A Dutch historian of literature, also essayist and critic; born at The Hague, July 6, 1817; died in Wiesbaden, Oct. 19, 1885. He is a conceded authority on Dutch letters, his masterpieces on "The Middle Dutch Epic" (1849), "The History of Middle Dutch Literature" (1851-54), and "Study of the Romance of Renard" (1863), exhausting those subjects; and his editions of Dutch classics are the standard.
