= Brunet V, p.241f; Ebert 20722 ("ein sehr seltenes Werk"). De Wind p.322: "Het doel van dit werk, waaraan veel geleerdheid met weinig oordeel is te koste gelegd, is om overal Celten en Belgen te vinden. De bewijzen vindt hij in zijne taalkunde. In het Paradijs spraken Adam en Eva Celtisch, dat is Duitsch en Vlaamsch (...) het werk [bevat] veel wetenswaardigs, doch als begraven in eenen vloed van nuttelooze geleerdheid." Still of interest for the copious (nearly 400p.), bizarre indexes (proper names, geographical names, subjects and etymology). A famous attempt of the author to prove that Hebrews, Egyptians, Greeks, Etruscans and Romans all spoke Celtic (= German and Flemish).
