Die Variabilität Frühneuzeitlicher Staatlichkeit Beiträge zur Europäischen Überseegeschichte Franz Steiner Verlag Zusatzmaterial zu: Oliver Krause Die Variabilität frühneuzeitlicher Staatlichkeit Die niederländische „Staats“-Formierung der Statthaltosen Epoche (1650–1672) als interkontinentales Regiment Franz Steiner Verlag, Stuttgart 2018 APPENDIX I – STADTPLAN AMSTERDAM Die Karte Amsterdams zeigt den Innenstadtring schematisch. Die blau eingefärbten Kanäle dienen der Orientierung im Stadtraum. Die Namen der Personen sind unter den jeweiligen Straßenzügen oder Wohngegenden aufgelistet. Dabei kann es zu Mehrfachnennungen kommen, da einige Regenten den Wohnort gewechselt haben. Die Graphik zeigt die Zentrierung von Institutionen und Akteuren in Amsterdam. Im Anschluss an die Karte Amsterdams findet sich die Auflistung der wichtigsten Persönlichkeiten der politischen Elite in den Vereinigten Niederlanden des 17. Jahrhunderts. Alle aufgeführten Personen lebten, wenn auch teilweise nur für kurze Zeit, in Amsterdam. Neben ihrer beruflichen Laufbahn sind ihre Ehepartner und Verwandten angeführt, um die Vernetzung zwischen den Regentenfamilien zu zeigen. Nicht alle Personen, die in den Tabellen aufgelistet sind, tauchen auf dem Stadtplan auf. Im Stadtplan sind nur die wichtigsten Personen verzeichnet. Die Grundlage für die Erstellung der Graphik und der Personenlisten war folgende Literatur: Aa, A.J. van der: Biographisch woordenboek der Nederlanden, 21 Deelen, 1 Bijvoegsel, Haarlem: J.J. van Brederode, 1852 ̶ 1878.

Her PhD thesis (University of Amsterdam, 2020) analysed the representation of the Mongols in the Mamluk sultanate of Egypt and Syria, c. 1250-1350. Her research interests include ethnic stereotyping, urban organisation, and the medieval and early mod- ern Middle East. She is also editor-in-chief of the semi-academic journal ZemZem. Tijdschrift over het Midden-Oosten, Noord-Afrika en islam. Abstract Recent historiography has demonstrated how Istanbul became part of a European media landscape in the seventeenth century. This article argues that European coun- tries not only targeted the Ottoman Porte but also tried to reach Arabic-speaking audiences in other major Ottoman cities, such as Aleppo. It does so through an anal- ysis of a remarkable source, an Arabic manuscript pamphlet written by a Frenchman in Aleppo in January 1673, which tells the story of the exploits of Louis xiv in the Dutch Republic during the Year of Disaster.

Ook over de precieze omvang van deze vroege Verlichting, en dus over de representativiteit van deze radicalen zullen de specialisten nog lang van mening verschillen. Maar dat die radicalen er waren, dat valt niet langer te ontkennen. Israels boek komt dan ook niet uit de lucht vallen. Ruim twintig jaar gelden was het de Amerikaanse historica Margaret C.

  • Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
    ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality.

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.

The commissioners also took office at an increasingly younger age. After the first 50 years of the bank, they began to stay on in office longer, indicating a certain degree of professionalisation.
