To the history teachers and students of all countries

We would like to find out whether historical important
Flemish personalities are to be found in your history classes.

We would like to know from you whether these, or part of these, persons appear in your history books or manuals. If this were the case, we would appreciate receiving a scan of the relevant page and cover page of the book through email. If possible, we would also like to find out whether these persons are looked at in a brief or extensive manner or not at all and in what way you deal with Flanders.

If none of these persons were to appear in your history books or manuals, please let us know as well since this forms also part of our research.

Let us also known if you are not able to respond to our question. We will then continue our research.

The purpose of this is to integrate your information in our website so that each of you can follow up the evolution of our research in the following year.  On our website you will also find more information about the evolution and the objectives of this project.

Leo Baekeland, Adrien de Gerlache, Mercator, Ortelius, Adolphe Quetelet, Andreas Vesalius
