In 1947, 300 years after P.C. Hooft died, [[P. C. Hooft Award|a literary prize in his name]] was instituted by the Dutch government. An independent foundation annually awards the prize. Initially it was awarded for specific works, but in recent years it is awarded based on the entire collection of a writer.
