Neo-latinisten congres augustus 1971 te Leuven.

From 23d to 28th August 1971 the first international Congress of neo-Latin Language and Literature will be held at the University of Louvain, Belgium.

This congress intends to bring together scholars of various disciplines (i.a. classical, romance, germanic and slavic philology) and working on neo-Latin texts or interested in the contributions of neo-Latin authors to Western literature in general.

Lectures and discussions are to bear on three main themes, viz.:

1.	The problems of neo-Latin bibliography, lexicography and text edition.
2.	The general history of neo-Latin literature; actual situation and prospects for the future.
3.	Neo-Latin and the vernacular.

Proposals for lectures may still be submitted to the organising committee.

The Second David Nicol Smith Memorial Seminar in Eighteenth Century Studies
23-29 augustus 1970.

In aansluiting op hetgeen in ons vorig dokumentatieblad over dit seminar werd medegedeeld kunnen we thans het (voorlopig) programma bekendmaken. Hieruit blijkt dat men ook in Australië thans probeert te komen tot een vereniging voor de studie van de 18e eeuw.

Programme.

The main business of the Second Seminar will be conducted from Monday 24 August to Saterday 29 August. However, members are advised to arrive in Canberra early on Sunday 23 August in order to settle in, to complete registration formalities, and to attend the official opening ceremony.

[p. 21]

The Seminar will be opened at 5.00 p.m. on Sunday 23 August at a sherry party held in the National Library of Australia, where a collection of eighteenth century books, documents and works of art will be on display.

A business session will be held on the morning of Saturday 29. Items for discussion will include the prospects of holding another David Nichol Smith Memorial Seminar; and the possible formation of an Australian or Australasian Society for Eighteenth Century Studies. We shall have the benefit at this session of advice from members of the Executives of the International Society for Eighteenth Century Studies and the American Society for Eighteenth Century Studies who are attending the Seminar.

There will be approximately twenty speakers. Two of the papers will be presented as public lectures on the evening of Monday 24 August and Thursday 28 August. In addition it is intended to hold four seminar discussion sessions. The numbers participating in each session will be limited. Entrance will be by ticket, and members may apply for tickets when they register on arrival in Canberra. The following general topics will provide the main areas of discussion: precise topics may be dicided later:

Historiography

Satire

Amsterdam - Rijksmuseum

Het Rijksprentenkabinet te Amsterdam is in de loop van 1969 in het bezit gekomen van een uitgebreide collectie (250 stuks) tekeningen die tezamen de ateliernalatenschap vormen van het Rotterdamse schildersgeslacht Van Nijmegen. Tot de verzameling behoren bladen van Elias (1667-1755) en Dionijs van Nijmegen (1705-1798).
