I obtained my Ph.D. at the University of Groningen (NL), and presently I teach history and religion at the College of Charleston, SC (USA). My interests are primarily in the history of medieval exegesis, focussing on the twelfth-fourteenth centuries. I edited Andrew of St Victor's commentary on Samuel and Kings for the Corpus Christianorum, continuatio mediaevalis. Other areas of expertise include the Avignon papacy, scholastic theology (I did some reaserch on the conflict about the Beatific Vision years ago)., and Jewish-Christian relations in the Middle Ages. I am currently doing research on developments in exegesis in the schools, from c. 1150 - 1300. Dear Frans, I am currently doing some work on Gerson's critique of Ruusbroec, in which he (Gerson) makes a number of references to earlier disputes about the Beatific Vision (especially to what he takes to be condemnations of certain positions adopted by unnamed parties at the Council of Vienne). All this is beyond my range of knowledge, and I wondered if you have any leads that might be useful to me, either in your own work on this, or in that of others. I'd be grateful for anything useful, and can be got off-list at [log in to unmask] Many thanks, Denys Turner University of Birmingham (England) ------------------------------------------------------- Frans van Liere College of Charleston 0 Bee Street Charleston SC 29424 Charleston SC 29403 tel.
