Werner Thomas (1966) is Associate Professor of Iberian and Iberoamerican history at the University of Leuven. He has published on the repression of Protestantism in Spain (1517-1648), the Habsburg court of the Archdukes Albert and Isabella Clara Eugenia in Brussels (1598-1621), the Siege of Ostend (1601-1604), and the political and cultural relations between the (Southern) Netherlands and the Spanish empire (1500-1700). His current research projects include the contribution of Flemish prints and engravings to the construction of the Spanish empire in America, focussing on New Spain, Peru, and New Granada (1520-1800), the Southern Netherlands as a centre of accumulation and translation within the Spanish monarchy (1520-1700), and the role of Hispano-Flemish elites and mixed identities in the continuation of Flemish loyalty to the House of Habsburg (1659-1708). http://www.arts.kuleuven.be/nieuwetij...
