Summary "Studiën in Nederlandsche Namenkunde" by Johan Winkler is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the study of Dutch names, exploring their origins, meanings, and historical significance. It provides a detailed examination of various categories of names, including place names, nicknames of cities, and historical references to Dutch communities. The opening portion introduces readers to the author's enthusiastic pursuit of onomastics, establishing the framework of the studies presented. Winkler outlines his past contributions to the subject, referencing earlier works and setting the stage for the new explorations of names within Dutch culture, starting with the meanings and histories of local nicknames. He highlights the rich diversity of names found throughout the Netherlands and hints at the tensions that once existed between different communities, often expressed through derogatory terms that may still hold cultural significance today.
