| Résumé: | During the sixteenth and seventeenth century different confessions fought for their place in the Northern Dutch society. This battle is analyzed based on martyr songs, a genre which is used by Catholics, Calvinists and Anabaptists. The hypothesis is that each confession will use these songs to promote its own ideas and stigmatize others. Since the place in society of each group changes during time, their songs will change accordingly. This article studies martyr songs from Catholics, Calvinists and Anabaptists in three different periods: 1570-1588, 1588-1600 and 1630-1650. It can be concluded that the Catholic songs from the first period are protests against the new confessions. Later on, the Catholics find their own voice by focusing on older Catholic martyrs. This is part of their Catholic survival strategy. The Anabaptists produce the most songs, which are mostly very militant. These songs are still being published after the establishment of the Dutch Republic, although the production of the songs decreases. They need these songs to establish their religious identity, which is strongly associated with martyrdom. Calvinists songs disappear after the establishment of the Dutch Republic. This can be linked to the fact that Calvinism is now the dominant religion. |
