• Extra informatie: - Theodorus Johannes "Dirk" Graswinckel (1600-1666) was a Dutch jurist, a significant writer on the freedom of the seas. He was a controversialist, who also rose to a high legal position (Fiscal of Holland; Advocaat-Fiscaal der Domeinen van ... de Heeren Staten van Holland en West-Vriesland), where he advised Descartes. He was a cousin and pupil of Grotius. This work is published after his death expounding his political ideas clearly. Being an absolutist in the Netherlands, though not an enlightened and politicial absolutist like Burgersdijk, but on the basis of formal legalistic argument. Starting with Aristotle and contract theory he attempted to prove that the sovereign is directly appointed by God. The basis of Graswinckel's absolutism was theology, the doctrine of divine right, the absolute duty of obedience and the immutability of a God-given form of government can all be found without nuances or escape clauses. One does not get the impression that he had much influence on his contemporaries. Kossmann. Political thought in the Dutch Republic. p. 54-55. In 1674 followed by : Speciale beschryvingh van het gebruyck, ofte daadelijcke bezitting van opperste macht, der ... Heeren Staten van Hollandt ende West-Vrieslandt.
