The Military Orders and the Reformation

choices, State building, and the Weight of Tradition

2017 || Paperback || K. Militzer e.a. || Verloren b.v., uitgeverij

For the Military Orders the age of the Reformation was a period of severe crisis in which their very existence was challenged by protestant princes and reformers. Especially in the northern part of Europe the Hospitallers and the Teutonic Order faced serious losses. Religious convictions played an important role, but events were also influenced by processes of state building and the personal ambitions of the orders' leaders on all levels. These and other themes are treated in thirteen contrib...

Living Memoria

studies in medieval and early modern memorial culture in honour of Truus van Bueren

2017 || Paperback || Rolf de Weijert e.a. || Verloren b.v., uitgeverij

In the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period people took extensive care to safeguard their own salvation and eternal remembrance, and that of their deceased relatives. Their care for the here and the hereafter is expressed in the concept of memoria, which can be defined as the complex of liturgical and social acts connecting the living and the dead. As such, memoria is much more than a religious concept. During her career dr. Truus van Bueren has become an internationally acclaimed scholar ...

Ethics. The Art of Living Well By Means of Knowledge of the Truth about Man, Sin, and Virtue

by means of knowledge of the truth about man, sin and virtue

Paperback || D.V. Coornhert || Verloren b.v., uitgeverij || met inkijkexemplaar

Ethics, published (anonymously) by Coornhert in 1586, is a remarkable publication for a number of reasons: it is the first work on ethics written in a European vernacular; it is a mature work, appearing four years before Coornhert's death, and summarizes a lifetime of writing and thinking about the good life; it is considered to be fundamentally pagan because of the absence in Zedekunst of biblical references or any direct mention of Christ. Asked why he did not write about such things as the...

Sovereignty as Inviolability

vondel's Theatrical Explorations in the Dutch Republic

2017 || Paperback || Frans-Willem Korsten || Verloren b.v., uitgeverij

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 co...

van den vos Reynaerde in international perspective [=Queeste 18 (2011) 1]

2017 || Paperback || Remco Sleiderink e.a. || Verloren b.v., uitgeverij

For this special issue of Queeste four prominent non-Dutch speaking medievalists have read Of Reynaert the Fox, the recently published English translation of Van den vos Reynaerde.

Thus, Queeste offers a fascinating journey of a German, a Canadian and two English scholars, trave...
