Dear friends,

Mathias Van Guitt (Maison a vapeur) is said to have been a professor at
the Museum of Rotterdam. I am a bit puzzled by this qualification, since
in the Netherlands a professorate is connected with a university. I know
that in some countries the function of director of a museum is on the same
level as a professorate. Was this the case in France in 1880?

Thanks,
Garmt.

Chers amis,
Mathias Van Guitt (Maison a vapeur) a ete, selon Verne, professeur au
Museum de Rotterdam. Cela me trouble un peu, parce que, aux Pays-Bas, un
professorat est associe avec une Universite. Je sais que dans certains
pays la fonction de directeur d'un musee est au meme niveau qu'un
professorat. Etait-ce la situation en France, 1880 aussi?
Merci,
Garmt.
