Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn my podcast on this subject, I had an interesting conversation with Dr. Maurits den Hollander. In the blog-text accompanying the podcast we decided to post a short summary of our discussion at the end of the text below. This is my description of the fascinating history of the birth of Amsterdam as a city, based on the specific rights it received in the 12th and 13th century. As an introduction, Maurits den Hollander is a historian who specializes in legal and institutional developments in the late medieval and early modern period (around 1300 – 1700). Throughout his work, Maurits strives to embed legal developments into their broader social, economic, and cultural context, taking into regard both local, regional and global dimensions. In 2021, he defended his dissertation about insolvency legislation and practices in 17th century Amsterdam at Tilburg University. He continues to work at this institution as assistant professor of legal history. 1. Idea, research, author, and narration: Bob Wessels: linkedin.com/in/bobwessels2.
