Raymond Brulez

Died in 1972

Raymond Brulez was born in Blankenberge on 18 October 1895; his father, a freethinker, was a municipal secretary, and his parents ran a hotel-guesthouse. He studied Germanic languages at the Free University of Brussels, taught Dutch during the First World War, then in 1936 joined the national radio, where from 1945 to 1960 he headed the Dutch-language spoken programmes. An avowed sceptic, ironic towards every ideology, he was elected to the Royal Flemish Academy in 1960 and died in Brussels on 17 August 1972.
