Gute, stabile Exemplare; Einbände stw. berieben u. gering beschabt; Seiten minimal nachgedunkelt. - 4 BÄNDE. - Englisch. - (History of the United Netherlands. 4 Bände. 1860 1867). - John Lothrop Motley (* 15. April 1814 in Dorchester, Massachusetts, heute ein Teil Bostons; 29. Mai 1877 in Frampton Court, Dorset, England) war ein amerikanischer Diplomat und Historiker. . Er schrieb zwei historische Romane über den englischen Abenteurer Thomas Morton, die er anonym veröffentlichte. Der Roman Morton's Hope enthält autobiographische Elemente und beschreibt in der Figur des Otto von Rabenmark Bismarck als eine nach außen rauflustige, nach innen aber sensible Persönlichkeit. Bald konzentrierte er sich aber vor allem auf das Studium der Geschichte der Niederlande. 1851 bis 1855 forschte er vor allem in Dresden, Brüssel und Den Haag, um Material zusammenzutragen. Die monumentalen Werke, die aus dieser Quellenarbeit hervorgingen, sind geprägt von unverhohlenem Antikatholizismus und der daraus folgenden Begeisterung für den Befreiungskampf der protestantischen Niederlande gegen Spanien. Die vier Bände von The Rise of the Dutch Republic wurden unter anderem auch ins Deutsche übersetzt und galten lange Zeit als Standardwerk. Wenn es auch für die Geschichtswissenschaft an Relevanz verloren hat, so ist Motleys Werk bis heute für seine stilistische Virtuosität und erzählerische Kraft bekannt. Daher findet es auch häufig Aufnahme in Werken zur Literaturgeschichte der USA . . (wiki) // THE indulgence with which the History of the Rise of the Dutch Republic was received has encouraged me to prosecute my task with renewed industry. A single word seems necessary to explain the somewhat increased proportions which the present work has assumed over the original design. The intimate connection which was formed between the Kingdom of England and the Republic of Holland, immediately after the death of William the Silent, rendered the history and the fate of the two commonwealths for a season almost identical. The years of anxiety and suspense during which the great Spanish project for subjugating England and reconquering the Netherlands, by the same invasion, was slowly matured, were of deepest import for the future destiny of those two countries and for the cause of national liberty. The deep-laid conspiracy of Spain and Rome against human rights deserves to be patiently examined, for it is one of the great lessons of history. The crisis was long and doubtful, and the health ---- perhaps the existence ---- of England and Holland, and, with them, of a great part of Christendom, was on the issue. History has few so fruitful examples of the dangers which come from superstition and despotism, and the blessings which flow from the maintenance of religious and political freedom, as those afforded by the struggle between England and Holland on the one side, and Spain and Rome on the other, during the epoch which I have attempted to describe. It is for this reason that I have thought it necessary to reveal, as minutely as possible, the secret details of this conspiracy of king and priest against the people, and to show how it was baffled at last by the strong self-helping energy of two free nations combined. The period occupied by these two volumes is therefore a short one, when counted by years, for it begins in 1584 and ends with the commencement of 1590. When estimated by the significance of events and their results for future ages, it will perhaps be deemed worthy of the close examination which it has received. With the year 1588 the crisis was past; England was safe, and the new Dutch commonwealth was thoroughly organized. It is my design, in two additional volumes, which, Avith the two now published, will complete the present work, to carry the history of the Republic down to the Synod of Dort. After this epoch the Thirty Tears' War broke out in Germany; and it is my wish, at a future day, to retrace the history of that eventful struggle, and to combine with it the civil and military events in Holland, down to the epoch when the Thirty Years' War and the Eighty Tears' War of the Netherlands were both brought to a close by the Peace of Westphalia.
