Main themes

After an introduction detailing the significance of national and regional history, and of the current institutional realities in Belgium, presentations will concern the land and the people of Wallonia, first as regards previous periods, and then in contemporary terms.

Lectures will deal with social and economic questions, the arts (including music), and spoken dialects. While the course pays special attention to the emergence of Wallonia during the 19th and 20th centuries, the country and the people of the succeeding periods will not be neglected.

Aims

Upon completion of this course students shall have been introduced to Belgian history at the national, regional, and linguistic community-related level, with regard to their most important features (cultural, social, economic, institutional).
