Abstract

Samuel de Swaef and Henry Lancel, Gedichten van verscheijde poëten: an early seventeenth-century schoolmasters' combine There have always been certain professions which have enjoyed a measure of social status without the corresponding material rewards. It was only logical, and generally accepted, that the members of these professions often took on all sorts of jobs on the side - preferably within their own line of business - in order to polish up the other side of the medal a bit and hoist the family income to an acceptable level. A classic example of this kind of profession, right down the centuries, has been schoolmastering, a job virtually inseparable from the concept of extra earnings. Everyone is familiar with the additional hours of tutoring considered necessary for 'backward' pupils, or the optional courses or classes outside the normal curriculum. And who has not been puzzled by the apparently endless series of editions of schoolbooks which seem to differ so little from one another, but which nevertheless continue to flood the market year after year? What parent has not been infuriated by the phrase: 'Most recent edition please' in the school booklists ? Admittedly it is not a case of 'publish
