  Justus Lipsius - LoveToKnow 1911
JUSTUS LIPSIUS (1547-1606), the Latinized name of Joest (Juste or Josse) Lips, Belgian scholar, born on the,8th of October (15th of November, according to Amiel) 1547 at Overyssche, a small village in Brabant, near Brussels.
Sent early to the Jesuit college in Cologne, he was removed at the age of sixteen to the university of Louvain by his parents, who feared that he might be induced to become a member of the Society of Jesus.
He then returned to Louvian, but was soon driven by the Civil War to take refuge in Antwerp, where he received, in 1579, a call to the newly founded university of Leiden, as professor of history.

 Justus Lipsius (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
The humanist and classical scholar Justus Lipsius (Joost Lips) (1547–1606), described by his admiring correspondent Michel de Montaigne as one of the most learned men of his day (Essays II.12), was the founding father of Neostoicism, a key component of European thought in the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
Lipsius was already engaged in the emendation and critical examination of Latin texts, especially of Cicero, Propertius and Varro; and, as early as 1566, he put together three books of Variae lectiones (“Variant Readings”), which were published in 1569 at Antwerp.
Lipsius drew on these thinkers not only because of the historical or philosophical information which they provided on Stoic philosophers and their doctrines but also to demonstrate the uninterrupted interest in Stoic philosophy of later centuries.

Thou seest then, Lipsius, that inconstancy is the companion of opinion and that the property of it is to be soon changed, and to wish that undone, which a little before it caused to be done.
Moreover, Lipsius, you are greatly deceived in describing this country of ours: for you tie it very narrowly to that native soil where we were born and had our education, with other like frivolous allegations, from whence you labor in vain to pick out natural causes of our affection toward her.

In its scene, the scholar, philosopher, and controversialist Justus Lipsius appears seated and teaching with two of his mature students, Johannes Woverius and Philip Rubens, at his side.
This is easily the fullest and most rewarding study of Lipsius, and at the same time an important contribution to the interpretation of Rubens.
Lipsius was fond of creating a magisterial household, or contubernium, where teacher and students lived on intimate terms of daily contact; we can reconstruct the daily round, monastic in its austerity but humanistic in its content (readings from the classics, exercises in Latin composition, etc.), of the typical Lipsius household.
