= On this famous mystification De Troeyer I, p.267-278: "Daargelaten de kwaadwillige bedoeling vormen de Historie en de Sermoenen van Broeder Cornelis evenwel een historisch monument van waarde, omdat de samensteller die een tijdgenoot [van Corn. Adriaensz. Brouwer, 1521-1581] was ze "geënt heeft (...) op historische feiten en toestanden" (...). Tot in het begin van de achttiende eeuw kende het werk talrijke herdrukken en in zekere anti-roomse kringen werd het met graagte gelezen. Wat de inhoud betreft kunnen we ons voorlopig beperken tot deze formulering: heftige uitvallen tegen de zestiende-eeuwse hervormingsgezinden en hun leer. De vorm: ontstellend brutaal, ontstichtend, vaak zelfs scabreus". Written in common, often very violent en coarse Flemish, the book was particularly notorious for the descriptions of Broer Cornelis' "secret penitence", flagellation and more. The first edition was published 1569/ 1578 (part 2). Waller 724; De Vries 420; Pisanus Fraxi, vol. 2, p.212-224; Hayn/ Got. I, p.23/24.
