  • Het Fenomeen “Poeske” Scherens
    KATHOLIEKE UNIVERSITEIT LEUVEN FACULTEIT LETTEREN MASTER IN DE GESCHIEDENIS Het fenomeen “Poeske” Scherens Promotor Masterproef Prof. dr. D. VANYSACKER ingediend door HERPELINCK FRAN Leuven 2010-2011 Voorwoord Alsof hij soms even tot leven kwam, in een literaire wielerflits. Alsof hij soms even aan de einder voorbijvloog, in een welgemikte ‘kattensprong’. Jef “Poeske” Scherens is al even niet meer onder ons, maar zijn sportieve adem, evenals de ziel van zijn tijdsperiode, zijn vervat in honderden documenten, in archieven overal te lande, in privé-collecties, in oude kranten en tijdschriften. Het afgelopen jaar was er een van puzzelwerk. Puzzelstukjes vinden, was geen probleem. Punt was te kijken welk stukje het meest authentiek was. Vele stukjes blonken immers buitensporig fel. Jef “Poeske” Scherens was een overstijgende persoonlijkheid, die zowel op als naast de fiets wist te fascineren. Als sprintende baanwielrenner kende hij in de periode tussen de Twee Wereldoorlogen, het interbellum van de twintigste eeuw, veruit zijn gelijke niet. Scherens was als ‘fenomeen’ een ‘idool’, die supporters deed juichen, journalisten in de pen deed kruipen en lyrische reacties aan hen ontlokte. In een fervente poging op zoek te gaan naar een kern van waarheid en tijdsgevoel, was het vaak noodzakelijk mezelf te berispen, wanneer enthousiasme primeerde op kritische zin. Het leven van Jef Scherens rolt zich dan ook uit als een lofdicht, dat doorheen de jaren haast niet aan charme heeft ingeboet. Na een intensieve kennismaking met “Poeske”, wielerheld en volksfiguur, was ik anderzijds terdege verwonderd . De laatste decennia kenden wielerbelangstelling en ‘koersliteratuur’ een enorme hausse . Kronieken, biografieën en poëtische werken worden gekleurd door noeste renners en wervelende persoonlijkheden - al kan er sprake zijn van een chronologische en pragmatische richtlijn.

Something felt vaguely familiar about Adorno’s pessimism, Marcuse’s radical critique of the establishment and common sense, and especially Fromm’s socialist humanism and his emphasis on love. While I did not know why then, I now believe it was in part because their writings weren’t dissimilar to the values my parents instilled in me

Strandquist © 2012 Jason L. Strandquist Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2012 ii The dissertation of Jason L. Strandquist was reviewed and approved* by the following: R. Po-chia Hsia Edwin Earle Sparks Professor of History Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee A. Gregg Roeber Professor of Early Modern History and Religious Studies Daniel C. Beaver Associate Professor of History Charlotte M. Houghton Associate Professor of Art History Michael Kulikowski Professor of History and Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies Head, Department of History and Program in Religious Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT The following study suggests that social change in seventeenth-century German cities cannot be understood apart from community religious identity. By reconstructing the overlapping crises of the seventeenth century as they occurred in Lübeck, the capital city of the Hanseatic League, I argue that structural crisis alone did not cause permanent changes in the ordering of urban politics and religious life inherited from the late middle ages and Reformation. In fact, the “Little Ice Age” (c. 1570-1630) and Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648) elicited very different responses from the city’s Lutheran pastors and oligarchic magistrates. In contrast to better-studied cities like Augsburg and Frankfurt, dramatic change came to Lübeck only when guildsmen mounted a series of overlapping attacks on elite property and religious non-conformists in the 1660s.

  • Les Chênes De 1936
    RÉCITS / HISTOIRES Les chênes de 1936 J’avais lu cet article sur slate.fr alors que je faisais des recherches sur cet étrange chêne au port tout malmené que j’avais observé l’été précédent lors de ma visite du stade olympique de Berlin. Un chêne dont la forme était tordue et un peu laide, à force, sans doute, d’avoir été rabattu et étêté dans le but de le rajeunir. Les feuilles repoussaient directement en touffe sur les gros moignons de bois, comme une mauvaise coupe de cheveux, dont on espérait que la repousse ne soit pas trop longue… Par Armande Jammes 18 DÉCEMBRE 2017 Le chêne, avais-je appris, était devenu un symbole de l’Alle- magne pendant les guerres napoléoniennes. Lors de la const- ruction en 1913 du premier stade olympique de Berlin en 1913 (pour des jeux qui n’eurent jamais lieu) on en avait plan- té un que l’on avait baptisé Chêne de Von Podbielski en l’hon- neur d’un homme Viktor Von Podbielski qui avait servi la cause du sport allemand. À la construction du nouveau stade en 1936, on avait apparemment conservé l’un des arbres sans être sûr que ce fut le bon. Son positionnement juste à droite après le passage des grilles était un peu étrange au sein de ce lieu dont le dessin était entièrement maîtrisé. Le comité olym- pique avait décidé que chaque vainqueur recevrait en plus de sa médaille, une couronne de feuilles de chêne, ainsi qu’un jeune plant d’un an. L’idée venait, disait-on, d’un pépiniériste allemand qui peut-être voyait là une bonne occasion de Naoto Tajima, Jesse Owens, Lutz Long.
