Reynard the Fox

Reynard the Fox

There are many stories featuring the villainous hero Reynard the Fox in many languages told over many centuries, goingback as far as the early 12th century. All these stories are comic and much of the humour depends on parody and satire resulting in mockery, sometimes the subversion of certain kinds of serious literature, of political and religious institutions and practices, of scholarly argument and moralizing, and of popular beliefs and customs. The contributors to this volume, all of them experts in one or more of the Reynard stories and their backgrounds, focus on the transformation of these tales through various media and to what extent they reflect differences in the cultural, class, and generational background of their tellers.

Historical Dictionary of Cycling

The nearly 150-year-old sport of cycling had its first competition in France in 1868. Soon afterward, the need arose for purpose-built cycling tracks because of poor road conditions at the time. Racing on blocked off pieces of street or grass soon evolvedinto racing on special tracks called velodromes. This development marked the split into what are still the two main forms of cycling competition: road racing and track racing. Initially, track cycling was more popular in terms of public attention and money to be earned by racers, but this gradually changed in favor of road racing, which has been the most popular form of cycling since at least the end of World War II.

Van den vos Reynaerde geldt als hét meesterwerk van onze middeleeuwse letterkunde, en misschien wel van de hele Nederlandse literatuur. Wat is het geheim van deze klassieker, die in elke tijd ook leest als een moderne roman, en die zoveel heeft betekend voor zovelen? Met de eruditie van de kenner en het enthousiasme van de liefhebber besloot Frits van Oostrom om een boek te wijden aan de Reynaert, met het doel te laten zien wat deze tekst zo uniek maakt voor al die generaties lezers en onderzoekers die - soms op het obsessieve af - met de Reynaert hebben geleefd.
