Maria Hulshoff
Maria Aletta Hulshoff (pen name, Mietje; 30 July 1781, Amsterdam – 10 February 1846, Amsterdam) was a Dutch Patriot, feminist and pamphleteer. Life Maria was the daughter of the Mennonite preacher Allard Hulshoff (1734-1795) and Anna Debora van Oosterwijk (1745-1812), and for her whole life held onto her father's democratic, Patriotic and anti- Orangist views. Her first pamphlet, writes her biographer Geertje Wiersma, was a dissertation on democracy written by the prominent patriot Samuel Iperusz Wiselius - it is possible it was published under her name to protect Wiselius, the real author. She was taken into custody but because the authorities understood that the young woman was not the real author and the evidence against Wiselius was insufficient, the affair came to nothing. She wrote her second pamphlet, Oproeping aan het Bataafse volk ("An Appeal to the Batavian People", 1806), under her own name. She took up the task when she heard rumours that Napoleon was consider ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Mennonite
