Short Description
"Joost van den Vondel (Dutch: [ˈjoːst fɑn dɛn ˈvɔndəl]; 17 November 1587 – 5 February 1679) was a Dutch poet, writer and playwright. He is considered the most prominent Dutch poet and playwright of the 17th century. His plays are the ones from that period that are still most frequently performed, and his epic Joannes de Boetgezant (1662), on the life of John the Baptist, has been called the greatest Dutch epic.

Vondel´s theatrical works were regularly performed until the 1960s. The most visible was the annual performance, on New Year´s Day from 1637 to 1968, of Gijsbrecht van Aemstel." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.01.2020)
