In the first place I want to express my gratitude to Jan Bloemendal, Harm-Jan van Dam and Giel van Gemert, who had the courage to entrust me with this project. Thanks to their endeavors, the Dutch Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) had granted our project “Dynamics of Neo- Latin and the Vernacular. The Role of Self-Representation, Self- Presentation and Imaging in the Field of Cultural Transmission, Exemplified by the German Reception of Dutch Poets in a ‘Bilingual’ Context” sufficient means to enlist three PhD candidates and one postdoc.1 The result of one of these projects is this thesis. I am very grateful to Tom Deneire, our postdoc, who has helped me and the other PhD candidates endless times with never ending patience and suffered all our despair and ignorance. He has helped us enormously and his contribution to our project cannot be overemphasized. I am grateful to all members of our project for their help, their input, their criticism. Apart from the members mentioned above, I thank Eva van Hooijdonk en Ümmü Yuksel for their collegiality and their support. I should offer a special word of thanks here to Jan Bloemendal, who was my supervisor in the first stage of the project. I have learned much from his energy and his originality. When Jan Bloemendal left the University of Amsterdam, Lia van Gemert was willing to take over and help me finish this project. I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude to her for her help and moral, practical and conceptual support. She helped me focus the direction of my research and encouraged me to write down my thoughts and arguments. I thank Giel van Gemert for his kind support and supervision. Whenever I lost the common cause out of sight and strayed away from the flock, Giel kindly led me back to the Dynamics between Latin and the Vernacular. 1 First results of this project, as well as rough material for this thesis, appeared in: Deneire, Dynamics of Neo-Latin and the Vernacular. 1 A special word of thanks goes to Irene Zwiep. It is impossible here Acknowledgements to do full justice to her contribution. Irene has from the first day I set foot in her classroom stimulated me to see the beauty of the human mind, wherever, whenever. She has always urged me to keep reading and I want to thank most sincerely all those who have helped me to thinking, always trusting and stimulating my own thoughts. More than write this thesis and who have enabled me to carry out my research. In the that, I am grateful for her friendship, which I cherish. first place I want to express my gratitude to Jan Bloemendal, Harm-Jan Last but not least,

  • The Intersection of Art and Ritual in Seventeenth-Century Dutch Visual Culture
    Picturing Processions: The Intersection of Art and Ritual in Seventeenth-century Dutch Visual Culture By © 2017 Megan C. Blocksom Submitted to the graduate degree program in Art History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Dr. Linda Stone-Ferrier Dr. Marni Kessler Dr. Anne D. Hedeman Dr. Stephen Goddard Dr. Diane Fourny Date Defended: November 17, 2017 ii The dissertation committee for Megan C. Blocksom certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Picturing Processions: The Intersection of Art and Ritual in Seventeenth-century Dutch Visual Culture Chair: Dr. Linda Stone-Ferrier Date Approved: November 17, 2017 iii Abstract This study examines representations of religious and secular processions produced in the seventeenth-century Northern Netherlands. Scholars have long regarded representations of early modern processions as valuable sources of knowledge about the rich traditions of European festival culture and urban ceremony. While the literature on this topic is immense, images of processions produced in the seventeenth-century Northern Netherlands have received comparatively limited scholarly analysis. One of the reasons for this gap in the literature has to do with the prevailing perception that Dutch processions, particularly those of a religious nature, ceased to be meaningful following the adoption of Calvinism and the rise of secular authorities. This dissertation seeks to revise this misconception through a series of case studies that collectively represent the diverse and varied roles performed by processional images and the broad range of contexts in which they appeared. Chapter 1 examines Adriaen van Nieulandt’s large-scale painting of a leper procession, which initially had limited viewership in a board room of the Amsterdam Leprozenhuis, but ultimately reached a wide audience through the international dissemination of reproductions in multiple histories of the city.

  • Looking for Vulcanius: Plethora and Lacunae
    © 2010 by Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, The Netherlands (ISBN: 978-90-04-19209-6) LOOKING FOR VULCANIUS: PLETHORA AND LACUNAE Hélène Cazes In 1910, as an introduction to Codices Vulcaniani, P.C. Molhuysen could summarize in one and half page what was known about Vulca- nius: birth and death dates (1538–1614), family (the son of the Bruges humanist Petrus Vulcanius), studies (in Leuven and Ghent, then with Cassander in Germany), employment held (secretary to Francisco da Mendoza and his brother in Spain, preceptor in the Sudermanns’ house, editor and translator in Geneva, secretary to Marnix, professor in Leiden), and collections (manuscripts, essentially). From there, it is possible to gaze both at the plethora of information waiting to be studied; and, at the same time, at the insuperable lacunae, that seem to be inherent in the story of Bonaventura Vulcanius. By the humanist himself, much had been passed on to the library or to common store of knowledge: books written, editions provided, commentaries published or ready for publication, classes taught and remembered, manuscripts collected, papers, and even two portraits. Moreover, he had been given the opportunity to write not only a poetic epitaph for himself but also to compose, or at least supervise, his own first biography. Though he left behind a considerable num- ber of documents and testimonies, Bonaventura Vulcanius also left a cloud of mystery around his name, his activities and his beliefs. In this case, too, much information, volunteered by various interested parties has maintained and even thickened the mysteries raised by his silences, his departures, or his allegiances.

By Alexander Lee. Brill’s Studies in Intellectual History, 210. Leiden and Boston: Brill, 2012. x + 382 pp. $177. Petrarch’s opera is extensive, that of Augustine is extraordinarily vast, and the literature on both is vaster still. To bridge them successfully is a significant undertaking. Over the past fifty years, scholars have attempted this task, from classic studies by Charles Trinkaus (often discussed here) to more recent ones such as C. Quillen’s Rereading the Renaissance: Petrarch, Augustine and the Language of Humanism (1995) and M. Gill’s Augustine in the Italian Renaissance: Art and Philosophy from Petrarch to Michelangelo (2005). In a new study, Alexander Lee argues that “Petrarch’s thought on moral questions was derived principally from the writings of St. Augustine” (24). Lee contends that Petrarch, rather than being philosophically inconsistent as is often suggested, was especially influenced by Augustine’s early works, most notably the Soliloquies and the De vera religione, which provided him with an interpretive method for incorporating classical literature and philosophy into Christian moral theology.
