Het auteurschap van het Nederlandse Beke-Vervolg: historiografie en identiteit in laat-middeleeuws Utrecht

Master thesis | History (MA)

This thesis investigates the authorship of the Dutch Beke continuation (written ca. 1420-1432). The chronicle is studied within the historical culture of the Low Countries and specifically the episcopacy of Utrecht during the first half of the fifteenth century. Through the discourse the author displays, it is argued that he was working for the city council of Utrecht.
