Why Is Adrian Beverland Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Hadriaan Beverland was a Dutch humanist scholar who was banished from Holland in 1679 and settled in England in 1680. Early life Beverland was born between 20 September and 14 December 1650 in Middelburg, son to Johannes Beverland and Catarina van Deijnse . He had two older brothers: Johannes and Christoffel . His father worked in the military village of Lillo and died in March 1654. In September 1654, Beverland’s mother Catarina married Bernard de Gomme, an important military engineer for the English army. The couple moved to England around 1660. Beverland and his brothers remained in Middelburg to finish their education and lived in different households. In 1663 Beverland was registered at the Latin School of Middelburg. In July 1669 he was registered at the University of Franeker. He also studied at the universities of Leiden and Utrecht in the decade that followed and spent a year at the University of Oxford in 1672, a move that was partly inspired by war in the Dutch Republic. During his studies, Beverland befriended other humanist scholars: Jacob de Goyer, Nicolaas Heinsius, Jacobus Gronovius, Johann Georg Graevius, and Isaac Vossius. He earned a doctorate in Law at the University of Utrecht in 1677.
