Farewell to Organised Religion — Contemporary Dutch Prose, a Few Texts, Paratexts, and Contexts
Prace Kulturoznawcze 21, nr 1 | Wrocław 2017 DOI 10.19195/0860-6668.21.7 Ewa Tak-Ignaczak University College Roosevelt, a liberal arts college of Utrecht University Farewell to Organised Religion — Contemporary Dutch Prose, a Few Texts, Paratexts, and Contexts Abstract: The article outlines the phenomenon of a literary success of three contemporary Dutch authors (Maarten ‘t Hart, Franca Treur and Jan Siebelink) whose prose works, while representing various genres (e.g., essay, short story, novel) are united thematically by their preoccupation with the waning socio-cultural regime known as pillarization. All the three authors, raised in the strict Calvinist traditions typical of the northern Netherlands, give voice to disappearing communities and emancipated groups and individuals nowadays characteristic of this highly secularised soci- ety. Their texts ridicule Calvinist biblical literalism (‘t Hart), paint inward-looking niches (‘t Hart and Treur), and contemplate the mystique of grace (Siebelink). Following T. S. Eliot’s reflection from ‘Religion and Literature’ that secularising culture produces literature in which religion passes from omnipresence, through contestation to virtual irrelevance and anachronism, we see that in his essays, memoirs and stories, ‘t Hart approaches Calvinism (and Christianity at large) still as a fierce ideological enemy and favours derision as an instrument of confrontation, while Treur and Siebelink, in their slightly nostalgic tone and ambiguity, seem better equipped to act as agents of conventionally conceived heritage. Keywords: secularism, Dutch literature, religion, atheism, pillarization, Netherlands, Calvinism When I mention religion I mean the Christian re- ligion; and not only the Christian religion, but the Protestant religion; and not only the Protestant religion, but the Church of England. -

In 2014, thanks in part to the Dutch Foundation for Literature, more than three hundred literary projects were initiated, in all the literary genres: novels, stories, biographies, literary non-fiction, children’s and young adult literature, and poetry. The Foundation supported 174 high-quality translations of foreign titles into Dutch and 120 new works by Dutch authors. The value of the new Dutch- language work by writers supported by the Foundation, including many young talents, is reflected in the nominations and awards garnered by their books. Over the past year, almost four hundred translations of Dutch literary works were published abroad after direct mediation and active promotion by the Foundation, 192 of them with financial support for the publishers and translators.
