Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JUN-KHA
KERVYN DE LETTENHOVE, CONSTANTINE BRUNO, BARON, (18171891) , Belgian historian, was born at Saint-Michel-les-Bruges 1817. He was a member of the Catholic Constitutional party and sat in the Chamber as member for Eecloo. In 187o he was appointed a member of the cabinet of Anethan as minister of the interior. But his official career was short. The cabinet appointed as
governor
  of
Lille
  one Decker, who had been entangled in the
financial
  speculations of Langand-Dumonceau by which the whole clerical party had been discredited, and which provoked riots. The cabinet was forced to resign, and Kervyn de Lettenhove devoted himself entirely to literature and history. He had already become known as the anther of a
book
  on Froissart (Brussels, 1855), which was crowned by the
French
 
Academy
 . He edited a
series
  of chroniclesChroniques relatives a l'histoire de la Belgique sous la domination des ducs de Bourgogne (Brussels, 1870-1873), and Relations politiques des Pays Bas et de l'Angleterre sous le regne de Philippe II. (Brussels, 18821892). He wrote a history of Les Hugenots et les Gueux (Bruges, 18831885) in the spirit of a violent Roman Catholic partisan, but with much industry and learning. He died at Saint-Michel-les-Bruges in 1891.
See Notices biographiques et bibliographiques de l'academie de Belgique for 1887.
