    William Of Saint-Thierry

    • 1st Life Of Bernard Of Clairvaux

      $29.95

      The First Life of Bernard of Clairvaux, traditionally known as the Vita Prima, originated to prepare the case for canonization of Bernard, first abbot of Clairvaux. The work was begun by William of Saint-Thierry, continued by Arnold of Bonneval, and completed by Geoffrey of Auxerre.

      When the initial case put forth for Bernard was rejected by Innocent II, Geoffrey undertook a revision of the original vita (Recension A) and submitted another version (Recension B) to Pope Alexander III, who declared Bernard a saint in 1174. This work emphasizes the deep love in which Bernard was held during his life by his monks and the people of France and Italy as well as his role as a powerful public figure.

      This book contains the first English translation of Recension B, drawn from what is apparently the only manuscript of the work found today in a Cistercian monastery, Mount Saint Bernard Abbey. The introduction begins with the story of how this manuscript came to Mount Saint Bernard, so fixing this translation of the Vita prima within Cistercian life from the twelfth century to today.

    • Enigma Of Faith

      $21.95

      Women have lived the cistercian life almost as long as have men. Cistercian abbots founded some houses of nuns, the General Chapter authorized some, while trying to stem the tide. Most ‘cistercian’ communities of women adopted the habit and the usages of the White Monks without being juridically incorporated into the Order. These fascinating studies trace cistercian nuns from their twelfth-century beginnings to the modern day.

    • Nature And Dignity Of Love

      $21.95

      William of Saint Thierry wrote down his reflections on the nature and greatness of love during the second decade of the twelfth century, while he was abbot of the benedictine monastery of St Thierry, near Rheims. His insight, drawn from Scripture and the Church Fathers, shaped his own spiritual journey and his earthly pilgrimage from the schools to the abbey and finally to cistercian life at Signy in the Ardennes. Love, he writes, is a force which draws human beings towards the God who is love. In love we were created ‘to the image and likeness of God’…
