Description

John of Rupescissa's Vade Mecum in Tribulacione is a rare 14th-century eschatological manual composed in December 1356 as a guide for the thirteen years of catastrophic tribulation preceding Christ's anticipated Thousand-Year Reign in 1370. This scholarly Routledge edition presents a fascinating historical document designed to provide righteous Christians with practical and spiritual guidance for surviving end-times turmoil. The text combines fervent calls for clerical reform with detailed instructions on recognising the envoys of Satan, including the Western and Eastern Antichrists, whilst also explaining the role of Christ's warriors, the papal restorer, and his secular ally. Originally crafted during a period of intense religious anxiety and institutional critique, the Vade Mecum offers modern readers invaluable insight into medieval apocalyptic thought, ecclesiastical reform movements, and the spiritual anxieties of 14th-century Christendom. This Routledge publication preserves an important primary source for understanding medieval eschatology and religious practice.
