Autorenporträt
Professor Kurth was a leading Belgian Catholic historian of the second half of the nineteenth century. Indeed his renown was such that the prestigious Catholic Encyclopedia featured more than a dozen contributions from him on a range of subjects within his professional expertise. He completed his education at l'Ecole normale des Humanités de Liège (1868) and thereafter served as Professor of French at l'Athénée de Liège (1869-1872). Eventually he succeeded Adolphe Borgnet at the Chair of Medieval History and the History of Belgium at the State University of Liege (1872-1906), during which time (1873) he received his special doctorate in historical sciences. He was the Secretary of the Belgian Historical Institute in Rome (1906-1916). He was a member of the Academy of the Catholic Religion in Rome; a member of the Royal Society of Literature in London; a member of the Dutch Literary Society in Leyden; a member of the Madrid Historical Academy; he was the President of the Board of Administration of the Royal Library. These are only a few of his many titles. He was also a Commander of the Order of Leopold and a Knight of the Order of Pius IX. He was the author of some 20 books, many of them multi-volume, and a number of which ran to five and more editions.
