Zusammenfassung: | Toward the condemnation of Eckhart's doctrines -- The impact of the condemnation of Eckhart's doctrines in the fourteenth century Brabant -- Ruusbroec's criticism of mystical heresies -- Eckhart's understanding of the praxis of ecclesiastical life -- Eckhart's understanding of God and creation -- Eckhart's understanding of the mystical union -- Ruusbroec's understanding of the praxis of ecclesiastical life -- Ruusbroec's understanding of God and creation -- Ruusbroec's understanding of the mystical union. In this thorough textual, historical, and doctrinal study the author seeks to clarify the relationship between two prominent mystics of the fourteenth century: Meister Eckhart, the German Dominican, and Jan van Ruusbroec, the Brabantine Augustinian. Special attention is paid to Ruusbroecs criticism of mystical tenets circulating in Brabant at that time which were both textually and doctrinally related to Eckharts condemned propositions in the papal bull 'In agro dominico'. This fact implies that Ruusbroec was confronted with the impact of the condemnation of Eckharts doctrines on the people in Brabant. Situating Ruusbroecs life and works within the aftermath of Eckharts arrival, the author elucidates Ruusbroecs position regarding the relevant mystical themes in the later Middle Ages, and follows a process of critical inheritance of mystical tradition from Eckhart to Ruusbroec |
