Instruction or reflection? ‘Lessons’ in Huygens’ Hofwijck Constantijn Huygens’ country house poem Hofwijck (written 1650-1651, first edition 1653) is usually regarded as a poem providing religious and moral instruction. The author has been called a moralist who ‘hands out one lesson after another’. This article challenges that view. Not only do the so-called ‘lessons’ seem quite trivial for the readers addressed by Huygens (‘friends’ and even ‘wise friends’), but also, in close reading and attention to the socio-cultural context, the poem turns out much less to ‘teach’ than to challenge and incite contradiction. It asks for an active reader.

Theatrical Adaptations of Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables in 19th-century Netherlands In the field of Adaptation Studies, in Anglo-Saxon countries and even more in the Netherlands, filming and not theatrical adaptation is focus of attention. In this article – a case study on Dutch theatrical adaptations of Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables – is shown what this type of historical research into ‘page-to-stage’ appropriations can yield. In the 1860s adaptations of Hugo’s famous novel received a lot of attention in Dutch newspapers. Most reviewers seem to sympathise with the social criticism, manifested in Les Misérables. The critical debate over this type of theatrical adaptations is enlightening for scholars interested in the grey area between popular and more elitist culture.

Speed Between the Wars. A. den Doolaard and the ‘Raging Pace of this Age’ Although speed became one of the most enticing new sensations in the first decades of the twentieth century, it was rather reluctantly embraced by official ‘high’ culture. Taking its cue from Enda Duffy’s thesis that speed was first introduced into culture via popular cultural forms such as the detective story or early film, this article analyses the role of speed in the interwar novels by the Dutch writer A. den Doolaard. It is argued that although his interwar novels gradually seem to turn away from the modern world dominated by speed (in favour of the slowness of rural places at the outskirts of civilization) they are all deeply engaged with the ideology of speed, its affinities with the modern process of the capitalist rationalisation of space, and the (im)possibility of escape. Furthermore, the ambiguous stance towards speed reveals something about the middlebrow position of these writings, which hover between legitimate culture and the popular imagination (exemplified, for instance, by the car race).
战争之间的速度。尽管在20世纪的头几十年里，速度成为最诱人的新感觉之一，但官方的“高级”文化却相当不情愿地接受了它。根据恩达·达菲(Enda Duffy)的理论，速度最初是通过流行文化形式(如侦探小说或早期电影)引入文化的，本文分析了荷兰作家a·登·杜拉德(A. den Doolaard)在两次世界大战之间的小说中所扮演的角色。有人认为，尽管他的两次世界大战之间的小说似乎逐渐背离了以速度为主导的现代世界(倾向于文明边缘农村地区的缓慢)，但它们都深深卷入了速度的意识形态，它与资本主义空间合理化的现代过程的密切关系，以及(不)逃离的可能性。此外，对速度的模棱两可的立场揭示了这些作品的一些中间立场，徘徊在合法文化和大众想象之间(例如，以汽车比赛为例)。
