    How Jan van Leeuwen († 1378) was made an author. Opera omnia and authority

    No full text
    This paper seeks to explore the ways in which Jan van Leeuwen († 1378) – cook and writer of Middle Dutch mystical treatises, based at the priory of Groenendaal – was represented by the editors of his opera omnia. We do this by analysing the prologues, chapter titles, and nota’s contained in the manuscripts that feature his treatises in full. From the first edition – probably compiled during Van Leeuwen’s life – to the second – with textual witnesses from c. 1400 until c. 1550 – we discern several clear strategies that were used by the editors to signal to readers that Van Leeuwen’s writings were worthy of being collected, distributed and read as authoritative in mystical matters

    Carcinoma of Unknown Primary:Diagnostics and the Potential of Transoral Surgery

    No full text
    The topic of the unknown primary tumour in head and neck cancer (CUP) has been extensively studied. The increasing incidence of Human papillomavirus (HPV) related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) as well as the emerging role of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has led to revision and evolution of diagnostic and treatment paradigms. The concept of tongue base mucosectomy (TBM) has gained its place in the diagnostic pathway. The most recent considerations are described herein with regard to recent literature. An algorithm for patients with CUP is proposed with an emphasis on the role of transoral surgery

    Adaptation to climate related risks in managed river basins : diversifying land use and water management activities to adapt to climate related risks in the Netherlands and Hungary

    Het centrale thema van mijn onderzoek is aanpassing aan klimaatverandering in rivierstroomgebieden. De wetenschappelijke literatuur over aanpassing aan klimaatverandering besteedt veel aandacht aan klimaateffecten, kwetsbaarheid en barrières voor aanpassing. Veel minder is bekend over de voorwaarden die het mensen mogelijk maakt zich in de praktijk aan te passen. Begrip van deze voorwaarden is echter van cruciaal belang voor het duurzaam realiseren van klimaataanpassing. Deze studie conceptualiseerde aanpassing aan klimaatverandering als het proces waarin actoren strategieën ontwikkelen en implementeren om een bepaalde doelstelling te halen. Wat betreft participatie, bevestigde de Hongaarse studie, dat samenwerking in de beleidsvoorbereiding ten goede kwam aan de eensgezindheid en het begrip tussen partijen

    THE PAST, THE OTHERS, HIMSELF: THE OPEN DIALOGUE OF A MEDIEVAL LEGAL AUTHOR WITH HIS TEXT

    No full text
    The relationship of the medieval lawyers with their doctrinal texts was very different from today: focusing on the meaning of the past, of collective science, and of multiple versions in the composition of medieval legal commentaries, I’ll try to point out some of the thorniest issues posed by the editing of medieval legal texts, using a diachronic perspective

    In unam pacis accordantiam. The role of city poet Jan Smeken and other rhetoricians in organizing the Brussels entry

    No full text
    Abstract: In this contribution, we want to discuss the role that the Brussels rhetoricians played in the organization of joyous entries and other festivities such as the baptism of a princess. More specifically, we will show how Jan Smeken \u2013 who was the city poet from 1485 until his death in 1517 \u2013 and some of the rhetoricians closest to him (Johannes Pertcheval, Jan van den Dale) took the lead in the organization and how they involved the four chambers of rhetoric of Brussels, as well as the archers of the greater Crossbowmen\u2019s guild (who were very active culturally as well). Unfortunately, we do not have city accounts for December 1496, but the involvement of Smeken cum suis in festivities such as Joanna\u2019s entry is detailed in the city accounts from 1485-1486 and from 1497 onwards (the entries of Maximilian and Frederick III in 1486, the baptism of Eleanor in 1498, the arrival of young Charles in 1500). How central the contribution of Jan Smeken was, is shown by the first tableau in the entry of Joanna in 1496. The invention of music by Jubal and Tubal-Kain was depicted in a way that directly referred to the blazon of the city poet (an anvil with three hammers). The accompanying text states that this was done in unam pacis accordantiam. The same phrase, but in Dutch, was used in 1507 as the new slogan of \u2019t Mariacranske, the chamber of rhetoric that arose from a merger of De Lelie (of Jan Smeken) and De Violette (of Jan van den Dale). With reference to the Leemans manuscript, we will argue that it were the rhetoricians who assured the artistic and theatrical unity of the joyous entry. These rhetoricians were mostly members from the middle class, but some belonged to the clergy
