In order to boost the readership of his bi-weekly Leeuwarder Courant (1752–), Ferwerda made use of Knoop’s expertise as a handbook-writer. He employed Knoop to write a short tract: the Kort Onderwys, hoedanig men de Couranten best lezen en gebruiken kan (Brief education, on how one can best read and use newspapers). This was a small guide which praised the virtues of reading a newspaper: it argued that any individual would improve their standing, knowledge and education through the regular consumption of a newspaper.3 Towards the end of his handbook, Knoop also touched on the many benefits of newspaper advertising: The newspaper not only serves to highlight news and reports of foreign occurrences, but also to notify the inhabitants of a country or pr ovince … of public affairs which could be of interest to many sorts of people, and who would, without newspapers, not be aware of these things … such as advertisements or notifications for the sale or rent of dwellings, houses, fields, farms, gardens, cows, oxen, horses, sheep, books, &c., prices of grain, bread, butter, cheese, meat, bacon and a hundred other things which concern general society or the communality, and which are 1 The Short Title Catalogue Netherlands (http://picarta.pica.nl, accessed 26 April 2017) records 40 editions under his name between 1744 and 1790.

  • The Volcanic Foundation of Dutch Architecture: Use of Rhenish Tuff and Trass in the Netherlands in the Past Two Millennia
    The volcanic foundation of Dutch architecture: Use of Rhenish tuff and trass in the Netherlands in the past two millennia Timo G. Nijland 1, Rob P.J. van Hees 1,2 1 TNO, PO Box 49, 2600 AA Delft, the Netherlands 2 Faculty of Architecture, Delft University of Technology, Delft, the Netherlands Occasionally, a profound but distant connection between volcano and culture exists. This is the case between the volcanic Eifel region in Germany and historic construction in the Netherlands, with the river Rhine as physical and enabling connection. Volcanic tuff from the Eifel comprises a significant amount of the building mass in Dutch built heritage. Tuffs from the Laacher See volcano have been imported and used during Roman occupation (hence called Römer tuff). It was the dominant dimension stone when construction in stone revived from the 10th century onwards, becoming the visual mark of Romanesque architecture in the Netherlands. Römer tuff gradually disappeared from the market from the 12th century onwards. Early 15th century, Weiberner tuff from the Riedener caldera, was introduced for fine sculptures and cladding; it disappears from use in about a century. Late 19th century, this tuff is reintroduced, both for restoration and for new buildings. In this period, Ettringer tuff, also from the Riedener caldera, is introduced for the first time. Ground Römer tuff (Rhenish trass) was used as a pozzolanic addition to lime mortars, enabling the hydraulic engineering works in masonry that facilitated life and economics in the Dutch delta for centuries. Key words: Tuff, trass, Eifel, the Netherlands, natural stone 1 Introduction Volcanic tuffs have been used as building stone in many countries over the world.

  • 1 Q&A Woondeal Regio Arnhem-Nijmegen 1) Wat Is De
    Q&A Woondeal regio Arnhem-Nijmegen 1) Wat is de Woondeal? De Woondeal is een set afspraken tussen het Rijk, provincie Gelderland, de gemeenten Nijmegen en Arnhem en de regio Arnhem-Nijmegen. In een Woondeal gaan zij een langjarige samenwerking aan voor meer woningen, de aanpak van excessen op de woningmarkt en het verbeteren van de leefbaarheid in de wijken. In de Woondeal worden locaties benoemd waar versneld woningen gebouwd worden en er staan gebieden in die in gezamenlijkheid worden aangepakt. 2) Hoeveel van die deals zijn er en waar? Dit is de zesde Woondeal. De andere vijf deals heeft het Rijk gesloten met de gemeente Groningen, de regio Eindhoven, de regio Amsterdam, Utrecht en de zuidelijke randstad. 3) Welke partijen werken samen? Het Rijk, regio Arnhem-Nijmegen, provincie Gelderland, gemeente Nijmegen en gemeente Arnhem. 4) Waarom is er een Woondeal voor Arnhem en Nijmegen? Landelijk loopt het tekort aan woningen op. Het woningtekort in de regio Arnhem-Nijmegen scoort hoog. Nijmegen staat in de landelijke top 3. Daarnaast zijn er grootstedelijke sociaaleconomische en binnenstedelijke opgaven die vragen om een gezamenlijke aanpak en inzet van instrumenten. 5) Wat levert een Woondeal concreet op voor de regio? - Groei en woningbouwopgaven worden gekoppeld aan opgaven op het gebied van betaalbaarheid, groen/circulariteit, bereikbaarheid, leefbaarheid en doelgroep specifieke afspraken; - Een meerjarige samenwerking op diverse terreinen (expertise, regelgeving, financiële middelen) tussen de overheden in partnerschap met woningcorporaties, marktpartijen en maatschappelijke instellingen; - Er is € 1 miljoen (€ 750.000 van het Rijk en €250.000 van de provincie Gelderland) beschikbaar om de afspraken verder uit te werken; - De gehele regio een hogere korting op de verhuurdersheffing bij nieuwbouw door woningcorporaties (€ 25.000 i.p.v.

  • The Dutch Revolution of 1795 and the History of Republicanism Wyger RE
    Much in Little Revisited: The Dutch Revolution of 1795 and the History of Republicanism Wyger R.E. Velema, Department of History, University of Amsterdam Paper prepared for the conference ‘The Republican Tradition: From the Hanseatic League to the Era of the Enlightenment’, European University at St. Petersburg, December 7-9, 2012 Not to be quoted or cited without permission from the author It is more than half a century ago that R.R. Palmer, who was soon to become famous with his magisterial work The Age of the Democratic Revolution, introduced an international scholarly audience to the Dutch revolution of 1795, also known as the Batavian revolution. In his pioneering article ‘Much in Little: the Dutch Revolution of 1795’, he pointed out that the fall of the Dutch ancien régime and the revolutionary transformation of the Netherlands that followed this downfall could best be understood as part of an international and interlinked series of revolutionary events.1 On a small scale, the Batavian revolution therefore could serve to ‘illuminate the whole complex of war and revolution which then gripped the Western world’.2 As he made abundantly clear in the title of his later magnum opus, Palmer had a relatively simple and straightforward view of the struggles that tore the Western world of the late eighteenth century apart. Just as democracy had been at issue in the Dutch revolution of 1795, the whole European and American world of the final decades of the century of Enlightenment saw the rise of a new and historically unprecedented democratic opposition against all sorts of aristocratic ‘constituted bodies’.

  • Stapel & De Vries
    Leydis, Pauli, and Berchen Revisited Collective History Writing in the Low Countries in the Late Fifteenth Century* Rombert Stapel & Jenine de Vries International Institute of Social History & Durham University Abstract This article focuses on a generation of chroniclers from the Low Countries operating at the intersection of urban and clerical environments and how they worked together to produce new historiographical texts. At the heart are the writings of three of the most productive and well-known historiographers of this generation: Johannes a Leydis, Theodericus Pauli and Willem van Berchen. The interdependency of a specific part of their body of work, namely their Chronicles of Holland, will be studied closely. This will lead to a new proposal for the complex relationship between these and other related contemporary texts. From this the contours emerge of a community of writers, reaching much further than these three alone, which shared a common interest in historiography and exchanged texts, ideas and manuscripts. In each of their texts, the influence of this exchange is tangible, exhibiting the collaborative nature of their historical writings, rarely detected in the Middle Ages. Introduction History writing can be a lonely profession. The image comes to mind of a secluded writer, alone with only a library and a pen, working through a new creation. Medieval portrayals of writers almost always reinforce this notion. If one googles pictures of ‘medieval writer’ or ‘medieval scribe’, a vast array of analogous miniatures emerges of individuals sitting alone * We would like to thank our colleagues at both Leiden University and Durham University, in particular Hans Mol, Robert Stein, and Graeme Small, as well as the anonymous reviewers for their help in improving earlier drafts of this paper.

  • Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 Hugh Dunthorne Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-83747-7 - Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 Hugh Dunthorne Frontmatter More information Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 England’s response to the Revolt of the Netherlands (1568–1648) has been studied hitherto mainly in terms of government policy, yet the Dutch struggle with Habsburg Spain affected a much wider commu- nity than just the English political elite. It attracted attention across Britain and drew not just statesmen and diplomats but also soldiers, merchants, religious refugees, journalists, travellers and students into the confl ict. Hugh Dunthorne draws on pamphlet literature to reveal how British contemporaries viewed the progress of their near neigh- bours’ rebellion, and assesses the lasting impact which the Revolt and the rise of the Dutch Republic had on Britain’s domestic history. The book explores affi nities between the Dutch Revolt and the British civil wars of the seventeenth century – the fi rst major challenges to royal authority in modern times – showing how much Britain’s chang- ing commercial, religious and political culture owed to the country’s involvement with events across the North Sea. HUGH DUNTHORNE specializes in the history of the early modern period, the Dutch revolt and the Dutch republic and empire, the his- tory of war, and the Enlightenment. He was formerly Senior Lecturer in History at Swansea University, and his previous publications include The Enlightenment (1991) and The Historical Imagination in Nineteenth-Century Britain and the Low Countries

A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Ingrid Frederika DeSanto 2018 ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Righteous Citizens: The Lynching of Johan and Cornelis DeWitt, The Hague, Collective Violence, and the Myth of Tolerance in the Dutch Golden Age, 1650-1672 by Ingrid Frederika DeSanto Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles Professor Margaret C Jacob, Chair In The Hague, on August 20 th , 1672, the Grand Pensionary of Holland, Johan DeWitt and his brother Cornelis DeWitt were publicly killed, their bodies mutilated and hanged by the populace of the city. This dissertation argues that this massacre remains such an unique event in Dutch history, that it needs thorough investigation. Historians have focused on short-term political causes for the eruption of violence on the brothers’ fatal day. This work contributes to the existing historiography by uncovering more long-term political and social undercurrents in Dutch society. In doing so, issues that may have been overlooked previously are taken into consideration as well.
