    Abstract: This much-awaited second volume investigates the changes in subject, method and institutional context of the humanistic disciplines around 1800, offering a wealth of insights for specialists and students alike. Point of departure is the pivotal question whether there was a paradigm shift in the humanities around 1800 or whether these changes were part of a much longer process. The authors provide an overarching perspective including philology, musicology, art history, linguistics, historiography, philosophy and literary theory. They also make clear that the influence from the East, from the Ottoman Empire to China, was crucial for the development of the European humanistic disciplines
    Abstract: Dit boek onderzoekt de ontwikkelingen in de geesteswetenschappen vóór en na 1800. Er wordt vaak gesteld dat rond 1800 de alfawetenschappen een ‘humanisering’ van hun onderwerpen en methodes ondergingen. The Making of the Humanities Vol. 2 toont echter aan dat het strikte onderscheid tussen mens- en natuurwetenschappen de uitkomst was van een proces dat al in de zeventiende eeuw begon. Als er al sprake was van een revolutie, dan vond deze eerder op een institutioneel dan op een conceptueel niveau plaats. Dit is het tweede deel van de serie gewijd aan de geschiedenis van de geesteswetenschappen

    Abstract: What was the cultural impact of early meetings between Chinese and Europeans? This book explores visual, literary, and scholarly representations of the Celestial Empire and Western countries against the backdrop of actual encounters. Based on rare Chinese and, correspondingly, European (especially Dutch) sources and archival documents, the volume covers a range of cultural expressions from the applied arts to philosophy. Special attention goes to the ideals and realities of trade and diplomacy of the Dutch East India Company in China. Foreign Devils and Philosophers approaches global history from a cultural perspective and illuminates the reciprocal dynamic of aversion and admiration: Chinese and Westerners could appear as sages or savages in each other’s eyes

    Abstract: While it is clear that around 1800 the humanities as a discipline rose to prominence, it is less clear what the exact nature of this shift in academia was. Was it a sudden revolution caused by a momentary but powerful change in the zeitgeist or the turning point of a much longer process? In this volume, the editors have selected a series of essays that look at the origins of the humanities and find that long before 1800 the concept of the humanities was already at the fore. The shift around 1800 was thus mostly institutional, not theoretical. The Making of the Humanities traces this new findin

    Abstract: The versatile painter, poet, courtier and European traveller Samuel van Hoogstraten (1627-1678), one of Rembrandt's pupils, has received much scholarly attention in the last two decades. Whereas older historians allotted him a marginal role as a minor figure in his master's studio, he is now recognized for his central position in the world of art and letters in the Dutch Golden Age. This new evaluation is mainly due to careful studies of his treatise on painting, 'Inleyding tot de Hooge Schoole der Schilderkonst' (Introduction to the Academy of Painting, 1678). His book has been mined for unique insights not only into Rembrandt's working methods but also into profounder problems relative to Dutch art and culture, such as pictorial realism, imitation and illusion, the rise of landscape and still life and the status of the 'learned artist'

    Abstract: How did painters and their public speak about art in Rembrandt's age? This book about the writings of the painter-poet Samuel van Hoogstraten, one of Rembrandt's pupils, examines a wide variety of themes from painting practice and theory from the Dutch Golden Age. It addresses the contested issue of 'Dutch realism' and its hidden symbolism, as well as Rembrandt's concern with representing emotions in order to involve the spectator. Diverse aspects of imitation and illusion come to the fore, such as the theory behind sketchy or 'rough' brushwork and the active role played by the viewer's imagination. Taking as its starting point discussions in Rembrandt's studio, this unique study provides an ambitious overview of Dutch artists' ideas on painting
    Abstract: Waar ging het de Hollandse meesters om bij hun verbeelding van de werkelijkheid? Bevatten hun schilderijen verborgen betekenissen? Hoe verklaar je hun aandacht voor lichtval, spiegeling en materialen? Dit boek over het werk van de schilder en dichter Samuel van Hoogstraten, een leerling van Rembrandt, werpt nieuw licht op talrijke thema's uit de schilderpraktijk en -theorie van de Gouden Eeuw. Het behandelt het 'Hollandse realisme' met zijn vergankelijkheidsymboliek, evenals Rembrandts streven om emoties te verbeelden waarmee hij de beschouwer bij de voorstelling betrok. Opvattingen over imitatie en illusionisme blijken te zijn gebaseerd op filosofische motieven. Uitgaande van discussies in Rembrandts atelier, biedt The Visible World een ambitieus overzicht van de Nederlandse kunstopvattingen uit de zeventiende eeuw. The Visible World verschijnt in de "http://www.aup.nl/do.php?a=show_visitor_booklist&b=series&series=53"〉Amsterdamse Gouden Eeuw Reeks uitgegeven door Amsterdam University Press in samenwerking met het "http://cf.uba.uva.nl/goudeneeuw/"〉Centrum voor de Studie van de Gouden Eeuw

    Abstract: This book is the first step towards the development of a comparative history of the humanities. Specialists in philology, musicology, art history, linguistics, literary theory, and other disciplines highlight the intertwining of the various fields and their impact on the sciences. This first volume in the series The Making of the Humanities focuses on the early modern period. Different perspectives reveal how the humanities developed from the ‘liberal arts’, via the curriculum of humanistic schools, to modern disciplines. The authors show in particular how discoveries in the humanities contributed to a secular world view, pointing up connections with the scientific revolution. The main themes are: the humanities versus the sciences; the visual arts as liberal arts; humanism and heresy; language and poetics; linguists and logicians; philology and philosophy; the history of history. Contributions come from a selection of internationally renowned European and American scholars, including Floris Cohen, David Cram, and Ingrid Rowland. The book offers a wealth of insights for specialists, students, and those interested in the humanities in a broad sense
    Abstract: Zoals blijkt uit een beruchte opmerking van Ronald Plasterk dat ‘alfa’s de geschiedenis schrijven, en beta’s de geschiedenis maken’, is de invloed van de alfawetenschappen lange tijd onderschat. Dit boek is een eerste stap tot een overzichtsgeschiedenis van de humaniora. Specialisten uit verschillende vakgebieden bieden een vergelijkende geschiedenis van de taalkunde, filologie, muziekwetenschap, historische wetenschappen, logica en literatuurwetenschap. Dit eerste deel uit de serie The Making of the Humanities richt zich op de vroegmoderne tijd. Verschillende perspectieven maken duidelijk hoe de geesteswetenschappen zich ontwikkelden van ‘vrije kunsten’ tot moderne disciplines. Nieuw licht valt op de rol van de humaniora in de Wetenschappelijke Revolutie. Gerenommeerde auteurs uit Europa en Amerika, onder wie Floris Cohen, David Cram en Ingrid Rowland, bieden nieuwe inzichten voor zowel specialisten als geïnteresseerde leken, studenten en alfawetenschappers in de breedste zin van het woord
