Her most recent book, Rumours of Revolt. Civil War and the Emergence of a Transnational News Culture in France and the Netherlands, 1561-1598, will be published by Brill in May 2021. She has also published on maritime history and Dutch-Ottoman diplomacy. Her research interests include the reception of news and media, diplo- matic history, early modern France, and the Ottoman Empire. Josephine van den Bent is postdoctoral researcher at the history department of Radboud Univer- sity Nijmegen, investigating water management in Middle Eastern cities (c. 700-1500) as part of the nwo-funded project ‘Source of Life’. Her PhD thesis (University of Amsterdam, 2020) analysed the representation of the Mongols in the Mamluk sultanate of Egypt and Syria, c. 1250-1350. Her research interests include ethnic stereotyping, urban organisation, and the medieval and early mod- ern Middle East. She is also editor-in-chief of the semi-academic journal ZemZem. Tijdschrift over het Midden-Oosten, Noord-Afrika en islam. Abstract Recent historiography has demonstrated how Istanbul became part of a European media landscape in the seventeenth century. This article argues that European coun- tries not only targeted the Ottoman Porte but also tried to reach Arabic-speaking audiences in other major Ottoman cities, such as Aleppo. It does so through an anal- ysis of a remarkable source, an Arabic manuscript pamphlet written by a Frenchman in Aleppo in January 1673, which tells the story of the exploits of Louis xiv in the Dutch Republic during the Year of Disaster.

Vladimir Nabokov, Speak, Memory Wiep van Bunge Dat de Nederlandse Republiek rond 1700 reeds geruime tijd een broeinest was van filosofisch radicalisme, mag na de publicatie van Jonathan Israels Radical Enlightenment als bekend worden verondersteld.1 Je kunt met Israel van mening verschillen over de kwaliteit van dit radicalisme, over de invloed die het had gedurende de achttiende eeuw in Nederland en elders, en over de moderniteit van deze radicale Verlichting, maar dat vanaf het midden van de zeventiende eeuw in het voetspoor van Descartes en Spinoza met name binnen het gewest Holland plots ideeën circuleerden die grotendeels haaks stonden op de dominante, christelijke traditie, dat staat nu wel vast. Ook over de precieze omvang van deze vroege Verlichting, en dus over de representativiteit van deze radicalen zullen de specialisten nog lang van mening verschillen. Maar dat die radicalen er waren, dat valt niet langer te ontkennen. Israels boek komt dan ook niet uit de lucht vallen. Ruim twintig jaar gelden was het de Amerikaanse historica Margaret C.

  • Anglo-Dutch Relations, a Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the Years
    1 ANGLO-DUTCH RELATIONS A Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the years 1625-1642 ’’Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests’’ Lord Palmerston Britain’s Prime Minister 1855 and 1859-65 Anton Poot, M.A. Royal Holloway University of London March 2013 Supervised by Professor Pauline Croft, MA (Oxon) DPhil. FSA FRHistS, to be submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Declaration: I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis, ANGLO-DUTCH RELATIONS A Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the years 1625-1642 is my own. Signed: Name: Anton Poot Date: 2013 For my wife Jesmond 2 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to analyse Anglo-Dutch relations in this highly volatile period, as perceived and interpreted by both sides, and it also closes the gap between the notable theses of Grayson1 and Groenveld2. On 23 August 1625 Charles I and the Dutch Republic concluded a partnership agreement for joint warfare at sea and a month later a treaty for war against Spain. In December 1625 England, Denmark and the Republic signed treaties to establish the nucleus of an alliance against the Austrian Habsburgs. Charles wanted an active role in continental politics. Also to compel Spain to support his aim to restore his exiled sister Elizabeth and husband Count Elector Frederick V to their Palatinate estates and Frederick to his Electoral dignities in the Empire. The Dutch wanted England as an active partner in their war with Spain. It was a partnership of convenience, with different objectives but with the intention that success would serve the interests of both.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • ENGLISH NAVAL STRATEGY INTHE 1590S
    ENGLISH NAVAL STRATEGY INTHE 1590s SIMÓN ADAMS Profesor de Historia de la Universidad de Strathclyde Until quite recently, the Anglo-Spanish "War" in the period after the Armada of 1588 was one of the least studied subjects of the reign of Elizabeth. For many years, the standard narrative account of the 1590s was that published by the American historian E.P. Cheyney in two volumes in 1914 and 1926 (1). In the past decade, however, this situation has been transformed. Professor Wernham's edition of the List and Analysis ofState Papers Foreign Series (2) has been followed by his detailed study of military operations and diplomacy in the years 1588-1595 (3), and then by his edition of the documents relating to the "Portugal Voyage" of 1589 (4). Within the past two years, Professor MacCaffrey has published the final volume of his trilogy on Elizabeth's reign and Professor Loades his monograph on the Tudor Navy, while Dr. Hammer has completed his dissertation on the most controversial of the political figures of the decade, the 2nd Earl of Essex (5). Much therefore is a good deal clearer than it has been. Yet wider questions remain, particularly over the manner in which Elizabeth's government conducted the war with Spain. In their most recent work both Wernham and MacCaffrey argüe from positions they have established earlier: Wernham for a careful and defensive foreign and military policy, MacCaffrey for an essentially reactive one (6). This is a debate essentially about the queen herself, a particulary difficult The place of publication is understood to be London unless otherwise noted.

  • Caveat from the Archive: Pieter Van Dam's Beschryvinge Van De Oostindische Compagnie and Crisis Management
    Friedrich, Susanne. “Caveat from the Archive: Pieter van Dam’s Beschryvinge van de Oostindische Compagnie and Crisis Management.” Journal for the History of Knowledge 1, no. 1 (2020): 12, pp. 1–14. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/jhk.15 SPECIAL ISSUE Caveat from the Archive: Pieter van Dam’s Beschryvinge van de Oostindische Compagnie and Crisis Management Susanne Friedrich Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, DE [email protected] This article considers the dynamics between the ideals of good governance, crisis, introspection, and routine. It centers on the Beschryvinge van de Oostindische Compagnie (Description of the [Dutch] East India Company; hereafter, VOC), commissioned in 1693. Compiled by the company’s secretary Pieter van Dam over the course of more than a decade, this work charted the VOC’s organization, areas of operation, and internal processes. The Beschryvinge originated from a perception of crisis among the directors stemming from the company’s decreasing profitability and illicit behavior among those in its service. The directors’ sense of crisis resonated with a growing awareness throughout Europe that good governance required information on administrative actions and procedures. Their concern led to a series of initiatives aimed at providing better means of obtaining such information. Charged with synthesizing the company’s sprawling archive into a more practicable compendium, the VOC’s leading bureaucrat used little and large tools of knowledge to mold the company’s operational practices into a coherent whole, thereby putting the perceived crisis into historical perspective. Ultimately, van Dam’s Beschryvinge contradicted the directors’ fears that the company was inefficient.

    Diplomatica 3 (2021) 167-179 “Ma coustume ne soit de m’addresser aux villes”: Early Modern Amsterdam’s Dealings in City Diplomacy Tessa de Boer Leiden University, Leiden, the Netherlands [email protected] Abstract The historical dimensions of city diplomacy have faced neglect in diplomatic studies and diplomatic history. Historicizing the concept of city diplomacy, however, can benefit both disciplines. Through a case study on early modern Amsterdam’s considerable diplomatic ambitions, I argue that a historical case contextualizes current-day discourses in city diplomacy, and that cities must be assessed as diplomatic actors in order to further complete narratives on traditional state-driven diplomacy. Keywords Amsterdam – city diplomacy – diplomatic law – diplomatic archives – Dutch Republic In both popular and scholarly discourses, the term city diplomacy evokes images of modernity and contemporaneousness. One envisions global confer- ences, cross-stitched networks and ambitious joint strategies to combat bor- derless issues such as climate change and public health. There is a notable lack of reflection on historical – that is, to say, pre-World War ii – city diplomacy.1 This is the result of shortcomings in diplomatic studies and diplomatic history: the former due to lack of interest in the historical dimension, the latter due to a traditional over-emphasis on state-driven diplomacy. However, historicizing 1 Acuto, M. “City Diplomacy.” In The SAGE handbook of diplomacy, eds. C.M. Constantinou, P. Kerr, and P.
