BELGIAN MUSIC, by Charles ~L~irens 2. BELGIAN COLONIAL. POLICY, by Albert de Vleeschauwer The drawing on the cover and on the front page represents a soldier of the XIVth century Ghent militia. The author, NICO GUNZBURG, is a member of the Antwerp Bar, professor at the State University of Ghent and dean of the lAw Faculty. He has published a num ber of books on juridical topics in several languages. A DEMOCRACY IN ACTION WICE in a quarter of a century, Germany has deliberately Tviolated the neutrality of Belgium, in spite of repeated pledges to defend her independence. And twice in a quarter of a century, the Belgian people have been tortured and exposed to the cruelest exploitation by the Teutonic soldiery, backed up by a plundering and looting civil administration. The people of Belgium have kept faith with the principles of freedom and democracy as outlined in their Constitution of 1231 -a constitution which, after more than a hundred years, still remains one of the most liberal in the world. I. A Freedom-Loving People The first acts of the Provisional Government of 1830 were the appointment of a commission to draft a Constitution and the con vocation of a National Congress of elected representatives. Less than three months later, the 139 articles of the Constitution, estab lishing a parliamentary monarchy and proclaiming new freedoms for the people, were adopted by the Congress; its remarkably pro gressive character reflected the influence of the American Declara tion of Independence, the French Declaration of Rights of Men and Citizens, British and French philosophy of the late eighteenth cen tury, and finally, the "Joyous Entry"* and the municipal charters of the Belgian "communes," which the earlier conquerors of the country had been forced to adhere to by an unrelenting citizenry. -

Na de Ten huize van Simon Carmiggelt volgde later met dezelfde schrijver nog een gesprek onder de titel Kronkelen met Simon Carmiggelt en de Ten huize van A. den Doolaard kreeg een uitvoerige aanvulling in de uitzending Dolen met Den Doolaard. Aan elk gefilmd bezoek gaat altijd een vrij omstandig voorbereidend gesprek vooraf, dat ik op schrift stel en dat op de filmdag als aide-mémoire wordt gebruikt. In de uitzending wordt wel dezelfde lijn gevolgd en dezelfde tema's aangesneden, maar het gesprek voor de camera's verloopt toch altijd helemaal anders dan in schrift werd vastgelegd, omdat het altijd een gesprek blijft en de gastheer en de interviewer de absolute vrijheid behouden andere onderwerpen erbij te betrekken, of iets omstandiger op een tema in te gaan. Voor het boek gebruik ik in principe de tekst van het voorbereidend gesprek omdat die altijd vollediger is. Een uitzondering hierop heb ik gemaakt voor Simon Carmiggelt en Kardinaal Alfrink, die me beiden verzochten van de tekst van de reële uitzending uit te gaan. Ik heb in hun geval deze tekst dan ook als basis genomen maar heb hem toch aangevuld met interessante details, die bij de filmopname waren weggevallen. -

Paul Mansion and the scientific approach of randomness 1 Laurent Mazliak Abstract The present paper studies how the Belgian mathematician Paul Mansion became interested in probability theory. The Belgian mathematical environment, in which probability was present more than in many other countries at the same time appears to have been favorable but also the fact that Mansion, a declared and militant Catholic, found in probability a source of reflection about determinism and randomness in the context of the “modernist crisis” in the Church. Mansion’s activity developed on the background of the scholar wars and the foundation of Catholic institutions such as the Institute for philosophy in Louvain, of the consolidation of mathematical education in Belgium as well as of a new interest for probabilistic results in science. -
PIRENNE EN FREDERICQ Over Historiografische Ambities Omstreeks 1900
PIRENNE EN FREDERICQ Over historiografische ambities omstreeks 1900 Jo Tollebeek Henri Pirenne en Paul Fredericq hebben elkaar veertig jaar lang van zeer nabij gekend. 1 Hun beider academische carriere startte haast gelijktijdig. Fredericq werd, na een loopbaan als leraar, in 1879 op amper negentwintigjarige leeftijd buitengewoon (vanaf 1882 gewoon) hoogleraar aan de Luikse Rijksuniversiteit, waar hij onder meer met het onderwijs in de Nederlandse letterkunde, de hedendaagse geschiedenis en de geschiedenis van Belgie werd belast en waar hij zijn oude studievriend Godefroid Kurth opnieuw vervoegde.2 Onder zijn studenten bevond zich ook de twaalf jaar jongere Pirenne, die in 1880 in Luik arriveerde.3 In 1883 werd Fredericq benoemd in Gent, opnieuw voor een com binatie van literair-historische en historische vakken.4 Nog eens twee jaar later startte de carriere van Pirenne in Luik, waar hem in 1885 het onderwijs in de paleografie en de oorkondenleer werd toegewezen. Een jaar lateral vervoegde hij Fredericq in Gent, eerst als buitengewoon, vanaf 1889 als gewoon hoogle raar. Dat gebeurde overigens met de steun van Fredericq, maar ging ook gepaard met een conflict tussen heiden over de verdeling van de leeropdrach ten.5 Zo hadden in amper achtjaar tijd, tussen 1879 en 1886, zowel Fredericq als Pirenne de zo begeerde universitaire positie gekregen, in beide gevallen eerst in Luik, daarna in Gent.

Henri Pirenne
bmgn - Low Countries Historical Review | Volume 131-4 (2016) | pp. 71-92 Henri Pirenne Historian and Man of the World sarah keymeulen 71 Henri Pirenne (1862-1935) is generally recognised as one of the most influential European historians of the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century. The combination of his scholarly activity with the social mission that he set himself earned him an extraordinarily successful career and a double reputation: at least in Belgium, he was regarded not only as a ‘father of history’, but also as great citizen. Although his influence was unmistakably large, there is no consensus about the existence or the nature of a ‘Pirennian persona’. He combined the ideal collection of skills, values and standards required of historians with very specific personal characteristics. At the same time he was inextricably linked to a certain era and a certain Belgium that died with him. Pirenne therefore, did not so much represent a new type of scientific persona as the prestige of an idealised, long-vanished Belgium and its corresponding academic culture. Henri Pirenne. Historicus en man van de wereld Henri Pirenne (1862-1935) wordt beschouwd als één van de meest invloedrijke Europese geschiedschrijvers van de laatnegentiende en vroegtwintigste eeuw. Het verband tussen zijn wetenschappelijke activiteit en de maatschappelijke taak die hij voor zichzelf zag weggelegd, leverde hem een uitzonderlijk succesvolle carrière en een dubbele reputatie op. Pirenne staat, althans in België, immers niet alleen geboekstaafd als een ‘vader van de geschiedenis’, maar ook als een groot staatsburger. Hoewel de invloed van Pirenne onmiskenbaar groot is geweest, is er geen consensus over het bestaan of de aard van een ‘Pirenniaanse persona’. -
First Thesis: the Construction of Pirenne As a Prominent Historian and As
“CECI N'EST PAS UN HISTORIEN”. CONSTRUCTION AND DECONSTRUCTION OF HENRI PIRENNE Walter Prevenier Ghent University The first ambition of this article is to find out which type of professional approach and which form of socializing Henri Pirenne was supposed to have constructed in order to become one of the greatest scientists of his generation and a succesfull societyman. My second question is: did he himself, or did his contemporaries, construct that icon? First thesis: the construction of Pirenne as a prominent historian and as the “founding father” of the Ghent historical school is a perfect example of a succesfull mythologization The American historian Gray Boyce (1940, 449-64), from Berkeley, a student of Pirenne in the 1920’s, conferred the paternity of the Ghent school international brilliance in his study on “The Legacy of Henri Pirenne” from 1941. In fact he corroborated a format and an image that had been constructed by Pirenne’s students and colleagues in the “laudationes” on occasion of each of the honorary meetings, from 1926 on1. A strong symptom of the aim of defining Pirenne as their iconic father is the collective oath by all his alumni at Pirenne’s funeral in 1935 to prepare a “liber alumnorum” and two solid volumes of “hommages” and memories2, but, even more importantly, to reject firmly the edition of a similar “liber” for themselves in the future, a decision that most of these alumni indeed respected. Hans Van Werveke, however, remembered in 1966 that Pirenne’s paternity of the Ghent school was not the original concept. In the years 1880 it was a common opinion that Paul Fredericq had the ambition to become the numero uno in 1 Mélanges d'histoire offerts à Henri Pirenne (1926). -

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Around 1900, the humanities underwent a metamorphosis which led to the emergence of modern disciplines. This transformation was accompanied by another process, the building of scientific communities. The central question addressed in this essay was how these new disciplinary com- munities in the humanities were strengthened by commemorative practices. Those practices could be highly diverse, ranging from the dedication of a book and the circulation and collection of photographs to the organisation of tribute events, attending of funerals and writing of obituaries. The forms that these practices could take were mapped out in this essay using material drawn from the archives of three prominent (literary) historians from Belgium and the Netherlands: Paul Fredericq, Robert Fruin and Jan te Winkel.

De Joden in Antwerpen Na De Bevrijding (1944-1945)
JODEN IN BELGIË / JUIFS EN BELGIQUE HET LEVEN MOET DOORGAAN De joden in Antwerpen na de bevrijding (1944-1945) VEERLE VANDEN DAELEN * OP HET EINDE VAN DE OORLOG VERKLAARDE DE DUITSE BEZETTER ANTWERPEN ‘JUDENREIN’. HISTORICUS LIEVEN SAERENS WEES IN ZIJN STUDIE VREEMDELINGEN IN EEN WERELDSTAD OP HET ALGEMENE ANTISEMITISCHE KLIMAAT DAT REEDS IN DE JAREN 1930 IN ANTWERPEN DE KOP OPSTAK. MEER NOG DAN IN ANDERE BELGISCHE STEDEN WERD TIJDENS DE BEZETTING DE JOODSE BEVOLKING IN ANTWERPEN SLACHTOFFER VAN DE JODENVERVOLGING EN JODENUITROEIING, MEDE DOOR DE LAKSE HOUDING VAN DE LOKALE OVERHEDEN. DESONDANKS KWAM AL IN HET EERSTE JAAR NA DE BEVRIJDING HET JOODS LEVEN IN DE SCHELDESTAD OPNIEUW OP GANG. IN DEZE BIJDRAGE STAAN DE AFHANDELING VAN DE PRAKTISCHE EN JURIDISCHE GEVOLGEN VAN DE OORLOG EN DE PRILLE HEROPBOUW VAN JOODS LEVEN IN HET ONMIDDELLIJK NAOORLOGSE ANTWERPEN CENTRAAL. I. Inleiding chrijven over ‘de heropbouw van de joodse gemeenschap in Antwerpen na de Tweede SWereldoorlog’ verdient enige nuancering. Vooreerst was de meerderheid van de vooroorlogse joodse bevolking van Antwerpen slachtoffer van de judeocide geworden en bestond een groot deel van de naoorlogse Antwerpse joodse bevolking uit nieuw- komers. Bepaalde structuren werden heropgericht, maar andere waren dan weer nieuw. In die zin is het niet evident om van ‘heropbouw’ te spreken. Achter de oppervlakkige structurele continuïteit ging een veel complexere realiteit schuil. Ook de term ‘de joodse gemeenschap’ is problematisch. Dé joodse gemeenschap bestaat niet. Binnen de joodse gemeenschap doorkruisen verschillende tegenstellingen elkaar : religieus, niet-religieus en a-religieus, zionistisch, anti-zionistisch en a-zionistisch, links-georiënteerd en rechts- georiënteerd. Over de joodse gemeenschap in Antwerpen werd tot dusver geen grondig historisch onderzoek verricht.
