    Vita Radbodi (2023)
    Radboud University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: The Low Countries in the early Middle Ages. Christianity is on the rise, partly due to the efforts of missionaries such as Willibrord and Boniface. Yet the process of Christianisation is laborious. This is well illustrated in Vita Radbodi, a tenth-century Latin biography of bishop Radboud of Utrecht (c. 850-917). In it, Radboud is depicted as a pious, serious and studious young man, who is called to the episcopate after many years of study. As bishop, he encounters problems with unbelieving Frisians and ferocious Normans. Thus, he is forced to move his seat from Utrecht to the safer Deventer. The text offers a positive portrait of Radboud as a holy role model figure. He acts energetically, performs miracles and, of course, also possesses prophetic gifts. For instance, he predicts his own end well in time. The text ends with a vision of the Mother of God and Radboud's death and burial. Some twenty years after the first edition by Peter Nissen and Vincent Hunink, the text is now being reissued on the occasion of Radboud University's centenary.

     Le suprême hommage (2022)
    ASP editions - Academic and Scientific Publishers | VUBPRESS
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: Le suprême hommage studies the handling of dying, burial and commemoration of royal and political elites in Belgium in the 19th and first half of the 20th century. This innovative historical research takes place at the interface of cultural history and political history. The reader not only gains insight into the impact of social class, status and religion on funerary culture, but also into the influence of media culture on the perception of death, mourning and memory. Within a selection of 170 cases, the author discusses in words and images the mediatised deaths and no less than imposing funerals of Belgium's first kings and queens and their families. The evolving practices surrounding the deaths of (former) heads of government, (former) presidents of parliament and mayors of major cities are also discussed in detail. Finally, the genesis of Belgium's most famous urban (park) cemeteries, and the funerary heritage in these cities of death, is also brought to life through the analysis of eye-catching funeral monuments. This book is a richly illustrated survey work on the social, political and cultural dimensions of the death of high-ranking figures in 19th- and 20th-century Belgian society.

    Om beters wille (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In the 15th and 16th century a special institute developed in Flanders and Brabant: the chamber of rhetoric. Regular citizens started theater and lyricks, in small closed groups and in public. This study gives an overview of 227 chambers of rhetoric, the rhetorical culture in the Southern Netherlands and gives a fresh new look on the cultural history of the Netherlands.
    Description: In de vijftiende en zestiende eeuw ontwikkelde zich in Vlaanderen en Brabant een bijzondere instituut: de rederijkerskamer. Gewone stedelingen legden zich in gildenverband toe op toneel en lyriek, zowel in besloten kring als publiekelijk, naar aanleiding van allerlei feestelijkheden. In deze studie wordt, vertrekkend van een repertorium van 227 rederijkerskamers, de rederijkerscultuur in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden in kaart gebracht. Het uitvoerige bronnenmateriaal biedt nieuwe, vaak verrassende inzichten in het ontstaan van de rederijkerscultuur, de sociale achtergrond van de rederijkers, de verhouding van de rederijkerskamers tot stad en vorst, de betrokkenheid in de Reformatie en de Opstand en, tenslotte, de veranderende functie in de zeventiende eeuw. Dit leidt ook tot een verfrissende kijk op de cultuurgeschiedenis van de Nederlanden. De auteur komt tot de conclusie dat zich in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden een bijzonder dynamische stedelijke cultuur vormde waarbinnen de basis werd gelegd voor het 'mirakel' van de Gouden Eeuw.

    Noordbrabants Historisch Jaarboek 39 (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This colloquium focuses on urban and princely space in the Duchy of Brabant in the late Middle Ages and early modern period. The focus is on how territorial developments were perceived in different social milieus. After all, urban elites, the monarch and his entourage had different - but sometimes similar - opinions about what Brabant actually was and used various media to communicate their ideas about it. Administrative, narrative and cartographic sources, architecture, literature and art bear witness to this. The Belgian-Dutch "Stichting Colloquium De Brabantse Stad" organizes an international meeting every three years at which various aspects of the history of the cities and of urban life in the old Duchy of Brabant are examined. The colloquium is organized alternately in the provinces of Antwerp, Flemish Brabant, Walloon Brabant, North Brabant and in the Brussels Capital Region. The XIXth colloquium, taking place in Brussels at the Université Saint-Louis, is being organized in cooperation with the NWO research project Imagining a territory.

    Verzet en vrijheid (2023)
    University of Groningen Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: De geschiedenis van het beleg en ontzet van Groningen in 1672 spreekt nog altijd tot de verbeelding. Er was sprake van spanning, tragiek, sensatie en blijdschap. Er waren helden, verliezers en vooral veel onnodige slachtoffers. Nadat vijandelijke troepen grote delen van Nederland hadden overmeesterd, rukten Keuls-Munsterse soldaten op naar Groningen. Onder leiding van hun bisschoppen vuurden zij wekenlang bommen en granaten op de stad af. Dat was tevergeefs, want Groningen hield stand. Zo werd het verzet in het noorden van het land een keerpunt tijdens het zogeheten Ramp- of Bisschopsjaar. De herdenking van 350 jaar ontzet van Groningen was in 2022 aanleiding om nieuwe invalshoeken te verkennen. Dit boek bevat vier bijdragen waarin zowel de geopolitieke en militaire context als de beleving van de belegering en het ontzet aan bod komen. Veel aandacht is er voor de eigentijdse bronnen: wat vertellen ons kranten, brieven, prenten en pamfletten uit 1672 over wat zich in dit jaar in Groningen afspeelde? Speciale belangstelling is er voor de rol van de universiteit tijdens het militaire conflict. Haar studenten droegen bij aan het verzet dat resulteerde in de vrijheid die na afloop gevierd kon worden.

    Herscheppen (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-27
    Description: Imitating models was the main early modern poetical principle. This study discusses Dutch novelistic prose translated from three European bestsellers: François de Bellesforest’s Histoires Tragiques (translation 1612), John Barclay’s Argenis (translations 1640-1681), and Antoine Torche’s Le Chien de Boulogne (translation 1681). Confirming Burke’s thesis of cultural hybridity the translations reflect balancing acts between accepting and resisting the contents and morals of their models. Only Torche’s Chien is transformed into a cultural translation, by adding a new Dutch narrative to its first chapters. Save this added Dutch narrative, all three bestsellers are translated docilely and accurately. This seems to indicate that novelistic prose served to make a profit, financing other commodities of the publishers. Nevertheless, at the same time translators Reinier Telle, Gerbrandt Bredero, Jan Glazemaker, and maybe Timotheus ten Hoorn, like canaries in coal mines, may have given their readers alarming signals on social behavior.

    Elemente der antiken Erzähltheorie (2021)
    De Gruyter
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: This volume is the first to systematically analyze ancient narrative theory in German. The guiding principle is the theory that, although ancient authors like Aristotle were the forerunners of the modern categories of narrative theories, many concepts have been reinterpreted in the course of their reception. It is against this backdrop that this monograph identifies the specific features of ancient narrative theory.

    De fiere nachtegaal (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-24
    Description: The Proud Nightingale covers the many facets of medieval music in the Netherlands until the year 1600. Eighteen authors discuss songs ranging from of courtly songs, including minstrels, mystics and Modern Devots, on the performance and the oral tradition of ancient songs, and on intertextuality. What is new is the use of ethnological perspective by a number of the authors. This book is a collection of songs: messages from loved ones to joyous songs sung by groups at home and in the pub, or by farmers and servants whilst weeding, mowing and harvesting. At the same time religious melodies convey their desire for God or their distaste of the world.
    Description: De fiere nachtegaal brengt boodschappen van geliefden over in liederen gezongen door vrolijke gezelschappen thuis en in de kroeg, of door boeren en knechten onder het wieden, maaien en binnenhalen van de oogst. Op dezelfde melodieën bezingen religieuzen hun verlangen naar God of hun afkeer van de wereld. De fiere nachtegaal bestrijkt de vele facetten van het middeleeuwse lied in de Nederlanden tot aan het jaar 1600. Achttien auteurs buigen zich over de liederen van onder meer hoofse minnezangers, mystici en Moderne Devoten, over de performance en de mondelinge overlevering van oude liederen, over intertekstualiteit en contrafactuur. Nieuw is het etnologisch perspectief dat een aantal auteurs hanteert.
