Excerpt from Guido Gezelle: The Mystic Poet of Flanders
The reader will perhaps raise the question: Why do some of the Flemish authors insist on writing in Flemish, a tongue so limited in use? Why do they not follow the larger and easier road to success, international fame and wealth, which Maeterlinck and Verhaeren followed, by writing in French, which for most of them has become a sec ond mother tongue? Why write in the speech of the lower and the middle classes of Flanders, neg leeting the richer French-speaking bourgeoisie?
