His work in pastel seems to have commenced under the influence of Tischbein (q.v.) in whose studio in the Keizersgracht Hodges worked on his first trip to Amsterdam in 1788. His copy of Tischbein’s painting of Johanna Sara Bicker demonstrates the English accent Hodges added to the German’s work. The velvety character of his pastels also reflects his training in mezzotint. Unjustly neglected, Hodges’s pastels are highly finished, in natural poses. Often viewed di sotto in sù, his simple bust length figures are shown against plain, usually dark backgrounds.

Koning, en... Femke koningin!’ Multatuli onttroond? In dit nummer moet Multatuli nogal wat persoonlijkheden naast zich dulden die de aandacht opeisen. Het gaat niet zozeer om de Hallemannetjes: ‘De Hallemannetjes... nu ja, die kinderen ontvingen hoger toelaag, maar ze dachten gelukkig niet aan Afrika. Voorlopig vreesde hy hun concurrentie niet, doch wel dat misschien hier of daar 'n ander kind, iets nader aan 't groot-zyn dan hy, hem den pas zou afsnyden.’ Maar Multatuli moet het allereerst behoorlijk afleggen bij Willem Bilderdijk. De eerste twee bijdragen zijn een weerslag van de najaarsbijeenkomst van het Multatuli Genootschap, waarvoor de leden van de Vereniging Het Bilderdijk-Museum uitgenodigd waren en uitgedaagd om Multatuli's kritiek op Bilderdijk te pareren. Honings betwijfelt of Multatuli Bilderdijk wel goed gelezen heeft en sluit zich aan bij de critici van Multatuli, die Bilderdijk onterecht zou neerhalen. Multatuli's Bilderdijk bashing - Honings woorden - ziet hij als het terugkerende element in de literatuurgeschiedenis dat auteurs van de nieuwe generatie zich afzetten tegen hun voorgangers. In het betoog van Gert-Jan Johannes wordt het beeld van Multatuli als groot Denker und Dichter eveneens danig gerelativeerd. Multatuli was volgens hem geen origineel denker, maar een begaafd volger en propagandist van reeds bestaande ideeën.

FOREWORD ASTEL IS IN ESSENCE powdered colour rubbed into paper without a liquid vehicle – a process succinctly described in 1760 by the French amateur engraver Claude-Henri Watelet (himself the subject of a portrait by La Tour): P Les crayons mis en poudre imitent les couleurs, Que dans un teint parfait offre l’éclat des fleurs. Sans pinceau le doigt seul place et fond chaque teinte; Le duvet du papier en conserve l’empreinte; Un crystal la défend; ainsi, de la beauté Le Pastel a l’éclat et la fragilité.1 It is at once line and colour – a sort of synthesis of the traditional opposition that had been debated vigorously by theoreticians such as Roger de Piles in the previous century.

Martinus van Marum & the Beginning of the Age of Museums In a letter to the Dutch minister of the interior Anton Reinhard Falck posted in July 1819, the ornithologist and collector Coenraad Jacob Temminck left no doubt as to what he thought two of his colleagues really wanted to do to him, if the opportunity ever presented itself: “Both”, he wrote, “would stop at nothing to clear me out of the way”.1 He was referring to Sebald Justinus Brugmans, professor of botany and director of the botanical gardens in Leiden, and Martinus van Marum, the director of Teylers Museum and secretary of the Holland Society of Sciences in Haarlem. This was more than just a letter of complaint. Temminck himself was no angel, and at the time was in fact pursuing his own political agenda. He had dined with Falck just a few days earlier, and the two men had discussed the establishment of a national museum of natural history in the Netherlands – of which Temminck was to be handed the directorship. Just 13 months later, Temminck’s highly valuable and widely recognised personal ornithological collection, consisting of more than 4000 stuffed birds, had indeed been merged with both the University of Leiden’s natural history collections and the former Royal Cabinet of Natural History in Amsterdam, to form the new National Museum of Natural History (Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie) based in Leiden.

  • A Poor, Inspired and Melancholy Poet
    A Poor, Inspired and Melancholy Poet Willem Bilderdijk, a Calvinist Celebrity 252 On December 18, 1831, the Dutch poet Willem Bilderdijk (1756-1831) drew his ] last breath. This brought to an end the life of one of the most colourful, influ- ential and versatile figures of the early nineteenth century in the Netherlands. Bilderdijk didn’t just write poetry, he was also a jurist, linguist and all-round man of letters, a historian, philosopher, theologian, botanist, mathematician, architect and portrait artist. Nowadays he is mainly seen as a romantic and forever complaining poet, who expressed his Weltschmerz in overblown poetry, with high-minded lines like ‘For me, for me, is nought to crave / In this pun- ishing life, except the grave.’ Bilderdijk wrote constantly and about everything rick honings under the sun: life and death, love and hate, religion, politics, a child’s death, [ the King’s birthday, the cooking of eggs. He was even inspired by the flies in au- tumn. His distaste for tobacco and German stoves was also expressed in verse. His contemporaries regarded Bilderdijk as the greatest living poet, on a par with Homer, Dante, Shakespeare and Goethe. There wasn’t a genre he didn’t practise; in total he wrote more than three hundred thousand lines of verse. His collected poems fill fifteen hefty tomes, full of mythological, political and religious verse, and a lot of occasional poetry. Most of it is no longer very acces- sible to contemporary readers. His lyrical and autobiographical poems and his poems about death are the most appealing to us.

  • A Concise History of the Netherlands James C
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-87588-2 — A Concise History of the Netherlands James C. Kennedy Frontmatter More Information i A CONCISE HISTORY OF THE NETHERLANDS The Netherlands is known among foreigners today for its cheese and its windmills, its Golden Age paintings and its experimentation in social policies, for example around can- nabis and euthanasia. Yet the historical background for any of these quintessentially Dutch achievements is often unfamiliar to outsiders. This concise history offers an overview of this sur- prisingly little- known but fascinating country. Beginning with the fi rst humanoid settlers, the book follows the most import- ant contours of Dutch history, from Roman times through to the Habsburgs and the Dutch Republic and the Golden Age. The author, a modernist, pays particularly close attention to recent developments, including the signature features of con- temporary Dutch society. In addition to being a political his- tory, this overview also gives systematic attention to social and economic developments, as well as in religion, the arts and the Dutch struggle against the water.

  • France in Amsterdam
    PRESS FEATURE France in Amsterdam France and Amsterdam have age-old ties. As early as the 17th century, Amsterdam was a safe haven for French Huguenots and freethinkers such as René Descartes. Many of these ‘new’ residents settled in the Jordaan, a working-class neighbourhood built in 1613 when the city was expanded. In the 17th century, Amsterdam developed into the main trade centre of Europe. This prosperity went hand in hand with a tolerance towards freethinkers that was unparalleled for that time. This also extended to freedom of the press. Various French newspapers were printed in Amsterdam, because it was not allowed to do so in France. From 1795 until 1813, the Netherlands were part of the French empire and in 1808, Louis Bonaparte was declared king of the Netherlands by his brother Napoleon Bonaparte. He had the city hall in Amsterdam converted into the royal palace. Favourite destination Since the 17th century, Amsterdam has been a favourite destination for French visitors, as becomes apparent in many travel journals. For instance by Marie des Jardins in 1688: ‘Amsterdam is the most pleasurable place in Europe; there is not a Persian or Armenian who would not feel at home there.’ Today, Amsterdam still attracts many French visitors. An import impetus was the arrival of the Thalys, allowing people to travel from Paris to the heart of Amsterdam in just over three hours. Waalse Kerk or the Eglise Wallone The Waalse Kerk at Oudezijds Achterburgwal 159 was originally the chapel of the Sint Paulusklooster, dating back to 1409. When Amsterdam converted from Catholicism to Protestantism in 1586, the chapel was used by Walloon and French Huguenots.
