Founding large charities and community building in the Dutch Republic, c. 1600–1800
In this contribution, we study the founding of large charities for the elderly during the Dutch Republic, demonstrating their number and nature, with an emphasis on how almshouses for the elderly were intricately bound up with the concern to preserve honour. Personal honour, being tied to community honour, formed a vital part of the processes of patronage and corporatism that defined early modern Dutch society. Through almshouse foundations the r…
Ordinary People in the New World
Between 1656 and 1664 the City of Amsterdam, uniquely, possessed a “City Colony” in the Dutch colony of New Netherland. Called New Amstel, this fledgling colony on the South River—the current Delaware—for a brief time cemented the commitment of Amsterdam to the preservation of the Dutch colony in New Netherland, perpetually—and fatally—under threat from English encroachment. Born out of the anxiety of the Dutch West India Company, which saw the n…

This article presents a case study of the founders of almshouses for the elderly in the Dutch city of Leiden during the late middle ages and the early modern age. First, an overview of Leiden's almshouses is given and an assessment made of their importance for the elderly. Next, a prosopography of Leiden's almshouse founders is presented, and reasons for founding almshouses discussed, focusing on religion, status, and the support of one's nearest…
Almshouses in England and the Dutch Republic circa 1350-1800
officer in the Dutch army, whom she had raised after the early death of her sister, died in the Dutch city of Delft, aged only 27. Maria de Pottere and Sir John had no children, nor, apparently, any other close heirs. Maria herself died less than two months later, in July 1650, spending the remaining few months of her life, inter alia, on the construction of a splendid tomb for her parents and for her nephew in the parish church of Zierikzee, on …
The Trials and Travels of Willem Leyel
Between Sin and Salvation
There have been few attempts systematically to study the ethics of work in the early modern age on the basis of contemporary sources. Such a study should start with case studies of individual thinkers, as stepping stones to a more comprehensive study of the ethics of work. This article provides such a case study, of the seventeenth-century Dutch artisan Pieter Plockhoy (c.1620–1664). As will be shown, work was a central component of Plockhoy's ph…
