Cornelius Jansen

Cornelius Jansen (1585-1638) was a Dutch theologian and bishop of Ypres, born in Louvain. He studied the works of Augustine, and wrote a book titled "Augustinus" in exposition of that great Father's doctrine of grace, which was published after his death, and which gave occasion to a great controversy between his followers, in France especially, and the Jesuits.
