Sommario/riassunto

Dutch society has enjoyed a reputation, or notoriety, for permissiveness from the sixteenth century to present times. The Dutch Republic in the Golden Age was the only society that tolerated religious dissenters of all persuasions in early modern Europe, despite being committed to a strictly Calvinist public Church. Professors R. Po-chia Hsia and Henk van Nierop have brought together a group of leading historians from the US, the UK and the Netherlands to probe the history and myth of this Dutch tradition of religious tolerance. This 2002 collection of outstanding essays reconsiders and revises contemporary views of Dutch tolerance. Taken as a whole, the volume's innovative scholarship offers unexpected insights into this important topic in religious and cultural history.

Sommario/riassunto

El Instituto del Próximo Oriente Antiguo (IPOA ) de la Universidad de Barcelona ha sido, durante décadas, la principal institución académica dedicada al estudio, la investigación y la promoción del orientalismo antiguo en España. Tras más de cuarenta años de trayectoria, ha llegado el momento de reconstruir y analizar su historia, desde la creación del Instituto de Estudios Orientales (precedente inmediato del IPOA ) en 1971, hasta el año 2012, momento en el qué una nueva



generación de orientalistas tomó el relevo de los fundadores en la dirección del mismo. El presente libro sirve como reconocimiento al trabajo llevado a cabo en pos de la construcción de una nueva disciplina, el orientalismo antiguo, en nuestra universidad: una auténtica tarea de visionarios.
