The theme was given new life in the mid-sixteenth century through the works of the Flemish painters Pieter Aertsen (1508–75) and Joachim Beuckelaer (ca. 1533–ca. 1574), who incorporated slaughtered and disemboweled animals in their vivid renderings of abundantly supplied market stalls, and also explored the theme as an independent motif.[1] The earliest instances of the motif in the Northern Netherlands come only in the seventeenth century, possibly introduced by immigrants from the south. During the early 1640s, the theme of the slaughtered animal—split, splayed, and Fig 1. Barent Fabritius, suspended from the rungs of a wooden ladder—was taken up by (among Slaughtered Pig, 1665, oil on others) Adriaen (1610–85) and Isack (1621–49) van Ostade, who typically canvas, 101 x 79.5 cm, Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, situated the event in the dark and cavernous interior of a barn, stable, or Rotterdam, inv. -

Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Spring 2018– Course Descriptions
FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES SPRING 2018– COURSE DESCRIPTIONS HSS2 (A-N) Texts and Contexts: Old Worlds and New (Core course, 3 credits). This course is offered in multiple Sections. A study of texts and topics from 1500 to 1800, with emphasis on literary expression and cultural context. Contextual topics include the formation of modern states, exploration, encounter with the new world, the crisis in religious orthodoxy, the origins of modern science and the beginnings of political and economic individualism. This semester develops both cultural and political understanding through close reading, class discussion, and careful writing. HSS4 The Modern Context: Figures and Topics (Core course, 3 credits). A study of important figures or topics from the modern period whose influence extends into contemporary culture. Requirements include individual research and writing projects and is offered in multiple sections: HSS4 A & B: Adorno. This section of HSS4 focuses on one of the most significant philosophers of the 20th century, Theodor W. Adorno. In his work, Adorno analyzes the contradictory situations of modern society, which was founded on the myth of enlightened Reason and yet gave rise to Auschwitz. His effort, therefore, is to explore the very concept of modernity in order to understand the situations of crisis of our time. All this finds a natural application in his analysis of modern art. For Adorno, art should preserve memory and at the same time show the ‘other’ dimensions of what simply exists, in order to maintain that critical function that is at the basis of our own possibility of existence. 3 credits. -

The Dutch Republic As a Bourgeois Society
t The Dutch Republic as a Bourgeois Society maarten prak | utrecht university 107 Historians have often portrayed the Dutch Republic as the first ‘bourgeois’ society. What they had in mind was an early example of a society dominated by bmgn | lchr | volume 125 - 2-3 | 107 - 139 the sort of middle class that emerged in most other European countries after the French and Industrial Revolutions. In this article, ‘bourgeois’ is perceived in a slightly different way. By looking at the ‘bourgeois’ as ‘citizens’ – often, but not necessarily, middle class in a social sense – the article paints a picture of a plethora of blossoming urban civic institutions. Such civic institutions also existed in other European countries. What set the Dutch Republic apart, however, and indeed made it an early example of a ‘bourgeois’ society, was the dominance of these civic institutions in the Republic’s socio-political life. Introduction Johan Huizinga remains Holland’s most famous historian, more than fifty years after his death in 1945. His short book on Dutch Civilisation in the Seventeenth Century, first published in Dutch in 1941, probably remains the single most famous text on this particular episode in Dutch history. In it, Huizinga focuses on one element of Dutch society in particular: its bourgeois [Dutch: burgerlijk] character.1 Few modern historians would quarrel with the characterisation of Dutch society as ‘bourgeois’. However, their interpretation of this key word would probably be radically different from what Huizinga had in mind in 1941. For Huizinga, ‘bourgeois’ was first and foremost a lifestyle, and most likely the lifestyle that he had experienced first-hand himself, as a member of the Dutch upper middle class. -

Transoceanic trade routes compounded travel over land for commercial gain, and the distribution of wares took on global dimensions. Precious metals, spices, textiles, and, later, slaves were among the myriad commodities transported from west to east and in some cases back again. Taste followed trade—or so the story tends to be told. This lecture addresses the traffic in global goods in the Dutch world from a different perspective—piracy. “A Taste for Piracy in the Dutch Republic” will present and explore exemplary narratives of piracy and their impact and, more broadly, the contingencies of consumption and taste- making as the result of politically charged violence. Inspired by recent scholarship on ships, shipping, maritime pictures, and piracy this lecture offers a new lens onto the culture of piracy as well as the material goods obtained by piracy, and how their capture informed new patterns of consumption in the Dutch Republic. Jan Blanc, University of Geneva Dutch Seventeenth Century or Dutch Golden Age? Words, concepts and ideology Historians of seventeenth-century Dutch art have long been accustomed to studying not only works of art and artists, but also archives and textual sources. -
