Three Pseudo-Bernardine Works EPUB
Edited by Ann Astell, Joseph Wawrykow
Part of the Cistercian Studies Series series
EPUB
Description
During the Silver Age of the Cistercians (the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries), pseudepigraphical compositions bearing the nameBernardflourished. Important for the history of monasticism and, more broadly, of Christian spiritual formation and practice, these little-studied writings interpret, appropriate, transform, and apply Saint Bernard of Clairvauxs authentic works, transmitting them to new audiences.
Under the direction of Ann Astell and Joseph Wawrykow, with the assistance of Thomas Clemmons, a talented team of young scholars from the University of Notre Dame (theCatena Scholarium) offers here a complete translation of three of these Pseudo-Bernardine essays, providing notes that identify sources, clarify allusions, highlight rhetorical strategies, and demonstrate overall a fascinating, intertextual complexity. The Bernard who emerges from these texts speaks with many voices to herald a living, Bernardine tradition.
