Abstract

Cornelius von Baerle lives only to cultivate the elusive black tulip and win a magnificent prize for its creation. But when his powerful godfather is assassinated, the unwitting Cornelius becomes caught up in a deadly political intrigue. Falsely accused of high treason by a bitter rival, Cornelius is condemned to life in prison. His only comfort is Rosa, the jailer's beautiful daughter, who helps him concoct a plan to grow the black tulip in secret. As Robin Buss explains in his informative introduction, Dumas infuses his story with elements from the history of the Dutch Republic (including two brutal murders) and Holland's seventeenth-century tulipmania phenomenon.

Abstract

Alexandre Dumas's novels are notable for their suspense and excitement, their foul deeds, hairsbreadth escapes, and glorious victories. In The Black Tulip (1850), the shortest of Dumas's most famous tales, the real hero is no Musketeer, but a flower. The novel - a deceptively simple story - is set in Holland in 1672, and weaves the historical events surrounding the brutal murder of John de Witte and his brother Cornelius into a tale of romantic love. The novel is also atimeless political allegory in which Dumas, drawing on the violence and crimes of history, makes his case against tyranny and

Abstract

Over de Tulpenkoorts van 1636/1637 gaan de wildste verhalen, maar de waarheid is minder opzienbarend. Voor de prijs van een tulpenbol kon je zeker geen Amsterdams grachtenhuis kopen, er waren geen grootschalige faillissementen en niemand is van wanhoop in de gracht gesprongen. Dit boek vertelt wat er wel gebeurde in de eerste helft van de zeventiende eeuw, hoe de tulp van een gewild verzamelobject een handelsobject werd en daarna een speculatieobject. Hoe er eerst werd gehandeld in de bloeiende tulp, daarna in de bollen en tot slot in bollen die nog in de grond zaten en die door speculanten soms wel een aantal keren werden doorverkocht in de hoop op steeds grotere winsten. En wat er gebeurde, en niet gebeurde, toen de markt in februari 1637 instortte, tot vreugde van spotprentmakers en dichters van honende verzen. En hoe de tulp ook na 1637 een geliefd verzamelobject bleef waarvoor flinke prijzen werden betaald.00Exhibition: Museum de Zwarte Tulp, Lisse, The Netherlands (18.03. - 17.08.2023).

Abstract

The jargon of economics and finance contains numerous colorful terms for market-asset prices at odds with any reasonable economic explanation. Examples include "bubble," "tulipmania," "chain letter," "Ponzi scheme," "panic," "crash," "herding," and "irrational exuberance." Although such a term suggests that an event is inexplicably crowd-driven, what it really means, claims Peter Garber, is that we have grasped a near-empty explanation rather than expend the effort to understand the event.In this book Garber offers market-fundamental explanations for the three most famous bubbles: the Dutch Tulipmania (1634-1637), the Mississippi Bubble (1719-1720), and the closely connected South Sea Bubble (1720). He focuses most closely on the Tulipmania because it is the event that most modern observers view as clearly crazy. Comparing the pattern of price declines for initially rare eighteenth-century bulbs to that of seventeenth-century bulbs, he concludes that the extremely high prices for rare bulbs and their rapid decline reflects normal pricing behavior. In the cases of the Mississippi and South Sea Bubbles, he describes the asset markets and financial manipulations involved in these episodes and casts them as market fundamentals.

Abstract

In the 1630's the Netherlands was gripped by tulipmania: a speculative fever unprecedented in scale and, as popular history would have it, folly. We all know the outline of the story—how otherwise sensible merchants, nobles, and artisans spent all they had (and much that they didn't) on tulip bulbs. We have heard how these bulbs changed hands hundreds of times in a single day, and how some bulbs, sold and resold for thousands of guilders, never even existed. Tulipmania is seen as an example of the gullibility of crowds and the dangers of financial speculation. But it wasn't like that. As Anne
