Joost van den Vondel (1587 – 1679) was a Dutch author, poet and playwright. The most prominent Dutch poet and playwright of the 17th century, he is considered the national poet of the Netherlands. His play Gijsbrecht van Aemstel (1637) was performed annually on New Year's Day from 1637 to 1968, and remains one of the Netherlands most famed plays.

Vondel remained productive until a very old age. Several of his most notable plays like Lucifer (1654) and Adam in Exile (1664) were written when he was already over 65 years old, and his final play Noah, written at the age of eighty, is considered one of his finest. ...more
