Kirk 411 Bibliography 413 Index 441 Acknowledgements Two people to whom I am particularly indebted in writing this book are Professor Marijke van der Wal and Dr. Ton Harmsen. Marijke is Professor of Dutch at Leiden University. She has helped me in various ways during my career as a neerlandicus, in particular with my translations of some of Constantijn Huygens’ poetry published in 2008 and more recently by inviting me to give a paper at a Taal & Tongval colloquium in Ghent in December 2012. That paper forms the basis of the present book (Joby 2013e). Ton Harmsen has recently retired as a lecturer in Dutch literature at Leiden. He has helped me to translate two works by Vondel into English and as I have written this book, he has always been willing to offer help and advice on Dutch passages discussed in the book. For these reasons I dedicate this book to both Marijke and Ton. Another person to whom I am deeply indebted is Dr. Alastair Duke, formerly a Reader in History at Southampton University. Alastair was kind enough to read an earlier version of this book and offered me much valuable advice and encouragement. Dr. Karel Bostoen has been another constant source of advice and support in the writing of this book. Karel’s work on Johannes Radermacher’s 1568 Dutch grammar has been a particular inspiration to me as I have sought to argue for the importance of London in the history of early modern Dutch lan- guage and literature.

In order to boost the readership of his bi-weekly Leeuwarder Courant (1752–), Ferwerda made use of Knoop’s expertise as a handbook-writer. He employed Knoop to write a short tract: the Kort Onderwys, hoedanig men de Couranten best lezen en gebruiken kan (Brief education, on how one can best read and use newspapers). This was a small guide which praised the virtues of reading a newspaper: it argued that any individual would improve their standing, knowledge and education through the regular consumption of a newspaper.3 Towards the end of his handbook, Knoop also touched on the many benefits of newspaper advertising: The newspaper not only serves to highlight news and reports of foreign occurrences, but also to notify the inhabitants of a country or pr ovince … of public affairs which could be of interest to many sorts of people, and who would, without newspapers, not be aware of these things … such as advertisements or notifications for the sale or rent of dwellings, houses, fields, farms, gardens, cows, oxen, horses, sheep, books, &c., prices of grain, bread, butter, cheese, meat, bacon and a hundred other things which concern general society or the communality, and which are 1 The Short Title Catalogue Netherlands (http://picarta.pica.nl, accessed 26 April 2017) records 40 editions under his name between 1744 and 1790.

  • The Dutch in the Early Modern World David Onnekink , Gijs Rommelse Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-12581-0 — The Dutch in the Early Modern World David Onnekink , Gijs Rommelse Frontmatter More Information The Dutch in the Early Modern World Emerging at the turn of the seventeenth century, the Dutch Republic rose to become a powerhouse of economic growth, artistic creativity, military innovation, religious tolerance and intellectual development. This is the first textbook to present this period of early modern Dutch history in a global context. It makes an active use of illustrations, objects, personal stories and anecdotes to present a lively overview of Dutch global history that is solidly grounded in sources and literature. Focusing on themes that resonate with contemporary concerns, such as overseas exploration, war, slavery, migration, identity and racism, this volume charts the multiple ways in which the Dutch were connected with the outside world. It serves as an engaging and accessible intro- duction to Dutch history, as well as a case study in early modern global expansion. david onnekink is Assistant Professor in Early Modern International Relations at Utrecht University. He has previously held a position at Leiden University, and was a visiting professor at the College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, VA, and the University of California, Los Angeles. He has been a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities at Edinburgh (2004), Het Scheepvaartmuseum in Amsterdam (2016–2017) and the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study (2016).

At first sight the translation appears to be a straightforward mercantile handbook. No additions are made to the English language original of 1721, other than a set of tables. Yet, precisely in this mercantile function lies a different political significance. The argument of this article, built up through contextual reconstruction and analysis of a number of pamphlets, trade handbooks and periodicals, is that the Historie van den algemenen en bijzonderen koophandel van Groot Brittannien provided an instrument to its Dutch readers, presumably consisting to a large extent of merchants and politicians, for coming to grips with the reality of international commerce that had emerged following the War of the Spanish Succession.

THE WORK INCLUDES THE FIRST PRINTED MAP IN AN EDITION OF PTOLEMY TO NAME AMERICA, THE FIRST PRINTED MAP OF SOUTHEAST ASIA, AND THE FIRST PRINTED MAP OF CHINA. The list of contributors is a veritable ‘who’s who’ of German Renaissance publishing: the text was translated by Wilibald Pirckheimer, using the notes of Johannes Regiomontanus, perhaps under the editorship of Johann Huttich; the ornamental woodblock designs on the reverse of the maps are attributed to Albrecht Duerer, who also contributed the woodblock of the armillary sphere. The present edition was printed for Johann Koberger by Johann Grüninger, using the woodblocks of the first Grüninger edition of 1522. The woodcut maps in the trapezoid shape developed by the German cartographer Nicolaus Germanus in 1460 comprise 27 maps according to Ptolemy as well as 23 “modern“ maps (Tabula Moderna) according to the knowledge of the time.

  • Literature of the Low Countries
    Literature of the Low Countries A Short History of Dutch Literature in the Netherlands and Belgium Reinder P. Meijer bron Reinder P. Meijer, Literature of the Low Countries. 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.

One gets the impression that the government of the King-Stadholder was widely appreciated in the Dutch Republic, while in fact his position was not uncontested and this image was partly constructed in laudatory poems. The laudations for William were univocal in their praise and particularly religious in tone. The example of the Amsterdam female poet Katharina Lescailje (1649–1711) highlights both aspects of the poetry about William and Mary. The resounding praise for William, as well as the religious tone in the poems written during the 1680s, was in remarkable opposition to her earlier political poems, written in the 1670s.
