That bomb tore a hole right through Maltese society and politics. For over thirty years, Daphne took a pen to Maltese society and politics and, wielding it like a razor, shaved as close to the flesh as she possibly could. Her cause was democracy in its fullest sense, Daphne insisted that democracy was not just majority rule, it also comprised minority rights, checks and balances, rule of law, autonomy of the institutions, accountability and good governance. Above all, she upheld freedom of expression as the fundamental instrument through which to scrutinise authorities and hold them to account. For her pains, she was demonised and came under sustained fire for all those thirty years, but not once did she wilt or flinch. \"Invicta\" means \"the unconquered woman\" for Daphne died with pen in her hand and unyielding to the very end. To pay tribute and to commemorate Daphne's significant contribution to democracy and to journalism, this book brings together an array of local and foreign academics, journalists and friends. It is time to reflect deeply on Daphne and her legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarisa Attard\u003c\/strong\u003e, artist and illustrator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGiovanni Bonello\u003c\/strong\u003e, former judge, European Court of Human Rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteve Bonello\u003c\/strong\u003e, freelance artist, cartoonist, illustrator, writer.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGodfrey Baldacchino\u003c\/strong\u003e, Professor of Sociology, University of Malta, UNESCO co-chair (Island Studies and Sustainability), University of Prince Edward Island, Canada.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRev.
