Transcription with notes of Manuscript Hs. 1322, University Library Utrecht, containing the correspondence written between 1613 and 1622 by Wouter van Gouthoeven to Arnoldus Buchelius.
Biography of Cornelius Aurelius (c. 1460-1531), the praeceptor Erasmi, and analysis of his chief historical work, the so-called Divisiekroniek.
This is the first full-scale analysis of the social and political transformation of the nobility of Holland during the revolt against Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In the age of Rembrandt, nobles seemed to have been obliterated by the rising bourgeois merchants. However, in this study of the impact of the Dutch revolt, the author finds that Dutch nobles were extremely successful in maintaining their positions within the supposedly bourgeois Republic, forming the elite in administrative, political and economic systems. This is a revised edition of van Nierop's widely acclaimed Dutch publication.
