Abstract

Dit boek gaat over de spirituele theologie en psychologie van een monnik, die leefde in de twaalfde eeuw, geboren in 1110 als zoon van een priester, en uiteindelijk stierf als abt van een van de grootste abdijen van de nieuwe cisterciënzer orde in Yorkshire, Rievaulx. Aelerd schreef een aantal historische werken en biografieën, maar is vooral bekend door zijn spirituele geschriften, zoals "De spiegel van de liefde" en "Over de geestelijke vriendschap". In zijn werk toont hij zich een meester in het geestelijk leven en een meester in taalgebruik. In tegenstelling tot de monniken van de Egyptische woestijn, wees hij op het belang van emotie en vriendschap. Dit laatste bepaalt mede de actualiteitswaarde van Aelerds werk voor onze tijd, met zijn groeiende aandacht voor gevoelens en emotionele drijfveren.

Abstract

The first critical edition of Aelred of Rievaulx's historical and hagiographical works. Aelred’s historical and hagiographical production, which makes him a rather unique figure in the Cistercian panorama of the first generation, is the subject of increasing attention, hampered thus far by the lack of a reliable critical edition of these works. Here for the first time these texts are edited from a collation of the earlier and best manuscripts, accompanied by a biblical and a critical apparatus, each with a concise introduction devoted to the illustration of the manuscript tradition and to the historical and rhetorical background of these texts.

Abstract

In addition to being a prolific spiritual writer and the abbot of the premier Cistercian monastery in northern England, Aelred of Rievaulx somehow found the time and the stamina to travel extensively throughout the Anglo-Norman realm, acting as a mediator, a problem solver, and an adviser to kings. His career spanned the troubled years of the civil war between King Stephen and the Empress Matilda and reached its zenith during the early years of the reign of Henry II. This work focuses on Aelred's public career as revealed in his own historical writing as well as in chronicle references and other documents. This aspect of his life has been previously neglected because his personal letters have been lost and his biographer, Walter Daniel, concentrated on his life within the monastery.
