Description
Summary:"Appointment under German rule?": This article analyses the possibilities of the Old Testament scholar and orientalist Albertus Hendrik Edelkoort (1890-1956) to acquire an academic position. Time and again other candidates were appointed as professors. This article attempts to explain why. The early death of the Utrecht professor Johannes de Groot (1886-1942) offered a new opportunity. However, the German occupation policy made it very complicated to complete his nomination. In the end, he himself refused to be appointed. After the Second World War, the theological faculty of Utrecht University kept its promise to nominate him again. At the age of 55 he started his academic career - and was quite appreciated.
