In 1632-1647 ten “boeken”of the De Bello Belgico was published in Rome, a history of the war in The Netherlands in the years 1555-1590, written by the Jezuit Father Famianus Strada (1572-1649). Strade has a great imagination and writes very lifely, according to De Feller. Strada also had access to the archives. This translation into Dutch is by the hand of the Antwerp schoolteacher Willem van Aelst (1600-1659).
