Poul Helgesen was a Danish Carmelite, a humanist and historian. Helgesen was a mendicant monk who at first supported Christian II and the Lutheran reform movement, but later broke with both and wrote warnings against the tyrannical king and the Lutheran preachers.
Poul Helgesen is read about 2 times a day, in 7 languages.
