Living Morphogenesis of the Heart
The overall scope of this new series will be to evolve an understanding of the genetic basis of (1) how early mesoderm commits to cells of a heart lineage that progres sively and irreversibly assemble into a segmented, primary heart tube that can be remodeled into a four-chambered organ, and (2) how blood vessels are derived and assembled both in the heart and in the body. Our central aim is to establish a four-dimensional, spatiotemporal foundation for the heart and blood vessels that can be genetically dissected for function and mechanism. Since Robert DeHaan's seminal chapter "Morphogenesis of the Vertebrate Heart" published in Organogenesis (Holt Rinehart & Winston, NY) in 1965, there ha...

Leeuwarden in de Gouden Eeuw
"O Leeuwarden, gezegend met zulke grote mannen, hoe lang al bent u voor hen meer een liefhebbende moeder geweest dan een harteloze stiefmoeder", schreef een rector van de Latijnse school in 1633. In de talrijke vroegmoderne stadsgeschiedenissen wordt doorgaans de loftrompet gestoken over het unieke karakter van de eigen stad. Deze bundel belicht verschillende aspecten van de cultuur in Leeuwarden in de Gouden Eeuw. Ze worden vergeleken met culturele ontwikkelingen buiten het gewest Holland. Na een uitvoerige inleiding over de Friese cultuur in de Gouden Eeuw (Wiebe Bergsma) volgen bijdragen over onder meer Leeuwarder geschiedschrijvers over hun stad (Wiebe Bergsma), het dagboek van een adellijke dame (Marlies Stoter), Jan Jansz. Starter en de Friese literatuur (Philippus Breuker), Anna Maria van Schurman (Mirjam de Baar), Leeuwarder schilderkunst (Piet Bakker), Leeuwarder stadsgezichten (Gert Elzinga), Leeuwarder herbergen (Henk Oly) en de rijken in Friesland (Yme Kuiper).

Patrons of the Old Faith
Patrons of the Old Faith is the first full-length study on the Catholic nobility in the Dutch Republic. Based on a detailed prosopographical analysis and through the examination of their marriage strategies, interaction with Protestants, religiosity and contributions to the Holland Mission, Jaap Geraerts shows how the behaviour of the Catholic nobility was highly distinctive and differed from their co-religionists and Protestant peers as it was influenced by a specific set of noble and Catholic values. Due to the synthesis of their noble and confessional identities, the Dutch Catholic nobility in Utrecht and Guelders acted as patrons of their faith and were instrumental for the survival of Catholicism in the Dutch Republic.

From West to North Frisia
This volume contains 25 articles covering a wide array of subjects, reflecting the breadth of scholarship of one of today’s leading experts in the field of Frisian Studies. The articles, written mostly in English and German, encompass a temporal range from Old Frisian to Modern Frisian and a geographical range from West Frisian in the Netherlands to Sater and North Frisian in Germany, and include Low German. Some articles initiate new fields of enquiry, e.g. uncharted areas of dialectology, others give comprehensive reviews of certain domains, e.g. the provenance of Old Frisian law texts, while a third category focusses on specific topics ranging from phonology, grammar and etymology to aspects of Frisian literature and a medieval Frisian ballad.
