Jonathan Coe, born 19 August 1961 in Birmingham, is a British novelist and writer. His work usually has an underlying preoccupation with political issues, although this serious engagement is often expressed comically in the form of satire. For example, What a Carve Up! reworks the plot of an old 1960s spoof horror film of the same name, in the light of the 'carve up' of the UK's resources which some felt was carried out by Margaret Thatcher's right wing Conservative governments of the 1980s. Coe studied at King Edward's School, Birmingham and Trinity College, Cambridge, before teaching at the University of Warwick w -

Anna Bijns
De vader van Anna Bijns (1493-1575), Jan Bijns, was kousen- (of eigenlijk broeken-)maker en wellicht ook rederijker. Anna bracht haar jeugd door in het huis ‘De Cleyn Wolvinne’ aan de Grote Markt (nu nummer 46). Ze had een zuster, Margriete (geboren in 1495) en een broer, Marten (geboren in 1497). Na het overlijden van vader Bijns in 1516 verkocht Anna’s moeder, Lijsbeth Voochs, het huis aan de Grote Markt om Marten en Margriete hun erfdeel te kunnen uitbetalen. Marten en Anna betrokken samen met hun moeder vervolgens het huis ‘De Patiencie’ in de Keizerstraat. Marten opende er een schooltje waar ook Anna les gaf.
