  Jansen, Cornelis. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
In 1630, Jansen became professor at Louvain, and in 1636 bishop of Ypres.
Jansenism, however, came into conflict with the church for its predestinarianism, for its discouragement of frequent communion for the faithful, and for its attack on the Jesuits and the new casuistry, which the Jansenists thought was demoralizing the confessional.
Jansenism survived as a tendency within the church, especially in France, taking the form usually of extreme scruples with regard to communion.

Besides, "Jansenism" was beginning to serve as a label for rather divergent tendencies, not all of which deserved equal reprobation.
JANSENISM IN HOLLAND AND THE SCHISM OF UTRECHT
On French soil the remains of Jansenism were not completely extinguished by the French Revolution, but survived in some remarkable personalities, such as the constitutional Bishop Grégoire, and in some religious congregations, as the Sisters of St. Martha, who did not return in a body to Catholic truth and unity until 1847.

 Cornelius Jansen at opensource encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Cornelius Jansen (October 28, 1585 — May 6, 1638), bishop of Ypres, and father of the religious revival known as Jansenism, was born of humble Catholic parentage at Accoy in the province of Utrecht in the Netherlands.
In the hope of repressing their encroachments, Jansen was sent twice to Madrid, in 1624 and 1626; the second time he narrowly escaped the Inquisition.
Antipathy to the Jesuits brought Jansen no nearer Protestantism; on the contrary, he yearned to beat these by their own weapons, chiefly by showing them that Catholics could interpret the Bible in a manner quite as mystical and pietistic as theirs.

Cornelius Otto Jansen (1585-1638), called Cornelius Jansénius, criticised the protestant reformation but advocated a doctrine of predestination within the Catholic church which was not dissimilar to that preached by Luther and Calvin.
Jansen spent much of his life studying the works of St Augustine whose writing was concerned to combat the Pelagian heresy that all men can achieve salvation entirely by their own merits.
Jansen's studies were published posthumously by his friends as Augustinus in 1640, a work which emphasised Augustine's belief that mankind only achieves salvation through the grace of Christ, and this grace is accorded only to the elect few whilst the mass are condemned to perdition.

 Jansenism
As Jansenism was elaborated in France, especially by Jansen's friend Jean Duvergier de Hauranne, the abbot of Saint - Cyran, and by the latter's protege Antoine Arnauld, it also entailed an austere form of piety and a rigorously puritanical morality.

 Jansenism   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Jansenism, a theological doctrine which urged greater personal holiness, espoused predestination and was linked to some extent with GALLICANISM.
Supported by the writings of St Augustine, it was synthesized by Cornelius Jansen (1585-1638), Roman Catholic bishop of Ypres, in his posthumous Augustinus (1640, condemned by Pope Urban VIII, 1642).
At odds with Rome and particularly critical of the Jesuits, Jansenism was, after 1650, the object of a series of condemnations which shook the church of France.

 Jansenism (This Rock: June 1994)
When Jansenism was defeated, it was to be a victory not only for an orthodox doctrine of grace, but also for the entire structure of authority in the Church.
Precipitating the battle was the presentation in 1649 of five propositions, implicitly attributed to Jansen, for examination by the theology faculty at the Sorbonne.
Jansenism, save for some small secret groups, was eradicated in France by the mid-1700s and died in Italy half a century later.

Bishop of Ypres, and father of the religious revival known as Jansenism, born of humble Catholic parentage at Accoy in the province of Utrecht on the 28th of October 1585.
Jansen ended by attaching himself strongly to the latter party, and presently made a momentous friendship with a like-minded fellow- tudent, Du Vergier de Hauranne, afterwards abbot of Saint Cyran.
However, he took an active part in the university's resistance to the Jesuits; for these had established a theological school of their own in Louvain, which was proving a formidable rival to the official faculty of divinity.

In his most important work Augustinus, published posthumously in 1640, Jansen promulgated a theology based upon Augustine's doctrine of predestination.

 Theological Controversies and Studies: Jansenism @ ELCore.Net
In 1617 the two friends separated, Jansen returning to Louvain, where he was appointed to a chair of scriptural exegesis, and du Verger to Paris, where he took up his residence though he held at the same time the commendatory abbacy of St. Cyran.
Like Baius Jansen refused to recognise that in the condition of innocence, in which man was constituted before the Fall, he was endowed with numerous gifts and graces, that were pure gifts of God in no way due to human nature.
Owing to the intervention of the Parliament of Paris in favour of the Jansenists the propositions were referred to the Assembly of the Clergy (1650), but the vast body of the bishops considered that it was a question on which a decision should be sought from Rome.

 Jansenism and Quietism
Jansenism as a heresy has to be looked at in its historical context.
The reason for the spread of the teachings, which we shall consider in a moment, was that Jansen's close friend and former fellow student, the Abbot of St. Cyran, had passed on the erroneous teaching to the religious community at Port Royal just outside Paris which was presided over by Mother Angelique Arnoud.
According to Jansen, in man's fallen state he was no longer free but a slave of sin, forever dragged along by earthly delights, and all that he did led him to the abyss of corruption.
