  • Something Happened to the Future: Reconstructing Temporalities in Dutch Parliamentary Debate, 1814-2018

    Open AccessJ Van Eijnatten, Pim HuijnenARTICLEContributions to the History of…2021Cited by: 3

    This article stands in Reinhart Koselleck's tradition of investigating the historical experience of time. It focuses on the manner in which the experience and conceptualization of the future changed in Dutch parliamentary speech between 1814 and 2018. Based on a quantitative analysis of a corpus of political texts of more than 800 million tokens spanning more than two centuries, we argue that the future transformed from something unknown but prin…

    In this opening article, the editors of International Journal for History, Culture and Modernity provide an overview of recent debates relating to “modernity”, inviting prospective authors to participate in a reflexive conversation on this contested concept, which is, at the same time, a practical reality.

  • Religionis Causa: Moral Theology and the Concept of Holy War in the Dutch Republic

    Open AccessJ Van EijnattenARTICLEJournal of Religious Ethics2006

    The claim is widespread that the preservation, or reintroduction, of Western traditions of holy war in the post‐Reformation period was due mostly to Protestantism, especially in its Calvinist variety. This paper makes a case for examining the thought of a much broader selection of minor intellectuals on just and holy war than is usually done, and to do so in other national contexts than exclusively the English Puritan one. To test the apparently …

  • Bilderdijk's Head Meta-medical Reflections of an Afflicted Poet

    J Van EijnattenARTICLESocial History of Medicine2005Cited by: 1

    The controversial Dutch poet and thinker, Willem Bilderdijk (1756-1831), filled his letters with observations on his own health and well-being. These frequent appraisals of his physical and mental condition served as 'meta-medical' reflections by which he enhanced his self-understanding and 'constructed' his own self. In more than 1,500 published letters that Bilderdijk wrote to different correspondents in the course of five decades, he makes it …

  • The Eighteenth-Century Dutch ‘Toleration’ Debate: Some Considerations With Regard to Contemporary Approaches

    J Van EijnattenARTICLEDutch Crossing1998

    There is a tendency in Dutch historiography to interpret the ‘eighteenth-century Dutch toleration debate’ in terms of its outcome. Historians use anachronistic definitions, in particular the definition of toleration as the non-discrimination of ‘otherness’; they often presuppose an erroneous distinction between irenicism (church unity) and toleration (social unity); they approach toleration exclusively through religious and moral categories; and …
