"The present work tries to set the Victorine theological anthropology in the context
of doctrinal history. In the twelfth century, the canons of Saint-Victor formed the
sinle largest community of theologians with the most extensive literary legacy. But
is there a distinctive, characteristically Victorine model of theological anthropology?
The first half of the present volume investigates this question through a close reading
of the works of Hugh, Richard, Walter and Achard, and concludes with a positive answer.
In a period of theological experimentation Hugh of Saint-Victor elaborated, through
selectively reading and altering Patristic sources, his own model of theological anthropology.
Its principles and concepts also appear in the spiritual works of other Victorine
authors and set the Victorines apart from other spiritualities of the period. The
second half of the work investigates the immediate, thirteenth-century reception of
this model. That scholastic authors held Hugh and Richard in high regard is well-known,
but a closer investigation reveals a different picture. The testimony of various theological
sources (from Sentences glosses and commentaries, to spiritual works) shows that the
thirteenth-century theologians have already found elements of the Victorine anthropology
either untenable or unintelligible, as their reaction varies from explicit rejection
to selective reading and reinterpretation. This transition from acceptable and inspirative
to problematic occurred in less than a century's time, and still influences the way
Victorine texts are read. Thus, considering a twelfth-century model, with all of its
necessary distortions, in thirteenth-century interpretations, may give us a better
understanding of the limitations and potentials of the Victorian theology"
