Jeremia is de profeet die na Jesaja kwam. Hij maakte de laatste veertig jaar van het koninkrijk Juda mee. Hij werd door God geroepen toen hij nog maar een jonge priester was. Het grootste deel van zijn leven moest hij nare boodschappen verspreiden over het aanstaande oordeel dat het zuidelijke rijk te wachten stond. Het noordelijke rijk bestaande uit tien stammen van Israël was al weggevoerd door de Assyriërs. Toen God Jeremia riep, heerste koning Josia nog in Juda. Hij was de laatste goede koning, die ervoor zorgde dat de God van Israël werd aanbeden en geen afgoden. In de dagen van Josia rustte de zegen van God nog op het land en het volk. Na zijn dood ging het volledig bergafwaarts met Juda. Jeremia kreeg de ondankbare taak om de leiders en de mensen te waarschuwen voor de straf die zou komen. Hij riep op tot bekering maar slechts weinig mensen luisterden. Toch bleef hij klagen en daarom wordt hij ook wel de ‘klagende profeet' genoemd. God gaat niet over één nacht ijs Veel mensen hebben moeite met de straffen van God. Of anders gezegd: waarom staat God dit toe of dat? Het boek Jeremia laat zien dat God niet over één nacht ijs ging. Hij had het volk via Mozes al gewaarschuwd wat er zou gebeuren als ze Hem zouden verlaten. De Judeeërs en Benjaminieten hadden gezien wat er gebeurd was met hun broeders en zusters in het noorden. Jesaja riep op tot inkeer en deze Jeremia nu ook. Maar de mensen luisteren niet. Jeremia wordt voor leugenaar uitgemaakt, zelfs gevangen gezet en gemarteld met stokslagen. Uiteindelijk, tot groot verdriet van de profeet, komen zijn woorden uit. Babylon neemt in 597 voor Christus de macht over. Koning Sedekia mag namens de Babylonische koning Nebukadnessar regeren. Zo'n tien jaar later komt Sedekia in opstand en wordt Jeruzalem opnieuw belegerd. Het is onduidelijk hoelang dit precies duurde, maar na 18 of zelfs 30 maanden viel de stad en werden talloze mensen meegevoerd naar Babel. Jeremia wist dat het ging gebeuren en maakte het lijden bovendien mee, al ging hij niet naar Babylon. Hij werd ontvoerd door een groep mensen die naar Egypte vluchtte en stierf daar. Het Bijbelboek Jeremia is geschreven door Baruch, een vriend, leerling en secretaris van Jeremia. God had Jeremia opdracht gegeven Zijn profetieën op te schrijven. Baruch voegde er ook verhalen over het leven van Jeremia aan toe. Het verhaal begint met de roeping van Jeremia. Net als Mozes verzet hij zich tegen de opdracht die God hem wil geven. Hij vindt zichzelf nog te jong, maar God zegt hem dat hij voor niemand bang hoeft te zijn, want Hij zal hem terzijde staan en redden. Jeremia accepteert de missie en profeteert iedere keer als God hem dat vraagt. Hij doet dat met bloemrijke taal. Zo wordt Israël vergeleken met een overspelige vrouw en de leiders worden corrupt genoemd. Door de afgoderij en gebrek aan integriteit is er veel onrecht in de samenleving. Weduwen, wezen, vreemdelingen en andere kwetsbare groepen worden uitgebuit en niet beschermd. Dat is een duidelijke overtreding van Gods wet. Er worden zelfs kinderoffers gebracht. Naderend oordeel Ondertussen gaat de tempeldienst gewoon door. Jeremia gaat naar de tempel en brengt Gods boodschap van een naderend oordeel. ‘Beter je leven, dan mogen jullie in dit land blijven wonen. Vertrouw niet op die bedrieglijke leus: “Dit is de tempel van de Heer!”,' zegt Jeremia. God is woest dat het volk denkt dat hen niets kan gebeuren en dat Zijn naam onteerd wordt. ‘Kijk maar eens naar wat Ik met het noordelijke volk heb gedaan', zegt God. Hij draagt Jeremia op zijn hoofd kaal te scheren - een schande in die tijd - en het haar weg te gooien. Op diezelfde manier zal God zich ontdoen van Juda. Een leger dat komt uit het noorden zal de tempel verwoesten. Later wordt duidelijk dat het hier om Babylon gaat. Inmiddels heeft Babylon een nieuwe koning gekregen, Nebukadnessar. In het eerste jaar van zijn regering laat God Jeremia aan de inwoners van Jeruzalem vertellen dat de Babylonische legers eraan komen en dat het volk zeventig jaar in ballingschap moet doorbrengen. Babylon is als een beker met wijn. De beker is tot de rand gevuld met Gods rechtvaardige woede vanwege alle misstanden, zonden en afgoderij. Hoofdstuk na hoofdstuk vertelt Jeremia wat het volk te wachten staat. Maar de Babylonische opmars zou niet alleen een straf voor Israël zijn. Ook de omringende landen, die net zo min doen wat God van hen verlangt, zullen ten prooi vallen aan dit nieuwe wereldrijk. Gedichten van hoop Te midden van deze zwarte bladzijden uit de menselijke geschiedenis vinden we ook gedichten van hoop. God bevestigt aan Jeremia wat hij ook al tegen Mozes zei: dat Hij Zijn kinderen niet in de steek zal laten. Het volk zal uiteindelijk terugkeren. Er zal een nieuw verbond worden gesloten tussen God en mens. Uiteindelijk zal datgene gebeuren wat de wet niet voor elkaar kan krijgen: het hart van de mens wordt veranderd. ‘Maar dit is het verbond dat Ik in de toekomst met Israël zal sluiten – spreekt de HEER: Ik zal Mijn wet in hun binnenste leggen en Hem in hun hart schrijven. Dan zal Ik hun God zijn en zij Mijn volk. Men zal elkaar niet meer hoeven te onderwijzen met de woorden: “Leer de HEER kennen,” want iedereen, van groot tot klein, kent Mij dan al – spreekt de HEER. Ik zal hun zonden vergeven en nooit meer denken aan wat ze hebben misdaan.' (Jeremia 31:33-34) En ook: ‘De dag zal komen – spreekt de HEER – dat Ik de belofte die Ik het volk van Israël en Juda heb gedaan, gestand zal doen. Op die dag, in die tijd, zal ik aan Davids stam een rechtmatige telg laten ontspruiten, die recht en gerechtigheid in het land zal handhaven. Dan wordt Juda verlost en de inwoners van Jeruzalem zullen in vrede leven. En de naam van de stad zal zijn “De HEER is onze gerechtigheid”. Want dit zegt de HEER: Er zal altijd een nakomeling van David op de troon van Israël zitten en er zullen altijd Levitische priesters zijn die mij dienen, die brandoffers zullen brengen, graanoffers zullen opdragen en vredeoffers zullen bereiden.' (Jeremia 33:14-18) Er zal dus een Verlosser komen, een Gezalfde. En als Hij er is, dan zullen de andere volken de God van Israël als de enige ware God erkennen. Voor het zover is, volgt eerst het oordeel over Israël en de omringende landen, uitgevoerd door Babylon. Dat God Babylon gebruikt, wil niet zeggen dat God hun geweld, hun misdaden en hun zonden goedkeurt. Integendeel. De koning van Babylon - zo blijkt later - ziet zichzelf ook als een gelijke van God. En dus zal God uiteindelijk ook Babylon oordelen. Later worden ze verslagen door de Perzen. Aan het einde van Jeremia zien we hoe alle voorspellingen uitkomen en hoe Jeruzalem en de tempel worden verwoest. Het boek eindigt echter met vrijwel hetzelfde slothoofdstuk als 2 Koningen. Er wordt verteld hoe koning Jojachin van Juda, na 37 jaar gevangenschap, gratie krijgt van de koning van Babylonië. Deze afstammeling mag voortaan aan het hof wonen. En zo blijft de hoop levend.

If you are reading this, it's probably hard—nearly impossible—to imagine a world without writing—without print, books, newspapers, signs, graffiti, advertisements, forms, letters, texts, internet memes, and New Books Network blogposts like this one. How would you do your work? How would you communicate with your friends and family? How would you learn about the world around you? The historians in this conversation have written path-breaking books that deepen our understanding of an age when the written word was still emerging as a feature in everyday life. These books focus on different places—Russia and the Netherlands—where writing and print emerged quite differently but they share a deep erudition and ambitious methodological creativity in endeavoring to account for the ephemeral. Simon Franklin is emeritus professor of Russian history at University of Cambridge, Clare College. His books include Writing Society and Culture in Early Rus, 950–1300 (2002), The Emergence of Rus, 750–1200 (1996), co-authored with Jonathan Shepard, and Information and Empire: mechanisms of Communication in Russia, 1600–1850 (2017), co-edited with Katherine Bowers. In The Russian Graphosphere, 1450–1850 (Cambridge UP, 2019) Franklin reconstructs with deep erudition and carefully contextualized sleuthing the concrete and conceptual ways in which people in Russia from the mid-sixteenth to mid-nineteenth centuries encountered various types of writing. Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen are historians at University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Pettegree's books include The Invention of News (2014), Brand Luther: 1517, printing and the making of the Reformation (2015), and most recently, The Book at War: Libraries and Readers in an Age of Conflict (2023). Arthur der Weduwen followed up his award-winning first monograph, Dutch and Flemish Newspapers of the Seventeenth Century with the newly released State Communication and Public Politics in the Dutch Golden Age (2023). As has Simon Franklin, they have brought great creativity to the history of texts. Known for its now world-famous still life paintings produced by the affluent incubator of capitalism that was the seventeenth-century Netherlands, Bookshop of the World: Making and Trading Books in the Dutch Golden Age (Yale UP, 2020) shows us that what was going onto the canvases in the Dutch Golden Age paled in comparison to what was coming off the printing presses. With many unexpected revelations, this ambitious attempt to account for the (perhaps?) countless texts that did not survive demonstrates how the production, distribution, and consumption of books was central to economic, political, and cultural life in seventeenth-century Netherlands. They continue to collaborate on the Universal Short Title Catalogue and have also co-authored The Library: A Fragile History (2021).

If you are reading this, it's probably hard—nearly impossible—to imagine a world without writing—without print, books, newspapers, signs, graffiti, advertisements, forms, letters, texts, internet memes, and New Books Network blogposts like this one. How would you do your work? How would you communicate with your friends and family? How would you learn about the world around you? The historians in this conversation have written path-breaking books that deepen our understanding of an age when the written word was still emerging as a feature in everyday life. These books focus on different places—Russia and the Netherlands—where writing and print emerged quite differently but they share a deep erudition and ambitious methodological creativity in endeavoring to account for the ephemeral. Simon Franklin is emeritus professor of Russian history at University of Cambridge, Clare College. His books include Writing Society and Culture in Early Rus, 950–1300 (2002), The Emergence of Rus, 750–1200 (1996), co-authored with Jonathan Shepard, and Information and Empire: mechanisms of Communication in Russia, 1600–1850 (2017), co-edited with Katherine Bowers. In The Russian Graphosphere, 1450–1850 (Cambridge UP, 2019) Franklin reconstructs with deep erudition and carefully contextualized sleuthing the concrete and conceptual ways in which people in Russia from the mid-sixteenth to mid-nineteenth centuries encountered various types of writing.

Libraries are historically the greatest transmitters of knowledge and culture for any civilization. From the appearance of the very first collection of manuscripts to the building of the greatest temples of books, libraries have risen – and invariably fallen – through the ages and throughout time, they've played many different roles and fulfilled a variety of functions, and continue to evolve as we speak.  What is the history of libraries, what is their role and how has that been changing? This is what my two guests today have written about. Professor Andrew Pettegree is a historian at Saint Andrews University where he specializes in the history of the book and media transformations, and Dr. Arthur der Weduwen is a Postdoctoral Fellow also at Saint Andrews University in Scotland. They co-wrote in 2021 an engaging and deeply researched book called “The Library: A Fragile History” where they investigate this institution throughout different eras and countries to reveal that libraries didn't always look like the ones we think about today, and also that they're a lot more fragile than we think. Here is a quick recap of the books mentioned throughout the episode: The Book At War, by Andrew Pettegree, published in 2023, which explores the role that books have played in conflicts. What is their favourite book that I've never heard of? Andrew: “Thurn und Taxis”, by Wolfgang Behringer (1990) Arthur: “The Forgotten Soldier”, by Guy Sajer (1965) What is the best book that they've read in the last 12 months? Andrew: “State Communications and Public Politics in the Dutch Golden Age” by Arthur der Weduwen (2023) and “The Bookseller of Inverness” by SG Maclean (2022) Arthur: “The Gates of Europe, a history of Ukraine”, by Serhii Plokhy (2015) What book disappointed them in the last 12 months? Arthur: “To Have and Have Not”, by Ernest Hemingway (1937) What book would they take to a desert island? Andrew: War and Peace, by Leo Tolstoy (1867) Arthur: Scoop, by Evelyn Waugh (1938) What book changed their mind? Andrew: “Thurn und Taxis” by Wolfgang Behringer (1990) Arthur: “Double Fold” by Nicholson Baker (2001) Find Andrew: Twitter: https://twitter.com/apettegree?lang=en Follow me ⁠@litwithcharles⁠ for more book reviews and recommendations!

Wie zich in de geschiedenis van weduwen verdiept, stuit op frappante verschillen met die van weduwnaars. Verlies van een levenspartner werd voor mannen vaak gezien als nieuwe vrijheid, voor vrouwen betekende het rampzalig statusverlies. Weduwen kregen speciale rouwrituelen en afzondering opgelegd, hun rouwkleren dienden als gevarendriehoek. Onbeheerde vrouwelijkheid baarde zo veel angst dat een weduwenvagina op slot moest. Mineke Schipper schreef een boek over deze nooit vertelde geschiedenis.

We kennen allemaal het klassieke beeld van de weduwe: zwart gewaad, gesluierd, zonder opsmuk. De sobere rouwkleding moest soms jarenlang gedragen worden. En de weduwnaar? Die had met onopvallende zwarte handschoenen en een zwarte das al snel aan zijn rouwplicht voldaan; klaar om opnieuw te trouwen. Want voor de man werd het verlies van een levenspartner gezien als ‘nieuwe vrijheid' en voor vrouwen als ‘rampzalig statusverlies'. Vanwaar dat grote verschil? En wat leert het ons om de weduwe nader te bestuderen? Literatuurwetenschapper Mineke Schipper dook in de duistere wereld van de weduwen en is te gast over haar boek Weduwen, een nooit vertelde geschiedenis.

In this interview, I'll be talking with Prof. Andrew Pettegree who co-authored The Library: A Fragile History with Arthur Der Weduwen. What I first thought was a self-explanatory symbol of scholarly righteousness I soon learned was an icon of the individual against the institution, a battleground of the “enlightened” elite and the “plebian” people, and a habitual testament of man's inborn desire to affect the world. And, these are just a few of the themes. Like all histories, the story of the library reveals not only the technologies and techniques that have brought us to our modern understanding of book collecting but also the human vices and virtues that have powered this progression.But, one question looms - do we still need public libraries in a digital world?Topics:Origin of public librariesPreservation of classicsHistory of censorship in the libraryHave public libraries really affected society?The future of libraries in an online worldA bibliophile's guide to organizing a libraryWhat books have had an impact on you?What advice do you have for teenagers?Andrew Pettegree, FBA is Professor of Modern History at the University of St Andrews and Director of the Universal Short Title Catalogue (an online bibliography of all books published in the first two centuries after the invention of print). He is the author of fifteen books in the fields of Reformation history and the history of communication including Reformation and the Culture of Persuasion (Cambridge University Press, 2005), The Book in the Renaissance (Yale University Press, 2010), The Invention of News (Yale University Press, 2014), Brand Luther (Penguin, 2015), The Bookshop of the World.

Perfect for book lovers, this is a fascinating exploration of the history of libraries and the people who built them, from the ancient world to the digital age. Famed across the known world, jealously guarded by private collectors, built up over centuries, destroyed in a single day, ornamented with gold leaf and frescoes, or filled with bean bags and children's drawings—the history of the library is rich, varied, and stuffed full of incident. In The Library, historians Arthur der Weduwen and Andrew Pettegree introduce us to the antiquarians and philanthropists who shaped the world's great collections, trace the rise and fall of literary tastes, and reveal the high crimes and misdemeanors committed in pursuit of rare manuscripts. In doing so, they reveal that while collections themselves are fragile, often falling into ruin within a few decades, the idea of the library has been remarkably resilient as each generation makes—and remakes—the institution anew. Beautifully written and deeply researched, The Library is essential reading for booklovers, collectors, and anyone who has ever gotten blissfully lost in the stacks. Martin's interview with Arthur der Weduwen was recorded on February 15th, 2022.

Travels Through Time

Of all the accomplishments of human civilisation, the creation of libraries, making the preservation and transmission of knowledge possible, is surely the greatest. In this episode the academics Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen take us back to 1850, a pivotal moment in the history of public libraries.  Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen's new book, The Library, A Fragile History, takes on the ‘long and tumultuous history' of these noble institutions, from the clay tablets of ancient Nineveh to the problematic Google Books project (inspired, like so many other attempts to ‘encompass the world's knowledge', by the library of Alexandria). This is an unflinching look at library history, one that does not shy away from the neglect, the destruction and the moments when knowledge was lost. Show Notes Scene One: London, The House of Commons. The debate surrounding the Public Libraries Act is in full swing, giving us the chance to understand what this act meant to the development of libraries, and why it failed to gain so little support outside Parliament.  Scene Two: Bordeaux, France. The great municipal library of Bordeaux, one of the finest public collections in France, and one of many similar Bibliotheques municipales. Although France had a system of public libraries that were, on paper, the envy of the world (due to the size and reputation of their collections), in reality they were tombs of books: rarely used, badly funded and frequently looted.  Scene Three: New York, USA. The famous public library building was still decades in the future, but New York had a highly diverse system of different libraries, for different publics, that explain why a great central collection was so long in the making.  Mementos: Arthur, One of the books stolen by Count Libri that went missing in the mists of time in order to return it to its rightful bibliothèque municipale. Andrew, mid 19th century ‘triple-decker' edition of The History of Pendennis by William Makepeace Thackeray.

In doing so, they reveal that while collections themselves are fragile, often falling into ruin within a few decades, the idea of the library has been remarkably resilient as each generation makes--and remakes--the institution anew.

After a turbulent political revolt against the military superpower of the early modern world, the tiny Dutch Republic managed to situate itself as the dominant printing and book trading power of the European market. The so-called Dutch Golden Age has long captured the attention of art historians, but for every one painting produced by the Dutch during the seventeenth century, at least 100 books were printed. In The Bookshop of the World: Making and Trading Books in the Dutch Golden Age (Yale UP, 2019), Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen present the untold story of how a group of family-owned businesses transformed the economics of printing and selling and conquered the European communications economy. This printing revolution helped to turn their pluralistic population into a highly literate and engaged society.  Andrew Pettegree (@APettegree) is Professor of Modern History at the University of St Andrews and Director of the Universal Short Title Catalogue. He is the author of over a dozen books in the fields of Reformation history and the history of communication including Reformation and the Culture of Persuasion (Cambridge University Press, 2005), The Book in the Renaissance (Yale University Press, 2010), The Invention of News (Yale University Press, 2014), and Brand Luther: 1517, Print and the Making of the Reformation (Penguin, 2015).  Arthur der Weduwen (@A_der_Weduwen) is a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of St Andrews and Deputy Director of the Universal Short Title Catalogue. He researches and writes on the history of the Dutch Republic, books, news, libraries and early modern politics. He is the author of Dutch and Flemish Newspapers of the Seventeenth Century (2 vols., Brill, 2017), and two books on early newspaper advertising in the Netherlands (both Brill, 2020). His latest project is The Library, A Fragile History, co-written with Andrew Pettegree and published by Profile in 2021.

After a turbulent political revolt against the military superpower of the early modern world, the tiny Dutch Republic managed to situate itself as the dominant printing and book trading power of the European market. The so-called Dutch Golden Age has long captured the attention of art historians, but for every one painting produced by the Dutch during the seventeenth century, at least 100 books were printed. In The Bookshop of the World: Making and Trading Books in the Dutch Golden Age (Yale UP, 2019), Andrew Pettegree and Arthur der Weduwen present the untold story of how a group of family-owned businesses transformed the economics of printing and selling and conquered the European communications economy. This printing revolution helped to turn their pluralistic population into a highly literate and engaged society.  Andrew Pettegree (@APettegree) is Professor of Modern History at the University of St Andrews and Director of the Universal Short Title Catalogue.

Over weduwen gesprokenIn de afgelopen dagen hebben we bij het thema van de wrekende God stilgestaan, maar vandaag willen we stilstaan bij het bredere perspectief van de psalm zoals we zojuist lazen in de eerste zeven verzen.De schrijver van de psalm klaagt het enorme machtsmisbruik aan dat hij overal om zich heef ziet plaatsvinden. Hij wil dat de God van recht en vergelding verschijnt. Hij vraagt G'd om als rechter op te treden. Laat Hij het verdiende loon geven aan hen die weerspannig zijn. En vraagt de Psalmist zich af: Hoe lang zal de triomf van de goddeloze duren? Hoe lang hun arrogantie en grootspraak? Het Hebreeuwse woord voor grootspraak hier is ‘amar' wat zoveel betekend als veel voor zichzelf te zeggen hebben'.Lees meer...Support the show (https://radioisrael.nl/geven/)
