ET: Correspondence between Mr. G. Groen van Prinsterer and Dr. A. Kuyper. 1864–1876. Edited by Dr. A. Goslinga.

This publication contains 500 of the letters that Groen van Prinsterer and Kuyper exchanged with one another. The historian A. Goslinga (1884–1961) furnished the notes. Circumstances led to considerable delays in the publication of the project Groen van Prinsterer. Schriftelijke Nalatenschap [Groen van Prinsterer: Literary legacy]. However, the Dr. Abraham Kuyper Foundation, which was founded on April 20, 1921, had stipulated that it would support the project only if the editing of the correspondence between Groen and Kuyper were completed in time for independent publication during the Kuyper centennial. The pressure of working under that deadline resulted in a less than optimal example of historical editing. The volume of correspondence published in the editions of 1980.01 and 1992.01 was significantly expanded and improved.

The Rijks Geschiedkundige Publicatiën [State Historical Publications] (RGP) publishes documentary editions providing access to historical sources as well as biographical and bibliographic reference works. As minister of internal affairs, Kuyper was responsible for starting the RGP series. During his term as prime minister (1901–1905), Kuyper decided also on the definitive form of the name for the project and provided a significant impulse toward the realization of these publications, the first volume of which was published in 1905.
