The chronological table below can be compared to a classical timeline, in which a number of events relating to Franciscus van den Enden are displayed in chronological order (jump directly to a decade by clicking on the corresponding date below). However, only those events that could be dated accurately (to a month or season) are listed, so some well-known facts about Van den Enden have not been included. For each decade, you can also reach a more elaborate chronological table, including events that are not directly related to Van den Enden (go to this extended table by clicking on the decade in the list below). Generally, the events included in the extended chronology are of importance to the history of the Low Countries. Two exceptions were made. Firstly, for philosophical and scientific matters, a broader European approach has been followed. Secondly, European political and military events with an impact on the history of the Low Countries have also been selected. At the end of each year relevant publications that were published during that year are listed. Finally, by clicking on underlined placenames you can see a map of the Low Countries showing the location of that place.
