Life

Van Hogendorp, studied law at Leiden. He graduated there in 1822 as doctor 'in both laws' (Doctor iuris utriusque), that is, civil law and criminal law. During his study, he came under the influence of Willem Bilderdijk. In 1830 Van Hogendorp became substitute-officer at the court of Amsterdam. Later on he became council gentleman (raadsheer) in the Provincial Court of South Holland. In that same year, he married his full cousin Marianne Cathérine jonkvrouw van Hogendorp. They had various children, including Dirk van Hogendorp jr. (1833-1857), who like his father studied at Leiden and became a lawyer, and Anna van Hogendorp (1841-1915), who became a Christian supporter of women's suffrage. Through his oldest daughter Caroline (1831-1919), he is a great-great-grandfather of Audrey Hepburn[1].

In the summer of 1823 Dirk van Hogendorp travelled round the Netherlands on foot with his friend Jacob van Lennep. Both loved this journey and produced diaries of it - that of Van Lennep was later published under the title 'Nederland in den goeden ouden Tijd' ('The Netherlands in the good old times', 1943) and 'Lopen met Van Lennep' ('Walk with Van Lennep', 2000), edited by Marita Mathijsen and Geert Mak. The last edition appeared as a result of a TV series made for the RVU by Theo Uittenbogaard, 'De Zomer van 1823' ('The Summer of 1823'), in which he and Geert Mak retraced the pair's steps.

The archives of Van Hogendorp are named in the Catalogus Kluit 1955 of the library of the University of Amsterdam on The Réveil.
