Ludo Milis
Religion, Culture, and Mentalities in the Medieval Low Countries. Selected Essays
Edited by Jeroen Deploige, Martine De Reu, Walter Simons, and Steven Vanderputten
With the collaboration of Laura Galoppini, Luc Jocqué, Ann Kelders, and Véronique Lambert
This collection contains eleven essays published between 1969 and 1990. Most of them appeared in Dutch or French and have now been translated into English; two essays previously published in English were newly edited. All provide unique insight in the major themes of Milis's work: the religious history of the Low Countries during the early and high Middle Ages, as well as the problem of religious conversion and persuasion; the rise of regular canons in the eleventh and twelfth centuries (also the subject of his doctoral dissertation on the order of Arrouaise, published in 1969); the uses of power and ideology; and the history of French Flanders. All bear witness to Milis's inspiring ability to ask original, probing questions and to write historical syntheses accessible to a wide audience.
The collection is presented to Ludo Milis by his students on the occasion of his retirement and his sixty-fifth birthday.
