| Summary: | The Modern Devotion was a religious movement originating from the Low Countries in the late Middle Ages. The type of piety represented by the many men and women who constituted this movement has left its mark on the European mind. Within the framework of a specific worldview, they developed a Christian philosophy of life through which they molded the structure of individual behavior and, consequently, of society as a whole. Their efforts were challenged by the new spiritual forces of humanism and Reformation and they also had to compete with the philosophical and theological worldview of late scholasticism. The position of the Modern Devotion movement in the interaction between these spiritual forces is revealed by tracing its characteristic features, particularly those connected with its views on religious and ideological education. |
