Abstract

In de zeventiende en achttiende eeuw waren toneelopvoeringen in het theater of op straat nog iets bijzonders. De programmering van een nieuw toneelstuk was het gesprek van de dag. Theaterinvesteerders probeerden toneelopvoeringen met special effects, komische intermezzo's, muziek en dans voor zoveel mogelijk mensen aantrekkelijk te maken. Theater was daarom het ideale medium om zaken onder de aandacht van het publiek te brengen. Bestuurders en diplomaten gebruikten het toneel geregeld om hun politieke boodschap over te brengen en de publieke opinie te beïnvloeden. Niet iedereen was zo gelukkig met een theater in de stad. De grootste tegenstanders van het toneel waren de predikanten. Zij zagen toneelbezoek veelal als een gevaarlijk en zondig tijdverdrijf. In autonome steden als Amsterdam en Hamburg kregen predikanten de ruimte om zich met het theater te bemoeien, met een fel toneeldebat tussen voor -en tegenstanders van het publiek vermaak als gevolg. Achter de schermen van het stadstoneel onderwerpt het Amsterdamse en Hamburgse baroktheater voor het eerst aan een internationale vergelijking, waarbij dit debat in al zijn hevigheid en controverse voor het voetlicht wordt gebracht. De lezer krijgt zo een fascinerend beeld van het dynamische en veelkleurige maatschappelijke leven in deze twee 'vrije steden'. In deze goed leesbare handelseditie van zijn proefschrift vergelijkt de auteur het Amsterdamse en Hamburgse baroktheater van 1675-1750 vanuit stedelijk en institutioneel perspectief. Dit is een relevante internationale vergelijking, want hoewel gegrond in verschillende politiek-culturele constellaties, hadden ze ook veel gemeenschappelijk. De Amsterdamse Schouwburg en de Hamburgse Opera waren vast geworteld in het stedelijke leven en vormden zo een afspiegeling van de toenmalige dynamiek en diversiteit. Toneelopvoeringen dienden niet slechts ter vermaak en opvoeding van de burgers, maar waren ook een middel om politieke propaganda te bedrijven. De nadruk van deze studie ligt op de lokale aspecten van de historische ontwikkeling van het theater en vergelijkt welke instituties, zoals stadsbestuurders, raadsheren en hooggeplaatste burgers, diplomaten, predikanten en investeerders zich direct en indirect met de repertoirevorming van de Schouwburg en de Opera bemoeiden. Het boek bevat illustraties in zwart-wit, noten, samenvattingen in het Duits en Engels, een namen- en een zaakregister. Van belang voor geïnteresseerden in theatergeschiedenis, toneelliteratuur en stadgeschiedenis.

Abstract

This atlas presents the spatial development of Amsterdam through a series of historical and newly drawn maps, from the city’s humble beginnings to the present day, and in an international context. Comparisons are made between Amsterdam and cities like Venice, London, Paris, and Vienna.Amsterdam originated around the year 1200 as a small port town at the mouth of the river Amstel. In the 16th century, the rapidly growing merchant town became the bustling centre of the province of Holland. A hundred years later, in the Dutch Golden Age, Amsterdam grew into a powerful metropolis with connections across the globe. This was the time when the famous Canal District and the new town hall on Dam Square were built. The city dominated the surrounding region: dozens of lakes were drained to create agricultural land to feed the city, and wealthy Amsterdam citizens built themselves hundreds of luxury country houses.After a period of dramatic decline, the opening of a canal to the North Sea in 1876 inaugurated an era of renewed growth. Amsterdam’s Second Golden Age manifested in large-scale extensions and embellishment projects. In the 20th century, Amsterdam was one of the first cities in the world in which urban planning was guided by Modernist ideas about light, air, and space. It was the time of the garden cities, culminating in the ‘city of the future’, the megastructure of the Bijlmermeer housing estate.The latest urban extensions occupy a series of artificial islands, but the most remarkable achievements are the successful redevelopment of former dockyards, and the international business centre arising in the Zuidas area, close to Schiphol Airport.

Abstract

The Merchant Republics analyzes the ways in which three major economic powerhouses - Amsterdam, Antwerp and Hamburg - developed dual identities as 'communities of commerce' and as republics over the course of the long eighteenth century (c.1648-1790). In addition to discussing the qualities that made these three cities alike, this volume also considers the very real differences that derived from their dissimilar histories, political structures, economic fates and cultural expectations. While all valued both their republicanism and their merchant identities, each presented a different face to the world and each made the transition from an early modern republic to a modern city in a different manner.
