  • Mens En Kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck*
    Robert-Jan van Pelt Mens en kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck* Inleiding Constantijn Huygens was een van de opmerkelijkste Nederlanders van de zeventiende eeuw. Als secretaris van stadhouder Frederik Hendrik gaf hij mede vorm aan de politiek van Holland in de Gouden Eeuw, als dichter leverde hij een belangrijke bijdrage aan de Nederlandse literatuur, als edelman virtuoso vervulde Huygens, heer van Zuylichem, een sleutelrol in de culturele contacten tussen Holland, Engeland en Frankrijk, en als vader bracht hij een zoon groot die door intellect en opvoeding was voorbeschikt een van de grootste geleerden van zijn tijd te worden. In dit essay zal een ander 'kind' van Huygens onder de loep worden genomen. Dit 'kind' is de tuin van Huygens' buitenhuis Hofwijck, dat is gelegen in de buurt van Voorburg (Zuid-Holland). Huidige plattegrond van Hofwijck Hofwijck zal worden besproken als een evenbeeld van Huygens: met hem ouder wordend en, hoewel door onbegrip verminkt, tot in onze tijd voortlevend.

For over 400 years now, the city has been the seat of the Dutch government. Since 1981, it is a royal city again and a city of peace and justice. The Hague is more than 750 years old and has, over the last century-and-a-half, developed into a large urban conglomerate, with a great deal of activity, cultural facilities and first-rate shops. From a town of 75,000 inhabitants in 1850, The Hague has grown into the third largest city of the Netherlands with almost 500,000 inhabitants. Owing to this late but explosive growth, The Hague has very striking architecture from the 19th th and 20 century.

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.
