Abstract

A recent trend in historiography on the Dutch Revolt is to examine the role of transnational networks and how the positions and practices that exiles developed outside the Low Countries contributed to the Revolt and helped to shape the confessional landscape of the emerging Dutch Republic. A recent study by Silke Muylaert (2020) on migrant churches in England engages with this trend. One church that Muylaert analyses is the Flemish church in Norwich. This article builds on work on Norwich by Muylaert and other authors such as Raingard Esser to analyse the transnational networks to which members of the Norwich community belonged and the positions and practices that they developed, which contributed to events before and at the start of the Dutch Revolt, and specifically to shaping the nascent Dutch Reformed Church.

It does so in four ways. First, it analyses the prosopographies of exiles who returned to the Low Countries to participate in sectarian activities in the prelude to the Dutch Revolt. Second, it analyses the role of preachers in disputes that arose amongst the exiles about whether to support armed resistance against the Spanish in the Low Countries. Third, it examines the impact of publications printed in Norwich by exiles in the years immediately before the start of the Dutch Revolt. One important work first printed in Norwich was Den Ziekentroost (Comfort for the Sick), which became a key text for pastoral care in the Dutch Reformed Church. Fourth, the article analyses how exiles in Norwich helped to build up the Dutch Reformed Church and shape the confessional landscape in the Dutch Republic. Amongst the activities they engaged in were preaching, printing, bookselling, and translation.

诺维奇流亡社区与荷兰起义
荷兰起义史学的一个最新趋势是研究跨国网络的作用,以及流亡者在低地国家之外形成的立场和实践如何促进了起义,并帮助塑造了新兴荷兰共和国的教派面貌。西尔克-穆伊拉特(Silke Muylaert)(2020 年)最近关于英格兰移民教会的研究就涉及了这一趋势。穆伊拉特分析的一个教会是诺里奇的佛兰芒教会。本文在 Muylaert 和其他作者(如 Raingard Esser)有关诺里奇的研究基础上,分析了诺里奇社区成员所属的跨国网络以及他们形成的立场和做法,这些立场和做法对荷兰起义之前和开始时发生的事件,特别是对新生的荷兰归正会的形成做出了贡献。
