2nd ed. + the 1st to contain the Vitae. Most of Thomas's
shorter works were written to guide novices. On the

humility, withdrawl from the world, prayer meditation
+ intense study of religious works, all in the persuit
of a life in imitation of Christ.
- A very important ed. which, after an introduction by
Pinckheimer is dedicated to Petrus Danhaussev. There then
follows the Imitatio libri IV, a life of Geert Grota,
Florent Radewijns' Liber de humilitate, Gerson's de
meditatione cordis, etc.
