Abstract

The Kingdom of the Netherlands is a small, but heavily populated country with almost 17 million inhabitants. It is one of the last kingdoms in Europe and in 2015 it celebrated its 200 years anniversary. The Netherlands became a kingdom after the Napoleonic era. During this period it was transformed into a centralized state. Before those years it had been one of few republics in Europe for about two centuries. That state was a confederacy, which emerged in the 1580s during its independence struggle against the Spanish Habsburgs. Although the present state is still monarchial, the Netherlands functions as a modern constitutional democracy, in which the king’s position is almost comparable with a ceremonial presidency. The majority of the Dutch population, however, appreciates the hereditary political presence of the House of Orange-Nassau, regarding this dynasty as a symbol of national unity and connection with the country’s past. This third edition of Historical Dictionary of the Netherlands contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 900 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Netherlands.

Abstract

Tegenwoordig hebben veel publicaties opvallende omslagen. Deze fungeren als blikvangers die de verkoop moeten stimuleren. In vroegmodern Europa vervulden titelprenten deze functie. Een bijzondere variant zijn de titelprenten van nieuwsperiodieken zoals de Europische Mercurius. Dit toonaangevende tijdschrift bevat zulke prenten over de periode 1690-1750. Daarop zijn vele onderwerpen uit het nieuws verbeeld, vooral allegorisch. Zo is de klassieke godenbode Mercurius op de prenten de verspreider van berichten. Prinses Europa en Zeus, vermomd als witte stier, symboliseren het Europese continent. Mars en Pax zijn vaak aanwezig, omdat zaken van oorlog en vrede de Europese politiek domineerden tijdens de zeventiende en achttiende eeuw. De eerste helft van dit boek begint met de mediahistorische context van de Europische Mercurius. Daarna komt de ontwikkeling van dit nieuwsmedium zelf aan bod. Wie waren de makers en welke kenmerken en bijzonderheden vallen op? De tweede helft van dit boek gaat over de verbeelde nieuwsonderwerpen op de titelprenten van de Europische Mercurius. Na een overkoepelende verkenning worden alle 61 exemplaren uitgelegd. Een deel van de titelprenten gaat in het tijdschrift vergezeld van verklaringen op rijm. Ook deze zogeheten titelgedichten worden in de toelichting betrokken. Kortom, dit boek is een unieke bijdrage aan onze kennis over het functioneren van de vroegmoderne Europese nieuwsvoorziening, vooral ten aanzien van haar visuele component.

Abstract

Centraal in dit nummer van Nieuwe Tijdingen staan de evolutie en vormgeving van festiviteiten in de vroegmoderne Nederlanden. Daarbij belichten de auteurs feesten van allerlei aard, bijvoorbeeld als gevolg van de Reformatie of de Franse Revolutie. Ze onderzoeken de rol van traditie en innovatie bij feestelijk vertier, de weergave en verslaggeving van feestelijkheden in media en kunsten, de rol van materiële cultuur in festiviteiten en de rol van veranderende normen en waarden met betrekking tot feestvieren in uiteenlopende sociale milieus. Zowel elitaire festiviteiten als vormen van volksvermaak komen aan bod. Zo gaat het onder meer over vorstelijke intredes, carnavalsvieringen, feestmaaltijden, loterijen, ‘kwelspelen’ en illuminaties.
