Hardback, 285x210mm, 176p, 200 colour illustrations, English edition. ISBN 9789085866671. The first written record of a crane at the port of Antwerp dates from 1263 when the city council placed a wooden treadwheel crane at merchants' disposal. 750 years later, this is a service that the Port Authority of Antwerp continues to provide. For centuries, Antwerp's cranes were operated using manpower. Their design and manner of operation evolved at lightning speed from the late nineteenth century onwards in line with technological developments: steam, hydraulic pressure, electricity. When the city decommissioned its hydraulic cranes in 1974, it resolved to create a 'technological archive': in other words, a museum collection of harbour cranes. Presently, the MAS manages the largest and most diverse museum collection of harbour cranes in the world: eighteen cranes built by fifteen firms from Belgium and abroad. Most of these cranes have been awarded protected heritage status, while the floating crane enjoys maritime heritage status. This richly illustrated book provides for the first time an overview of 750 years of harbour crane history in Antwerp. Experts describe the developments in crane and harbour construction and discuss the crane's function as the essential link between quay and ship.

Dit boek is een boeiende zoektocht doorheen de schaarse beschikbare bronnen naar de betekenis van de naam Antwerpen en de herkomst van de Antwerpenaars. Voor het eerst onderzoekt een taalkundige niet-germanist de Vlaamse plaatsnamen en vergelijkt deze ook met Keltische namen uit Frankrijk en Romandie. Door wijziging van focus vallen voor de kennis van de geschiedenis van Antwerpen een aantal puzzelstukken in elkaar die reeds eeuwen voorwerp waren van dispuut. De oudste geschiedenis van de Antwerpenaars wordt grondig herschreven. Een uitgebreide inleiding maakt de niet-gespecialiseerde lezers op een onderhoudende wijze vertrouwd met het onderwerp. Bij wijze van voorbeelden worden Keltische, Latijnse en Germaanse plaatsnamen in de grote omgeving van Antwerpen verklaard.

Even before Amsterdam there was a dazzling North Sea port at the hub of the known world: the city of Antwerp. Antwerp was sensational like nineteenth-century Paris or twentieth-century New York, somewhere anything could happen or at least be believed: killer bankers, easy kisses, a market in secrets and every kind of heresy. For half the sixteenth century, it was the place for breaking rules - religious, sexual, intellectual. In Antwerp, things changed. One man cornered all the money in the city and reinvented ideas of what money meant. Another gave Antwerp a new shape purely out of his own ambition. Jews fleeing the Portuguese Inquisition needed Antwerp for their escape, thanks to the remarkable woman at the head of the grandest banking family in Europe. Thomas More opened Utopia there, Erasmus puzzled over money and exchanges, William Tyndale sheltered there and smuggled out his Bible in English until he was killed. Pieter Bruegel painted the town as The Tower of Babel. But when Antwerp rebelled with the Dutch against the Spanish and lost, all that glory was buried and its true history rewritten. The city that unsettled so many now became conformist. Mutinous troops burned the city records. Michael Pye sets out to rediscover the city that was lost and bring its wilder days to life using every kind of clue: novels, paintings, songs, schoolbooks, letters and the archives of Venice, London and the Medici. He builds a picture of a city haunted by fire, plague and violence, but learning how to be a power in its own right in the world after feudalism. This is the Antwerp which was the proud 'exception' to all of Europe.
