His caustic pieces were compiled in Mandarijnen op zwavelzuur (Mandarines in Sulphuric Acid, 1963), which was reprinted with additions a number of times.

G.A. Bredero

Gerbrand Adriaenszoon Bredero (1585–1618) was a 17th century Dutch poet, playwright and rhetorician, best known for his comedic plays and folk poetry. His 1617 play Spaanschen Brabander Jerolimo (The Spanish Brabanter) is considered the greatest Dutch comedy to emerge from the Dutch Golden Age, if not from Dutch literature in general.

Soon after his death, his poems were collected in wildly popular songbooks such as the Geestigh liedt-boecxken (Merry Song Book, 1621), the Groot lied-boeck (Great Song Book, 1622) and the complete works (1638) by the Amsterdam book seller and publisher Cornelis Lodewijcksz. Vander Plasse.

Multatuli

Eduard Douwes Dekker, better known by his pen name Multatuli (from Latin multa tuli, "I have suffered much"), was a Dutch writer famous for his satirical novel, Max Havelaar (1860) in which he denounced the abuses of colonialism in the colony of the Dutch East Indies (today's Indonesia). He is considered one of the Netherlands' greatest authors.

Determined to expose the scandals he had witnessed during his years in the Dutch East Indies, Douwes Dekker began to write newspaper articles and pamphlets. Little notice was taken of these early publications until, in 1860, he published his satirical anticolonialist novel Max Havelaar: The Coffee Auctions of the Dutch Trading Company under the pseudonym Multatuli.
