In addition to his Eneit c 1185), a chivalrous rendering of Virgil's Aeneid, and his love lyrics, which were important for German poets, Heinrich produced Servatius, a saint's life written in the Limburg dialect. Dutch 13th- and 14th-century texts were generally written in the cultural centres of Flanders and Brabant, where, for reasons of trade, the prevailing influence was French. Throughout Europe the Crusades brought courtly romances into vogue, and Dutch romances, following French models, were written about events from classical history, such as Segher Diergotgaf 's Paerlement van Troyen ("Parliament of Troy"); about Oriental subjects; or, most popular of all, on themes from Celtic sagas, including the Arthurian cycle. But by the 1260s chivalry was on the decline; the titles of Jacob van Maerlant's later works bear witness to a late 13th-century reaction against romance. Van Maerlant's compendia of knowledge, including his

The dialects of the wealthy southern provinces of Flanders and Brabant prevailed in literature. Around 1600 linguistic hegemony shifted to Holland in the north as a result of important changes in the political and cultural landscape after the Dutch revolt against the Habsburg regime. In the course of the seventeenth century, a standard language was established that was based on the dialect of Holland with Brabantic influences. Grammar and orthography were regulated, and an active purist movement fought against loan words from Latin and French. Rhetoricians The rederijkers

Aernout Drost , author of Hermingard van de Eikenterpen (1832; "Hermingard of the Oak Burial Mounds"), set at the beginning of the Christian Era, also started a new literary journal, De muzen Potgieter , continued the campaign to improve critical standards in De gids ("The Guide"), known as the "Blue Butcher" because of its merciless treatment of complacency. Potgieter defined the historical novel, and Anna Bosboom-Toussaint put his ideas into effect, transposing the universal Christian idealism of Drost to the national Protestant faith of the Golden Age. Bosboom-Toussaint's best known book, Majoor Frans (1874; "Major Francis"), was not historical, belonging rather to an era of liberal politics and female emancipationists. Nicolaas Beets , although feted as a national Protestant poet, owes his enduring fame to his sketches in Ca me ra obscura (1839), with their stylistic virtuosity and Dickensian observation of detail. Potgieter's allegorical humour was less direct in its appeal, and his quest for originality tended to deprive his style of simplicity and clarity.
