The present publication was preceded by: 'Corpusvorming van Ruusbroecs werken', in: Ons Geestelijk Erf 72 (1998), pp. 3-53; 'Fragment van een onbekend Ruusbroec-verzamelhandschrift', in: Ons Geestelijk Erf 72 (1998), pp. 164-172; 'Een studiereis naar Groenendaal. De Nacomelinc en de totstandkoming van Ruusbroechandschrift D', in: Ons Geestelijk Erf 72 (1998), pp. 221-245. This contribution deals with the table of contents, the pro- and epilogues, the head-ings, and the running titles in the manuscript usually referred to as 'A'. MS A is the surviving part of the once bipartite Groenendaal codex, which contained all of Ruusbroec's works, except for his letters, and was written ca. 1365. Of particular interest is the table of contents in MS A, which not only provides information concerning the treatises, but also determines the periods in which Ruusbroec 'published' them. As we will show, MS F transmits a copy of the table of contents in accordance with the lost part of the Groenendaal codex. Thus it is possible to make a reconstruction of the original table, that enables us to distinguish three periods in Ruusboec's life to which the publication of his works can be related, i.e.: [1] as a secular priest in Brussels (1317-43), [2] as a hennit in the woods near this town (1343-50), and, finally, [3] as the prior of the Groenendaal monastery (1350-81). The reconstruction, however, poses a major problem for the chronology of Ruusbroec's works. According to the reconstructed table of contents of the Groenendaal codex, Die geestelijke brulocht saw the light when Ruusbroec was the prior of the Groenendaal monastery, whereas the communis opinio among Ruusbroec experts to date has been that it belongs to the Brussels' period. There is, however, much more evidence dating from the fourteenth century, which shows that the Brulocht has to be postdated. Most likely, it was written in","PeriodicalId":39580,"journal":{"name":"Ons Geestelijk Erf","volume":"75 1","pages":"69-101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68168285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of course, Ruusbroec was not a scholastic theologian but that does not mean that he was not engaging in theology. The A. argued hat a Franciscan inspiration could be found in his trinitarian theology ; the analysis of the relation between the nothingness out of which we have been created, and sin ; the more harmonious understanding of the human will in relation to God's grace ; his elaborate descriptions of the humanity and sufferings of our Lord ; his reference to the immaculate conception of our Lady. He was also aware of the Franciscan-Dominican debate on the nature of the beatific vision and the last judgement.

Guido De Baere's lecture given on the same occasion, has also been published in this journal: 'De editie van Ruusbroecs Opera Omnia in wording. Bij het verschijnen van Vanden XII beghinen' (74 (2000), p. 255-63). Vanden XII beghinen is the last treatise Ruusbroec completed, and it was probably not written before 1365. Modern readers tend to feel somewhat shocked by the flaws in the execution of this work: lack of structure, repetitions, and strange omissions, to name the main objections. It has even been suggested that Ruusbroec was not himself responsible for the composition of the Beghinen, but rather his confreres in the Monastery of Groenendaal. In the present article we defend the position that this is a work by Ruusbroec, despite its shortcomings, possibly due to his advanced age (Ruusbroec was already in his seventies). It is interesting to see, however, that the Beghinen is closely related to the battle against heresies amongst beguines and begards in the third quarter of the fourteenth century. Ruusbroec defends in this treatise an orthodox approach to mysticism and appeals to the great tradition of the thirteenth century. It seems rather paradoxical that Ruusbroec was, during his old age and especially after his death, accused of having held heterodox opinions. This shows that in the second half of the fourteenth century, the tide was against mysticism, even within a strictly orthodox framework.","PeriodicalId":39580,"journal":{"name":"Ons Geestelijk Erf","volume":"75 1","pages":"116-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68168866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kienhorst et M. Kors en cette meme revue (cf. 72 (1998) p. 3-53), nous aimerions suggerer que le 'Groenendaal codex original' (oorspronkelijke Groenendaalse verzamelhandschrift) contenant les oeuvres de Ruusbroec a ete compose de suite apres sa visite aux chartreux d'Herinnes et avant qu'il ait termine le Boecsken, donc vers 1361. Un argument assez convaincant nous semble: que Ruusbroec fut grandement etonne de trouver son Rijcke chez les chartreux. C'etait son premier livre d'il y avait presque trente ans et il avait defendu a son secretaire de le preter a qui que ce soit. Il est donc peu probable qu'avant cette visite on ait deja commence le Groenendaal codex', ou le Rijcke figure en tete. Dans ce codex, la version du Rijcke n'etait d'ailleurs pas de premiere qualite: les manuscrits G et F, qui en dependent, en temoignent encore. Cela nous parait un signe que l'original ne se trouvait plus a Groenendaal et que tres probablement on a du chercher un exemplaire a l'exterieur. Il se peut qu'a Groenendaal on s'est enfin realise de ne pas disposer de tous les traites du Maitre et que la composition d'un codex s'imposait. En outre, grâce a l'analyse codicologique du manuscrit A par H. Kienhorst en M. Kors, on sait maintenant que le Boecsken n'a pas fait partie du premier codex, mais qu'il a pu y etre insere (sans faire partie de la reliure originale). Beaucoup plus tard (entre 1370 et 1380), on s'est vu oblige de defaire la reliure originale et de creer deux tomes pour y integrer le Boecsken ainsi que le dernier traite du Maitre, XII Beghinen, tout en sacrifiant l'ordre chronologique de son oeuvre. Les auteurs de l'article cite ci-dessus proposent de designer desormais ces tomes comme 'Groenendaal codex elargi' (uitgebreide Groenendaalse verzamelhandschrift). Le premier de ces deux tomes nous est reste, a savoir le manuscrit A qui contient Tabernakel, Spieghel et Trappen.","PeriodicalId":39580,"journal":{"name":"Ons Geestelijk Erf","volume":"74 1","pages":"193-196"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68167419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within the province of Overijssel this convent is the first one to be excavated outside of the major cities alongside the IJssel river. It started circa 1380 as a beguines' house and adopted the Third Rule of St Francis early in the fifteenth century. The second half of the fifteenth century it flourished. From 1505 onwards the inhabitants moved to a manor outside the city, called Singraven, but war circumstances forced them to return to their former place in 1515. The convent continued its existence till 1650, but the last half century it was seriously in decline. Moreover, the tertiaries were replaced by clarisses, a process which caused many difficulties. After the last nuns had departed for Germany, the convent buildings were used inter alia to house a school and a textile factory. In 1870 they were demolished. The excavation brought to light no less than seven separate buildings. The two most important ones were the so-called beguines' house and the church. The first one measured 16 x 6 meter; it is the house in which the community started its life around 1380. Originally it was completely free standing, later it was incorporated in the complex. The church was enlarged at least once, to reach a length of 37 meter, the width being 9 meter. This enlargement can be identified with a building campaign in 1465, known from written sources. During the excavation, nine skeletons were discovered in the cloister, seventy more inhumations came to light in the choir of the church and on the cemetery to the south of it. Many of these seventy burials concerned male persons, which proves that the women's convent was a favourite burial place for the lay people of the city of Oldenzaal. Among the means of existence linen weaving, the making of products of tin and lead and dairy farming could be traced.
