The Low Countries and the New World(s) is a collection of specialized studies in the Netherlandic field, covering topics in Dutch Literature, Linguistics, History and Art History. This volume focuses on the tradition of travel, exploration and discovery of new worlds by the Low Countries throughout history. In the process, the Low Countries have reflected on their own character, expanded their experience by exploring other cultures and built small outposts of that culture in many places.
