Introduction -- B. Ratio editionis -- C. Editions -- D. Concluding remarks."John of Rupescissa's Vade mecum in tribulacione was meant as an eschatological manual for the thirteen catastrophic years between its composition in December 1356 and the thousand-year reign of Christ expected to begin in 1370. This manual was intended to give righteous Christians practical and spiritual advice on how to survive this period of tribulation. Matthias Kaup's study provides the first annotated critical edition equipped with an English translation. It inducts in the manual's contents, places them in the context of Rupescissa's work and medieval prophetic literature, investigates important aspects of its reception and clarifies the relationships between its different versions."--Provided by publisher.Church, faith, and culture in the Medieval West.End of the worldHistory of doctrinesMiddle Ages, 600-1500EschatologyEarly works to 1800Apocalyptic literatureEarly works to 1800End of the worldHistory of doctrinesEschatologyApocalyptic literature236/.9Johannesde Rupescissa,approximately 1300-approximately 1365,Johannesde Rupescissa,approximately 1300-approximately 1365.910215Johannesde Rupescissa,approximately 1300-approximately 1365.910215Johannesde Rupescissa,approximately 1300-approximately 1365.910215Johannesde Rupescissa,approximately 1300-approximately 1365.910215Kaup Matthias258426MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910154674203321John of Rupescissa's Vade mecum in tribulacione (1356)2037384UNINA
