He was a son of Jacob Steenhauwers and Margaretha Vordeels, and made his profession in the Augustine monastery 'Marientroon' near Grobbendonk in the region of Herenthals, was appointed abbot (Coenobiarcha) of the priory of Corsendonk in 1551. He not only was a wise and amiable man, and a prudent administrator, but he was also considered an excellent poet, a conscientious historian and a great scholar. He saved the autograph of the 'Imitatio Christi' of Thomas a Kempis from oblivion. His best known work 'Corsendonca' describes the history of the former Augustine priory of Corsendonk, south of Turnhout. (NNBW 2,787/88) The priory was part of the chapter of Windesheim, and was founded in 1395 by Maria of Gelre, also known as Maria of Brabant, daughter of Duke Jan III of Brabant. The monastery was closed down by the emperor Joseph II in 1785; the closing became definitive in 1795. (See Wikipedia 'Corsendonk (Priorij) The history of Corsendonk, continued after Latomus' death by prior Hoybergius till 1642, fills the first 38 pages of the book. The rest consists of Hoybergius' notes. The priory was in the 17th and 18th century known for its scriptorium and Latin tuition. § Johannes Latomus was also an excellent Neolatin poet. Hofman Peerlkamp praises his poetry for its elegance: 'Carmina certe, quibus Elogia Joviani ornavit, elegantia, amoenitate, et acumine plerumque excellunt. Nec deest nitor et facilitas orationis'. (Hofman Peerlkamp, 'Liber de vita doctrina et facultate Nederlandicorum qui carmina latina composuerunt', Haarlem 1888, p. 118/19) § The 'Corsendonca' of Johannes Latomus Bergizomius is in ADB (Algemeine Deutsch Biographie, vol.18, p. 4) erroneously attributed to his namesake and contemporary, the German historian and theologian Johannes Latomus, 1524-1600, deacon of the Frankfurter 'Chorherrenstift St. Bartholomäi'. He wrote about the history of Frankfurt) (Provenance: On the front flyleaf: 'L. Mostelmans') (Collation: *8, A-N8) (Photographs on request)
