Daniel Czepkos Bußpsalmen finden erstmals eine eingehende Analyse. Sie sucht — auch im kontextuellen Vergleich — Eigenart und Stellenwert der Texte zu bestimmen. Durch den aufgewiesenen lutherischen Akzent stellt sich die Frage nach dem Verhältnis von Druckfassung und (abweichender) Abschrift neu.
Philipp von Zesen’s treatise in praise of seafaring and of the city of Amsterdam — the headquarters of the renowned East Indian trading company VOC — covers the whole complex of trade and seafaring, as well as the ethical problems that arise from them, in a Dutch context. Since Zesen dedicated his Beschreibung der Stadt Amsterdam to the city’s government, in gratitude for the citizenship that it had awarded him, he had to be cautious in his criticism. He therefore had to incorporate it with the required circumspection into the historical genre of Städtelob (‘praise of the city’) as it was understood at that time.
