  • The Dutch & Swedes on the Delaware
    THE DUTCH & SWEDES ON THE DELAWARE 1609-64 BY CHRISTOPHER WARD THE DUTCH & SWEDES on the DELAWARE 1609-64 By CHRISTOPHER WARD UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA PRESS PHILADELPHIA MCMNXX COPYRIGHT 1930, BY CHRISTOPHER WARD LONDON HUMPHREY MILFORD : OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA JOHAN PRINTZ, Governor of New Sweden,1643-53 PAINTING BY N. C. WYETH TO THE MEMORY OF MY GRANDFATHERS, CHRISTOPHER L. WARD, ESQ PRESIDENT OF THE BRADFORD COUNTY (PA.) HISTORICAL SOCIETY, AND LEWIS P. BUSH, M.D., PRESIDENT OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF DELAWARE, THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED PREFACE The stories of the early settlements of the English in New England, of the Dutch in New York and of the English in Maryland and Virginia have been told again and again. But, between these more northern and more southern lands, there lies a great territory stretching along both shores of Delaware River and Bay, whose earliest history has been neglected. In the common estimation of the general reader, the beginnings of civilization in this middle region are credited to William Penn and his English Quakers. Yet, for nearly fifty years before Penn came, there had been white men settled along the River's shores. When he came, he found farms, towns, forts, churches, schools, courts of law already in being in his newly acquired possessions. Small credit has been given to those who laid these foundations, the Swedes and the Dutch, whom the English superseded. The names of Winthrop, Stuyvesant, Calvert and Berkeley are familiar to many. Who knows the name of Johan Printz, the Swedish governor, who for ten years pioneered in this wilderness? Yet, in picturesqueness of personality, in force of character, in administrative ability and in actual accomplishment, within the limits of the resources granted him, Printz is the fit companion of these other so widely acclaimed men.

KURT PIEHLER Kurt Piehler: This is an interview with Bob Kennedy on July 14, 1994 with Kurt Piehler. I guess I would like to begin by talking about your parents and ... the first question I have ... [has to do with your] father's job with the telephone companies. It seems to have been influential in your life. How did he end up with New York Telephone or its predecessor? Bob Kennedy: I really don't know. The only thing I know is that it seemed to me that ever since I was a very small boy we were a telephone family.

The Kröller-Müller Museum is named after Helene Kröller-Müller (1869-1939) who dreamt of creating a ‘museum-home’. This dream came true in 1938 when the Rijksmuseum Kröller-Müller opened its doors with Helene as its first director. Helene began collecting art around 1905. The idea arose when she and her daughter enrolled in a course in art appreciation that was taught by H.P. Bremmer, an educator in the arts. Inspired by his lessons, she began collecting art herself. In 1907 she made her first purchase: ‘Train in Landscape’, by Paul Gabriel. Helene Kröller-Müller’s collection grew rapidly. After a few years she was the owner of the largest private Van Gogh collection in the world (not counting that of the Van Gogh family itself).

Dat klinkt duister en kil en riekt naar spinnenwebben en vochtig beschimmelde hoekjes. Maar dat pakt anders uit. Deze uitgave, samengesteld uit twaalf delen, biedt de meer dan gemiddeld geïnteresseerde, verhelderende kaartjes, duidelijke teksten en foto’s van de historisch- geografische regio’s van Nederland. Zo geeft het een compleet beeld van Nederland anno toen, nu en de tijd die daar tussen zit. De hoofdstukken over de deelgebieden/regio’s schetsen in het kort een karakteristiek per gebied. De cultuurhistorische blikvangers worden gepresenteerd. Voor de fijnproevers volgt hierna een nadere uiteenzetting. De ontwikkeling van het landschap, de bodem en het reliëf, en de bewoningsgeschiedenis worden in beeld gebracht. Het gaat over de ligging van dorpen en steden, de verkavelingsvormen in het agrarisch land, de loop van wegen, kanalen en spoorlijnen, dijkenpatronen, waterlopen, defensielinies met fortificaties.

Between ;4;< and ;4=-, despite having remained Catholic over a remarkably long period, it had broken with the central order in Germany, becoming an institution for Reformed, married noblemen. The ad - mission requirements were four noble quarters and membership of the Reformed church. In this way, the order fitted seamlessly within the structures of the Dutch Republic. In the revolutionary period after ;JQ<, the order sought to survive by keeping a low profile. In ;V;; Napoleon dissolved the Bailiwick. After the restoration of Dutch independence, this measure was reversed by King William I. In the new kingdom, adherence to the old admission criteria demarcated the old nobility not only from the new aristocracy, but also from the old Catholic nobility in the South. After the rupture of the kingdom in ;VX- and the introduction of the liberal constitution in ;V=V – which introduced a parliamentary system, abolished the rights of the aristocracy and brought equal - ity of religions – the Protestant nobility assumed a leading role in the defence of traditional values.
