Urban History Writing in Northwest Europe (15th-16th centuries)
Brepols, 2019 Hardback, 231 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:20 b/w, 6 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503583761.
¶ Summary This volume aims at taking the first steps towards a revaluation of urban historiography in Northwest Europe, including rather than excluding texts that do not fit common definitions. It confronts examples from the Low Countries to well-studied cases abroad, in order to develop new approaches to urban historiography in general. In the authors' view, there are no fixed textual formats, social or political categories, or material forms that exclusively define 'the urban chronicle'. Urban historiography in pre-modern Western Europe came in many guises, from the dry and modest historical notes in a guild register, to the elaborate heraldic images in a luxury manuscript made on commission for a patrician family, to the legally founded political narrative of a professional scribe in an official town chronicle. The contributions in this volume attest to the diversity of the 'genre' and look more closely at these texts from a broader, comparative perspective, unrestrained by typologies and genre definitions. It is mainly because of these hybrid guises, that many examples of urban historiography from the Low Countries for instance succeeded in going unnoticed for a considerable amount of time. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Jan Dumolyn and Anne-Laure Van Bruaene [Both University of Ghent] - Urban Historiography in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe Chapter 1: Questioning genre and typologies Marco Tomaszewski [University of Freiburg] - Constructing Urban Historiography. The Edition Basler Chroniken and the Beinheim Manuscript Ina Serif [University of Freiburg] - Urban chronicles - urban consciousness? On the chronicle of Jakob Twinger von Königshofen in new codicological contexts Jenine de Vries [University of Durham] - It's not just about chronicles. The variety of forms of historical writing in late medieval towns in England and the Southern Low Countries. Paul Trio [KU Leuven] - Ypres as a historiographical breeding ground in late medieval Flanders. Origin and interconnectedness of urban and regional historiography Chapter 2: The memory of conflict: the social and political context of urban historiography Laura Crombie [University of York] - Records and rumours from Tournai; Jehan Nicolay's account of a town at war and the construction of memory Tineke Van Gassen [University of Ghent] - The Diary of Ghent: between urban politics and late medieval historiography Bram Caers and Lisa Demets [University of Antwerp/University of Utrecht; and University of Ghent] - Opposing reports on loyalty and rebellion.

Writing Royal Entries in Early Modern Europe,
Turnhout, Brepols, 2012 Hardback, approx. X+450 p., 20 b/w ill. + 1 colour ill., 3 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503536026.
¶ Royal and ducal entries into major cities were an important aspect of political life in Renaissance and early modern Europe and the New World. The festivities provided an opportunity for the municipal authorities to show off their wealth, learning, political nous, and aspiration while allowing writers, painters, sculptors, architects, set-designers, scene-painters, dancers, musicians, choreographers, and others an unparalleled opportunity to showcase their wares. The essays in this volume cover a range of royal and ducal entries, some well documented and well known, others less so, some barely documented at all. Each essay tackles an aspect of the business of putting together an entry festivity, discusses a particular difficulty posed for the contemporary scholar by the extant documentation, or offers a consideration of issues central to the development of this type of festivity or the literature associated with it. The entries and royal progresses of members of the Habsburg, Medici, Valois, Bourbon, and Tudor dynasties are examined, as are the festivities commissioned and mounted by powerful and strategically important cities such as Berlin, Antwerp, Paris, Florence, London, and Mexico City to welcome these great personages or their marginally less great ducal representatives. Languages : English, French.

Frank Cass, London 1996, viii,207pp. Illustrated. Hardcover, with dust jacket. In very good condition. A comprehensive survey of the clandestine newspapers, and those who distributed them, produced in an effort to counter Nazi propaganda and maintain morale in enemy-occupied Europe during WWII, despite the horrendous risks involved.

Writers and publishers too refused to be silenced, and many found lasting fame through clandestine book.
