A Cultural History of Wallonia

Wallonia-the southern region of Belgium-boasts an extraordinarily rich cultural heritage. This book presents the first comprehensive overview of Walloon culture, exploring in particular the roles that literature, music, and art have played in establishing a sense of Walloon identity from prehistory to the present. Lavishly illustrated with over four hundred reproductions of manuscripts, photographs, maps, and other works of art, this volume offers a magnificent exploration of Walloon culture.
