Obscure 19th Century Dutch Newspaper History: The 'Lilliputters' and Eiler Meeder
We discuss a historical fact about small opposition newspapers in 19th century Netherlands, called 'Lilliputters', which were a way to avoid paying newspaper stamp fees. The best example is the papers published by the fanatical Republican Eiler Meeder, who was imprisoned for 'les majestes' before being invited to meet King William II, who offered him an allowance if he stopped publishing. Meeder later resumed publishing, but admitted the king was kind and friendly, even though he opposed the monarchy.
