The Liturgical Sermons : The Reading-Cluny Collection, 1 of 2; Sermons 85-133 EPUB
by Aelred of Rievaulx
Part of the Cistercian Fathers Series series
EPUB
Description
Aelred (11101167) served Rievaulx Abbey, the second Cistercian monastery in England, for twenty years as abbot. During his abbacy he wrote thirteen treatises, some offering spiritual guidance and others seeking to advise King Henry II. He also wrote thirty-one sermons as a commentary on Isaiah 1316 and 182 surviving liturgical sermons, mostly addressed to his monks.
This volume contains the first half of Aelreds ninety-eight liturgical sermons from the Reading-Cluny collection, Sermons 85 through 133. For the most part, the collection follows the liturgical year, beginning in this volume with three sermons for Advent and ending with five for Pentecost and three for the Solemnity of the Holy Trinity. Sermons 134 through 182, from the Nativity of John the Baptist (June 24) through the Feast of All Saints, will appear in CF 87. These sermons appear to contain evidence of Aelreds editorial additions to the autograph of the sermons, as he added selections from patristic and medieval authors within the sermons and between them.
