Anglo-Dutch Relations, a Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the Years 1 ANGLO-DUTCH RELATIONS A Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the years 1625-1642 ’’Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests’’ Lord Palmerston Britain’s Prime Minister 1855 and 1859-65 Anton Poot, M.A. Royal Holloway University of London March 2013 Supervised by Professor Pauline Croft, MA (Oxon) DPhil. FSA FRHistS, to be submitted in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Declaration: I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis, ANGLO-DUTCH RELATIONS A Political and Diplomatic Analysis of the years 1625-1642 is my own. Signed: Name: Anton Poot Date: 2013 For my wife Jesmond 2 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to analyse Anglo-Dutch relations in this highly volatile period, as perceived and interpreted by both sides, and it also closes the gap between the notable theses of Grayson1 and Groenveld2. On 23 August 1625 Charles I and the Dutch Republic concluded a partnership agreement for joint warfare at sea and a month later a treaty for war against Spain. In December 1625 England, Denmark and the Republic signed treaties to establish the nucleus of an alliance against the Austrian Habsburgs. Charles wanted an active role in continental politics. Also to compel Spain to support his aim to restore his exiled sister Elizabeth and husband Count Elector Frederick V to their Palatinate estates and Frederick to his Electoral dignities in the Empire. The Dutch wanted England as an active partner in their war with Spain. It was a partnership of convenience, with different objectives but with the intention that success would serve the interests of both. The perceptions of the partnership were also different. Charles saw it as a continuation from Dutch dependence on England in 1585 but in 1625 the Dutch saw themselves as strong enough on land and sea to withstand mighty Spain. However, their objective to have their sovereignty internationally acknowledged contrasted with Charles’ wider foreign policy objectives. The successful diplomacy of the first nine months was followed by a premature Anglo-Dutch attack on Spain at Cadiz which met with defeat; it remained England’s only military action against Spain. In 1627 England went to war with France in support of the Huguenots but had to withdraw. After the Cadiz expedition Charles expected the Dutch to join the Danes at war in the Empire and his own war against France, an atavistic notion that the Dutch in some vague sense were indebted to the English crown and would serve English interests. 1 John Christopher Grayson, From Protectorate to Partnership – Anglo-Dutch relations 1598-1625, Ph.D. Thesis, University College (not published) (London 1978).

Hereafter, Groenveld, Verlopend Getij. 3 The Anglo-Spanish peace treaty of 1630 removed any misunderstanding. Part of the treaty was that in return for Spain’s subsidies and support for the restitution of the Palatinate, England would persuade the Dutch to end their war and in a secret treaty, if necessary, by force; the latter was clearly an English negotiating ploy. Charles’ foreign policies were governed by insularity, dynastic interests and by his deep rooted concepts of family honour and reputation. He hoped to satisfy his interests with the Republic’s acquiescence and by co-operations with others, Spain or France and finally again with Spain. Persuading the Dutch was concentrated on the North Sea area. It started with the English navy ensuring the neutrality of the narrow seas, putting pressure on the Dutch who could not attack Spain’s military supply lines when they were protected by neutral English ships. This was extended by returning to unsolved matters of previous reigns and ongoing trade rivalry, maritime and fisheries issues and Charles’ claim to sovereignty of the surrounding seas; extending his dominion to the opposite shores, to the entrances and exits of the Republic’s ports, the Southern Netherlands and France. Matters came to a head when Spain sent a new fleet to attack the Republic. It was defeated by the Dutch in the battle of the Downs, despite the English navy’s threat to intervene. This battle was the catalyst needed to expose the always unlikely assumption that Spain and England could serve each other’s interests. Both faced compelling domestic issues; England with the Scottish war and Spain with an uprising of Catalans and Portuguese. After Charles’ last attempts to come to an alliance with either Spain or France failed in 1640, the political Anglo-Dutch relations started to change. In February 1641 Charles told the House of Lords that a confederation with the Republic would be as useful as with any of his neighbours; the process to heal the Anglo-Dutch relations began. The first steps were the marriage on 2/12 May 1641 in London of Charles’ eldest daughter Mary with William II, Prince of Orange , and discussions commenced for a mutual defence treaty to replace the expired Treaty of Southampton. No longer were the Dutch the petitioning side; the tide was changing, it marked the beginning of the next phase of Anglo-Dutch political and diplomatic relations. 4 TABLE of CONTENTS Abstract 2-3 Table of contents 4-5 Acknowledgements 6 Sources 7-8 Conventions and Abbreviations 9 Introduction 10-12 Chapter One - Anglo-Dutch relations 1585-1625 13-27 Summary of the developments of Anglo-Dutch political and diplomatic relations during the forty years preceding the period of this thesis providing the background for the developments between 1625 and 1642.

Foremost is Professor Pauline Croft who taught me at Royal Holloway for my M.A. degree and fortuitously agreed to be the supervisor for my Ph.D. research. I am greatly indebted to her as without her I could not have completed this study. Following university procedures, Professor Blair Worden agreed to be my advisor. Without diminishing my thanks to the staff of the Royal Holloway College in Egham and the Senate House libraries in London, I want to compliment the archivists and staff of the English and Dutch national archives and libraries on their welcoming institutions and thank them for their readiness to advise me and their efficient assistance. The not to be forgotten Royal Holloway general staff deserve thanks and particularly Mrs. Marie-Christine Ockenden, our Graduate Administrator. My gratitude goes to Professor Simon Groenveld of the University of Leiden for his encouragement to concentrate on the 1625-1642 phase in Anglo-Dutch relations and for sharing his knowledge on literature and Dutch sources. I also want to express my thanks to Drs. Mieke and Henri van Leeuwen in The Hague for their gracious hospitality during my frequent visits and their advice on the intricacies of the Dutch archives. Dr. K. Masters of Charlottenlund deserves my gratitude for his help with the Danish language and literature. Last but not least, in fact, my greatest thanks go to my wife Jesmond, without her nothing could have been achieved.

In 2015, which may have been the peak of Islamic State’s power, the number of Dutch Syria- goers, including women, was estimated at 220.2 The media reports and contemplates on their motivation, radicalization, recruitment and the danger these fighters possibly constitute when they return to the Netherlands.3 Politicians participate in heated debates on the status of the nationality and passports of Dutch Syria-goers. 4 The exact nature of the motives of these fighters and their actual actions, organizations and roles in Syria remain within the domain of speculation.

  • THE THREE MUSKETEERS by Alexandre Dumas
    THE THREE MUSKETEERS by Alexandre Dumas THE AUTHOR Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) was born in a small French village northeast of Paris. His father had been a general under Napoleon, and his paternal grandfather had lived in Haiti and had married a former slave woman there, thus making Dumas what was called a quadroon. Napoleon and his father had parted on bad terms, with Dumas’ father being owed a large sum of money; the failure to pay this debt left the family poor and struggling, though the younger Dumas remained an admirer of the French emperor. Young Dumas moved to Paris in 1823 and took a job as a clerk to the Duke of Orleans (later to become King Louis Philippe), but soon began writing plays. Though his plays were successful and he made quite a handsome living from them, his profligate lifestyle (both financially and sexually) kept him constantly on the edge of bankruptcy. He played an active role in the revolution of 1830, and then turned to writing novels. As was the case with Dickens in England, his books were published in cheap newspapers in serial form. Dumas proved able to crank out popular stories at an amazing rate, and soon became the most famous writer in France. Among his works are The Three Musketeers (1844), The Count of Monte Cristo (1845), and The Man in the Iron Mask (1850). Dumas’ novels tend to be long and full of flowery description (some cynics suggest that this is because he was paid by the word), and for this reason often appear today in the form of abridged translations (if you ever doubt the value of such an approach, take a look at the unabridged version of Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables sometime).

Bootsma, Ruurdje Laarhoven, M.P.H. Roessingh and Fr. P. Schreurs, MSC - have confined themselves to small regions or periods. The recent commemoration of the first Dutch cir- cumnavigation of the globe by Olivier van Noort demonstrated the lack of an up-to-date overview of the ups and downs in Dutch-Philippine relations in the course of the past four centuries. This may not seem surprising, consider- ing the absence of a history of intense, continuous contact. The two sides started with a drawn-out contest, followed by nearly three centuries of little connection, and only fifty years of significant flows of trade, people, trans- port and information. The year 1600 was a remarkable one for the emerging Dutch nation, which had been fighting for its independence from Spain since 1568. A major battle was won at Nieuwpoort, while in Asia two small fleets ventured beyond Java, then newly 'discovered' by Cornelis de Houtman (1595-96). The expedition of the Liefde (Love) resulted in long-lasting trade relations with Japan, with the Dutch obtaining an import and export monopoly through their factory at Deshima.

  • Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 Hugh Dunthorne Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-83747-7 - Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 Hugh Dunthorne Frontmatter More information Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 England’s response to the Revolt of the Netherlands (1568–1648) has been studied hitherto mainly in terms of government policy, yet the Dutch struggle with Habsburg Spain affected a much wider commu- nity than just the English political elite. It attracted attention across Britain and drew not just statesmen and diplomats but also soldiers, merchants, religious refugees, journalists, travellers and students into the confl ict. Hugh Dunthorne draws on pamphlet literature to reveal how British contemporaries viewed the progress of their near neigh- bours’ rebellion, and assesses the lasting impact which the Revolt and the rise of the Dutch Republic had on Britain’s domestic history. The book explores affi nities between the Dutch Revolt and the British civil wars of the seventeenth century – the fi rst major challenges to royal authority in modern times – showing how much Britain’s chang- ing commercial, religious and political culture owed to the country’s involvement with events across the North Sea. HUGH DUNTHORNE specializes in the history of the early modern period, the Dutch revolt and the Dutch republic and empire, the his- tory of war, and the Enlightenment. He was formerly Senior Lecturer in History at Swansea University, and his previous publications include The Enlightenment (1991) and The Historical Imagination in Nineteenth-Century Britain and the Low Countries

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.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Paolo Sarpi E Hugo Grotius: Un Dialogo Mancato?
    2019 Isonomia – Storica Rivista online di Filosofia Università degli Studi di Urbino Carlo Bo Paolo Sarpi e Hugo Grotius: un dialogo mancato? Alcune osservazioni su sovranità, jus circa sacra e fundamentalia fidei * Gregorio Baldin Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia [email protected] Abstract Hugo Grotius’ correspondence names frequently Paolo Sarpi. Grotius knew some of Sarpi’s texts, but his discovery of the Venetian friar dates back to the late 1620s, when he had already written his most important philosophico- political works. Nevertheless, some of Grotius’ texts, in particular the De Imperio Summarum Potestarum circa Sacra (written between 1614 and 1617), show significant analogies with Sarpi’s ideas. To understand these analogies, it is necessary to glance at the political and cultural milieu of the early 17 th -century Europe, when important political and religious events happened. The political and religious scenarios of the Republic of Venice and the United Provinces let us understand the reasons for some of the similarities between the writings of Sarpi and that of Grotius, but they also explain the reasons of their different orientations about the Synod of Dordrecht. However, Grotius and Sarpi evidently agree on some important topics, like irenicism, and the opposition to dogmatic disputes, but they especially share a particular concept of sovereignty, and of the jus circa sacra which must pertain to sovereign authority. Keywords : Hugo Grotius, Paolo Sarpi, sovereignty. * This article is part of a project that has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme (GA n. 725883 EarlyModernCosmology).
