description Sex and Drugs Before Rock ’n’ Roll is a fascinating volume that presents an engaging overview of what it was like to be young and male in the Dutch Golden Age. Here, well-known cohorts of Rembrandt are examined for the ways in which they expressed themselves by defying conservative values and norms. This study reveals how these young men rebelled, breaking from previous generations: letting their hair grow long, wearing colorful clothing, drinking excessively, challenging city guards, being promiscuous, smoking, and singing lewd songs. Cogently argued, this study paints a compelling portrait of the youth culture of the Dutch Golden Age, at a time when the rising popularity of print made dissemination of new cultural ideas possible, while rising incomes and liberal attitudes created a generation of men behaving badly.

Dit boek richt zich op één generatie van jonge mannen die werd geboren rond 1600 en volwassen werd tijdens het hoogtepunt van de Gouden Eeuw. Van bekende generatiegenoten, zoals Rembrandt van Rijn, wordt onderzocht hoe ze uiting gaven aan hun jongerencultuur en mannelijkheid. Roberts onderzoekt de mannelijkheid van deze jonge mannen op het gebied van uiterlijk, drinken, drugs, het gebruik van geweld, hun seksualiteit en hun manier van vrijetijdsinvulling. Hij laat zien hoe zij zich afzetten tegen de vorige generatie onder andere door hun lang haren, kleurrijke kleding, promiscuiteit en overmatig drankgebruik. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2012-12-31 23:55:55 2019-12-10 14:46:32 2020-04-01T15:17:56Z 2012 book 425550 OCN: 828494632 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/34479 9789089644022 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/27928 eng Amsterdam Studies in the Dutch Golden Age open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34479/1/425550.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34479/1/425550.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34479/1/425550.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34479/1/425550.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/34479/1/425550.pdf Amsterdam University Press 10.5117/9789089644022 10.5117/9789089644022 de2ecbe7-1037-4e96-8c3a-5a842d921e04 9789089644022 336 open access
