Een stad vol mislukte integratie, armoede en bedrog. Bredero laat zijn lezers meemaken hoe dat uitpakt. In 1617 schrijft hij een komisch toneelstuk met een serieuze ondertoon over de Brabantse praatjesmaker Jerolimo die zijn Antwerpse schuldeisers is ontvlucht en zich in Amsterdam veel mooier en rijker voordoet dan de hongerige schooier die hij in feite is. De verwikkelingen spelen zich af in hartje Amsterdam, een snel groeiende stad, waar arm en rijk hun plaats moeten vinden en waar bedrog steeds op de loer ligt. Naast de opschepper en zijn knecht Robbeknol komen allerlei Amsterdamse bijfiguren uit de maatschappelijke onderklasse aan het woord. Behalve het sociale vraagstuk van de immigratie en armoede krijgen ook historische achtergronden, de taal en cultuur uit de tijd van Bredero ruim aandacht. 'Spaanse Brabander' is in modern Nederlands vertaald en voorzien van uitvoerige toelichting en illustraties.

This collection of essays by international scholars focuses on the vernacular urban culture of the Chambers of Rhetoric in the Low Countries of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Reflecting social, religious, and economic realities at a time of fundamental change, the Rhetoricians’ plays also reveal a range of poetic and theatrical conventions that make them an important source of information both on practical stagecraft and on the role of theatre in the urban community, as seen in their involvement in civic processions or the organization of drama competitions. The volume sets the Rhetoricians’ drama in the cultural life of the provinces of the Low Countries during a period dominated by ruling foreign dynasties: the Burgundian dukes and then the Habsburg dynasty, most prominently the Emperor Charles V and his son King Philip II of Spain. It was a time of intense religious controversy which gave rise to debates both on and off stage. These debates, far from damaging Rhetorician culture, actually stimulated its activities and development to such an extent that Rhetoricians became representative voices for their time. The admixture of entertainment and education offered by the Chambers to their own members - and to a wider public - was one which, though originating in a medieval context, soon became linked with humanist and Renaissance thinking. This volume illustrates how, as a consequence, the Chambers of Rhetoric contributed to the development in the Low Countries of an increasingly articulate society.
