| Sammanfattning: | At the end of the Middle Ages, several Benedictine abbeys were reformed in reaction to the excesses and failures of the previous centuries. At Saint-Jacques in Liège, Abbot Renier de Sainte-Marguerite (1408–1436) and, to a lesser extent, his immediate successor Roger de Bloemendael (1436–1471) were the key figures in this renewal. They were supported by some of their monks, including Corneille de Zantvliet. Between 1427 and 1443 at least, Corneille de Zantvliet distinguished himself as a copyist and expanded the monastery library with at least 78 texts and opuscules, many of which were dedicated to issues of devotion, asceticism, religious life, and monastic morality. Sent to Stavelot around 1447 to promote observance, Corneille took with him the majority of these texts, which he had previously bound into seven separate volumes. Six of them ended up in Stavelot, where they remained throughout the early modern era. The aim of this article is to shed light on the ways in which the written word was used as part of any reform work, and to highlight the transfers of texts that may have resulted from this process. |
