Delft's History Revisited
Delft’s history revisited Semantic Web applications in the cultural heritage domain Martijn van Egdom Delft’s history revisited THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in COMPUTER SCIENCE by Martijn van Egdom born in Rhenen Web Information Systems Department of Software Technology Faculty EEMCS, Delft University of Technol- Erfgoed Delft en Omstreken ogy Schoolstraat 7 Delft, the Netherlands Delft, the Netherlands www.wis.ewi.tudelft.nl www.erfgoed-delft.nl c 2012 Martijn van Egdom.

Delft’s history revisited Author: Martijn van Egdom Student id: 1174444 Email: [email protected] Abstract While at one side there is an ever increasing movement within cultural heritage organizations to offer public access to their collection-data using the Web, on the other the Semantic Web, fueled by ongoing research, is growing up to be a mature and successful addition to the Web. Nowadays, these two sides are join- ing forces, combining the large collections of mostly public data of the cultural heritage institutions with the revolutionary methods and techniques developed by the Semantic Web researchers. This thesis is the result of this rather symbiotic collaboration, providing mul- tiple contributions for both the side of the cultural heritage institutions as well as the side of the Semantic Web researchers. Of special note are: the descrip- tion of search techniques currently applied by cultural heritage organizations on their published data; the discussion of a generic method to transform legacy data to linked data, including a detailed analysis of each step of the process; and the development of a prototype of a faceted browser which utilizes the transformed data. -
Prague Papers on International Relations
The Thököly Uprising in Hungary and the Timing of the Nine Years’ War and the Glorious Revolution1 György Borus2 ABSTRACT The Glorious Revolution of 1688–89 has been regarded primarily as an episode in English domestic politics and has rarely been considered as a European event. Since the tercentenary of the Revolu- tion, a lot has been done to correct this picture. Now it is clear, for example, that without Prince Wil- liam’s powerful military intervention, which was carried out with the full support of the States Gen- eral of the United Provinces, the Revolution would have been impossible. It should also be pointed out, however, that if William had succeeded in organising a powerful anti-French alliance during the early 1680s, he may not have intervened in England at the end of the decade. The timing and cir- cumstances of William’s intervention can only be understood within the context of European events, which should not be confined to Western Europe. This article seeks to explain the interrelationships between the parallel events of the 1680s in the eastern and western parts of the Continent. It argues that the Thököly Uprising played a major part in frustrating William’s plans of organising a power- ful anti-French coalition and delayed the Nine Years’ War (King William’s War) against France un- til 1688. KEYWORDS 1680s; Louis XIV; William of Orange; Count Imre Thököly; Ottoman Empire; Nine Years’ War; Glo- rious Revolution INTRODUCTION The Glorious Revolution of 1688–89 was one of the greatest turning-points in world history. The dethroning of the Catholic James II (1685–88) by his own nephew and son-in-law, William of Orange, the leading political figure of the United Provinces, was to have far-reaching consequences not only for Britain but the whole of West- ern Europe as well. -

Using the Dutch Website Wiewaswie Fritz Juengling, PhD, AG® [email protected] Wiewaswie is a free, collective database drawn from numerous provincial, regional, and city archives in the Netherlands and some of its former territories; it includes information about 85 million persons from many types of records. The most important record types for beginning researchers include baptism, birth, marriage, death, and burial records. These records cover the period from the 17th to the 20th centuries. However, not all records from this period are included. A critical date for Dutch research is 1811, when civil registration was imposed on the Netherlands by the French. Before that time, church records were the primary source of records, although a few areas had already begun civil registration. Wiewaswie is available only in Dutch; there is no English interface. Therefore, researchers must know some Dutch terms. (See the wordlist at the end of this handout.) Dutch Names Dutch names are characterized by a wide variety of items that might be unfamiliar to some researchers. One of the most common is an additional element called a tussenvoegsel (or prefix). For example, in the name Dick Van Dyke, ”van” is the tussenvoegsel. When searching in Dutch websites, be aware that there is a separate search box for the tussenvoegsel in addition to the given name and surname search boxes. The Dutch also sometimes used a patronym, sometimes as a last name, such as in Jan Willems, and sometimes as a middle name, as in Jan Willems Zijlstra. (In these examples, Willems comes from Jan’s father’s name—Willem.) Keep in mind that not everyone had a tussenvoegsel or patronym. -
Going Dutch Finding Families in Online Records of the Netherlands Daniel R
Going Dutch Finding Families in Online Records of the Netherlands Daniel R. Jones, MS, AG® FamilySearch The majority of post-1811 records for the Netherlands have now been indexed; and these indexes are available in multiple places online. Not all records for the Netherlands are indexed Not all indexes are the same; you should consider looking at each website. A note on Dutch names: There are four possible elements: given name, patronymic, tussenvoegsel, and surname. A patronymic is a sort of middle name taken from the father’s given name (i.e. children of Jan would have a patronym of Janse). A tussenvoegsel is an element that is not part of the surname, but is a descriptive element attached to the surname. Example: Jan van Dijk. The tussenvoegsel is van, mean of (literally, Jan of the dike). In the telephone book, Jan van Dijk would be listed under D rather than V. The van is attached to the surname and is lower case. Other tussenvoegsels include de, het, van de, and others. Further reading: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Netherlands_Names,_Personal RECORD TYPES There are two main record types in the Netherlands: Church Records (depending on location, late 1500s to 1811) Church records form the earliest nearly complete listing of vital events (baptism, marriage, and some burial) that occurred in a church. The building block of jurisdictions in the Netherlands is by church parish. These records are handwritten and may be in Dutch or Latin. Early records can be difficult to read. Records were kept after 1811, but most digitally available records and indexes only go to 1811, as their use pales in comparison to civil registration records. -

The European City
Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/22974 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation Author: Olnon, Merlijn Title: “Brough under the law of the land” : the history, demography and geography of crossculturalism in early modern Izmir, and the Köprülü project of 1678 Issue Date: 2014-01-08 The European City In short, among the possessions of the Ottoman dynasty there are two-hundred and sixty populous trading ports. Of these cities importing and exporting cargo, the port of Izmir is the most famous. For in all the world there are eighteen unbelieving [Christian] kings that have befriended the Ottoman dynasty and all their balios [consuls of the Italian city- states] and consuls reside there. And their merchants bring products from all over the face of the earth and goods from all the peoples of the world. Every year a thousand ships come and go to have their goods sold in this city of Izmir. Thus, this place has become a truly shining trading port adorned with bustling quays. And because of these malevolent Frank- ish ships arriving, half the city of Izmir resembles the land of the Franks [Western Eu- rope]. And if someone strikes an unbeliever of rank, doormen and watchmen immediately encircle the man and, without showing any mercy whatsoever, bring him straight before the judge. Whether the judge kills him or the unbelievers, then and there the corpse is lost to the Muslims. On one side, therefore, the place is sinister like Malta and modeled on the land of the Franks. But because of the charm of this city’s light-blue sky there are such attractive tavern-waiters, young monks and unbelieving unripe beauties with their locks let down – as to bring the minds of lovers still further to the same disorder as that of a beauty’s hair.200 Of such qualities are the beauties born of the tavern-keep. -

This military map chronologically details the movements of the troops from one location to another from May 1690 through October 1693. The map also includes an explanation of remarks to navigate where French Troops, Dutch troops and major battle areas are located. It also notes heavily wooded areas. A scale of miles is also included. The map is colored in outline with relief shown pictorially. Franco-Dutch War, (1672–78), the second war of conquest by Louis XIV of France, whose chief aim in the conflict was to establish French possession of the Spanish Netherlands after having forced the Dutch Republic's acquiescence. The Third Anglo-Dutch War (1672–74) formed part of this general war. After having signed (1670) the secret Treat of Dover with England against the Dutch, Louis mounted an invasion of the Dutch Republic in May 1672 that was supported by the British navy. The French were able to quickly occupy three of the seven Dutch provinces, but then the Dutch opened the dikes around Amsterdam, flooding a large area, and their army, under William III of Orange, rallied behind this “Water Line.” By autumn William had begun land operations against the French invaders. -
French Calendars from Louis Xiv to the Revolution
GLORIOUS YEARS: FRENCH CALENDARS FROM LOUIS XIV TO THE REVOLUTION ‘Almanac: a calendar containing all of the days of the year, holidays, the lunar cycle, the signs of the zodiac, and weather forecasts.’ (Dictionnaire de l’Académie Françoise, 1694) The almanacs, or calendars, in this exhibition, were published in Paris in the 17th and 18th centuries, from the reign of Louis XIV to the Revolution. Designed to inform and entertain the public, while glorifying the king, they depict major events, from royal weddings, and births to battles and peace treaties. Louis XIV (1643-1715) used the arts to shape and promote his image, and it was during his reign that almanacs reached their apogee. Around 10 different large-scale calendars were published every year. They were produced and sold by private publishers, but the choice of subject matter and use of complex allegory suggests direct involvement from the royal court. The quality and popularity of the almanacs declined during the 18th century, but the French Revolution of 1789 led to a revival. The Republican Calendar was introduced in 1793, with new months, weeks and days. Calendars were essential tools for establishing this new conception of time and Revolutionary principals. Almanacs were created at speed, involving a team of artists, specialised engravers, poets, printers, and publishers. Printed in the thousands, they were relatively cheap and available to the middle classes. A calendar is essential for everyday life. It is a visual representation of the year, allows future planning, and is a record of events and a memory of the past. But despite their popularity, not many of these almanacs survive today. -
