Renaissance Commentaries on Tacitus (on K. Bovier, La Renaissance de Tacite)
Realist teachings
The aim of this article is to present a chronological overview of the political reception of Tacitus' works in the northern Low Countries from the early sixteenth century to the middle of the seventeenth century. Most of the types of Tacitism proposed in the introduction are represented in the Dutch context in one way or another. A characteristic of the Dutch Tacitism(s) as discussed here is that they appear to be at the heart of the connections …
Introduction
This introduction to the papers on Tacitism presented at the Renaissance Society of America's conference in Dublin in 2022, summarises some broader tendencies in the scholarship on Tacitism, and presents a provisional sketch of the contribution to that scholarship which the current Warsaw research group on Tacitism and its connected researchers are developing, as exemplified by the articles in this collection

Oldenbarnevelt and fishes. Satirical prints from the 12-years truce
This paper discusses the intended argument and conceptual backgrounds of two satirical engravings published during the Truce Conflicts in the Dutch Republic (ca. 1611–1621), with a special focus on the use of fish imagery and its political implications. The case under consideration shows a now historic perception of (giant) fishes employed for disparaging purposes in the context of a deeply polarised society over issues of religious orthodoxy and…
Hugo Grotius on the agglomerate polity of Philip II
The aim of this article is to look at an early 17th-century analysis of a prince’s management of an ‘agglomerate polity’ in order to obtain a view of its chief focuses, concerns, and terms of analysis. Four main types of issues appear (apart from Grotius’ general analysis of Philip’s person and policies, which are also discussed): 1. Acceptation and legitimacy of a prince who was perceived to ignore local customs, rights and interests of his vari…
Henry Savile's Tacitus and the English role on the Continent
This article argues that Henry Savile's widely admired Tacitus of 1591 should not be read as an implied call for a more aggressive English stance against Spanish advances on the Continent (as one recent article suggests), but precisely for a more restrained and prudential approach. Secondly, it calls into question the generally accepted view that Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex, played a prominent role in the composition of the book. It argues tha…
The Praelium Nuportanum by Isaac Dorislaus
This article investigates the Anglo–Dutch scholar and diplomat Isaac Dorislaus's sole published work, Praelium Nuportanum (PN; 1640), on the battle of Newport in 1600. After presenting some new or little known information about the work, it discusses PN's intellectual context and concludes that the work is a reminder of successful Anglo–Dutch cooperation in the past, of Dutch indebtedness to English assistance, and the Republic's importance as an…
Lipsius and Grotius
This article focuses on the Tacitist thought shared by Justus Lipsius and Hugo Grotius. Contrary to what his later works might suggest, in the years before the Dutch political crisis of 1618, Grotius appears willing to look at history and contemporary politics in terms of the Tacitist and reason-of-state-based categories defined in Lipsius's political works. A specific Lipsian inspiration seems present in Grotius's Amsterdam address of 1616, and …
Your Tacitism or mine? Modern and early-modern conceptions of Tacitus and Tacitism
The purpose of this article is to show, by the example of Hugo Grotius's Annales et Historiae de rebus Belgicis (AH), that the nature and content of the concept of Tacitism (Tacitist, Tacitean) in the period around 1600 was markedly different from modern perceptions of the style and political purport of Tacitus's works. This gap between current and early-modern conceptions of Tacitus is important to bear in mind for intellectual historians dealin…

In 1960 our late colleague and friend, Prof. P. G. van der Nat, defended his thesis at Leiden University. It was an edition with introduction, translation and commentary on Tertullian's De idololatria chs. 1-9. This was published in a provisional form and was intended to be inserted in an edition of the whole treatise. His early death in May 1977 prevented the execution of this plan. Among his papers we found the commentary with translation compl…

The Proem of the Annales of Ennius
In the last twenty.years serious doubts have arisen with regard to the correctness of the suggestion first made in 1863 by Karl Dilthey x) and adopted by Vahlen 2) and others, that the famous dream in the proem of Ennius' Annales is an imitation of the dream described in the prologue of Callimachus' Aitia. The adherents of this hypothesis followed Vahlen in postulating that Ennius had transferred to the ghost of Homer the role played in the Aitia…

Varro, Livy and Tertullian on the History of Roman Dramatic Art
At first sight the readers of this review may be surprised to find an article here which primarily deals with one of the most-discussed subjects of the history of early Roman literature. Still the author hopes that they will accept it as one more proof of the profit to be drawn from the interpretation of Christian authors for the investigation of problems of classic literature. In the discussion concerning the authority followed by Livy in his fa…

Observations on Tertullian's Treatise against Hermogenes
While preparing an English translation with notes of Aduersus Hermogenem, which is soon to be published as a volume of the series Ancient Christian Writers, and an edition of the Latin text which will appear in the collection Stromata edited by Professor Christine Mohrmann and Professor Johannes Quasten, I collected a number of observations which could not easily be included in either publication. In the first place they bear upon the sources of …

VERGIL AND THE SIBYL OF CUMAE BY J. H. WASZINK - - . --.-- .--.- -- It is nowadays almost generally assumed that Vergil founa a visit by Aeneas to the Sibyl of Cumae recorded in the legend of his hero 1). However, if we seek for evidence, we soon discover that the rightness of this supposition is usually taken for granted. As far as I know, an elaborate argument for this assertion is only given by Norden in his famous commentary which is the base…
