AbstractThis paper reports on the interaction between Professor Gerard de Zeeuw and the staff of the Faculty of Architecture Sint‐Lucas (Brussels–Ghent, part of the Hogeschool voor Wetenschap & Kunst), henceforth referred to as Sint‐Lucas (Architecture). The paper is a case study of Professor Gerard de Zeeuw at work, highlighting the main issues he brings into discussion and reports on the way he works with groups. It is structured around the four encounters between Gerard de Zeeuw and staff of Sint‐Lucas and discusses the important problem of defining the background and criteria for scientific research in Architecture.During the group activities, Gerard de Zeeuw stimulated a positive and open climate valuing ideas and allowing emergence of ideas. His way of working was based on enlightening ideas, maintaining focus, creating a constructive climate, introducing the framework described in this paper and an iterative process of developing ideas.The first encounter was during a meeting to prepare an EU application in Delft. Some time later, the Board of Sint‐Lucas decided to invest in the development of architectural research. A short meeting with de Zeeuw in Brussels was followed by a residential workshop in Wissant (France). This resulted in a policy statement on architectural research at Sint‐Lucas. This statement is the formal outcome of the interaction processes between Gerard de Zeeuw and Sint‐Lucas and proves Gerard de Zeeuw's impact on the formulation of criteria for scientific research in architecture. The final ideas were developed during de Zeeuw's retirement meeting in Amsterdam (the Netherlands). For each encounter, we will try to highlight the main ideas and the impact on Sint‐Lucas and research in architecture. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AbstractA set of central themes, constituting both a method and an approach, demonstrated in the 'Problems of…' conference series over the last quarter century, are extracted from the work of Gerard de Zeeuw. These themes are based in a consideration of and concern for improvement, and an attempt to reduce the frequently negative side effects of attempts at improvement, by creating 'high‐quality observations' and empowering those helped by making them actors.

Philibert van Serooskerke (1537-1579), viscount of Zealand, steward of Zealand West of the Scheldt and governor of Bergen op Zoom was the chief administrator in Zealand for Philip II, king of Spain and lord of the Habsburg-Burgundian Netherlands. On the basis of a biographical study in historical context, this dissertation aims to bridge the gap between what is known about the motives of the Dutch Revolt's initiators, and the contrasting attitude of a high-ranking civil servant who remains loyal to his sovereign and to the central administration of the Low Countries. The lord of Serooskerke is not a generally known figure in the political history of the early decades of the Dutch Revolt or Eighty Years' War. European historiography of that era generally focuses on emperors and popes, queens and kings, admirals and field-marshals, statesmen and stadtholders. It describes the events caused by their schemes and ambitions, rivalry, relations, failures and successes in response to the spirit of the age. With reference to the Dutch Revolt, much has been written about the prominent vassals of Philip II, the grand seigneurs who rose against him and took the lead in the rebellion in its early phase: Hendrick van Brederode; the counts of Egmont, Horne, Montigny, Hoogstraten; the marquess of Bergen; and – last but not least – the prince of Orange, the king's stadtholder or locum tenens in the provinces of Holland and Zealand. Particularly with regard to these two provinces, the motives and considerations of civil administrators were far less a subject of historical review, notwithstanding their crucial role. The administrators in charge were forced to choose between allegiance to their superior – the rebellious prince – and loyalty to their overlord the Spanish king, sovereign count of Holland and Zealand. Philibert van Serooskerke is a perfect example, because of his rank as viscount of Zealand and his functions of royal counsellor, steward, grand bailiff and supreme dike-reeve in Zealand West-of-Scheldt. His obligations are to keep law and order in this most important district of the province, covering more than half of its territory. It is his duty to supervise jurisdiction, prevent religious strife, and protect the king's subjects from war, plunder and exploitation. He facilitates commerce and industry. In the case of Zealand in particular this means: keeping the waterways safe for international transport and trade. Access to the great European port of Antwerp must remain open, and reversely 'nuestra salida al océano' as the Spanish governor-general in Brussels frases it, has to be reconquered when blocked by rebellious forces. In addition, dike maintenance to safeguard the islands from storm surges and floods is an almost unbearable responsibility in times of war. Raising the money to finance the province's obligations to its constituency on the one hand, and on the other to cover the growing needs of the central government, is not a very popular duty of a royal steward. During the last two years of his tenure, it may have appeared to him that siding with the king of Spain and remaining with the Roman faith had become contradictory to the interests and future welfare of his descendants. Nevertheless, he persisted in his task, secundum fidem et religionem, until this was no longer possible in 1578 because of his discharge from office by the States of Zealand then in power, acting in usurpation of the king's rights. Philibert van Serooskerke passed away a year later, an exile in Antwerp and a devout Roman Catholic.
