The article offers the first detailed study of a hitherto underappreciated narrative of the early years of Latin Settlement in Outremer following the First Crusade (1095–99), the Secunda pars historiae Iherosolimitane, often attributed to Lisiard of Tours. Taking inspiration from methodological developments in the field of “Crusade Studies” that have emphasized the narratives relating to this movement as crucial “cultural artifacts” of Latin Christian society, it seeks to demonstrate the valuable light this text sheds on twelfth-century perceptions of the Latin East, the importance of crusading to local identities, reactions to crusading failures, and international monastic networks. After establishing that the Secunda historia should be situated in northeastern France in the early 1150s, and linked in particular to the Premonstratensian order and a church council held at Laon Cathedral in March 1150, it is argued that the text served two key purposes. First, that after the failed Second Crusade (1146–49), efforts to explain defeat necessitated the incorporation of the Latin East’s history, rather than merely the First Crusade (the influence of which hung heavily over contemporary crusade promotion), as a site of divine punishment and reward; and second, that these same narratorial motives were harnessed to validate and promote further crusading.

This article studies the images and the Latin and French texts in a Book of Hours of Premonstratensian Use held at Memorial University Libraries. While the Annunciation scene in Books of Hours has been the subject of numerous studies, the Pentecost scene representing Mary reading to the Apostles has received limited attention in research. The article assesses the meaning of these images and their possible connection to reading practices in late medieval Europe.

Al van in de vroegste periode hebben christenen hun geloof kunstig uitgebeeld in fresco's en iconen. Die traditie heeft zich ondanks de kritiek van iconoclasten en beeldenstormers doorgezet tot in de volksdevotie. Sanctjes en devotieprenten worden vanaf de 16e eeuw populair. Antwerpen was toen het wereldcentrum van de grafiek. Daar kreeg de iconografie van Norbertus en tal van ordesheiligen en -zaligen vorm. In dit mooi geïllustreerde boek beschrijft Jozef Van Osta de geschiedenis van devotieprentjes in de norbertijnenorde. Hij heeft hierbij aandacht voor het gebruik en de diepere betekenis van de prentjes, alsook voor de grote verscheidenheid van dit religieus en cultureel erfgoed
