Biography
Dr. Feike Dietz MA (1984) is Assistant Professor in Early Modern Dutch Literature and Culture at Utrecht University. Feike is project leader of the NWO Vrije Competitie Project 'Language Dynamics in the Dutch Golden Age' (together with Marjo van Koppen). In this project, literary and linguistics aspects of language variation are analysed from an interdisciplinary perspective. A second research project focuses on the relationship between early modern literature and knowledge production: multimedial texts for childrens and adolescents as instruments of (visual, information) literacy. Her PhD-project (2007-2011) focused on the interconfessional exchange of illustrated religious literature in the Dutch Republic. This topic has been the focus of several of her articles and her book Literaire levensaders. Internationale uitwisseling van woord, beeld en religie in de Republiek (Literary Lifelines. The international exchange of Word, Image and Religion in the Dutch Republic) (Verloren, 2012). Moreover, she edited the volume Illustrated Religious Texts in the North of Europe, 1500-1800 (Ashgate 2014).
