Imitation Of Christ, by Thomas A. Kempis.

1 answer



Thomas à Kempis was a 15th-century German-Dutch monk who is traditionally credited with writing "The Imitation of Christ," a devotional book that emphasizes the importance of following Christ's teachings. Although some believe that Thomas à Kempis authored the book, there is also scholarly debate suggesting it may have been written by multiple authors or influenced by other works.

Thomas Becket was not called Thomas à Becket during his own lifetime. He was called Thomas à Becket, by people who wrote about him much later, possibly in imitation of the name Thomas à Kempis, who was another medieval monk. Also Thomas Becket was commonly known as "Thomas à Becket", although this form seems not to have been contemporaneous, but a post-Reformation adornment, possibly in imitation ofThomas à Kempis.

I believe you are thinking of Thomas a Becket. Rev. Becket was assassinated by a shock squad of troops from King Henry. This is different than an execution like Mary, Queen of Scots. The Becket homicide happened inside a Church- and a play was done on it called Murder in the Cathedral. The assassins wore hooded knights helmets and naturally had the visors down when doing this horrible deed. As far as I know one of the few major crimes committed in a church- but not by Churchmen, in modern times. Things along these lines may have happened with the Godless Communists during the Revolution. ( Russian)

The above is all wrong.... it has nothing to do with Thomas a Kempis.

THOMAS À KEMPIS (Thomas of Kempen) (1380-1471) was a German Augustinian monk. His birth name was Thomas Hemerken but his birth place was Kempen, and the name à Kempis was given to him when he entered the priesthood.

He was ordained in the Canons Regular of St. Augustine in 1413. Twelve years later he was elected to the position of sub-prior (prior's assistant) in the monastery of Mount St. Agnes and in that capacity was responsible for training those who were aspiring to be priests.

He was denied canonization as a saint because when his body was dug up splinters were found embedded under his fingernails (Robert Wilkins, A History of Man's Obsessions and Fears). Apparently he was accidently buried alive, and the canonization authorities determined that a true saint wouldn't fight death in such a manner.

Now there's a question! As a young man Vincent trained as a Protestant evangelist in the poorest areas of London and Belgium. He is supposd to have lost his religion in the Borinage coalmining district. However, we don't really know what his spiritual path was; in the last months he painted relgious themes. At one time he carried around Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress (Puritan) and Thomas a Kempis' Imitation of Christ (Catholic). He is generally thought of as a theosophist and a humanist, but it seems really that Vincent followed no path but his own. His brother Theo refused to marry in church.
