‎Fontevraud : 1101-2001. Fontevraud : a la fois monastere et congregation, communaute mixte ou, par la singuliere volonte du fondateur, les hommes en ce temps feodal etaient soumis au pouvoir des femmes. Celebrer le neuvieme centenaire de la fondation de Robert d'Arbrissel s'imposait ; ce qui fut fait du 13 au 16 decembre 2001, dans l?enceinte meme de la somptueuse abbaye ligerienne. Le present volume temoigne de ces denses journees d?etude ; il integre aussi des contributions supplementaires, pour gagner encore en richesse et en coherence. Volontairement deroutant, il nous entraine d'abord bien loin du Val de Loire, dans les solitudes boisees des Apennins, ou le ressourcement monastique surgi du haut Moyen Age inaugure ce Moyen Age que nous disons central. Les organisateurs scientifiques de la rencontre n'ont en effet pas souhaite la focaliser d?emblee sur l'originalite de Fontevraud et les etranges comportements de son fondateur. Ils ont au contraire voulu donner a lire l'accident de 1101 dans le vaste elan qui ouvre une ere nouvelle pour la Chretiente et pour notre monde en ce qu'il en procede : cette reforme de l'Eglise qu'on dit "gregorienne", qui repense en fait toute l?architecture ecclesiale et sociale, des plus hauts aux plus infimes pouvoirs, des institutions aux individus et du sacre au profane.

‎Fictions of the Inner Life. Religious Literature and Formation of the Self in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2004 Hardback, X+264 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503515144.‎

‎Interiorization and a trend towards a consideration of the nature of personal experience have long been recognized as important elements in the changing landscape of the religious culture of the eleventh and twelfth centuries. The homo interior is at the centre of the religious writings of that time, and the 'inner man' is a pivotal concept for making sense of the literature of religious formation. Monastic writers try to provide their readers with a 'script' to enact in themselves, in order to form their inner self, as the way to ascend to the knowledge of God. Interiority, however, is not a straightforward aspect of human existence with an unchanging meaning. The notion as it is used by medieval monastic authors gives expression to a specific understanding of what a human being was thought to be, quite different from later self-perceptions. Because of this difference, when they write 'histories of the self' historians and philosophers often pass over the Middle Ages. On the other hand, in histories of mysticism the twelfth century is often read through the lens of later mysticism. This book explores the notion of interiority via four influential authors of the eleventh and twelfth centuries, and the way in which notions about interiority function in their pedagogy. The concepts governing how the homo interior is fashioned are developed within age-old monastic and theological traditions. Medieval ideas about man as imago Dei, monastic reading culture and biblical exegesis are only a few of the elements of these traditions. The choice of authors has been guided by the wish to encompass and highlight various aspects of the eleventh- and twelfth-century notions of 'inner life': monastic and eremitical tradition in Peter Damian, theological-anthropological concepts in Hugh of Saint-Victor, the importance of exegetical procedures in Richard of Saint-Victor, and the role of experience in William of Saint-Thierry. These authors illustrate what was then conceptually possible when it came to thinking about the inner life. Their notions of the inner self are an intriguing part of a continuing history of conceptions of the self and of how it may be fashioned. Languages : English. ‎

‎Office of the Holy Trinity at Saint Martial de Limoges during the Eleventh Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, lxxiv + 131 pages, Size:210 x 297 mm, Illustrations:16 tables b/w., 68 musical examples, Languages: English, Latin. ISBN 9782503574561.‎

‎Summary The Holy Trinity forms a cornerstone of Christian belief, and references to it abound in the liturgy. Every Psalm ends with the invocation of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost in the Doxology supplied as the final verse. But around the turn of the tenth century, clerics decided to devote the first Sunday after Pentecost to the veneration of the Trinity. They created a new liturgy for the day, and evidence suggests that Stephen, Bishop of Li ge (? 920) revised an earlier form of the Office into the version that saw wide dissemination in the Latin West from the end of the tenth century. The abbey of Saint Martial in Limoges exhibited considerable enthusiasm for the feast and its Office beginning in the early eleventh century. Its scriptorium prepared no fewer than five copies of the Office, including four fully neumed versions between ca. 1010 and 1050, including the earliest extant transcribable copy with music in the hand of Ad mar de Chabannes, musician, scribe, homilist and historian. This edition presents a critical text of the Office as it was practised at Saint Martial during the first half of the eleventh century, beginning with Ad mar's version, but also considering the other witnesses from the abbey. It includes full critical and explanatory commentary with an Introduction that discusses the role of Stephen of Li ge in the authorship of the Office, the witnesses from Saint Martial and their relationship to other early witnesses of the Office, and its musical and literary style. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction with discussion of the contribution of Bishop Stephen of Li ge to the authorship of the Office, the witnesses, liturgical considerations, editorial principles and the musical styles of the melodies as transmitted at Saint Martial. The edition itself, with comprehensive commentary. Appendix with liturgical lections from Matins. Indices.‎

‎Vigilemus et Oremus'. The Theological Significance of 'Keeping Vigil' in Rome from the Fourth to the Eighth Centuries‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 411 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:94 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503590882.‎

‎Summary Christians have observed vigils in both East and West from earliest times. In the broad liturgical tradition of Christianity, the idea of keeping vigil appears to manifest the Church's eschatological nature. Documentary evidence from the earliest centuries reveals that some Christians kept a night watch at the graves of martyrs and other heroes of the faith as to anticipate that dawn when the rising Sun of Justice would return in fulfilment of his promise. Eventually, vigils appear not just for Easter, Pentecost and saints' days, but also for Christmas, the dedication of a church building, and on Saturday evening of the uniquely Roman quarterly Ember Weeks. Liturgical sources of the sixth, seventh, and eighth centuries reveal that such practices became relatively standardized with the assignment of specific Mass texts and scriptural readings, yet we know very little about the precise elements which comprised a vigil liturgy and of their theological significance. At the same time these vigils were so important that they attracted to themselves the celebration of major sacramental liturgies during them. Hence, the Paschal Vigil, which existed for centuries as a vigil liturgy of scriptural readings and prayers gradually became the setting for the annual baptismal celebration. This book examines the nature of Roman vigil liturgies in the early centuries of Christianity to unravel the most primitive structure of keeping vigil and to provide a better understanding of the Paschal Vigil, which Augustine of Hippo affirms as the 'mother of all vigils.'‎

‎Carmelite Liturgy and Spiritual Identity The Choir Books of Krakow,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2009 Hardback, XVI+524 p., 18 b/w ill., 30 b/w tables, 42 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503517148.‎

‎This book discusses the significance of the Carmelite liturgy as practised in the Krakow convent over a period of some four hundred years. Specifically, it examines the liturgical contents of five medieval Carmelite choir books from the Krakow convent and another choir book from this collection which is now in Wroclaw, and discusses their contents (especially their significant feasts), in terms of the Carmelite order's historical self-understanding and established liturgical tradition. Carmelite Liturgy and Spiritual Identity outlines the role of liturgy in the life of the Krakow convent and in relationship to the apostolic activity of these mendicant friars. It argues that the order's unique liturgical tradition, one which remained distinctive even after the Council of Trent, was crucial to their self-understanding. It also articulates how the liturgical practices of the Krakow Carmelites made a significant contribution to the spiritual life of the city and its people. Languages : English, Latin, French. ‎

‎Regular Canons in the Medieval British Isles,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2012 Hardback, XVIII+514 p., 48 b/w ill., 3 b/w tables, 6 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503532486.‎

‎This international and interdisciplinary collection of essays discusses the regular canons in the medieval British Isles from their emergence in the twelfth century to the end of the monastic period in the sixteenth century. Of all the new monastic and religious groups to settle in the British Isles in the course of the twelfth century the regular canons were the most prolific. At the heart of their existence was the vita apostolica, but even more than other such groups the regular canons became involved in active spiritual care of their communities. Perhaps as a result of this feature they also enjoyed sustained support from founders, patrons and benefactors, and new foundations continued to be made long after the main force of the expansion of the monastic orders had declined. This interdisciplinary volume brings together scholars from Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England who work on aspects of the history, culture, art history and archaeology of the regular canons in the medieval British Isles. Between them, the chapters of this book consider the regular canons in their wider historical and historiographical context, assessing their role in the religious, social, cultural, economic and political world of the medieval British Isles, and introducing new and recent research on this important religious group.

‎deux vies de Robert d'Arbrissel, fondateur de Fontevraud. Legendes, ecrits et temoignages. The Two Lives of Robert of Arbrissel, Founder of Fontevraud. Legends, Writings, and Testimonies,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2007 Paperback, 772 p., 20 b/w ill. + 3 colour ill., 210 x 270 mm. ISBN 9782503524191.‎

‎The multifaceted Robert of Arbrissel (ca. 1045-1116) is best remembered as the founder of Fontevraud, a monastery of men and women under the direction of an abbess. A restless nonconformist, Robert was both famous and infamous in his own lifetime and has been a subject of debate ever since. In this book an international team of scholars - Jacques Dalarun, Genevieve Giordanengo, Armelle Le Huerou, Jean Longere, Dominique Poirel, and Bruce L. Venarde - present all known medieval sources concerning Robert of Arbrissel. The authors have created critical editions of materials including hagiography, correspondence, statutes, charters, and various short texts in verse and prose illustrating Robert's life and memory. To facilitate broad access to these materials, the entire dossier is translated into French and English. The authors' purpose, then, is not to offer the last word on Robert of Arbrissel, but to make available in one volume the materials that will promote further research and new interpretations of this controversial medieval Christian. Fils de pretre, cure du village breton d'Arbrissel, archipretre du diocese de Rennes, ermite en foret de Craon, engage dans la fondation de la communaute de chanoines de La Roe, predicateur itinerant, Robert d'Arbrissel est surtout celebre pour avoir fonde a Fontevraud, en 1101, un monastere d'hommes et de femmes dont il decida, en 1115, de confier la direction a une abbesse. Ce personnage exceptionnel, symbole conteste de la reforme societale et ecclesiale du tournant des xie et xiie siecles, a ete l'objet des plus vifs debats historiographiques. Pourtant, les sources qui nous informent de son parcours n'etaient pour la plupart connues, sur des bases incertaines, que par des editions du xviie siecles et elles n'avaient jamais ete assemblees en un volume. Reparties en trois sections - Legendes, Ecrits, Temoignages -, toutes les pieces repertoriees sur Robert d'Arbrissel sont ici presentees, editees, annotees et simultanement traduites en francais et en anglais : ses deux Vies, l'une due a Baudri de Bourgueil, l'autre au frere Andre, et le bref miracle de Rouen ; les statuts originaux qu'il edicta pour Fontevraud, son exhortation a la comtesse Ermengarde de Bretagne, les chartes qui furent redigees en son nom ; les lettres critiques que Marbode de Rennes et Geoffroy de Vendome lui adresserent, le poeme que lui dedia Galon de Leon apres sa mort, les nombreuses mentions qui temoignent de sa vie puis de son souvenir. Suit la bibliographie internationale des etudes qui lui furent consacrees. Les auteurs du present volume de la collection Disciplina monastica - Jacques Dalarun, Genevieve Giordanengo, Armelle Le Huerou, Jean Longere, Dominique Poirel, Bruce L. Venarde - n'ont pas l'ambition de produire une nouvelle monographie sur le fondateur de Fontevraud, ni d'ecrire le fin mot de cette histoire. Par ce recueil aussi exhaustif que possible, passe au crible de l'erudition critique, concu et realise dans une perspective resolument internationale, ils esperent offrir a chacun l'occasion de renouveler, sur des bases solides, la connaissance et la comprehension de Robert d'Arbrissel ; un homme que ses contemporains ont admire, aime, parfois desapprouve, mais qui ne les laissa jamais indifferents.
