A short history of Dutch literature in the Netherlands and Belgium. Martinus Nijhoff, The Hague / Boston 1978 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/meij019lite01_01/colofon.htm © 2006 dbnl / erven Reinder P. Meijer ii For Edith Reinder P. Meijer, Literature of the Low Countries vii Preface In any definition of terms, Dutch literature must be taken to mean all literature written in Dutch, thus excluding literature in Frisian, even though Friesland is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, in the same way as literature in Welsh would be excluded from a history of English literature. Similarly, literature in Afrikaans (South African Dutch) falls outside the scope of this book, as Afrikaans from the moment of its birth out of seventeenth-century Dutch grew up independently and must be regarded as a language in its own right. Dutch literature, then, is the literature written in Dutch as spoken in the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the so-called Flemish part of the Kingdom of Belgium, that is the area north of the linguistic frontier which runs east-west through Belgium passing slightly south of Brussels. For the modern period this definition is clear anough, but for former times it needs some explanation. What do we mean, for example, when we use the term ‘Dutch’ for the medieval period? In the Middle Ages there was no standard Dutch language, and when the term ‘Dutch’ is used in a medieval context it is a kind of collective word indicating a number of different but closely related Frankish dialects.

Dampier was the first Englishman to explore parts of Australia and the first person to circumnavigate the world three times. He has also been described as Australia's first natural historian, as well as one of the most important British explorers of the period between Sir Walter Raleigh and James Cook. In 1679, Dampier joined buccaneer Captain Bartholomew Sharp on the Spanish Main of Central America, twice visiting the Bay of Campeche on the north coast of Mexico. This led to his first circumnavigation, during which he accompanied a raid across the Isthmus of Darién in Panama and captured Spanish ships on the Pacific coast of that isthmus. The pirates then raided Spanish settlements in Peru before returning to the Caribbean. Dampier made his way to Virginia, where in 1683 he was engaged by the privateer John Cooke. Cooke entered the Pacific via Cape Horn and spent a year raiding Spanish possessions in Peru, the Galápagos Islands and Mexico. This expedition collected buccaneers and ships as it went along, at one time having a fleet of ten vessels. Cooke died in Mexico and a new leader, Edward Davis, was elected captain by the crew.

  • Transplantation of Asian Spices in the Spanish Empire 1518-1640
    Transplantation of Asian Spices in the Spanish Empire 1518-1640: Entrepreneurship, Empiricism, and the Crown Omri Bassewitch Frenkel Department of History and Classical Studies Faculty of Arts McGill University Montreal January 2017 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Omri Bassewitch Frenkel 2017 ii Abstract This dissertation focuses on the way in which Crown-sponsored attempts to transplant or domesticate commercially valuable Asian spices throughout the Spanish empire generated production, circulation and institutionalization of empirical knowledge throughout Spain’s imperial domains. Although largely unsuccessful, Spaniards perceived spice transplantations as an important component of Spain’s imperial expansion during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Ventures for the introduction or domestication of spices were often initiated and run by networks of settlers, entrepreneurs, officials, friars, and natural historians, who, through empirical observation and experimentation, acquired specific expertise in that field. Successful spice transplantations attracted the attention of Spain’s imperial establishments, namely the Council of the Indies and the Casa de Contratación [known also as the “House of Trade”], which, in turn, engaged colonial administrators in Spanish America and the Philippines to call upon relevant experts for information regarding spice cultivation and processing. Consequently, experiments in the introduction and cultivation of spices were conducted in private and Crown estates in Spanish America, the Philippines and Spain, and the results thereof helped formulate Crown policies regulating spice cultivation and trade. It is maintained here that spice transplantation projects reflect an organizational culture in which policies were formed and decisions were made based on expert opinions obtained through empirical observations and experiments.

  • The Trans-Atlantic Trade And
    TURTLEIZING MARINERS –THE TRANS-ATLANTIC TRADE AND CONSUMPTION OF LARGE TESTUDINES IN 16TH- TO 18TH-CENTURY MARITIME COMMUNITIES A Dissertation By MEGAN C. HAGSETH Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Kevin Crisman Committee Members, Cemal Pulak Daryl de Ruiter Evan Haefeli Head of Department, Daryl de Ruiter August 2020 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2020 Megan C. Hagseth ABSTRACT Turtle, tortoise, turpin, and terapen (terrapin) are just a few of the wide variety of terms found in primary documents of the maritime world to refer to reptiles belonging to the order Testudines. These animals were a heavily exploited resource during the 16th through the 19th centuries as a commodity for Europe and a convenient shipboard food. Throughout the Age of Sail, the green sea turtle was a vital food source for mariners, mentioned across a wide array of historical sources, from ship logs and sailors’ journals to newspapers, letters, art, and literature. Cross-referencing and comparing these works with archaeological data identifies patterns of culture in shipboard and coastal community life that contrast with trends identified in urban consumer centers, which were often a destination for this commodity. This study seeks to reconstruct more than merely a nutritional narrative but to identify the cultural contexts of Testudines meat use by maritime communities and how this relates to larger societies. This work will create a better understanding of sailor life during this period by providing an insight into the intersection between daily maritime life and larger forces such as economics and ideology.

  • BATCHELORS DELIGHT for Web-1
    The College of William & Mary was founded on PIRATE LOOT – aaarrrgh! Buccaneers Davis, Wafer & Hingson, and the Ship Batchelors Delight By John Fitzhugh Millar, 2010, updated subsequently College Graduates Form a Plan In 1682, Charles II (reigned 1660-1685) was regarded by many at the time as the best king England ever had, the two ridiculous wars he waged against the Netherlands (1665-7 and 1672-4) not withstanding. For example, the charter he issued to Rhode Island in 1662 is a model of liberalism, and his Habeas Corpus Act of 1679 is not only a cornerstone of Western law but also completely his own idea. He fostered the advancement of science through founding the Royal Society (still the premier scientific body in the world), and he served as a committed patron of British art, music and architecture (Sir Christopher Wren and his teacher Elizabeth Lady Wilbraham being his leading architects). However, since Charles had no legitimate children and was nearing the end of his life, it was becoming obvious that his brother James would be the next king, and James had a good chance of becoming one of the worst kings England ever had (and he did not disappoint). Therefore, a group of about fifty men in their early twenties, mostly recent graduates of colleges at Oxford and Cambridge, decided to get out while the getting was good, and seek their fortunes elsewhere. They intended to go on a “privateering” voyage (a polite word for “pirating”) to the Caribbean, even though they knew little about sailing (the hired captain would know what to do).

Campbell, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 The native populations of Araucania (southern Chile) never succumbed to Inka or Spanish conquest. But while independent indigenous sociopolitical structures persisted until the late 1800s, remarkably little is known about late prehispanic and early historical Araucanian sociopolitical organization. Lacking significant archaeological research, current reconstructions are based almost exclusively on European chronicles, and paint a bewilderingly varied picture of indigenous organization, ranging from a

  • Searching for Manila: Personal and Political Journeys
    Searching for Manila: Personal and Political Journeys in an Asian Megacity Thomas Sykes Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD in Creative Writing May 2018 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Thomas Sykes, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 14/05/2018 2 Acknowledgments Any project as sizeable and wide-ranging as this one depends upon the help and kindness of an extraordinary number of people. To name them all here would be to double the length of this thesis. Thus, I offer my thanks to everyone in the UK, Philippines and other countries who have generously given me their time and counsel over the last six years. Special mentions must go to my primary supervisor Ardashir Vakil, who has offered me invaluably comprehensive advice on the writing up and editing of the creative element of the submission, and to Dr Tamar Steinitz, who assisted me in the same ways with the critical commentary. I must also thank my original secondary supervisor, Professor Bart Moore-Gilbert, who sadly passed away in the fourth year of my studies. May he rest in peace. Avie Olarte, Nina Somera, Joel Toledo, Douglas Candano and Taja Villanueva were vitally important to my field research because they shared with me their contacts, arranged interviews and suggested intriguing places to visit. Finally, I am grateful to the Faculty of Creative and Cultural Industries at the University of Portsmouth – where I teach – for sponsoring my research trips to the Philippines between 2016 and 2017, and for awarding me a sabbatical in late 2017 that allowed me to complete this thesis.
