Austrian Economics in Debate

By: Willem Keizer,Bert Tieben,Rudy Van Zijp

This book presents essays by an outstanding team of international specialists and covers a wide range of topics, including (inter alia) the relationships between the Austrian and Swedish theories of the business cycle, the on-going debates between Austrians and (Post) Keynesians, Schumpeter's 'Walrasian' stand in the socialist calculation debate, and the Austrian roots of Neo-Institutional economics. The studies stress the unique Austrian contributions to economic methodology and to the theory of entrepreneurship, while revealing unexpected methodological and philosophical similarities between, among others, Hayek and Marx.

The Forgotten Reign of the Emperor Jovian (363-364)

History and Fiction

By: Jan Willem Drijvers

This book is the first modern scholarly monograph on the emperor Jovian (363-364). It offers a new assessment of his reign and argues that Jovian's reign was of more importance than assumed by most (ancient and modern) historians. This study argues that Jovian restored the Roman empire after the failed reign of Julian by returning to the policies of Constantius II and Constantine the Great. Jovian's general strategies were directed to get the Roman empire on its feet again militarily, administratively and religiously after the failed reign of his predecessor Julian (361-363) as well as to establish more peaceful relations with the Sasanid empire. For an emperor who ruled only eight months Jovian had an unexpected and surprising afterlife. The rarely studied and largely unknown Syriac Julian Romance offers a surprising and different perspective on person and reign of Jovian. In the Romance Jovian is presented as the ideal Christian emperor and a new Constantine. But the Romance is also an important source for Roman-Persian relations and the positioning of Syriac Christianity in the late antique world of Christendom"--

Introduction to Reformed Scholasticism

By: Willem J. Van Asselt

This work supplies a long-standing need in the field of early modern studies by providing a basic introduction to Reformed Scholasticism. Although technical studies abound and interest in the subject continues to rise, until the appearance of this work by Willem van Asselt and his colleagues, students of history have lacked a concise guide to help them navigate the difficult waters of Reformed Scholasticism. This book carefully defines the phenomena of scholasticism and orthodoxy, concisely surveys the era, notes the most significant thinkers together with the various trajectories of thought, and references the relevant secondary scholarship. In short, this Introduction to Reformed Scholasticism surveys the topic and provides a guide for further study in early modern Reformed thought. Table of Contents: Introduction: What Is Reformed Scholasticism? – Willem J. van Asselt and Pieter L. Rouwendal The State of Scholarship: From Discontinuity to Continuity – Willem J. van Asselt and Pieter L. Rouwendal ‘As the Philosopher Says’: Aristotle – T. Theo J.

The Late Roman World and Its Historian

Interpreting Ammianus Marcellinus

By: Jan Willem Drijvers,David Hunt

Ammianus Marcellinus, Greek by birth but writing in Latin c. AD 390, was the last great Roman historian. His writings are an indispensable basis for our knowledge of the late Roman world. This book represents a collection of papers analysing Ammianus's writings from a variety of perspective, including Ammianus as historian of, and participant in, Julian's Persian campaign, his identification with traditional religious attitudes and values in Rome and his view of the Persian Magi. The contributors engage especially with the concept of self-identification. They address the tension of Ammianus' dual role as both 'outside' external narrator and at the same time and 'insider' to the contemporary experiences and events which make up his surviving history.

W.M. Dudok

By: Herman van Bergeijk,Willem Marinus Dudok

Willem Marinus Dudok (1884-1974) is regarded internationally as one of the most important Dutch architects. As director of Public Works and City Architect to Hilversum, Dudok realized in that municipality not only his world-famous City Hall but also a welter of smaller projects including public baths, a library, housing, schools, a sports park and a cemetery. It was in this period that Dudok developed his own idiom, marked by compositions of cubic volumes. Besides his Hilversum buildings, others he built in Rotterdam, Paris and Velsen have been the subject of great interest. They are regarded as exemplifying an architecture that appeals not only to the professional world but also to the public at large. This compact though lavishly illustrated volume gives a complete overview of the major works by this architect who succeeded in striking a unique balance between modernism and tradition.

Ernest Mandel

A Rebel’s Dream Deferred

By: Jan Willem Stutje

Ernest Mandel (1923-1995), was one of the most prominent anti-Stalinist Marxist intellectuals of his time. A political theorist and economist, his worldview was shaped by experiences in the Second World War as an underground political activist in Occupied Belgium and during his subsequent internment in a Nazi prison camp. Mandel's faith in human nature and in the working classes survived Nazi oppression and the murder of much of his family in the concentration camps. He retained his connection to his Jewish roots throughout his life, but believed that security and liberation for the Jewish people was best achieved through world revolution and universal emancipation rather than nationalism. A brilliant orator in several languages, Mandel was an indefatigable revolutionary militant and a key leader in the Fourth International, and he had an enormous impact on the thought and practice of the 1968 generation. His writings range from innovative economic and political theory to a study of the Second World War and have been published in over forty languages. His last major work, Late Capitalism, had an influence that reached from the social sciences into the humanities. Biographer Jan Willem Stutje, the first writer with access to Mandel's archives, has interviewed many of the leading figures in the story and unearthed a wealth of new material, detailing Mandel's arrest by the Nazis and his role in Latin American guerrilla warfare. He recounts Mandel's interactions with both scholars-Sartre, Ernst Bloch, Perry Anderson-and comrades-in-arms such as Che Guevara, Rudi Dutschke and Tariq Ali. The book also yields fascinating details of the man's sometimes tragic private life.

By: Willem Westerbeke

Dit boek geeft de getuigenissen weer van een groot aantal martelaren in het Romeinse Rijk, uit de periode vanaf de Apostelen tot 312.Het edict van Keizer Constantijn de Grote waarborgde godsdienstvrijheid.Blandina en Perpetua waren enkele van vele Christenen die om het geloof in Christus gemarteld en gedood werden. Blondina, een jonge slavin, werd gehecht aan een paal om opgegeten te worden door wilde dieren, maar ze wilden niet aanvallen. Herhaaldelijk gemarteld werd ze verstrikt in een net en vertrapt onder de voeten van een stier. De vervolgers gaven toe, dat ze nog nooit een vrouw zo veel hadden zien lijden.

REFORMATIE EN MARTELAREN IN SPANJE

By: Willem Westerbeke

Dit boek is samengesteld uit 4 andere boeken. Het voornaamste onderwerp is het lijden van martelaren om het Woord en het getuigenis van Christus. Velen zijn bezweken door de vreselijke dreigementen van marteling en verbranding. Het is alleen de kracht van Christus om te volharden tegenover kerkelijke machten die met helse pijn dreigen en de wereldlijke autoriteit die bezittingen roven en het lichaam doden. Hoe moedig hebben sommigen hun martelingen gedragen! Het is niet genoeg te betreuren dat de Reformatie die in enkele steden in Spanje zo moedig begon, totaal in het openbare leven werd uitgeroeid. Wij moesten onze vrijheid om de Reformatorische waarheid te belijden, wel dubbel waarderen!
