  • Sources and suggested study materials

    The factual data and the selection of names are mainly based upon diverse courses given in the University of Ghent (Belgium), complemented with the following sources. The whole was first elaborated by the author and eventually, where needed, redirected or corrected by many specialist-supervisors, whose critical judgement was decisive. All data have been accurately handled and compared to several reliable sources.
