Literatuur is aan het begin van de 21ste eeuw spirnglevend. Dat blijkt uit verkoopcijfers, maar bijvoorbeeld ook uit de populariteit van festivals. In vele vormen is literatuur verbonden met, of verhoudt ze zich tot ander media. Door mondialisiering en migratie houden verschillende culturele groepen zich met literatuur bezig, in een veranderend Nederland, in een veranderend Europa. Dat heeft de vraag des te klemmender gemaakt hoe we goed en gevoelig kunnen lezen - als een essentieel onderdeel van modern cultureel burgerschap. In het kader daarvan is de geschiedenis en praktijk van de moderne literatuurwetenschap onmisbaar, omdat ze de vaardigheden biedt die complexe geletterdheid vraagt. Lessen in literatuur vertelt over 2500 jaar literatuur, literatuurgeschiedenis en literatuurbeschouwing. Anders dan illustere voorgangers als Knuvelder en Anbeek beperkt F.W. Korsten zich niet tot Nederlandse literatuur. Dertien cruciale perioden uit de literatuurgeschiedenis van de oudheid tot heden koppelt hij aan evenveel begrippen uit de geesteswetenschappen - wat enkele verrassende combinaties oplevert. De perioden en begrippen worden steeds toegelicht aan de hand van literaire teksten. Zo komt het werk van onder anderen Ovidius, Dante, Mary Shelley, Jean Rhys, Derek Walcott en Charlotte Mutsaers in aantrekkelijke analyses aan bod.

Sovereignty is a key issue in the baroque, and especially in the Dutch Republic with its incredibly complicated political organisation. Consequently, in and through Joost van den Vondel's theatre plays, sovereignty was explored. Vondel sensed a fundamental problem in the construction of Europe’s politico-cultural 'house'. The questions he asked with respect to that construction concerned the relation between theology and politics, also in terms of gender and culture. Since these questions could barely be considered explicitly, let alone be discussed, they had to be presented through literature – theatre. A close reading of a number of plays reveals a pivotal discussion that concerns Vondel's own times, but also an ongoing struggle in the European exploration of sovereignty. In that context, power and potency – a distinction made by Spinoza – determine the status of sovereignty that any body can acquire.

"This book looks at the way in which the 'call for justice' is portrayed through art and presents a wide range of texts from film to theatre to essays and novels to interrogate the law. The 'call for justice' may have its positive connotations, but throughout history most have caused annoyance. Art is very well suited to deal with such annoyance, or to provoke it. This study shows how art operates as an interface, here, between two spheres: the larger realm of justice and the more specific system of law. This interface has a double potential. It can make law and justice affirm or productively disturb one another. Approaching issues of injustice that are felt globally, eight chapters focus on original works of art not dealt with before, including Milo Rau's The Congo Tribunal, Elfriede Jelinek's Ulrike Maria Stuart, Valeria Luiselli's Tell Me How It Ends and George Eliot's Daniel Deronda. They demonstrate how through art's interface, impasses are addressed, new laws are made imaginable, the span of systems of laws is explored, and the differences in what people consider to be just are brought to light. The book considers the improvement of law and justice to be a global struggle and, whilst the issues dealt with are culture-specific, it argues that the logics introduced are applicable everywhere"--

Joost van den Vondel (1587-1679) was the most prolific poet and playwright of his age. During his long life, roughly coinciding with the Dutch Golden Age, he wrote over thirty tragedies. He was a famous figure in political and artistic circles of Amsterdam, a contemporary and acquaintance of Grotius and Rembrandt, and in general well acquainted with Latin humanists, Dutch scholars, authors and Amsterdam burgomasters. He fuelled literary, religious and political debates. His tragedy 'Gysbreght van Aemstel', which was played on the occasion of the opening of the stone city theatre in 1638, was to become the most famous play in Dutch history, and can probably boast holding the record for the longest tradition of annual performance in Europe. In general, Vondel’s texts are literary works in the full sense of the word, complex and inexhaustive; attracting attention throughout the centuries.
