Brussels : a cultural and literary history
Brussels took more than 1000 years to become the capital of the Duchy of Brabant, of Burgundy and from 1830 the capital of Belgium. This text explores a city and country in perpetual search for an identity, still showing scars of the Counter-Reformation, peopled by the "Spaniards of the North".
