Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Johan van Oldenbarnevelt, Lord of Berkel en Rodenrijs (1600), Gunterstein (1611) and Bakkum (1613) (September 14, 1547, Amersfoort - May 13, 1619, The Hague) was a Dutch statesman who played an important role in the Dutch struggle for independence from Spain. Van Oldenbarnevelt studied law at Leuven, Bourges, Heidelberg and Padua, and traveled in France and Italy before settling in The Hague. He was a Calvinist, so he supported William the Silent in his revolt against Spain, and fought in William's army. He served as a volunteer for the relief of Haarlem (1573) and again at Leiden (1574). In 1576 he obtained the important post of pensionary of Rotterdam, an office which carried with it official membership of the States of Holland. In this capacity his industry, singular grasp of affairs, and persuasive powers of speech speedily gained for him a position of influence. He was active in promoting the Union of Utrecht (1579) and the offer of the countship of Holland and Zeeland by William (prevented by Williams death in 1584). He was a fierce opponent of the policies of the Earl of Leicester, the governor‐general at the time, and instead favoured Maurice of Nassau, a son of William. Leicester left in 1587, leaving the military power in the Netherlands to Maurice. During the governorship of Leicester, Van Oldenbarnevelt was the leader of the strenuous opposition offered by the States of Holland to the centralizing policy of the governor.

Product Description
Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Christiaan Huygens, FRS (English pronunciation: , Dutch: ; 14 April 1629 - 8 July 1695) was a prominent Dutch mathematician, astronomer, physicist, horologist, and writer of early science fiction. His work included early telescopic studies elucidating the nature of the rings of Saturn and the discovery of its moon Titan, the invention of the pendulum clock and other investigations in timekeeping, and studies of both optics and the centrifugal force. Huygens achieved note for his argument that light consists of waves, now known as the Huygens-Fresnel principle, which became instrumental in the understanding of wave-particle duality. He generally receives credit for his discovery of the centrifugal force, the laws for collision of bodies, for his role in the development of modern calculus and his original observations on sound perception (see repetition pitch). Huygens is seen as the first theoretical physicist as he was the first to use formulae in physics. Christiaan Huygens by Bernard Vaillant, Museum Hofwijck, Voorburg Christiaan Huygens.

Excerpt: Johan de Witt, heer van Zuid- en Noord-Linschoten, Snelrewaard, Hekendorp and IJsselveere (Dordrecht, 24 September 1625 The Hague, 20 August 1672) was a key figure in Dutch politics at a time when the Republic of the United Provinces was one of the Great Powers in Europe, dominating trade routes and thus the wealthiest and mightiest nation in the world. In the mid 17th century he controlled the Netherlands political system in close cooperation with his uncle Cornelis de Graeff. Johan de Witt was born as the son of Jacob de Witt, an influential burgher from the patrician class in the city of Dordrecht which, in the seventeenth century, was one of the most important cities of the dominating province of Holland. Johan and his older brother Cornelis de Witt grew up in a privileged environment in terms of education, his father having important scholars and scientists, such as Isaac Beeckman, Jacob Cats, Gerhard Vossius and Andreas Colvius as good acquaintances. Jacob de Witt greatly valued stoicism. Johan and Cornelis both attended the latin school in Dordrecht, which impregnated both brothers even more with the values of the Roman Republic. As Johan proved to be a highly gifted student, he was rewarded by being allowed the role of Julius Caesar in a school play. Wendela Bicker (1659), by Adriaen Hanneman Johan de Witt married 16 February 1655 Wendela Bicker (1635-1668), daughter of Jan Bicker (1591-1653), an influential patrician from Amsterdam, and Agneta de Graeff van Polsbroek (16031656). Jan Bicker served as mayor of Amsterdam in 1653. De Witt became a relative to the strong republican minded brothers Cornelis and Andries de Graeff and to Andries Bicker. The couple had four children, 3 daughters and 1 son : After De Witt's death his cousin Pi... More: http://booksllc.net/?id=749956 ... Read more

Extrait : Johan van Oldenbarnevelt (Jean d'Oldenbarnevelt), né le 14 septembre 1547 à Amersfoort et mort le 13 mai 1619 à La Haye, grand pensionnaire de 1589 à 1619 des États de Hollande, délégué de Rotterdam auprès de ces mêmes États, a joué un rôle important dans la révolte des Pays-Bas contre l'Espagne. Collaborateur de Guillaume le Taciturne et de son fils Maurice de Nassau, qui l'a fait exécuter en 1619. Johan van Oldenbarnevelt est né le 14 septembre 1547 à Amersfoort, dans la province d'Utrecht. Son père, Gerrit van Oudenbarnevelt est marchand. En 1564, il quitte Amersfoort et part travailler chez un avocat de La Haye. Il étudie ensuite le droit à Louvain, Bourges, Cologne, Heidelberg et Padoue. À Louvain, il change son nom en Oldenbarnevelt et se convertit au calvinisme à Heidelberg. En 1570, Van Oldenbarnevelt devient avocat à la cour de Hollande. Lorsque la révolte contre l'Espagne débute en 1572, il rentre en correspondance avec Guillaume Ier d'Orange-Nassau et devient son conseiller juridique. Il épouse en 1576 la fille adultérine d'un régent de Delft, Maria d'Utrecht. L'année suivante, il devient le pensionnaire de Rotterdam. Il devient ainsi membre des États de Hollande. Son intelligence, son ardeur au travail et son pouvoir de persuasion lui permettent d'acquérir de l'influence. Il est un fervent défenseur de l'Union d'Utrecht, proclamant l'indépendance des Provinces-Unies en 1579.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Grand Book about a Grand Man (and a Grand Time)
Professor Rowen is one of those rare historians who seems to possess both the grace of the English amateurs and the precision of their earnest German counterparts.While his books often focus on the ruling classes -- or on a particular member, as in this case -- he does not neglect to express what is going on with everyone else and with the culture as a whole.Historically curious Americans will find great instruction in learning about the Dutch who were our truest ancestors both in terms of religion and cultural mores and in terms of the endless quest for financial success.And Rowan is a very serious and gentle teacher.One cannot go wrong with this book. ...

Sir William Temple, the most important English ambassador of the 17th century, negotiated the famous Triple Alliance of 1668 when he, with John de Witt, took steps to hinder the expansion of Louis XIV's France.Temple's cooperation with de Witt, the Grand Pensionary of Holland, throws light not only on the workings of diplomacy but also upon domestic affairs in Britain.This study of the most significant period in Temple's diplomatic career will contribute much to an understanding of the writer whose best known work, Observations on the United Provinces (1672), arose from his dealings with the Dutch Republic. ...
