels which has, for more than sixty years, promoted literature and poetry, from the past as well as the present. The formula is simple and original: midday every Tuesday, from October to May, a specialist lecturer or writer develops a literary question in the perspective of general culture. To shine a light on their subject, actors read the texts of the tackled authors. Certain meetings offer conferences/shows. To ensure that its heritage continues to exist by (re)discovering past and recent conferences which have left a mark in history, the Midis de la poésie are developing a collection of essays with l’Arbre à paroles.

Les Éditions du Vide, founded in 2012, started from some thoughts : life is a good project. Humanity also is. But it would seem that these subjects have been tackled the wrong way round. The individual is an illusion, and the population is the true being. Time does not pass, it is us who pass. Someone lost their beret. It will be in the lost and found.
Les Éditions du Vide has opened five areas in order to :
INVITE : The "Table d’Hôtes" collection invites artists and authors to publish what they hold in their hearts ;
JOKE : The "Hilarités Gazeuses" collection brings together some titles to make people laugh ;
TELL : The "Nouvelles Fables" collection tells stories ;
EVOKE : The collection of "L’Eclusier des Abysses" takes risks in approaching the inexpressible ;
IMAGINE : The "Accents sans Gravité" collection attempts to express itself through images.
