Holland, where his See also:father was a See also:notary and the burgomaster. From 1836 to 1842 Schimmel served in his father's See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office, and upon his See also:death he was taken into the office of the See also:agent of the Dutch See also:Treasury in See also:Amsterdam, ex-changing in 1849 for a See also:post with the Dutch Trading See also:Company there. In 1863 he became a director of the Amsterdam See also:Credit Association. His first See also:volume of poems appeared in 1852; but it was as a writer of See also:historical dramas in See also:blank See also:verse and one of the regenerators of the Dutch See also:stage that his See also:literary position was made. His finest See also:production was See also:Struensee (1868), which was preceded by See also:Napoleon See also:Bonaparte (1851) and Juffrouw Serklaas (" Mrs Serklaas," 1857). Among his other dramatic See also:works may be mentioned See also:Joan Woutersz (a See also:drama, 1847), Twee
Tudors (" Two Tudors," 1847), Gondelbald (1848), Schuld en Boete (" See also:Guilt and Retribution," a drama, 1852), Het See also:Kind See also:van Staat (" The See also:State See also:Child," a dramatic fragment, 1859); Zege na Str:7d (" Struggle and See also:Triumph," a drama, 1878).

Louis XI., See also:Geibel's Sophonisbe, and See also:Ponsard's Lucrece are also still acted in the See also:Netherlands. His novels are distinguished by their 'vigorous See also:style and able characterization. The earlier, better-known ones betray the writer's See also:English proclivities. The plots of See also:Mary Hollis (186o, 3 vols., English See also:translation, See also:London 1872, under the See also:title of " Mary Hollis, a See also:Romance of the Days of See also:Charles II. and See also:- WILLIAM

William, See also:Prince of See also:Orange," 3 vols.) and of Mylady See also:Carlisle (1864, 4 vols.) are laid in See also:England, whereas those of his Sinjeur Semeyns (1875, 3 vols.), a powerful picture of the terrible See also:year 1672, and of De Kapitein van de Lijfgarde (1888, 3 vols., English See also:adaptation, 1896, under the title of " The Lifeguardsman," t vol.), a continuation of '" See also:Master Semeyns," are almost entirely centred in Holland. He had many points of style and manner in See also:common with Madame Bosboom-See also:Toussaint, though both remained highly See also:original in their treatment. Both finally reverted to essentially See also:national subjects. To the earlier romances of Schimmel belong: Bonaparte en zyn Tyd (" Bonaparte and his See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.
