CATALOGUS DER LICHTBEELDENVEREENIGING CENTRAAL BUREAU VOOR LANTAARNPLATEN 3pUl 23? hoek Handboogstraat AMSTERDAM spreekuren: MAANDAG \ WOENSDAG > 10—1273; 172—5 uur VRIJDAG VOORWOORD Reeds 13 jaar heeft de Vereeniging tot het houden van Voordrachten MET Lichtbeelden gewerkt, haar lantaarnplaten i’ondgezonden over het heele land. En steeds neemt de vraag toe naar lichtbeelden, betrekking hebbende op allerlei onderwerpen. Bijna geen lezing, of men wil ’t gesprokene aan- schouwelijk toelichten en daarvoor zijn lantaarnplaten wel ’t meest geschikt. Ook bij alle takken van onderwijs openbaart zich de behoefte om niet alleen te vertellen, maar ook te laten zien, veel te laten zien, te trachten volken van ’t leven in een indruk mee te geven van vreemde landen en ; vroegere tijden zooals zich dat uitte in kunst, in woning en kleederdrachten, in prent en satyre; te trachten een overzicht te geven van industrieën, van land- en tuinbouw, technische werken en toegepaste sociale wetenschap ; van bouwkunde, sterrekunde; van ’t. leven en de ontwikkeling van dieren en planten; van cultuurgeschiedenis in den ruimsten zin van het woord. De Lichtbeeldenvereeniging heeft nu hare collectie platen belangrijk uit- gebreid en vele platen vergezeld doen gaan van een kort, duidelijk bijschrift met opgave van bronnen. Deze bijschriften zyn in dezen catalogus bijeen- gebracht, die tegen den kostenden prijs verkrijgbaar gesteld is. Ten einde gebruik der lichtbeelden in ruimen kring mogelijk te maken, heeft de Vereeniging besloten de retributie zeer laag te stellen. Voor / 4.— per jaar plus porto’s heen en terug, kan men zich abonneeren en heeft dan ’t recht 10 maal van een platenreeks gebruik te maken. Gebruik in eigen kring is hierbij echter niet geoorloofd. Maar bovendien zijn er zooveel gezinnen, in ’t bezit van een tooverlantaarn, die voor een feestje in eigen kring gaarne wat nieuwe platen zouden ver- tonnen. Laat deze lid worden der Lichtbeeldenvereeniging voor ƒ10.— per jaar; zij steunen dan het door de Vereeniging beoogde doel en kunnen tevens voor eigen gebruik 6 maal een platenreeks aanvragen. (Porto’s heen en terug voor rekening van het lid).

Ricketts and Calvin (1952) noted its occurrence in Coos Bay, Oregon in 1950. Rhithropanopeus harrisii, a common resident of Texas estuaries, has recently expanded its range to freshwater reservoirs in that state (Howells 2001; […]). They have been found in the E.V. Spence, Colorado City, Tradinghouse Creek, Possum Kingdom, and Lake Balmorhea reservoirs. These occurrences are the first records of this species in freshwater inland lakes.” From Fofonoff et al.

  • Centenary of the Zuiderzee Act: a Masterpiece of Engineering
    NEWS Centenary of the Zuiderzee Act: a Masterpiece of Engineering The Dutch Zuiderzee Act came into force exactly 100 years ago today, on 14 June 1918. The Zuiderzee Act signalled the beginning of the works that continue to protect the heart of The Netherlands from the dangers and vagaries of the Zuiderzee, an inlet of the North Sea, to this day. This amazing feat of engineering and spatial planning was a key milestone in The Netherlands’ world-leading reputation for reclaiming land from the sea. Wim van Wegen, content manager at ‘GIM International’, was born, raised and still lives in the Noordoostpolder, one of the various polders that were constructed. He has written an article about the uniqueness of this area of reclaimed land. I was born at the bottom of the sea. Want to fact-check this? Just compare a pre-1940s map of the Netherlands to a more contemporary one. The old map shows an inlet of the North Sea, the Zuiderzee. The new one reveals large parts of the Zuiderzee having been turned into land, actually no longer part of the North Sea. In 1932, a 32km-long dam (the Afsluitdijk) was completed, separating the former Zuiderzee and the North Sea. This part of the sea was turned into a lake, the IJsselmeer (also known as Lake IJssel or Lake Yssel in English). Why 'polder' is a Dutch word The idea behind the construction of the Afsluitdijk was to defend areas against flooding, caused by the force of the open sea. The dam is part of the Zuiderzee Works, a man-made system of dams and dikes, land reclamation and water drainage works.

  • History and Heritage of German Coastal Engineering
    HISTORY AND HERITAGE OF GERMAN COASTAL ENGINEERING Hanz D. Niemeyer, Hartmut Eiben, Hans Rohde Reprint from: Copyright, American Society of Civil Engineers HISTORY AND HERITAGE OF GERMAN COASTAL ENGINEERING Hanz D. Niemeyer1, Hartmut Eiben2, Hans Rohde3 ABSTRACT: Coastal engineering in Germany has a long tradition basing on elementary requirements of coastal inhabitants for survival, safety of goods and earning of living. Initial purely empirical gained knowledge evolved into a system providing a technical and scientific basis for engineering measures. In respect of distinct geographical boundary conditions, coastal engineering at the North and the Baltic Sea coasts developed a fairly autonomous behavior as well in coastal protection and waterway and harbor engineering. Emphasis in this paper has been laid on highlighting those kinds of pioneering in German coastal engineering which delivered a basis that is still valuable for present work. INTRODUCTION The Roman historian Pliny visited the German North Sea coast in the middle of the first century A. D. He reported about a landscape being flooded twice within 24 hours which could be as well part of the sea as of the land. He was concerned about the inhabitants living on earth hills adjusted to the flood level by experience. Pliny must have visited this area after a severe storm surge during tides with a still remarkable set-up [WOEBCKEN 1924]. This is the first known document of human constructions called ‘Warft’ in Frisian (Fig. 1). If the coastal areas are flooded due to a storm surge, these hills remained Figure 1.

More so, in fact, because the symbols of Dutch culture that we readily recognize all have water in their roots. The connections are revealed everywhere; from the iconic canals edging the streets of Amsterdam, to the perfectly lined sluits of the country side. Water is what makes this country work, but now more than ever, the threat of water calls for some serious attention. The resiliency of the Netherlands stems from its ability to adapt to change in climate, society, and the environment. In this way they have moved towards methods that aim to live with water rather than without. Informed by the methods of the past, the Dutch revive historic solutions to suite their modern needs. They celebrate water in their streets, canals, and rivers, they put water to use, they design with it in mind, and they resist it only when absolutely necessary.

  • Wilhelmina of Holland
    WILHELMINA OF HOLLAND KEES V AN HoEK N September 6th, 1898, a fair girl of eighteen, clad in a long O white silken robe, an ermine-caped red velvet cloak em­ broidered with golden lions hanging royally from her slim shoulders, rose amidst the great of her land and the princes of her oriental empire, solemnly to swear allegiance to the Constitu­ tion of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. After eight years of minority, since the death of her father, she now became in fact what she had been in name from her tenth year: Queen in her own right. Times change. This maxim must surely be pondered now by Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, doyenne of the ruling mon­ archs of the world. For the changes which she witnessed during her reign are so sweeping that one hardly believes the evidence of one's own eyes. Revolutions chased the Kings of Portugal and Spain far from their countries. The Emperor of Germany, at the zenith of his power when she mounted her throne, has already been an exile in Holland now for half the time of her own reign; not a solitary ruler is left of that multitude of kings and grand dukes, princes and princelings, then wielding autocratic power, to-day already completely forgotten by their former subjects. The mighty Emperor Francis Joseph died, his country does not even exist any more, and there is a warrant out for the arrest of his heir. The Czar of Russia has been exterminated with his whole family. The King of Italy-of the only family which can compete with her House in age-barely holds his own by the tolerance of a popular dictator.

  • The Netherlands After the Spanish Armada Campaign of 1588
    THE GROWTH OF A NATION; THE NETHERLANDS AFTER THE SPANISH ARMADA CAMPAIGN OF 1588 Dr. J.C.A. SCHOKKENBROEK Director del Scheepuarrthuseum de Amsterdan Introduction The Dutch historian Robert Fruin, at the time professor at Leyden University, was one of the first scholars who at the end of the nineteenth century paid special attention to the developments in the Low Countries during the decade 1588-1598. In his publication (Tien Jaren), Fruin tries to indicate that the years after 1588 have been of crucial importance to the development of the young Republic of the United Netherlands. His epos is one about "progress and victory" (1). Fruin has not been the only one fascinated by this time frame. Many scholars have followed. In my lecture I will try to indicate that much of the seed of change during this decade had already been implanted during the summer of 1588, when a mighty Spanish fleet endangered the coasts of England and the Netherlands. The Spanish Armada campaign did not succeed, and Dutch seamen had a — granted relatively modest— share in its failure (2). The way Dutch politicians and mariners responded to the threat of the Spanish Armada, combined with the threat of Alexander Farnese, duke of Parma, with his troops in the northwestern part of Flanders, has been of decisive importance to the way changes in the Republic of the United Netherlands took place. In order to discuss these consequences of the failure of the Spanish Armada campaign in a proper way, I very briefly would like to talk about the Dutch participation in the events that have had such great influence on the way world history took its course.

That is what makes America what it is.@1 The second motto has to do with the German immigration. It is borrowed from a book by THEODOR FONTANE [1819–1898], a Brandenburg-born writer, and a critic of Prussia. An old German woman, whose grandchildren have emigrated to Anmerica is speaking in her dialect of Low German: [ADröwen in Amirika.
