The Dutch Cholera Epidemic of 1832 as seen through 19th Century Medical Publications

2021 || Paperback || Antoinette van der Kuyl || Eburon || met inkijkexemplaar

When cholera hit the small village of Scheveningen on the west coast of Holland in June 1832, it took everybody by surprise. It had been generally assumed that the deadly disease would come from the east. From India the pandemic had spread throughout Asia, reaching Russia, Poland, then Prussia…… Soldiers had fired their rifles to clear the air, ships had been quarantined, travellers had been stopped and questioned, all to no avail.

The first cases of cholera in the Netherlands were fierce...

Ancient Egypt

Cradle of Early Christianity

2021 || Paperback || Tjeu van den Berk || Eburon || met inkijkexemplaar

The earliest Christian myths emerged in the melting pot of Gnostic Alexandria, not in orthodox Jerusalem, classical Athens or legalistic Rome. In this book, Tjeu van den Berk traces the sources of the Christian faith to the banks of the river Nile.

In terms of symbolism, the Christian religion is virtually identical to that of the ancient Egyptians. From the perspective of religious history, we can agree with the theologian Eugen Drewermann who described ‘ a complete dependence of Christia...

Solitary Persons?

The Conceptualisation of Autism as a Contact Disorder by Frankl, Asperger, and Kanner

2022 || Paperback || Frederik Boven || Eburon || met inkijkexemplaar

Solitary Persons? describes the autism theories of George Frankl (1897-1975), Hans Asperger (1906-1980) and Leo Kanner (1894-1981). These medical doctors were among the first to work with autistic children. Frankl’s role in the history of autism was discovered in 2015 and is clarified here. Asperger and Kanner are well-known founders of autism research, but this dissertation presents new discoveries about their work and a new interpretation of their work as a whole.

Frankl, Asperger and Kan...

Metamorphoses / druk 1

the art of the virtuoso piano transcription

|| Paperback || Rian de Waal || Eburon

Rian de Waal (1958-2011) has written a book about the piano, and how the development of piano playing has been very much dependent upon musicians who were able to cross borders. In 'Metamorphoses, the Art of the Virtuoso Piano Transcription', De Waal takes us on a journey through the capricious history of the piano transcription. At first revered by musicians and audience alike (and often the sole reason for the great fame of some pianists), the piano transcription later became despised and c...

Research between Science, Society and Politics

The History and Scientific Development of Green Chemistry

2023 || Paperback || Johan Alfredo Linthorst || Eburon

But contemporary public debates on chemistry have been quite critical, mainly for environmental reasons. Therefore is it interesting to note that in the course of the 1990s “green chemistry” emerged. The origins, scientific meaning and drivers behind the spectacular growth of that new field are the subject of "Research between Science, Society and Politics: The History and Scientific Developmen...
