Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Founders of the New Devotion: Being the Lives of Gerard Groote, Florentius Radewin and Their Followers Considering the wide fame of Thomas a Kempis as the reputed author of "The Imitation of Christ" it is surprising that no English translation of the "Lives of Gerard Groote and his followers" has been published hitherto. The Brotherhood of the Common Life to which a Kempis belonged owed its foundation to Groote and his pupil Florentius, and since that Brotherhood is referred to by the author himself as "The New Devotion," and Groote is called "Nostrae devotionis fundator," I have thought myself justified in giving to this translation the title which it bears, although the editio princeps gives no general title to the Lives. The version here presented does not claim to be savagely literal, but I hope that I have not misrepresented the author in any material point, and that the translation faithfully renders the meaning of the original Latin.
