Herman amersfoort (26 risultati)

Condizione: Good. First Edition. Bij het Beleg van Leiden, in 1574, stierf een derde van de bevolking. Nog jaarlijks herdenkt de stad het einde van deze belegering met hutspot, haring en wittebrood. Leiden staat niet alleen: steden zijn al duizenden jaren het toneel van strijd. Legendarisch is het beleg van het Griekse Troje, waaraan een houten paard een einde zou hebben gemaakt. Ruim 2000 jaar geleden bleef een Romeinse senator erop hameren dat `Carthago verwoest moest worden . In de tijd van de kruisvaarders was Jeruzalem het middelpunt van strijd niet voor het eerst, niet voor het laatst. De val van Constantinopel bracht het einde van het Byzantijnse Rijk. Ruim twee eeuwen later stonden moslims aan de poorten van het `roomse Wenen, een aanval die slechts met de grootste moeite kon worden afgeslagen. Ook in de moderne tijd lieten krijgsheren zich niet onbetuigd. In 1870 kreeg Parijs het zwaar te verduren; door honger werden zelfs de olifanten uit de dierentuin opgegeten. Verdun zal voor altijd verbonden blijven met de Eerste en Leningrad met de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Recentelijk werd zowel Sarajevo als Beiroet hevig getroffen. Het rijk ge?llustreerde Belaagd en belegerd bevat de verhalen van beroemde belegeringen uit de wereldgeschiedenis, van de Oudheid tot in onze tijd. Een schatkamer van verhalen over krijgskunst en overlevingsdrang, maar ook over mythe en folklore, en de mensen die achter de grote gebeurtenissen schuilgingen als tactisch brein, maar vooral ook als strijders en, niet te vergeten, als slachtoffers. Belaagd en belegerd kwam tot stand onder redactie van Herman Amersfoort (hoogleraar militaire geschiedenis), Hans Blom (hoogleraar Nederlandse geschiedenis, oud-directeur Nederlands Instituut voor Oorlogsdocumentatie), Dennis Bos (docent/onderzoeker Nederlandse geschiedenis) en Gijsbert van Es (NRC-redacteur).…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Illustrated. In May 1940, the Netherlands were overrun by German armed forces. The five-day campaign might seem to be a prime example of Blitzkrieg, which led shortly afterwards to the rapid and unexpected overthrow of France. This book, based on the newest scholarly research, argues that this is too simple a view. Even though the German assault on the Netherlands made use of tanks, aircraft and airborne troops, it was still a classic campaign against a weak opponent in a theater on the margins of Fall Gelb. In many instances, artillery and infantry were the decisive factors and it is debatable whether the bombing of Rotterdam can be seen as a precursor to the aerial terror campaigns against civilian populations that marked the later stages the Second World War.Contributors are H. Amersfoort, H.W. van den Doel, P.H. Kamphuis, P.M.J. de Koster, C.M. Schulten and J.W.M. Schulten.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Usually it is a foreign military threat or the geopolitical position of a country that attracts the most attention as a factor to explain the emergence of the national security policies of small, neutral powers like the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Norway and Switzerland in the period 1900-1940. While these factors may explain the similarities between these small states, they fail to make clear why there were such great differences between them. The authors of this volume argue that the internal politics and the politico-military strategic cultures of the countries are vital keys to understanding their divergent reactions to similar, or at least comparable, foreign military threats: World War I and German expansionism in the second half of the 1930s.The contributors are Maartje Abbenhuis, Michael Clemmesen, Kjeld Galster, Tom Kristiansen, Paul Moeyes, Williamson Murray, Michael Olsansky, Christian Paulin, Matthias Strohn, Anne Tjepkema, and Joost Vaessen.…
