  • This Element sheds a new light on the ubiquitous yet complex notion of mimesis. By systematically comparing the social dynamics of the Dutch population at a given time with the social dynamics of characters in Dutch literary fiction published in the same period, it aims to pinpoint the ways in and the extent with which literary fiction either mirrors or shapes the societal context from which it emerged. While close-reading-based scholarship on this topic has been limited to qualitative interpretations of allegedly exemplary works, the present study uses the data-driven tools of social network analysis to systematically determine the imitative elements of the social dynamics of characters within larger-scale, representative collections of books of literary fiction.

  • Summary

    Chapter 2 describes the family in which he grew up. Both his parents were teachers, and his father Dirk Cornelis was a quite prominent figure in The Hague. Dirk Cornelis Tinbergen held a PhD in Dutch medieval literature and was part of progressive educational milieu that sought to renew pedagogical methods and the Dutch spelling. His mother stayed home after she had children, but she stimulated the societal awareness of Jan Tinbergen. He had four siblings, two of which also pursued scientific careers. Luuk and Niko Tinbergen were both successful biologists; Niko won a Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine in 1973, four years after Jan Tinbergen won the Nobel Prize in economics. It is argued that the family was an example of Bildungsbürgertum. In the education of the children there was ample attention to culture and the study of nature. Unlike his brothers, Jan had little appetite for outdoor life and from a young age was more drawn to the exact sciences and modern industry, in particular, the trams in The Hague.

  • LITERATURE ON DUTCH STATE PRACTICE IN THE FIELD OF PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW, 2007

  • S. Jansen, L. Wannet
  • Journal:
    Netherlands Yearbook of International Law / Volume 39 / December 2008
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 May 2009, pp. 459-488

  • This survey is intended to provide information for international lawyers, both in the Netherlands and abroad, on literature on Dutch State practice in the field of public international law published in and outside the Netherlands mainly by Dutch authors. A few articles not meeting these criteria are also included.

    Since NYIL 2007 the survey no longer focuses on all Dutch literature on public international law, but limits itself to (Dutch) literature dealing with Dutch State practice in the field of public international law. Thus the survey adapts itself more to the purpose of the Yearbook, i.e. providing information on the practice of the legislative, executive and judicial organs of the State of the Netherlands.

    Furthermore, ‘international law’ has been interpreted widely, so as to include related matters, if the work in question deals with international law considerations. Fiscal law, polemology and specific regulations under European law are generally not included. The survey lists books, articles, inaugural lectures, dissertations and reports.
