Regarded as the first work of Gothic art, St-Denis experienced an outburst of artistic creativity under the direction of Abbot Suger (1122- 1151). Although scholars have traditionally seen the monastery as an embodiment of Pseudo-Dionysian light mysticism and the anagogical function of art, they have never resolved the contradiction between Suger's recognized lack of innovation and systematic arrangement in his writings and the highly original, organized character of his art program. Here Conrad Rudolph reanalyzes the evidence of Pseudo-Dionysian influence and Suger's direct role in the program by focusing on the increasing social pressures of artistic asceticism--which claimed that art was a distraction to the monk and was only to be used for instruction of the spiritually illiterate. Rudolph shows that Suger's attempt at a middle ground reform in which art was justified as a spiritual aid to the litteratus or choir monk explains the obscurity, theological complexity, and use of allegory found throughout the program, especially in the famous windows of the east end. With the help of Hugh of St-Victor, an outside adviser, Suger based his defense of monastic art on Augustinian exegetical thought and ultimately fell back upon art's traditional meditative, not anagogical, function. Examining Suger's writings, Rudolph argues that it was not Pseudo-Dionysian but rather Augustinian influence that led to the creation of Gothic architecture.

La consécration en 1144 de la basilique de Saint-Denis par l’abbé Suger inaugure l’art gothique, dont la naissance fut longtemps expliquée par l’histoire des formes et des techniques: grâce à diverses découvertes architecturales, le nouveau style se serait peu à peu détaché du roman. La collaboration entre six historiens de l’art et de la pensée conduit à repenser cette explication. D’abord, l’art gothique apparaît bien moins comme la continuation du roman que comme le renouvellement d’un art paléochrétien, lequel était d’ailleurs bien présent dans la basilique présugérienne. Ensuite, le nouveau style est un art à la fois total et cohérent: dès Saint-Denis, l’architecture, la sculpture, le vitrail et les ornamenta ecclesiae sont intégrés dans un programme unifié qui ne saurait s’expliquer sans une étroite collaboration entre le commanditaire Suger et son maître d’œuvre anonyme. Tout ceci conduit à scruter la personnalité intellectuelle de l’abbé Suger: les sources littéraires de ses écrits attestent une familiarité avec la poésie paléochrétienne, tandis que leur tonalité théologique et spirituelle invite à explorer le jeu des relations avec l’école de Saint-Victor. Celle-ci se distingue par la place originale que font Hugues et Richard à l’architecture, soit comme technique, soit comme métaphore de la théologie ou de la vie spirituelle, et par une doctrine dont les thèmes favoris s’accordent de façon singulière avec les tendances profondes du nouveau style. En définitive, malgré son sobriquet de «gothique» dont on entendait flétrir au XVIe s. tout ce qui s’écarte de l’Antiquité, l’art nouveau, porté par le projet de Suger et la pensée humaniste des Victorins, doit être considéré comme un art de Renaissance.
