['Aai' Biemond in Propria Cures].
A. Biemond (1902-1973), professor of neurology at the University of Amsterdam from 1947-1971, was the editor of the Amsterdam student weekly Propria Cures during his student years from 1921-1922. The articles he wrote for this publication were characterised by lavish baroque prose and complicated syntax with many inversions. The tone was overconfident, facetious and ironic. Themes included fellow female medical students and democracy. In later years, Biemond became an outstanding clinician and an enthusiastic teacher. He was also a participant in the doctors' resistance movement during the Second World War.
