Aloïs Jacques Victor Marie Simon (1897–1964) was a Belgian historian, professor at the University Faculty of Saint-Louis in Brussels, with a particular interest in 19th-century Belgian Church history from the perspective of Church–State relations and international diplomacy.[1]
Lifeedit
Simon was born in Antwerp on 25 November 1897. He received his education at the Institut Sainte-Marie, Schaerbeek, and the Major Seminary, Mechelen. He was ordained to the priesthood on 1 January 1922, and was sent to the Catholic University of Leuven for further study in history.[1] He graduated from the university in 1924. Up until the Second World War he was involved in secondary education, as a teacher and later the head of the Institut Saint-Boniface, Ixelles. In 1942 he was asked to take over the teaching of undergraduate history at the Institut Saint-Louis. This was an emergency appointment, but he remained in the position for the next 20 years.[1] On 2 May 1960 he was elected as a corresponding member of the Royal Academy of Science, Letters and Fine Arts of Belgium.[2]
He died in Brussels on 7 December 1964.[1] A memorial volume was published in 1975, L'Église et l'État à l'époque contemporaine: Mélanges dédiés à la mémoire de Mgr Aloïs Simon, edited by Gaston Braive and Jacques Lory.
