Welcome to Dutch Historian

Dutch Historian aims to serve as an online outlet for scholarship examining the history of the Netherlands, from the earliest times to the present. Posts will not follow the typical blog format of seemingly random daily thoughts but shall instead comprise serialized scholarly articles. Every effort will be made to reduce the number of notes so as to make posts easier to read online, as well as to encourage reader comments and questions. Lively discussion will, it is hoped, inspire contributors and readers alike to a greater depth of insight.

The first article explores the idea of maternity in illustrated prints and pamphlets concerning the upbringing of William III, prince of Orange, during the years of his minority, 1650-1672.
