Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The open access publication of this book was funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. This volume examines the sovereignty and autonomy of the city of Amsterdam in the seventeenth century. Amsterdam was part of the institutional landscape of the county of Holland and the Dutch Republic, though its economic power encompassed the globe and elevated its political clout at home. Analyzing aspects of the city's institutions, trade, art, and religion, the papers in this volume shed new light on Amsterdam's history during its "Golden Age". Contributors are: Bart Wallet, Janne E. Nijman, Marc de Wilde, Dave De ruysscher, Johannes W. Flume, Arjan de Koomen, Maurits den Hollander, Vincent van Hoof, Victor Le Breton Blon, and Tessa de Boer.
