What Systematics Am I Lacking?

[govols]

Purpose Driven Systematics?

Whose purpose is it anyways?

 

[Mayflower]

Kuyper - Principles of Sacred Theology, Particular Grace, Holy Spirit - these are really the only ones that has made it into English. I have his 5 Vol. Dictaten Dogmateik which are the systematics that he wrote - what I wouldn't give for an English translation!

Dear Chris, do have these works in Dutch ? If so, do you read dutch ?
(by the way i have them also)

Dutch works that I own (Please forgive the spelling, they're not in front of me):

Abraham Kuyper:
E Voto 4 Vol. (work on the Heidleberg Catechism)
Pre Rege 3 Vol.
De Gemmene Gratie (Common Grace) 3 Vol.
Dictaten Dogmatiek 5 Vol. (Systematics)
Ons Program (Our Program refering to the Anti-Revolutionary Party)
Antirevolutionary Staatkunde ( Anti Revolutionary Statecraft) 2 vol.
Locus De Magistrau (His work on the civil magistrate - also included in the 5 vol. systematics.)
4 Vol. Parlimentary Speeches.

Biography on Bavinck by Hepp
2 Vol. work on Reformed Ethics by Geesink
Reformed Ethics by Aalders
Volume of correspondance of Van Prinsterer gifted to me by Harry Van Dyke
Bibliography of Van Prinsterer
Klaas Schilder's 5 Vol. on the Heidleberg
A work on logic by DTH Vollenhoven
Philosophia Reformata Journals from 1936-1982 (Journal for Calvinistic Philosophy that had Dooyeweerd, Vollenhoven, Stoker, and Van Til as its editors)

I don't speak Dutch but am attempting to learn it. I have a couple of grammars and Kramer's 1 vol. dictionary. There is so much material that is locked up in the Dutch tongue. I would love to see more of it translated. You can pick it up pretty cheap in the States as well. I have been getting packages from Belgium and all over the Netherlands thanks to abebooks.com.

For a great site that has tons of Dutch material scanned in that you could take advantage of, check here: http://www.neocalvinisme.nl/tekstframes.html

I'm trying to make my way to the Netherlands this summer for this symposium in Reformational Philosohy: http://home.planet.nl/~srw/nwe/is2005/english/programm/theme.html
Is Hoeven nearby for you?

Let me know if there are any grammars or dictionaries that are better than the others...Thanks!
