| Publisher Description: This volume resulted from the third interdisciplinary conference on Netherlandic Studies, where participants discussed and exchanged views on the Low Countries in past and present. Besides the glorious art history of the Low Countries, the history of the Dutch Language and musical and political life was discussed. Views on modern times were represented through presentations on modern Dutch theater, modern poetry and prose and the intricacies, delicacies and difficulties of the modern Dutch language, in original and translation. A special section was devoted to the history and position of the Dutch immigrants and their languages and position in American society in past and present. |
