Jan Van Ruysbroeck Knihy
Jan van Ruusbroec, přezdívaný „Zázračný“, je považován za jednoho z největších mystiků jižních Nizozemí. Jeho díla, původně sepsaná ve středonizozemštině, byla brzy přeložena do latiny. Ruusbroec se rozhodl pro život v ústraní, což vyvrcholilo založením kláštera v Groenendaalu. Navzdory své skromné roli se stal ústřední postavou komunity díky své mimořádné mystické vizi. Jeho odkaz jako jednoho z nejvýznamnějších světových mystiků přetrvává dodnes.
