Hello, I'm Hugo Grotius and this is my personal page. I'm a Dutch lawyer and
|
|
diplomat with experience from academia and government, having published a large
|
|
number of books on international law, sometimes even being called the "father"
|
|
of this field of study. I have experience working as a diplomat from serving as
|
|
the Swedish Ambassdor to France. For a more comprehensive list of my experience,
|
|
see the [Resume]({{< ref "resume.md" >}}) tab.
|
|
|
|
After having been wrongfully convicted of treason in the Netherlands and
|
|
being handed a life sentence, I managed to escape with the help of my dear
|
|
wife Maria. She brought a chest of books to the prison where I was incarcerated
|
|
(nothing out of the ordinary since I am an avid reader) which was then
|
|
transported back out of the prison, with the the books replaced by yours truly!
|
|
|
|
I have a small gallery of works of art depicting me under the [Gallery]({{< ref "hugo-gallery.md" >}}) tab.
|
|
I regularly post lorem ipsum om my [Blog]({{< ref "blog/_index.md" >}}), and
|
|
there are also examples of how to include images in the theme of the site.
|
|
If you want to get in touch, you can find my social media links and email
|
|
address under the [Contact]({{< ref "contact.md" >}}) tab.
