Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
FALCK, ANTON REINHARD (17771843) , Dutch statesman, was born at
Utrecht
  on the 19th of
March
  1777. He studied at the university of Leiden, and entered the Dutch diplomatic service, being appointed to the legation at Madrid. Under King Louis
Napoleon
  he was secretary-general for foreign affairs, but resigned office on the annexation of the Batavian republic to France. He took a leading part in the revolt of 1813 against French domination, and had a considerable share in the organization of the new kingdom of the
Netherlands
 . As minister of education under William I. he reorganized the universities of
Ghent
 ,
Louvain
  and Liege and the Royal
Academy
  of Brussels. Side by side with his activities in education he directed the departments of
trade
  and the colonies. Falck was called in Holland the king's good genius, but William I. presently tired of his counsels and he was superseded by Van Maanen. He was
ambassador
  in London when the disturbances of 183o convinced him of the necessity of the separation of Belgium from Holland. He consequently resigned his post and lived in close retirement until 1839, when he became the first Dutch minister at the Belgian court. He died at Brussels on the 16th of
March
  1843. Besides some historical works he left a correspondence of considerable political
interest
 , printed in Brieven van A. R. Falck, 1795i843 (2nd ed. The Hague, 1861), and Ambtsbrieven van A. R. Falck (ibid. 188).
