This exhibition, as well as the many interviews that took place in the previous years, means for many older citizens, the renewal of their experiences during the Battle with all the resulting hardships. At that time, many, still children, hid in the cellars under their houses. Thereaf­ ter, they had to flee the continuing storm or, after the battle, were forcibly evacuated from the then developed front line North of the Rhine. The initiative for these interviews and the exhibition has been received with great enthusiasm by these participants. From this it appears that not only the veterans who are received each year with regard and respect, but also those who as citizens in the wartime violence, deserve recognition for the events at that time which, through their contributions, are now brought to light.

  • Master Thesis Multinational Villages in the Euroregion Rhine-Waal
    Master Thesis Maarten Goossens S4615646 Radboud University Nijmegen Human Geography: Conflicts, Territories and Identities June 2019 Multinational villages in the Euroregion Rhine-Waal Supervised by: Martin van der Velde And the thing called Europe has become a patchwork of colourful places, and everyone is a stranger as soon as they stick their nose out of their village. There are more strangers than inhabitants in this God blessed continent... Everyone considers their business to be the most important one and no one is planning to sacrifice anything. First of all, to start with, we draw a demarcation line. We split up. We need a boundary. Because we are all for ourselves. But an earth bends under these foolish people, a soil under them and a heaven above them. The borders run criss-cross Europe. In the long term, however, no one can separate people - not borders and not soldiers - if they just don't want to. (Kurt Tuchulsky alias Peter Panter, Berliner Volkszeitung, 27-06-1920) ii Preface The last few months I crossed the Dutch-German border on a daily basis. I did so in a bus, filled with school children speaking Dutch one moment, German the other as if it were one and the same language for them. Often with international students and other people from all over the world making their way from the one side of the border to the other. On my daily trip from Nijmegen to Kleve I sometimes forgot where I was, or fell asleep, and then suddenly noticed I already had crossed the border.

  • N839; Ontwerp Verkeersbesluit Diverse Verkeersmaatregelen Tussen Huissen En Bemmel in De Gemeente Lingewaard
    Nr. 1274 21 februari PROVINCIAAL BLAD 2019 Officiële uitgave van de provincie Gelderland N839; ontwerp verkeersbesluit diverse verkeersmaatregelen tussen Huissen en Bemmel in de gemeente Lingewaard ONTWERP VERKEERSBESLUIT ZAAKNUMMER 2018-013286, D.D. 14 februari 2019 Gedeputeerde Staten van Gelderland zijn van plan een verkeersbesluit te nemen voor diverse verkeersmaatregelen op de provinciale weg N839 tussen Huissen en Bemmel in de gemeente Lingewaard in het kader van de doortrekking van de A15. Aanleiding De provinciale weg N839 vormt de verbinding tussen Huissen en Bemmel en ontsluit deze kernen en het omliggende gebied naar het hoofdwegennet (A15, A325). In de wegennetvisie van de provincie Gelderland is de N839 opgenomen als gebiedsontsluitingsweg met een maximumsnelheid van 80 kilometer per uur. Het groeiende verkeer in de regio, onder andere door de geplande doortrekking van de A15, zorgt ervoor dat extra capaciteit nodig is om het verkeer naar het hoofdwegennet op een vlotte en veilige manier af te kunnen wikkelen. Dit is aanleiding om de N839 Huissen-Bemmel (Karstraat / Van Elkweg) aan te passen tussen de Lingewal (kilometer 3,40) en de Van Nispenlaan (kilometer 5,70). Het kruispunt N839 – Baalsestraat – parallelweg Karstraat aan de noordzijde van de A15 (kilometer 3,99) wordt aangepast en wordt geregeld door middel van een verkeersregelinstallatie. Nadat het (brom- )fietspad aan de oostzijde van de N839 is opgeheven wordt de naam van de Baalsestraat, die uitkomt op het kruispunt, gewijzigd in Linie. Ten noorden van deze kruising houdt de weg één rijstrook per rijrichting. Ten zuiden van deze kruising krijgt de weg extra rijstroken en er komt een nieuw kruispunt met verkeerslichten voor de ontsluiting van het bedrijventerrein Houtakker II (genaamd De Houtakker) en de aansluiting op de Baalsestraat (kilometer 4,87).

  • From the Routine of War to the Chaos of Peace: First
    FROM THE ROUTINE OF WAR TO THE CHAOS OF PEACE: FIRST CANADIAN ARMY’S TRANSITION TO PEACETIME OPERATIONS – APRIL 23rd TO MAY 31st 1945 by Joseph Boates Bachelor of Arts in History, Royal Military College of Canada, 2005 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master’s of History in the Graduate Academic Unit of History Supervisor: Lee Windsor, Ph.D., Gregg Centre, History Examining Board: Lisa Todd, Ph.D., History, Chair Lee Windsor, Ph.D., History Cindy Brown, Ph.D., History David Hofmann, Ph.D., Sociology This thesis is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK May, 2020 ©Joseph Boates, 2020 ABSTRACT This project explores the dynamic shift from combat to stability-building operations made by Canadian soldiers in the Netherlands at the end of the Second World War. This thesis is a comparative investigation of the experiences of two Canadian infantry brigades and one armoured brigade. The findings highlight similarities and differences between each brigade as they shifted from combat to peacetime roles depending on their trade specialty and geographical location. These case studies bring to light how the same war ended in different ways, creating unique local dynamics for Canadian Army interaction with the defeated German Army, the Dutch population which had been subjugated for five years, and efforts to maintain the morale of Canadian soldiers between the end of hostilities and a time when they could go home. These situations and experiences demonstrate that the same war ended not with the stroke of a pen, but at different times and under very different circumstances throughout First Canadian Army’s area of responsibility in the Netherlands in 1945.

    * omslag Dutch Ships in Tropical:DEF 18-08-09 13:30 Pagina 1 dutch ships in tropical waters robert parthesius The end of the 16th century saw Dutch expansion in Asia, as the Dutch East India Company (the VOC) was fast becoming an Asian power, both political and economic. By 1669, the VOC was the richest private company the world had ever seen. This landmark study looks at perhaps the most important tool in the Company’ trading – its ships. In order to reconstruct the complete shipping activities of the VOC, the author created a unique database of the ships’ movements, including frigates and other, hitherto ignored, smaller vessels. Parthesius’s research into the routes and the types of ships in the service of the VOC proves that it was precisely the wide range of types and sizes of vessels that gave the Company the ability to sail – and continue its profitable trade – the year round. Furthermore, it appears that the VOC commanded at least twice the number of ships than earlier historians have ascertained. Combining the best of maritime and social history, this book will change our understanding of the commercial dynamics of the most successful economic organization of the period. robert parthesius Robert Parthesius is a naval historian and director of the Centre for International Heritage Activities in Leiden. dutch ships in amsterdam tropical waters studies in the dutch golden age The Development of 978 90 5356 517 9 the Dutch East India Company (voc) Amsterdam University Press Shipping Network in Asia www.aup.nl dissertation 1595-1660 Amsterdam University Press Dutch Ships in Tropical Waters Dutch Ships in Tropical Waters The development of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) shipping network in Asia - Robert Parthesius Founded in as part of the Faculty of Humanities of the University of Amsterdam (UvA), the Amsterdam Centre for the Study of the Golden Age (Amsterdams Centrum voor de Studie van de Gouden Eeuw) aims to promote the history and culture of the Dutch Republic during the ‘long’ seventeenth century (c.
