This article contains the first edition of three recently discovered unique Middle Dutch texts of the flagellants' ritual which took place in 1349. These are a liturgy, a song in praise of the Virgin Mary and a sermon, handed down on a scroll dating from the middle of the fourteenth century. It is likely that this scroll was carried along in flagellants' processions and was used by the precentor. The texts are published in a critical edition, all three are supplied with an introduction, an explanation of words and a commentary. The appendixes contain the diplomatic editions of the three texts, together with corresponding passages from German, French and Dutch parallel texts.

In 1658 Francis Xavier was chosen for patron saint of the Jesuit mission in the Dutch Republic. In this article the spread of the reputation and cult of Saint Francis Xavier is described. Successively information is provided on the presence of relics in the northern Netherlands; on the number of publications devoted to him; on his appearance in historical documents and in literary texts like poems, hymns, plays and novels; and finally on artistic products like paintings, engravings, statues and liturgical silverware. Through it all it becomes clear that for two centuries Francis Xavier was a popular saint, and even more than Ignatius of Loyola, in the Dutch Republic where Jesuits were unwanted persons.

The fourth, originally third book of the De Imitatione Christi, entitled Devota exhortatio ad sacram communionem, soon became a controversial work in the tradition. Just like the Blessed Sacrament itself, this book has its attractive as well as terrifying elements. Because of this reason it was often transmitted separately from the three other books of the De Imitatione Christi, or even left out of editions. In this contribution several aspects repeatedly discussed in the Devota exhortatio are analyzed and situated within the general context of late medieval piety. Subjects discussed include the dignity of the communicant, the Holy Communion as a conjunction with Christ, the rewards of the Holy Communion and the special status of the priest as celebrant.

Recently Th. Klausmann has introduced the term orthopractical literature for manuals in which detailed instructions are given for the daily practices in a spiritually oriented life in accordance with Roman Catholic orthodoxy. Much attention is paid to meditation in these manuals, and in the sections on meditation the reading rules for lectio diuina are closely followed. In this contribution, it is argued that at least some chapters of Thomas a Kempis' De Imitatione Christi can be interpreted as a detailed elaboration of the cursory instructions on meditation in the orthopractical manuals.

Alijt Bake (1415-t 1455), prioress of the Augustinian Convent Galilea in Ghent, recorded the story of her spiritual life around 1451. In a climate of criticism and renewal in matters of church and religion as well as of education, Alijt Bake proclaimed her own key role as a 'reformer of the inner life'; her propensity to piety and literature is clearly expressed in her writings. This paper proposes to investigate the origins of Bake's self-confidence as a woman in matters spiritual. The driving power of her reformist activities as a leader, teacher and author extended to not only her own community but also far beyond the walls of the Windesheim cloister. Bake stands in the context of the Devotio moderns, with its constant attention for religious and moral education and its special preference for writing as a method for individual and common spiritual development. She appears as a well educated religious woman at the top of the Windesheim hierarchy, who uses the writing-process to articulate and develop her spiritual thoughts and mystical experiences and - as a professional, devout leader of her convent - to instruct her 'beloved children' in God's will. Bake's autobiographical writings also show that her career evinces more than a little mistrust from the authority of Windesheim as such. As a mystic writer, Bake believes that good works of faith spring from freedom of the will and from the grace of God, and that nothing is meritorious and agreeable to Him which is done merely through obligation. To those who do what is in their power, she claims in her autobiographical writings, God will not deny His grace. She therefore argues for a new kind of religious life mediated through literary examples as realistic as possible, and for a conscious and consistent formulation of the individual personality. The latter is coloured by a critical refusal of traditional dogmas of knowledge, while also offering a critique of established notions of the vita religiosa. Following her own path of faith unavoidably brought Alijt Bake in conflict with the male-dominated and hierarchical monastic world of Windesheim. Bake's unyielding struggle for her particular mission as a 'reformer of the inner life', which would include overturning traditional convictions on the subservient position of females in the church, ended tragically with her persecution and early death in 1455.
