Story
Beyond the sainted Rembrandt—who harbored a startling darkness—and the mysterious Vermeer, whose true subject, it turned out, was lurking in plain sight, Moser got to know a whole galaxy of geniuses: the doomed virtuoso Carel Fabritius, the anguished wunderkind Jan Lievens, the deaf prodigy Hendrik Avercamp. Year after year, as he tried to make a life for himself in the Netherlands, Moser found friends among these centuries-dead artists. And he found that they, too, were struggling with the same questions that he was.

Story
Working with the full cooperation of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith have accessed a wealth of previously untapped materials. While drawing liberally from the artist's famously eloquent letters, they have also delved into hundreds of unpublished family correspondences, illuminating with poignancy the wanderings of Van Gogh's troubled, restless soul. Naifeh and Smith bring a crucial understanding to the larger-than-life mythology of this great artist.

Story
The Netherlands had a great century in the 1600s, until it all ended about three-fourths of the way along. Trading was all around; business was good. Their vast empire that reached across the world made money from spices, raw materials, metals, and so much more, with an extensive network of ships and merchants, and an entire army fleet. The Dutch Golden Era was a time in Dutch history varying from about 1588 (the start of the Dutch Republic) to 1672 (the "Catastrophe Year"), throughout which Dutch trade, science, and art, and the Dutch armed force, were amongst the world's best.

Story
In de westerse kunst- en cultuurgeschiedenis beslaat de Renaissance bovenal de periode tussen 1400 en 1600. De confrontatie met de denkbeelden uit de antieke wereld bracht een wedergeboorte van de kunsten teweeg en was een breekpunt met wat men lang beschouwde als de ‘donkere middeleeuwen’. Tegenwoordig zien we de voortekenen van een renaissance al vanaf de late 12e eeuw opdoemen, met de herontdekking van de klassieke oudheid en de opkomst van het humanisme.

Story
Het belang van het antieke Griekse theater blijkt uit de doorwerking en invloed ervan in latere eeuwen. Dichters, prozaschrijvers, beeldend kunstenaars, cineasten, componisten en choreografen raakten hierdoor geïnspireerd. Maar het belang blijkt ook uit de vele opvoeringen van klassieke toneelstukken in de huidige tijd. De vraagstukken die in de tragedies en komedies aan de orde komen zijn tijdloos en de schitterende poëtische taal blijft het publiek aanspreken en ontroeren, ook in vertaling. In zijn hoorcollege bespreekt Hein van Dolen zoveel mogelijk facetten van het antieke theater.
