  • Queen Christina's Esoteric Interests As a Background to Her
    SUSANNA ÅKERMAN Queen Christina’s Esoteric Interests as a Background to Her Platonic Academies n 1681 the blind quietist, Francois Malaval, stated that Queen Christina of Sweden late in life had ‘given up’ [Hermes] Trismegistos and the IPlatonists, in favour of the Church fathers. The statement does not ex- plain what role the Church fathers were to play in her last years, but it does show that Christina really had been interested in the rather elitist and esoteric doctrine of Hermetic Platonic Christianity. In this paper I shall look at her library to show the depth of this Hermetic involvement. Her interest serves as a background to her life as ex-queen in Italy after her famous abdication from the Swedish throne in 1654, when she was 27 years old. Christina styled herself as the Convert of the Age, and she set up court in Rome where she held a series of scientific and cultural acad- emies in her palace. Her Accademia Reale was staged briefly in the Palazzo Farnese in her first year in Rome, 1656, but was revived in 1674 and was held for a number of years in her own Palazzo Riario.1 Also, Giovanni Ciampini’s Accademia dell’Esperienze, also called Ac­­ cademia Fisico-mathematico, gathered there for their first founding meeting in 1677. Furthermore, she was protectress of the Accademia degli Stravaganti in Collegio Clementina from 1678 and in Orvieto for the Accademia dei Misti. (Christina 1966: 377, cited below as NMU.) Her inspirational presence and resources were valued by many liter- ary figures. After her death in 1689, she was chosen to be a symbolic figurehead, Basilissa (Greek for Empress), by the poets that formed the Accademia dell’Arcadia (D’Onofrio 1976).

  • Minimal Faith and Irenic Ideals in Seventeenth-Century Scholarly Circles Hugo Grotius As a Guardian of Isaac Casaubon’S Legacy*
    Church History Church History and and Religious Culture 94 (2014) 444–478 Religious Culture brill.com/chrc Minimal Faith and Irenic Ideals in Seventeenth-Century Scholarly Circles Hugo Grotius as a Guardian of Isaac Casaubon’s Legacy* Henk Nellen Huygens Institute, The Hague, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract This article shows how the Dutch humanist Hugo Grotius (1583–1645), inspired by his friend Isaac Casaubon, sought to introduce a procedure for mitigating strife in the Christian church. He proclaimed a division between a set of self-evident, universally accepted key tenets, to be endorsed by all believers, and a larger number of secondary, not completely certain articles of faith, which were to be left open for friendly debate. The doctrine of the Trinity belonged to the second category; it should be treated in a careful, detached way, in words that did not go beyond the terminology of the Bible. However, defenders of this irenic stance laid themselves open to severe criticism: the example of the conservative Lutheran theologian Abraham Calovius illustrates how they were censured for giving up divinely inspired truth for a chimerical unionist ideal which cajoled them into reintroducing the early Christian heresy of Arianism, now called Socinianism. Keywords minimal faith – secularisation – Socinianism – exegesis – seventeenth-century intellectual life – Grotius – Casaubon * Research for this article was conducted within the project ‘Biblical Criticism and Seculariza- tion in the Seventeenth Century’ (nwo, Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research, 360–25–090). I am indebted to two anonymous reviewers for their remarks on an earlier ver- sion of this article.

  • Gevaarlijke Kennis (Dangerous Knowledge, 2007, Sample Translation)
    Sample Translation Dangerous Knowledge (Gevaarlijke kennis) by Luuc Kooijmans (Amsterdam: Bert Bakker, 2007) Translated by Diane Webb LUUC KOOIJMANS – DANGEROUS KNOWLEDGE III IN SEARCH OF A REPUTATION Niels Stensen and Jan Swammerdam faced an uncertain future. There were no paid positions for research scientists, and those wishing to indulge in observation and experimentation were forced to do so in their free time. To earn a living, Stensen and Swammerdam would have had to become practising physicians, but the idea did not appeal to them. Not only had almost all current medical theories been called into question – owing in no small part to their own work – but they also believed that the foundations of medical science were too shaky to sustain any serious practice. A great many anatomical and physiological issues had first to be resolved, and as physicians they would have far too little time for this. Even as university lecturers they could not be certain of continuing their research, for empirical study was not a generally accepted approach in academic medicine. Universities were primarily institutions for the dissemination of classical learning, with little attention being paid to new findings. The lack of any convincing alternative had led most European universities to cling to outmoded teaching material, and the spirit of Aristotle still prevailed. Students were given Galen and Hippocrates to read, and were instructed in the doctrine of the four humours. There were, however, outside the universities, various forms of private seminars, in which more widely ranging and controversial material could be handled than in university lectures, and where fresh insights therefore made faster inroads.

    Early Modern Low Countries 1 (2017) 2, pp. 273-296 - eISSN: 2543-1587 273 The Banished Scholar Beverland, Sex, and Liberty in the Seventeenth-Century Low Countries Karen Hollewand Karen Hollewand completed her ba and ma at the University of Utrecht before moving to England, where she finished her dphil on the banishment of Beverland at the University of Oxford in 2016. She is interested in the early modern social, cultural, and intellectual history of Europe and of the Low Countries in particular. Currently, she is editing her thesis for publication, working on an English translation of Beverland’s De Peccato Originali with Floris Verhaart, and developing a new research project on sex and science in the early modern period. Abstract Scholar Hadriaan Beverland was banished from Holland in 1679. Why was this humanist exiled from one of the most tolerant parts of Europe in the seventeenth century? This arti- cle argues that it was Beverland’s singular focus on sexual lust that got him into such great trouble. In his studies, he highlighted the importance of sex in human nature, history, and his own society. Dutch theologians disliked his theology, exegesis, and his use of erudition to mock their authority. His humanist colleagues did not support him either, since Bev- erland threatened the basis of the humanist enterprise by drawing attention to the sexual side of the classical world. And Dutch magistrates were happy to convict the young scholar, because he had insolently accused them of hypocrisy. By restricting sex to marriage, in compliance with Reformed doctrine, secular authorities upheld a sexual morality that was unattainable, Beverland argued, and he proposed honest discussion of the problem of sex.

Pisani Schede autori Contesto teologico e filosofico Isaak Vossius Isaak Vossius, sometimes anglicised Isaac Voss (Leiden 1618–London February 21, 1689) was a Dutch scholar and manuscript collector. Life He was the son of the better-known humanist Gerhard Johann Vossius. Isaak formed what was accounted the best private library in the world (Massil 2003). He had a contemporary reputation for eccentricity, refusing the sacrament on his deathbed, it was reported, until reminded that to do so would reflect unfavorably on the canons of Windsor, to which chapter he belonged. He was raised in the atmosphere of a scholarly household, familiar with Greek, ancient geography, and Arabic from a tender age. In 1641, he undertook a European tour, in which he visited England, France and Italy (notably Florence), making the acquaintance of scholars of the elder generation such as James Ussher and Hugo Grotius and beginning his lifelong collecting of manuscripts and books before he returned to Amsterdam in 1644 to take up a position as city librarian. In 1648, he went to Sweden, summoned by Queen Christina to take up a position as her court librarian, and accompanied by Cornelius Tollius as his amanuensis. There he enriched the library that had been founded by Gustavus Adolphus, partly as booty of war from the library of Prague, with judicious purchases, but incurred the enmity of the French philologist Claudius Salmasius. At the death of his father in 1650, he returned briefly to Amsterdam to oversee the shipping of his father's library to Stockholm.

  • THE HISTORY RECONSTRUCTION of HUGO GROTIUS' LIBRARY The
    EDWIN RABBIE THE HISTORY RECONSTRUCTION OF HUGO GROTIUS' LIBRARY A SURVEY OF THE RESULTS OF FORMER STUDIES WITH AN INDICATION OF NEW LINES OF APPROACH * lNTRODUCTION The sources for the reconstruction of that which once must have consti­ tuted the collection of books of the Dutch lawyer, philologist, poet, (amateur-) theologian and statesman Hugo Grotius (1583-1645) flow in relative abun­ dance. A contemporary inventory of his library has been preserved; a num­ ber of books which stem from his possession are to be found until today in Dutch and foreign public collections; his extensive correspondence supplies us with a considerable amount of facts about books which were consulted by him or which formed part of his collection. Apart from the main punishment of eternai imprisonment (' eeuwige gevangenisse '), the sentence pronounced o n 18 May 1619 in the extraordinary trial for laesa maiestas against Hugo Grotius likewise contained as an additional penalty the confiscati o n of ali his belongings, including his extensive library 1• One can imagine that especially this latter aspect of the punishment must ha ve been felt as a severe blow by a man like Grotius, who used to pass a large part of his time among his books, certainly when added to the prospect - in itself already horrible enough- to have to spend the remainder of his days in seclu­ sion: at the time of his conviction Grotius was only 36 years old. Incidental­ ly, the punishment was not in all respects implemented as severely as it seemed it would in the beginning; already in June 1619 Grotius' spouse, Maria van Reigersberch, obtained permission to transport certain possessions, among which also some thirty books, to Loevestein castle, where Grotius was to * This artide mainly deals with the history and reconstruction of Grotius' lìbrary durìng his Dutch perìod (1583-1621); for the later perìod only outlines are sketched.
