FOTO: JOHANNES DALHUIJSEN OOK SINDS ZIJN DOOD STAAT HAAR LEVEN IN HET TEKEN VAN DE SOLDAAT VAN ORANJE. Door de records brekende musical, door zijn zojuist in het Engels gepubliceerde autobiografie, door al die oorlogsherdenkingen dit jaar. Karin, weduwe van Erik Hazelhoff Roelfzema, over een eeuwigdurende liefde: „Alsof hij nog altijd bij me is, over me waakt, met me praat.” Zomer 1973: vier oorlogshelden en een mooie vrouw. Ben Vlielander Hein, Erik Hazelhoff Roelfzema, zijn vrouw Karin, Chris Krediet en Peter Tazelaar (vlnr). door CHARLES SANDERS Ze oogt breekbaar, de lange reis vanuit Hawaï heeft kracht gekost. Desondanks bezocht Karin Hazelhoff Roelfzema afgelopen week Soldaat van Oranje, de prachtige musical. Voor de vijftiende keer. Haar man, verzetsheld Erik, vertelde vlak voor zijn dood tegenover deze krant op zijn tropische eiland in de Stille Oceaan: „Ze gaan iets raars over me maken. Nou, ik moet het allemaal nog zien hoor. Mensen die zingen en vervolgens praten. Vechten, vliegen en weer liedjes neuriën… Wat moet je daar nou toch mee?” Karin lacht als we die woorden van de Soldaat van Oranje memoreren. „Zo dacht Erik. Met musicals had hij weinig. Hij stierf nog voor de première. Toch weet ik zeker dat hij enthousiast was geweest als hij het allemaal had meegemaakt. Want de voorstelling op het voormalige marinevliegkamp Valkenburg volgt het echte verhaal, zíjn leven. Meer nog dan de wereldberoemd geworden film.” Het is de langstlopende voorstelling uit de Nederlandse theatergeschiedenis.

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.

    List of films considered the best From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Films considered the greatest ever) Page semi-protected This list needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be chall enged and removed. (November 2008) While there is no general agreement upon the greatest film, many publications an d organizations have tried to determine the films considered the best. Each film listed here has been mentioned in a notable survey, whether a popular poll, or a poll among film reviewers. Many of these sources focus on American films or we re polls of English-speaking film-goers, but those considered the greatest withi n their respective countries are also included here. Many films are widely consi dered among the best ever made, whether they appear at number one on each list o r not. For example, many believe that Orson Welles' Citizen Kane is the best mov ie ever made, and it appears as #1 on AFI's Best Movies list, whereas The Shawsh ank Redemption is #1 on the IMDB Top 250, whilst Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back is #1 on the Empire magazine's Top 301 List. None of the surveys that produced these citations should be viewed as a scientif ic measure of the film-watching world. Each may suffer the effects of vote stack ing or skewed demographics. Internet-based surveys have a self-selected audience of unknown participants. The methodology of some surveys may be questionable. S ometimes (as in the case of the American Film Institute) voters were asked to se lect films from a limited list of entries.

  • 'With a Stretched Arm. Like Superman, Not Like
    ‘With a stretched arm. Like Superman, not like Hitler’. The Politics of Commemorative Irreverence in Astronaut van Oranje (2013) by Andy Fierens and Michaël Brijs ‘Met gestrekte arm. Zoals Superman, niet zoals Hitler’. De uitdagingen van het culturele geheugen in Astronaut van Oranje (2013) van Andy Fierens en Michaël Brijs Jan Lensen, Freie Universität Berlin Abstract. This essay offers an analysis of the aesthetical and political implications of the seemingly random use of names of figures from Belgian collaborationist history in the novel Astronaut van Oranje (2013) by Flemish authors Andy Fierens and Michaël Brijs. More specifically, it investigates the framing of the memory of World War II in Belgium by means of a satirical fantasy story that fuses elements from the dystopian imagination, science fiction, Gothic horror, and popular culture. Drenched in satire, hyperbole, absurdities, coarse humor, and blatant clichés, the novel eschews historiographical relevance and deliberately ignores the sensibilities that govern public and political discourses about this war past. By doing so, so I argue, it offers a provocative engagement with established practices in both Belgian and Flemish cultural memory, implementing what I will call a ‘politics of commemorative irreverence’. Keywords: Second World War, collaborationism, cultural memory, Andy Fierens, dystopia, science fiction, satire / Tweede Wereldoorlog, collaboratie, cultureel geheugen, Andy Fierens, dystopie, science fiction, satire Journal of Dutch Literature, 6.2 (2015), 37-58 Jan Lensen 38 Introduction The use of the comic in cultural representations of suffering and perpetration seems governed by a stringent ethical imperative. While the comical presentation of affliction is considered the privilege of those subjected to it (the insiders and, by extension, their descendants), the permission to laugh at perpetrators is tied to the condition of not being one (the outsiders, although this category is obviously much more difficult to demarcate).

Symbolic Power and Religious Impotence in Paul Verhoeven's Spetters Abstract This article explores the religious symbolism in the Dutch film Spetters (1980), by controversial director Paul Verhoeven. An examination of the symbolic referents in the film, in particular the use of stereotypical male power symbols, shows how expectations of power dynamics are reversed in the lives of the main characters. The film's embedded message, played out in Verhoeven's later films, concerns the impotence of Christianity in the modern world. Questions concerning theodicy are not satisfactorily answered through traditional religious ideas. God, it seems, has abandoned the human race.
