See also:LENNEF, See also:JACOB See also:VAN (1802–1868) , Dutch poet and novelist, was See also:born on the 24th of See also:March 1802 at See also:Amsterdam, where his See also:father, See also:David Jacob van See also:Lennep (1774–1853), a See also:scholar and
poet, was See also:professor of eloquence and the classical See also:languages in the See also:Athenaeum. Lennep took the degree of See also:doctor of See also:laws at See also:Leiden, and then settled as an See also:advocate in Amsterdam. His first poetical efforts had been See also:translations from See also:Byron, of whom he was an ardent admirer, and in 1826 he published a collection of See also:original Academische Idyllen, which had some success. He first attained genuine popularity by the Nederlandsche Legenden (2 vols., 1828) which reproduced, after the manner of See also:Sir See also:Walter See also:Scott, some of the more stirring incidents in the See also:early See also:history of his fatherland. His fame was further raised by his patriotic songs at the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time of the Belgian revolt, and by his comedies Het Dorp aan de Grenzen (183o) and Het Dorp over de Grenzen (1831), which also had reference to the See also:political events of 183o. In 1833 he See also:broke new ground with the publication of De Pleegzoon (The Adopted Son), the first of a See also:series of See also:historical romances in See also:prose, which have acquired for him in See also:- HOLLAND

Holland a position somewhat analogous to that of Sir Walter Scott in See also:Great See also:Britain. The series included De Roos van Dekama (2 vols., 1836), Onze Voorouders (5 vols., 1838), De Lotgevallen van See also:Ferdinand Huyck (2 vols., 1840), See also:Elizabeth Musch (3 vols., 1850), and De Lotgevallen van Klaasje Zevenster (5 vols., 1865), several of which have been translated into See also:German and See also:French, and two—The See also:Rose of Dekama (1847) and The Adopted Son (New See also:York, 1847)—into See also:English. His Dutch history for See also:young See also:people (Voornaamste Geschiedenissen van Noord-Nederland aan mijne Kindern verhaald, 4 vols., 1845) is attractively written. Apart from the two comedies already mentioned, Lennep was an indefatigable journalist and See also:literary critic, the author of numerous dramatic pieces, and of an excellent edition of See also:Vondel's See also:works. For some years Lennep held a judicial See also:appointment, and from 1853 to 1856 he was a member of the second chamber, in which he voted with the conservative party. He died at Oosterbeek near Arnheim on the 25th of See also:August 1868.
There is a collective edition of his Poetische Werken (13 vols., 1859-1872), and also of his Romantische Werken (23 vols., 1855-1872). See also a bibliography by P. Knoll (1869); and See also:Jan ten Brink, Geschiedenis der Noord-Nederlandsche Letteren in de XIX°and entrusted with the important See also:post of guarding the fords of the See also:river Forth.

James I. from his See also:long English captivity, the aged Earl Duncan went with the Scottish party to See also:Durham. The next See also:year, however, he suffered the See also:fate of Albany, being executed perhaps for no other See also:reason than that he was his father-in-See also:law. The earldom was not forfeited, and the widowed duchess of Albany, now also countess of Lennox, lived secure in her See also:island castle of Inchmurrin on See also:Loch See also:Lomond until her See also:death. Of her four sons, none of whom left legitimate issue, the eldest died in 1421, the two next suffered their father's fate at See also:Stirling, while the youngest had to flee for his See also:life to See also:Ireland. Her daughter Isobel appears to have been the wife of Sir Walter See also:Buchanan of that ilk.
It was from Elizabeth, See also:sister of the countess, that the next holders of the See also:title descended. She was married to Sir John Stewart of See also:Darnley (distinguished in the military history of See also:France as seigneur d'Aubigny), whose immediate ancestor was See also:brother of James, 5th high steward of See also:Scotland. Their See also:grandson, another Sir John Stewart, created a See also:lord of See also:parliament as Lord Darnley, was served heir to his great-grandfather Duncan, earl of Lennox, in 1473, and was designated as earl of Lennox in a See also:charter under the great See also:seal in the same year. Thereafter followed disputes with John of See also:Haldane, whose wife's great-grandmother had been another of the three daughters of Duncan, 8th earl of Lennox, and in her right he contested the See also:succession. Lord Darnley, however, appears to have silenced all opposition and for the last seven years of his life maintained his right to the earldom undisputed. Three of his younger sons were greatly distinguished in the French service, one being See also:captain of Scotsmenat-arms, another premier homme d'armes, and a third marechal de France. Their See also:elder brother See also:Matthew, 2nd earl of this See also:line, fell on See also:Flodden See also:- FIELD (a word common to many West German languages, cf. Ger.
