Abstract

Stephen Langton (c.1228), later Archbishop of Canterbury, was a prominent master of theology, belonging to the first generation of scholars working at the faculty of theology of the nascent University of Paris. The Quaestiones Theologiae constitute his chief speculative work. Book III, volume 1, offers a critical edition of 24 disputed questions on Christology and faith. Each question is accompanied by a critical apparatus and source notes. The edition is preceded by an extensive analysis of Langton's views. The volume also contains an important supplement to the study of the whole manuscript tradition of Langton's Quaestiones Theologiae and offers the first general stemma codicum of the Quaestiones.

Abstract

Étienne Langton est probablement un homme-clé dans l’histoire du Moyen Âge. Son implication politique à la tête de l’Église d’Angleterre, en tant qu’archevêque de Canterbury, est bien connue, de même que son rôle dans la promulgation de la Magna Carta, qui s’efforce de trouver une solution aux crises qui secouent le pays. Cependant, tout en proposant des aperçus novateurs sur l’action politique d’Étienne Langton, la plus grande partie des études recueillies dans ce volume examinent les œuvres de celui qui était considéré comme l’un des principaux maîtres de son temps (il a enseigné à Paris durant plus de deux décennies). Il a en effet brillamment illustré les trois volets de l’enseignement des sciences sacrées, tels que les définit Pierre le Chantre, lire, disputer, prêcher. Lire, c’est étudier l’Écriture sainte; Étienne Langton a commenté la quasi-totalité des livres bibliques, en sachant à la fois recueillir toute la tradition qui le précède et ouvrir des voies nouvelles: le point est fait ici sur son herméneutique et sur ses méthodes d’exégèse, avec des études sur des livres bibliques précis, mais aussi sur son commentaire d’un texte majeur de la génération précédente, l’Histoire scolastique de Pierre le Mangeur. Disputer, c’est discuter des thèmes doctrinaux; il s’agit d’un travail théologique, avant même que la théologie ne soit définie comme une science à part entière et Étienne Langton illustre les genres principaux de la «somme» et de la «question», en mettant au service de ses analyses ses compétences particulières en matière de sciences du langage. Enfin, Étienne Langton a laissé un nombre impressionnant de sermons, dont la richesse thématique est grande et qui fournissent également des éléments précieux sur l’état de l’Église. À la charnière du xiie et du xiiie siècle, Étienne Langton pose les bases de ce que sera la culture universitaire du xiiie siècle et apparaît ainsi comme un auteur à la fois important et attachant.

Abstract

In the theological landscape of the later twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, Peter Comestor's Historia scholastica stands out as a conspicuous yet strangely overlooked landmark. Like the Sentences of Peter Lombard, the History towers over the early scholastic period, and it was the extraordinary success of these twin towers that ensured the joint ascendancy of the reputations of the two masters. Indeed, we find one medieval writer after another testifying to the greatness of the man whose nickname had become synonymous with a voracious appetite for knowledge, and the encyclopedic work whose extraordinary dissemination and influence over several centuries made it the medieval popular Bible. Based on wide and insightful reading of the manuscripts and printed texts not only of Peter Comestor but also of his master, Peter Lombard, and his student, Stephen Langton, this study offers a persuasive new argument about the genesis and formation of the Historia scholastica. At the same time it harnesses new evidence from biblical glosses and from Langton's lecture courses to analyze the development and reception of the History at Paris in the decades between the 1160s and the 1190s. In the course of this analysis, the History is revealed as a living, prototypically scholastic text, changing constantly at the hands of the magistri who, in adding to and altering the text, readily and anonymously placed their stamp on Comestor's masterwork even as they used it in their teaching. That the History proved so malleable is a testament to Comestor's genius, for he invented a novel method for introducing the Bible to students. Unlike the Gloss, the History presented just the historical/literal tradition and did so in a format that offered students both the scriptural text and the tradition of literal glosses in a single, unified historical narrative. Additionally, Comestor chose a felicitous narrative structure for the History, organizing its chapters into discrete topics that could be easily adapted to a master's individual courses. By reorganizing biblical history in cogent fashion, and by establishing the narrative coherence of the salvific events related in the Old and New Testaments, Comestor charted a course in scholastic biblical education that was as fresh as it was to prove durable.

Abstract

In historical research, Stephen Langton is primarily known as a Parisian master of theology. This biography is dedicated to Langton’s works as archbishop of Canterbury (1207-1228). His pontificate coincided with a period of political crisis in England, most notably the conflicts leading to the Magna Carta and its aftermath. This study sets out to show how Langton actively helped negotiate the Magna Carta: first, as an intercessor for the English barons and then by acting as a mediator between King John and the rebels. Furthermore, he was significantly involved in restoring the powers of kingship on the basis of the Magna Carta during the years of Henry III’s minority after the civil war. Langton's politics paint the picture of an archbishop whose policies were based on principles he had laid out in his theological writings before. Apart from Langton’s political role, this study also explores Langton’s pastoral and administrative commitments as bishop and baron. Stephen Langton ist der historischen Forschung in erster Linie als Pariser Magister der Theologie bekannt. Die Biographie widmet sich nun seinem Wirken als Erzbischof von Canterbury (1207-1228). Sein Pontifikat fiel in eine krisenhafte Periode der englischen Geschichte, die insbesondere vom Kampf um die Magna Carta geprägt war. Die Studie zeigt anschaulich, wie der Erzbischof Langton zunächst als Fürsprecher der englischen Barone, später als Vermittler zwischen König Johann Ohneland und den Rebellen maßgeblich zur Entstehung der Magna Carta beitrug und während der Minderjährigkeit Heinrichs III. half, die Königsherrschaft nach dem Bürgerkrieg in den Grenzen der Magna Carta wiederzuerrichten. Seine Politikgestaltung war dabei geprägt von politischen Grundsätzen, die er zuvor als Theologe formuliert hatte. Neben seinem politischen Engagement nimmt die detaillierte Untersuchung auch seine pastoralen und administrativen Verpflichtungen als Bischof und Baron in den Blick.
