The Aldine Edition of the Ancient Greek Epistolographers: Roots and Legacy
by Julene Abad Del Vecchio
This special issue of the Bulletin of the John Rylands Library is devoted to the Aldine edition of the Ancient Greek epistolographers. Published in Venice in 1499 by Aldus Manutius, the Aldine edition was the first printed edition of most of the thirty-six Greek letter collections that it contains. As such, it embodies the intersection between the medieval epistolary anthologies that predated it and the printed editions of Greek epistolographic collections that followed, which were primarily based on its text. In recent decades, the Aldien edition has been the subject of important works, which have sought to analyse its contents and sources. This issue explores the Aldine edition from three perspectives: its relationship to the epistolary collections found in medieval manuscripts, its relationship to the printed editions that followed it and its legacy and value for the modern scholar studying Ancient Greek epistolography.

Antisemitisme - een 21e eeuwse geschiedenis
by Remco Ensel
Where does freedom of speech end and do insults, threats, and hate speech begin? Why does a rapper sing that more Muslims than Jews were killed during the Holocaust? This book addresses the 21st century wave of anti-Semitic incidents in the streets and on the internet, the distortions of historic commemoration in our country and the problems with education about the Holocaust. It is an incisive analysis of a multicultural drama in which anti-Jewish statements play a crucial role. By going back in time, Remco Ensel puts the new anti-Semitism in the context of post-war history of protest and provocation. From the student protests in the sixties to the Second Intifada, from ‘zionazi’ to ‘Adolf Sharon’, the Rushdie affair to Mohammed B. The book is based on extensive archival research in Morocco and the Netherlands and on conversations with journalists and politicians, such as Bertus Hendriks, Job Cohen, Elatik Fatima Ahmed Marcouch, Ronny Naftaniel and many others.

A resident of the Rosa Spier house in Laren takes us through various stages of life. It will be shown including aspects that were previously hidden from us, but they have a major impact on our daily lives, such as the Skull & Bones and Freemasonry. The book is a hybrid of the description of a part of the personal life of the author and a description of his quest for the Beautiful in all its forms. ---------------- Een bewoner van het Rosa Spier Huis in Laren voert ons door allerlei fasen van het leven. Er worden o.a. aspecten getoond die eerder voor ons verborgen waren, maar die van grote invloed zijn op ons leven van alledag, zoals die van de Skull & Bones en van de Vrijmetselarij. Het boek is een mengvorm van de beschrijving van een deel van het persoonlijke leven van de auteur en een beschrijving van zijn zoektocht naar het Schone in al zijn vormen.
