The period between 1025 and 1150 was a time of creativity and new beginnings in monastic life. Robert of La Chaise-Dieu and Stephen of Obazine established two very successful monastic families in the neighboring regions of the Auvergne and Limousin respectively. La Chaise-Dieu became the head of a vast Benedictine congregation; Obazine had a number of dependencies. With them it joined the Cistercian Order in 1147. The saintly lives of these two founders, recounted by near contemporaries and here translated into English for the first time, unfolded against a backdrop of political unrest and lawlessness. While devoting themselves to monastic life according to the Rule of St. Benedict, these communities served the poor and uprooted. Both reformer monks are models and inspiration for our era, which too calls for creativity and new beginnings. "This volume offers translations of the twelfth-century Latin vitae of four monks of the Monastery of Savigny: Abbot Vitalis, Abbot Godfrey, Peter of Avranches, and Blessed Hamo. Founded in 1113 by Vitalis of Mortain, an influential hermit-preacher, Savigny expanded to a congregation of thirty monasteries under his successor Godfrey (1122-1138). In 1147, the entire congregation joined the Cistercian Order. Around 1172, two monks of Savigny, Peter of Avranches and Hamo, friends but very different personalities, died. Their stories were told in two further vitae.The vitae of these four men exemplify the variety of people and movements found in the monastic ferment of the twelfth century. "--

L'ecole positiviste qui voulut, avec raison, souvent réagir contre cette littérature trop facilement apologiste l'écarta parce qu'elle la croyait inutile et même dangereuse. Les érudits de cette école - souvent des clercs - qui malgré tout s'y intéressèrent, n'en rentirent que les cadres institutionels et une échelle chronologique, résultats aussi indispensables qu'insuffisants puisqu'ils en négligeaient l'apport psychologique. il est donc indispensable de relire ces oeuvres hagiographiques afin de ne négliger aucun de leurs aspects. Vécurent, à la fin du XIe et au début du XIIe siècle en terre limousine, quatre ermites dont la biographie de bon aloi fut écrite à la géneration qui suivit leur mort. Ces documents permettent de connaître à la fois l'orginalité de chacun d'eux et de préciser les traits communs de ce vaste mouvement.
