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.

  • Enemy, Rival, Frog
    Enemy, Rival, Frog The influence of history on the portrayal of the Dutch in late seventeenth- century English literature BA Thesis Anna Zweers Supervisor: Dr. M. Corporaal Date: 15 June, 2017 Zweers - 1 Abstract: This thesis will look at the way the Dutch are represented in English literature from the Restoration in 1660, taking 1672 as a turning point and looking at texts up to 1685. The focus will be on war, trade and gender, and how Dutch people are portrayed with regards to these three areas. It argues that trade is a theme that is present in all texts written about the Dutch, while the other two themes depend on the subject of the texts. Keywords: seventeenth century, Anglo-Dutch relations, English literature, war, trade, gender Zweers - 2 Contents Introduction ............................................................................................................................................. 3 Chapter 1 – Historical background .......................................................................................................... 7 1.1 – Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 7 1.2 – War & Trade since Restoration .................................................................................................. 7 1.3 – 1672 – 1674 ................................................................................................................................ 9 1.4 – After 1672: War & Trade ........................................................................................................

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.

Several times these conflicts became severe, which led to regime changes. This chapter focuses on the conflict between the Orangists and the Staatsgezinden in 1748. The then recent installation of William IV as the general hereditary stadtholder of the United Provinces had marked the end of the stadtholderless period. William IV was cele- brated by many, but despised by others, and his opponents expressed their discontent in satirical writings. It is argued that the nation’s his- tory was a key theme in the heated debates: to support their political views, both groups essentially created their own version of the nation’s glorious past. Introduction In general, we can distinguish two different views on the history of the Dutch Republic in the early modern period. The first group of historians lays emphasis on consensus and claims that consensus was the driving force behind the Republic’s rise in the seventeenth century.

Stad- Ommen en het kerspel of schoutambt Ommen werden tot een gemeente verenigd. De stad telde destijds 734, het ambt 2118 inwoners (Fi). De beide delen der nieuw gevormde eenheid verschilden ongetwijfeld van karakter. Volgens de toenmalige begrippen droeg de nederzetting Ommen inderdaad het stempel van een stad. Stadsrechten had zij al in 1348 verkregen van de bisschop Otto III, die daarmede ongetwijfeld ook beoogde de overtocht over de Vecht behoorlijk te beschermen (2e*). Oudtijds was de stad ook ommuurd. Zij behoorde tot de z. g. kleine steden van Overijssel. Het stedelijk karakter van Ommen kwam ook tot uiting in de beroepsstructuur. Men vond er een keur van neringdoenden en handwerkslieden, terwijl het aantal dergenen, waarvan het hoofdberoep landbouwer was, zeer gering kon worden genoemd (36).
